SYMBIOSIS-RIGHT THERE.

I got my hair dyed yesterday, dark brown. It's pretty, I like it. This is the first time I've had a natural haircolor in a year.

Last week, Ben and I financed a Mac G4 computer. It's great! Coincidentally, the art department at work got shut down due to a water heater busting and flooding a good portion of the room, so I worked at home from Wednesday through the week. Fortunately, our work load was light at the time. Unfortunately, I got the flu on Thursday evening which had me up all night. I spent most of Friday sleeping.

Tonight, Ben and Amber and I are going to the pet store so Amber can get a fish. I wonder what kind she'll get...

Friday, we're going to Mom and Dad's house for dinner in celebration of Tiffany's birthday. Ben and I are debating whether or not to go to San Diego this weekend so we can meet up with Tony and Tiffany at the Wild Animal Park on Sunday. We were thinking about going to Legoland on Saturday and staying the night in a hotel. But I'm not so sure we should spend all that money right now. We'll see.

Ben ended up not having to spend the night downtown at the INS office to file his adjustment of status paperwork. It turned out that he had to mail it to that particular office. And when he did, it also turned out that the fees they had listed on the internet were incorrect. So the paperwork got returned AGAIN. It's been a couple of weeks now and nothing was returned, so it must be ok. Finally!

In the pursuit of OTR (Old Thin Rachie), I lost 3 pounds when I had the flu. I also did yoga this morning and I hope to keep doing it through the rest of the week. I have about 21 pounds more to go in the next 7 weeks. That's just 3 pounds a week! Whoo hoo! I hope I can do it. I have to be good and overcome this plateau without resorting to starvation.
