April Update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay. I'm back. So much to talk about, right guys?

First off. Does anyone have a solution for extremely puffy eyes in the morning? No matter how much sleep I get, my eyes are suuuuuper puffy every single morning. I even bought this product that claims "late nights will be your little secret" or something ridiculous like that, and I'm pretty sure it does absolutely nothing. You roll it on under your eyes and it has caffeine in it which is supposed to reduce the puff. But it's all just a show. So if anyone has any tips (that DON'T involve laying down with cucumber slices or cold tea bags for 10 minutes, because I don't have 10 extra minutes to lay there) let me know.

I really dislike it when people yell on the phone. I just experienced a yeller on the phone, and the best part was that she works for THE SAME COMPANY AS ME but was treating me like the enemy. How about, even if you disagree with someone, you keep your voice at the same decibel while you talk about it? Got that? Deal.

Okay, what else. I've been doing this "Booty Camp Fitness" for the past few weeks. It's a women's-only class designed to "whip you into shape", as the website claims. The classes are brutally hard, but really enjoyable. We do constant push ups, burpies, jumping jacks, and other torturous activities. I wish I could do it 5 nights a week instead of two. Seriously. It feels SO GOOD at the end when you're done. I really don't think it's whipped me into shape though. Maybe just made me realize how out of shape I truly am. But I think I can do more push ups now than when I started.

I heard on the radio this morning that Toronto Blue Jays baseball hats are like, THE trend in NYC right now. Very weird.

Lately I've been craving a DQ blizzard like nobody's business. Problem is, aside from the 600+ useless calories I'd be ingesting, I'm seriously lactose intolerant. So even if I had a blizzard, I'd be suffering from extreme stomach pain for a day afterwards, so it's probably not worth it. Someone needs to invent lactose-free blizzards. Currently the only lactose-free ice cream available in stores is ALSO sugar-free. Seriously, did you need to combine these two things? It's completely gross. I had a sugar-free, lactose-free ice cream sandwich and the pseudo-chocolate cookie parts tasted like cardboard and dirt mixed. The ice cream itself wasn't bad. So - just inject some cookie dough and we're good to go. Ok, ice cream companies?

I'm currently reading a book called "The Book of Awesome" and I like it. It makes me really happy. You should google it and enjoy yourself.
