Major Frustration

Okay.... Im going to attempt to make this a positive sandwich so Im not to Debbie downer for everyone.
Positive: I still have a job!! Yay me!! I dont know how I still am employed but thank the Lord I am. I think its pretty much because I have taken on a bunch of work that no one else wants, so Im pretty busy. So I am not in crisis. At least for another 3 months, then Im sure we'll be back to layoffs. Awesome. Turns out the economy is real good right. now. :)
Negative: I need a new body. Seriously. People, lets just get some history here. I AM 24!! I should be able to do any physical activity I want!! But oh dont worry my knee is still giving me trouble, mostly in the morning when its cold, yeah I guess Im 72 and need Bengay. Really, I've been using Tiger Balm patches to put on my knee to warm it up before running. I smell like a old folks home. If its not my knee bothering me its the upper thigh. On the same leg. I try to go running on my lunch, usually by this time the knee is doing okay, but after running, Im still in major pain, and limping from the thigh. Like sharp pains cutting down my leg. Its real nice.
I have been trying to go to the gym in the morning so I dont have to deal with the herds of people after work (thanks a lot Gold's gym, you really didnt need 12th street) Well it rarely happens cause well, I hate mornings. To my amazement Katie was able to get me out of bed this morning and I went. Good thing I was able to run about a lap on the tread mil. Yeah. A lap. the entire time feeling as if my knee was going to explode. So I walked on a incline. Then I was going to do Body Attack. I did 15 min people. Its not even running really, but I couldnt even bend my knee or jog to the front of the class whilst pumping my fists in front of me. Am I meant to live a life where I am in constant pain while trying to do physical activity?? If so I am going to be a load by the time Im 26. Really. I dont even know what to do anymore. I NEED to loose 10 lbs. At least. I shooting for 15-20 that would be ideal, but really how in the bejesus am I supposed to accomplish this if I cant even run anymore. Now 2 years ago you tell me not to run, I would have been okay with that. Cause I was very thin, and hated running. Turns out Im starting to enjoy it, and just because I enjoy running now, my body hates me and doesnt want me to enjoy life. Oh BTW I even went to the doctor for the knee, she told me pretty much nothing, she told me to scrunch a towel with my toes to strengthen my arch. Really? Really? I bought $100 pair of running shoes, and nothing is helping. Im getting super pissed. Anyway enough of my loathing in self pity.
Positive: I am kinda seeing someone! And by kinda I mean Katie asks everyday if he is my boyfriend yet, apparently we hang out quite a bit. I'm a bit hesitant to take it any farther right now. You know with the whole divorce thing. I really didnt want to get serious with anyone for at least a year, and just date around and work on myself. Turns out he is a great guy and very unexpected. I havent been on a date with anyone else but him, since we first went out and I dont really want to. Yes Jessica I do like him. Quit asking. He is a friend of Jessica's boyfriend, they kinda set us up. But yeah, its going well and I guess I'll just let it go where ever it might go. I'm just really trying to focus on the fact that I have some issues with relationships that I need to work out. I love the idea of a relationship, and I am pretty much always in one, but Im not good at them. Im starting to realize some of the things that I do, and so hopefully I can work past those and not hurt anyone else. I tend to do that to people. So fret not Jess, Im trying to work on that. Anyway
Really long blog (sorry) short: I still have a job, my body hates me + zero weight loss= major frustration, I seeing someone who is a really good guy.

Edward, I'll get in your car anytime...

So, not much has been happening in the life of Celina as of late, but I thought why not update my one reader. Lets see.... Oh! I got bangs. I was nervous, I was, but we all know Katchie is a miracle worker so they look gorg. At least thats what people have been telling me. Well some people. I have also got that I look Asian and like Cleopatra. Hmmm, interesting. This weekend was very busy. Friday I had to borrow the ex's truck which turned out okay till I gave it back and somehow its my fault that the cardboard in the back was flying out all over the freeway and he had to stop to pick it up. Hilarious. Except the fact that he told me I could leave it in there. Whatever. Dont be a dick. Thanks. I ended up getting a new bed. I needed a new mattress something serious. I dont even know how old the mattress I had was and I woke up every day with major back pain. No Bueno. So I went and got a new mattress, of course the guy selling it to me thought Katie and I were lesbians. Why wouldn't you?? Apparently girls can no longer go shopping for things with friends cause people will assume lesbian. Really the guy said 'oh yea thats a really good mattress, when she gets into bed you wont even feel any movement' Uhh what? I just laughed hysterically cause there was nothing else I could do. Then we went to Katie's fav place Ikea and got a new bed and dresser. Came home attempted to put it together before leaving for Vic's bday dinner at 5.
Umm this Friday at midnight something great happened. Twilight came out on video. Shut up. I love this movie. I love Edward, and can I say I almost love him more now that he is in the comfort of my own living room?? Yeah. its true. Lordy he is gorg. We went to Katchie's Saturday to watch it but Katie and I ended up leaving early because I thought my head and eyes were going to explode in pain. Sorry Katch. :( But so we bought it and watched it in full Sunday. This was the 4th time Katie and I have seen this movie. Dont judge us we have little in this world to hold on to! But can I just say the hottest thing he says in this movie is when he saves her from being rapped and pillaged and tells her to 'Get in the car' hold on I need a moment... Jeez its hot. I need for someone to say that to me just as he does. Except I would probably say ' Uhh dont talk to me like that!' haha but not if it was Edward! And just for future reference for anyone out there reading. If anyone ever says to me 'I dont have the strength to stay away from you anymore' its over, we are getting married and Im having your babies. NOT. A. JOKE. Im pretty much obsessed with this movie. Everyone should see it and read the books.
Lastly, I have taken on a pretty accurate resemblence to Roudolph. Its hot. Just a note to guys. Shave. It helps everyone out.
Oh, also I'm probably losing my job again on the 30th. Look for me on 25th. I'll be the one with the red nose. Thanks.

