SunnyDee's Diary

Newfie world is a much happier place. :)
Speaking of which... George Street Festival in 8 days!!!!!!!!!!! :jump:
I'm sure I explained this before, but I can't seem to find the post. I think it may have been in Mal's diary, actually. Anyway, George Street Festival is an annual festival here in St. John's that lasts for a week. There's no cover to get on the street before 7:00 and after 7:00 it's $10 to get on the street and you can go to all the bars. There are a few big bands and a bunch of local/semi-local bands throughout the week, but most people don't really care about that. lol To most Newfies, it's just an excuse to get drunk for a week. Keep in mind, as I explained once before as well, that George Street is a street that consists of nothing but bars. It has more bars per square foot than any street in North America. It's also closed to traffic at all times, except between 8:00 am-12:00 noon. But closed completely to trafiic at ALL times during the festival because cars wouldn't have a prayer of getting through. :) Anyway, I'm really excited about the festival. :D It starts next Thursday. Sloan will be opening the party, so I'll be going to hear them. Gotta work the next morning, so it'll be a light night. ;) And I'm gonna miss Friday night because of our camping, but we decided to come back Saturday night so we can go down on George. :)

Oh Dee, you were interval training, yi-ah yi-ah! Great work, that shit is hard, most people HATE doing that--esp on a treadmill!! :)

Flat-out is used here in Cali--same with "all-out" but "hardcore" more and probably "fuckin' hella *doing this and that*" gets used a lot, ha ha ha!

That festival sounds spectacular. I wanna come! I betcha there'll be lots of hot guys to look at. Is Matt coming?
 
Haha. I think it's funny that "flat-out" is used in some places in the states because I've said it certain places here in Canada and people are like "What??" Funny.
Yes, there will be tons of hot guys to look at and dance with and such. :) It's always a good time. Sadly, Matt won't be there. :( He will be returning on August 31. That still seems so far away!! But I'm sure it'll go fast, considering how fast the past few months have gone.
 
But of course! If there was some rule in place about not being allowed to flirt, I would have been kicked to the curb a looooong time ago. :p But so would he 'cause he's a big flirt too.
 
Hey Sunnydee!! Your George Street Festival sounds fun! Bars and dancing are always so fun. I need to go out and do that. I haven't been out drinking and dancing in awhile. I want to go out to the gay bar soon. I'm thinking maybe Aug. or Sept. I'm getting more and more confident and comfortable with my "new" body everyday so, by then I figure I might be ready. Can you believe that I have been out for a year and a half and I still haven't been to the gay bars/clubs.... I did go to pride this year though :)

Keep up on that running. I'm still trying to run 3 miles as many days as I can per week... Hoping I will eventually be able to bump it up to 4.

Take care,
Sam
 
Well good!! I'll be there with you in spirit!

To be honest, I go to the SCM Brewery and flirt with the cute farmers that show up. You gotta love farmers, they make food!!! I was talking to this one boy who said he had 15 dozen eggs to wash (chicken shit gets on there). I did the math and told him he had 180 eggs to wash. It bummed him out, poor thing!!! lol!

What? :eek2: You have to get your ass out! The gay bars rock. There are no official gay bars on George Street, but a couple on the neighboring streets. One really awesome one in particular, that's open til 8 am.
I'm loving the running. Couldn't run today though because of bad tummy cramps and general crankiness. :( So I just power walked for 20 mins and then did extra weight training. Congrats on your running! You'll be running 4 in no time. :)

Maybe we'll start Jo's George Street Fest Fund and see if we can raise you enough money in one week to come party with me. :D

I do love farmers. For some reason, I'm picturing him in overalls and no shirt, with a straw hat pulled down in the front and work boots... and he's reeeeally buff and sweating just a little... and maybe nibbling on a piece of straw. ;) I like your farmer. lol
 
Ok, so let's be honest. I'm PMSing bigtime and I feel so fat today. :( It's really sad. And no matter how many times I tell myself "You're wearing size 8 jeans. This is the smallest you've been in years", I'm still convinced that I'm completely fat with no muscle tone whatsoever. I feel very mushy. It's a sin. Even when my super hot coworker told me that I looked "just as beautiful as a picture" and said I had "a wonderful figure that women should envy", I just scowled at him and told him his opinion doesn't count today because he's a boy and can't possibly understand! He was trying to help (and he's usually very effective because he's so damn dashing!), but I wanted to poke him in the eye. And I had the biggest chocolate craving, so I bought a Mirage bar and ate it... then I bought a KitKat bar for when the next craving comes around. Ugh... I hate the menstrual cycle.
 
