A bunch of friends and I saw the sold out Flobots show at the Gothic, on Saturday night. It was a good time. It is fun to watch the band really make it big. Over the weekend, I heard their song on the radio twice, and heard it mentioned or in ads on 93.3 over a dozen times. The shows are still fun, but I actually had more fun when the shows were smaller and we could all be up close to the band with plenty of room to dance. Now we could try to cram in with a ton of fans uncomfortably or dance all the way in the back (which is what we ended up doing). When your that far back you just really don't get to feel as much of the energy of the crowd.
I might actually get to see them at a tiny show again sometime soon. I should be in Cali when the Flobots are playing LA, so I will be making an effort to see that show.
Well my crazy weight loss continues, but now I have to revise my thoughts that my glider caused most of the weight loss. I haven't been on the glider much lately as I have been busy, but I have lost another 5ish pounds, putting me at 124 lbs, which is really light for me, back at my HS weight. I never wanted to drop below 125 so I am on a mission to gain some of it back, preferably with some muscle, but if I just gain some flab that will work too. So I am thinking that reducing drinking was the cause of this weight loss. I have been drinking a lot less since the new year, and I guess it caused me to shed another 5ish lbs. To bad I don't feel really awesome, in fact my body has been feeling kind of crappy lately. I also have had far more allergic reactions lately than I normally have. Anyways, I have been trying to do push ups and sit ups a couple times a day just as a little break or part of my getting out of bed routine. So hopefully if I keep laying off the booze and eating healthy and working out a bit I might start to actually feel in better shape. I thought once I lost some weight I would feel like I was in better shape, but it just hasn't really changed how I have felt very much. My heart burn has been slightly better but that is about it.
Erin went back to NYC today, which is sad. We had a pretty simple, but wonderful time together for Valentine's day. Next up is her bday, and we will celebrate part of that during her Spring break. So I guess we have some more exciting times to look forward to.
Alright that counts as a short little rambling blog post... getting a few thoughts out of my head.

That's WEIRD! I think I just had a dream last night that you were in and having a bunch of your allergy problems. At any rate, if you keep losing weight and aren't feeling well, you should see the doctor and they can check for thyroid problems, etc.

yeah, maybe it is the lack of drinking, I think that is a big one -- either that, or a parasite named Henri. Either way it should equal lots of chocolate cake during spring break, maybe some sopapias tambien.
