Diet today did not go well.  We went out for meals for both lunch and dinner.  I don’t even wanna know how many calories I consumed.

One thing that we DID do today was visit our puppy.  We haven’t decided what to name him.  We got a chance to see him and now we have ABSOLUTELY no idea what to name him.  We have a couple of names in mind, but since we’re paying extra for the pedigree, we think we’re probably going to show him.  His stud fees would be higher if he’s a show dog that wins.  According to the breeder, several of the pups have grown to to be excellent show dogs.

Here’s a picture of him.  The name on the registration has to start with a “C”.  We were thinking that we should have a pretentious name on the papers and have a call name for him.  If you have any ideas, we’d be happy to take your suggestions!

He’s definitely belongs to our family, though!  As soon as we walked into the room, he woke up and the one where’s he’s having a snack–funny story:  Momma dog told him, “No!” Twice.  I was kneeling down petting one of the other puppies and he was a bit sneaky–he went underneath my feet to get to his momma.  She finally gave in to him and let him eat for a few seconds.  Sweet, sweet puppies!  We signed the contract for the little guy and gave Martina some money for the down payment.  It’s possible that he’ll be able to come home with us on the 8th.  Rob’s got a half day of work that day!  Woohoo!  I’m so excited!!  Now, if I could just figure out a name for him, I’d be set!!

Alright, I have to go for now.  I have to get Rob packed for the field.

Have a great day and enjoy the rest of your long weekend!

I just want to assure you all that I am NOT starving myself.

Happy 4th of July, by the way!

So exercise for today included:
Walking from Burger King to the movie theater to the PX back to the car.  The car was parked 1/2 mile away from the PX.  After arriving home, I used the weed eater to cut the grass (no easy task!)  We also went to the fireworks display on RamsteinAir Force base.  We stood in line for dinner for well over an hour.  They were sold out of food.  We didn’t get a chance to eat.  We watched the fireworks and walked back to the car with the dog.  We walked at least 2 miles from the hangar to where the car was parked.

I was in the ER yesterday because I fell down the stairs.  Do you know what the first question the doctor asked me was after he asked me what happened?  “Were you pushed?”  I mean what kind of FUCKED up question is that?  He implied that my husband was BEATING me!

Don’t get me wrong, my husband DOES beat me–but only at the Game of Life ®.  No, we hardly ever fight and when we do, it’s pretty mellow fights–we don’t even yell at each other!  I’ve never lived like this before.  It feels NORMAL!

Anyway, I digress.  It really bothers me that they would ever imply that my husband would ever hit or hurt me.  The next question they asked me was if I had anything to drink.  I fell down the stairs at 2 in the afternoon.  Who drinks at that hour?!  I don’t!  When I drink, which isn’t all that often, I don’t usually start until after 6–and even then, I don’t drink all that much!

oh, well…so much for my rants!

I guess I was making up for not eating enough calories yesterday.  Oh well!

Well, after 6 hours at the ER, I’m doing okay.

I fell down my stairs, banged up my hip and hurt my elbow.  I had to have 2 staples put in my right elbow.  It hurt like hell because the anesthetic didn’t take.

I’ve had 2 percocet and some other drug to help with the pain.  I can barely sit and I can’t bend my elbow.  It was everything I could do just to bend it enough for the xrays.

I’m loopy right now.  There’s no story to how I fell, not really anyway.  It’s been a bad week!  Ugh!

Okay, I’m gonna get going now.