Mal's right. I apologize, but I actually laughed at the post, in empathy--been there! Will be there in the next week or so!!! Hang in there!!!
 
Thanks Sunnydee. I've just been pretty patient with myself. I know I really need to get out more. It's not even that I am shy really, because I'm not that shy. I've just been kind of self concious about how much weight I had gained. I will be going out soon though, I promise :)

Thanks on the running. I haven't been doing 3 miles the past couple of days. My legs have felt extra tired and achy. I dunno what that means, I figure I just might back off for a day or two and make sure I stretch them out really good and hopefully they will feel better.

Hope your having a great day!

-Sam

this too shall pass and you'll go back to being hot :D you are hot now by the way.. it's the mirror that's lying :D

LOL. Thanks Mal. Yeah, the mirror's a real bitch. I feel a lot better today! I only midly hated my little belly-button-area-pouch when I got out of the shower this morning! And I always dislike that, so mildly hating it is no big deal. Yesterday I was like "Whaaa! I need lipo!"

I understand. I would have laughed too, if anyone else had written it. I usually don't get that bad, but yesterday was terrible! I'll feel for you when you go through it next week!

Good! And flirt with the hottest guys in the club! And let me know all about it. ;) I've always been an outgoing & confident person but now that I've lost weight, it's that much more fun to go out. :) I'm sure you'll feel the same way.

You'd think that since I felt like a giant yesterday, I would have been repulsed by food. But no! Get this: I went to Boston Pizza for supper last night with my girlfriend and ate a mini rack of ribs with Jack Daniel's bbq sauce, garlic mashed potatoes, a slice of garlic bread, a glass of merlot, a frozen cocktail and a maple brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and caramel on top... and I felt like a million bucks afterward! Haven't even had to touch my KitKat bar yet. lol I'm not much of a "pigging-out" person (it happens very rarely), but I'm telling ya, sometimes when I'm PMSing, it just has to happen.
So the fatness factor had dissipated quite a bit and has been replaced with the cuddly factor. I missed Matt fiercely last night and still quite a bit today. I felt sad when I got in bed alone last night. Then I dreamed that he was here and was really disappointed when I woke up and he wasn't. :( But he'll be back exactly 6 weeks from yesterday! I can make it, I'm sure. :)

:rotflmao: YEAH! A million bucks!! I feel you, seriously. i know we're probably supposed to floss our meager meals, but everybody knows, sometimes you just gotta have those ribs and mashed potatos and garlic bread and Merlot and that cocktail and ice cream!! I totally feel you on that one! (Ugh except the ribs--I'll take the fried catfish!)

:( :hug2: :D
I'll be there with you, in a few weeks. We can PM each other our misery and lonliness (when it happens--we're both pretty upbeat most the time. Ugh, except me lately, what a buzzkill I am!! ;) )
 
Haha. You're no buzzkill. You're wonderful! I don't think I could visit your diary everyday if you were.

You're not a buzzkill until you're a drama queen/king. There's a difference between being honest about the pain and stress you're going through and being a downer. Maybe it makes me a bad person, but I've had to leave diaries in the past and drift off from a couple of forum relationships (not that they were significant relationships like I have with some of you guys) because of constant negativity. :( I'm pretty sure they're gone now though... haven't seen them around lately. Maybe everyone else felt the same way. When people have no kind words of encouragement or will not graciously accept my words of encouragement and completely lack the ability to put on the rose-colored glasses once in a while, I just can't be part of that. I need to have a give-and-take relationship with my friends. Otherwise, I just feel like I'm treating one of my patients! Even many of them are more giving once in a while. lol

Anyway, I didn't mean to get on a rant!
