   I am now a size 18. I was expecting to feel really depressed about buying another size up. But I'm not.

   I was already wondering how I was going to manage to keep little Victor (not to mention, myself) cool when the weather simply won't cooperate. Well, with him coming over here, the answer was simple: air conditioning!

   Today, I'm holed up in my apartment with my friend, the a/c, and I'm not going anywhere!

~ Dogs and Cats and Horchata, Oh My!
   Also today, we visited the animal shelter. I now have Vic's carseat in my car and can take him places!

   "Lasts" always lead to new "firsts" and my next classes will be starting up soon.

   PMS is in town and she's kicking my ass. Worst of all, she's living in my head, shouting horrible/demanding things at me, such as, "You can't handle this!" and "Feed me chocolate!"
