Day 232: NSVs today

Well, I had several NSV's occur today. My size 42 jeans are fitting a little looser, I'm down to the last notch on my belt, and my wrist watch and wristband are both on the next lower notch each. I also noticed that my neck is much thinner than it was before. A good set of NSV's, I think. Last night I found this really excellent leather jacket at Amazon and I came just this][close to buying it. At the last second, I decided to wait another month. I need to make sure I have enough money for my weekend. Holiday and all that coming up, you know.

The OT yesterday really did a job on my mood, but the music definitely did a better job of combating the nasty mood I was in. By the time I got myself to bed, I was doing much better. My theme song today would probably be more along the lines of Rick Springfield's "Love is alright tonight":

I'm picking up my baby tonight

though her daddy's making trouble

it'll be alright

I'm working hard

I don't know why

I'm like a working class dog

and I just get by

Tonight I'm crawling out from in it

And though we're livin' on the brink

second by second by minute by minute

(chorus)

Love is alright tonight

We're gonna be alright

Love is alright

Love is alright tonight

Everyone's sayin' the sky's gonna fall

don't know where it's gonna stop

if it stops at all

I know the world's goin' crazy alright

I hope it holds together for one more night

Tonight I'm crawling out from in it

And though we're livin' on the brink

second by second by minute by minute

(chorus)

Don't worry Daddy

I'll have her home

at a respectable hour

Go to sleep Daddy

you won't think about tonight

With the night comes a feeling

that I've got this incredible power

Gonna love her Daddy

she'll be feeling it tonight

Alright, it's gonna be alright

It's gonna be alright

it's gonna be alright

Love is alright tonight (baby)

We're gonna be alright

Love is alright

Love is alright tonight

Not that any of that will happen tonight, but the upbeat and positive attitude of the song is how I feel tonight. Especially the line about having an incredible power. Between my patented charming smile and my new slender look, I'm looking pretty fine now. Just 41 pounds to go to goal and I'll be superfine and foxy. I'm already getting the looks now. Soon I'll have the ladies drooling and dripping when they see me walking by.

Get your bib ready, Cindy! I already know you'll be checking me out and staring. Someone might be upset by that! [GRIN] A couple of someones, actually. But I know you can't help yourself, either. It's all good.

Zai Jian!
