holiday pounds

Well, good morning, v. cute sanitation engineer! Seems so much nicer than calling lovely Monday morning vision "garbage man."

Spent v. nice Christmas day with Concerned Roommate and extended family. Nearly cried, though, in middle of enormous package opening extravaganza when there was a gift from her mother for yours truly. Sat stunned for several seconds and made v. valiant attempt not to be too affected. Was unexplainably touched.

Evening was cut short by finally-arriving snowstorm. Yours truly became designated driver. But as have much experience driving in blizzardy conditions, was happy to have the job instead of slightly intoxicated roommate. Felt v. adventurous driving home under downed powerlines. How v. thrilling.

Am desperate!

Must lose 15 pounds in five days (so as to pull of New Year's Eve get-up) and achieve clear, glowing skin (currently look like am suffering from Leprosy) in same short time period. Wonder if diet consisting of water and... water will achieve necessary results in time?

Oh god. How did this happen???
