I’ve been good about gymming Thursday (did it on the way home from work) and yesterday (did it during lunch) because the freak cheeks are really inspiring that way. I also sucked down some dandelion root capsules yesterday because my Gym Trainee swears by them as a natural diuretic to debloat. She takes 1/3 the dose and pees out more water than she knew was in her. I took maximum dose (3 capsules each time) and it didn’t do squat. Either it’s not working for me, or I’m NOT bloated, which means the cheeks are here to say! Waaah!

Mr. W made my dad a tuxedo appointment with his contact for today at 6pm, and my mom and I have that bridal gown alteration appointment at 3p, so apparently my dad decided to come with my mom and me so that we’re all together and could hit both appointments as a family. My dad is gonna be sooooo bored at the bridal fitting. But maybe he could distract my mom from criticizing me too much.

Okay, I’m now off to the gym to do some massive cardio round, my parents will meet me at the bridal place at 3, we’ll all come back to my place, Mr. W will come here to pick us all up, and then it’s off to the tux fitting. I get to hand them their invites that they’re gonna hand-deliver to their friends, too. Then we can have dinner together and hopefully meet up with our realtor to talk about house-hunting for real. If you think that sounds productive, my mom has already been up for 5 hours doing tai chi and country line dancing at a local park that offers recreational classes and is now shopping at a nearby store, and my dad’s been fishing since the buttcrack of dawn.
