getting sexy for the summer!

i wish i could say i have been off having some wild adventure that kept me from posting...but...ive just been working and relaxing...how is everyone?

i did manage to bring a little summer sassiness to my blog..i love the bright colors, makes me wanna go relax by a pool and sip a margarita, lol...i should have my links to all yall wonderful bloggers back up soon...

yes, i did go see the sex and the city movie and.....I LOVED IT! i had to call one of my best friends after i left the theater to tell her how much i love her...im so glad i went by myself...i went to a afternoon show and there were a only few older couples a couple gay couples in the theater..its was soo nice...everyone really got into the movie and it wasnt crowded...i was good i didnt buy any popcorn, candy or pop...i really am trying to turn this diet/exercise routine into a lifestyle...i really just sat back and enjoyed myself...i even shed a few tears...

life is good around here...i feel so positive!

my boyfriends birthday is coming up next week so i am getting set for that..gotta make a hair appointment, lol...and my eyebrows are OUT OF CONTROL! and lets just say im a couple weeks overdue for a peticure, lol...ive been getting so chill on the grooming, time to get it together ....oh and ummmm i dont think i can keep up the natural look...i really want to but with my workout schedule and my work schedule i am not finding a great deal of time to do my hair everyday..ive been combing it back and throwing a headband on...and im not a headband kinda lady...but i dont have time to get my flatiron out and go at it...plus i dont want to start putting a lot of heat on my hair..its already hot out here in the desert i dont need to add extra...so while my heart says, "Yay, natural hair," my mirror says, "Girl, go get a touch up!" and so does my reality...maybe one day...im not giving up forever!

i am going home at the end of july to see the fam...thats going to be fun...i want to look so fly! another reason to stick to the 5-6 day a week workout plan...fam hasnt seen me in a year and i want them to be wowed..yeah, i know seeing each other will be good enough but i wanna be fierce! or should i say, more fierce than i already am, lol...plus i want to hit up all my fav restuarants that arent out here...

i have been re-reading "Some Things I Never Thought I'd Do" by Pearl Cleage...i love that book..and i love that im getting back into reading...one of my first loves...i dont know why i neglected my books...that used to be my fuel...i actually learned a lot about life and myself in books...or should i say still learning...i always find something new when i open a book even if i read it a few times already....books give me a peace, i guess because im going back to one of my comfort zones...like this blog is a comfort to me...i went back and read some posts from back in the day...and i just see myself growing...

anyway...here are some questions for everyone, some things i have also been asking myself: It's six months into 2008, half the year is up. have you completed any of the goals you set for yourself at the beginning of the year? if so, what are they? if not, why? have you made any new goals? what have you learned about yourself? are you happy with your life or just content on getting by? what's on tap for the next six months?
