Birthday Extravaganza: The Aftermath

So my 28th Birthday has come and gone. It was four solid days and nights of eating, boozing and socializing with almost all of my friends. Thanks to everyone who had a hand in making Birthday Extravaganza 3 highly successful. I also want to say thanks and I love you to my twin sister. It was awesome seeing you this weekend and as usual, I loved spending every minute of our joint birthdays together!

There were no major incidents this year. Well, no lesbians were sent to the hospital anyway. (Yes, at BE1 I sent a lesbian to the hospital with chest contusions. Apparently a bear hug from this bear cub is more dangerous than anyone ever knew.)

On to other news. I got a new job bitches!!! I'm OUT!!! OMG, it feels SO FUCKING GOOD to write that. I'm moving out of the financial industry to a job that is very much like social work. Without giving away to much about the new job, I'll be helping the children of low-income families. I start the new job the Monday after Thanksgiving.

It is a slightly bittersweet moment to be moving on to a new job. I have made some amazing friends at my current job and will be sad to leave them. In many ways, it really does feel like I've been parolled and I'm leaving all my bitches behind bars to finish up their time. Good luck kids and watch that soap in the shower. You know they never use lube when they fuck you!

The new job is a pay-raise, in addition to being a complete departure from anything I've done in my career thus far. I'm looking forward to the new challenges and to seeing first hand how the work I am doing benefits the lives of others. I'm sure in a year or so I'll be complaining about this new job too. Nature of the beast I guess.

Not much else is going on with me lately. I am working out with a personal trainer twice a week now. I try to go two or three more times to the gym outside of our sessions. The diet is still a struggle, but I'm on the right path toward happiness with my physical appearance. My goal right now is 20 lbs gone. I really want to look better than I ever have when we go to Australia and New Zealand next March.

I've never seriously worked-out before and never did any weight training. My body is sore in new and different places almost every day. But, like the saying goes: no pain, no gain. With BE3 behind us, I am going to tone down my social outings too. Yeah, we'll see how long that lasts! If you hear me making excuses to not go to the gym, kick me in the ass and send me packing.

you won't hear me calling to drag you out boozing during the middle of the week. remember i'm pushing 30, and i just can't bounce back like you young ones can (esp. the boozies).
