the drive home

I hate flying but airports are one of my favorite places.

This is a photo of our drive home from the airport last week.

The closest international airport is two and a half hours from our house.  It is a bit of a trek just getting there.  I miss the ten minute drive to LAX.

birthdays

ugh, so my 32nd year came and went. i'm 33. i hate it. i'm so old. scott said you are only old as you feel. yes i feel old. happy birthday to me.

in other "news" i joined a gym (finally) a few weeks ago. i needed to. i'm really fat. totally still in denial though. i pick up the same size as a few years ago and shocked when it doesn't fit. one good thing about being fat is that you don't buy clothes (cause they look awful).

oops went off on a tangent.. i gained weight even after i joined the gym. does that happen? i am five feet six inches and 150lbs. that is 12lbs more than the fattest i haver ever been.
