Such is Life

I have been so neglectful of this diary. Bad me... naughty!!!! I've been having a hard time getting adjusted this year to the heat. Funny, when I was pregnant it was no problem because I was prescribed to drink lots of water. Plus, I didn't really go outside all that much. Now, I'm getting killer headaches, totally letting myself get dehydrated, and generally not doing well with it at all. I have a 32 oz cup, though, that I'm going to fill with water here at work. I'm going to try to drink at least two of those a day. I'm going to lay off the Diet Soda and save money by only drinking water at restaurants. I'm also going to drink water instead of eating so much. That way, I just full easier and I'm not so sluggish by the end of the day. I've been having some real problems with fatigue and headaches. Yesterday I had a migrane. =-P

My memorial day weekend was ok. I went to Ren Faire (called Scarborough here) on Sunday. It was fun. But I like the one in So Cal better because there was more Shakespeare involved. Although I did get up on stage twice as an assistant. Fun! I can be such a drama geek.

I really need to get down to San Antonio to see my family. It's been way too long and my grandmother isn't doing well. She's in her 90s and her memory is going. I'm afraid if I don't get there soon, she won't remember me. Aging sucks.

I'm having a hard time with the age issue lately. Of course, I'm 2 days from my 28th birthday... so the closer I get to 30 the more I worry about that sort of thing. I've bought a lot of anti-wrinkle stuff lately. I'm tired of people guessing my age in the early 30s. My sister is in her 40s and looks 30s. She just bought her first wrinkle cream. Me... I've been buying for two years now. Ha Ha... buying... sounds like a drug.

I went to L.A. on business this time last week. I saw my best friend and got incredibly home sick. I couldn't go back, though, unless I had the income it took to live a good lifestyle. It's hard in that area to live the way you deserve. Everything is SO damned expensive. But I have grown to really miss So Cal. I had a good life there. I've had a good life here, too. But its hard not to reminese and feel sad.

All right... time to get to work. I have a busy day ahead of me. I have a meeting in two hours followed by a conference call, followed by another conference call. Such is life...