A few more things...

I forgot to mention a few things about life when I wrote earlier. May 25th something spectacular is happening. What you ask?? No Doubt in concert at the E Center with who opening??? PARAMORE!!! SHUT YOUR FACE UP RIGHT NOW!! I heart Paramore, and if you dont know of who I speak.... Shame on you! They are so good they have 2 songs on the Twilight soundtrack along with other fantastic CD's. Seriously if you do not know them I suggest you leave your house right now, drive to the nearest music store and purchase Paramore's Riot CD. I'll wait....... I've had it for over a year and can still listen everyday without it getting old. I think I do listen everyday actually. The 2 songs on the Twilight soundtrack are 'Decode', and 'I caught myself'. Listen people listen.
The other thing I forgot to mention:
4 tweezers
3 hair ties
1000 bobby pins
a pencil
eyeshadow
a long straw looking thing
a big ball of candle wax
and an assortment of varies things that were unidentifiable.
What do all of these things have in common you ask?? They were at the bottom of my sink! I swear the only exaggeration there is there were a few less than 1000 bobby pins. SICK!! The sink has had trouble draining since we had a mishap with the candle that is by the sink. We no longer light it. Katie bought some liquid plumber, and it made it worse. Katie was thinking of writing a stern letter to liquid plumber because the bottle says 'Satisfaction Guaranteed' and we were not satisfied. So we decided to be plumbers Sunday night and take the U looking thingy off the thing under the sink (Im pretty profesh at knowing plumbing terms). We thought this was going to be a big deal. Turns out the U thingy comes off quite easily (good to know) and these are all the things we found. Liquid Plumber didnt stand a chance. Needless to say she will not be writing that letter.... In other news Katie and I are now taking up small plumbing needs if anyone has a U looking thingy they need fixed. The transformation to lesbeans is almost complete!

Oh to be 24....

So turns out last Saturday (March 7th) was my b-day. The big 24!! Apparently I am the only one who thinks that this is not that big of a deal. People after 21 the next big b-day is 25 when you look at your quarter of a century of life and wonder 'What am I doing with my life!!!!' and have a pre-mid life crisis. I still have a year for that. So we didnt really do all that much. Friday I went to dinner and a movie, (watchmen) pretty good, but 3 hours of blue men penis. Which...whatever fine by me I guess, it was kinda nice to not see boobs all over the screen. Not that peeps is that hot to look at.... anyway getting off the point there! Then Saturday we went to Famous Daves ( my fav place in the whole world!) which was delish. (Dear Mr. Dave, a tip of the hat to you and your freggin amazing BBQ sauce!) Then we ventured to Katchie and Jeff's, Katch was in Vegas so she was missed, but we watched the fights, Then at 1130 my sweet dear sister Jess said it was time to go to Rumors (Everybody RUMORS!!!!) which I had stated many times throughout the evening (even though she denies this ) that I didnt feel like going. I was good with chillin where we were and drinking bev's there or at someone elses house. I had a major whole-head headache going on. The kind that goes from the back of your neck clear to your eyeballs. ( No good people). She of course declined. So Mark and I drove separately (because not everyone can fit in one car!) and we "went to get gas" and ended up watching a movie on the couch, where I also changed into sweats. So it was a pretty good night! Of couse I was receiving hateful text messages all night about how lame I was. Well next year I'll be sure to have a huge bash to celebrate my quarter century of doing nothing with my life. So until then, deal with it!! Love you Jess!!! But I did get some pretty awesome makeup from my awesome sister! So I love you even more for that!! Oh and Mace! Also thank you to Katie for the sweet Cardigan and book, and Katchie for the cute shirt (medium was perfect) and everyone else who showered me with gifts!!! It was a really good b-day regardless of my not wanting to go to Rumors (Everybody RUMORS!!!) Ask Mace about that.
