"And I don't feel any different. The clanking of crystal, explosions off in the distance...
So everybody put your best suit or dress on. Let's make believe we are wealthy for just this once...
I wish the world was flat like the old days, then I could travel just by folding a map.
No more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways - there'd be no distance that can hold us back...
So, this is the New Year."
-Death Cab for Cutie-
I hadn't listened to Death Cab in the longest time (two years maybe), but then the song above just seemed appropriate =)
We're almost halfway through January and I can't believe it.
I ate my 12 grapes on New Year's and made my 12 resolutions.
Now for the one that really counts: the weight resolution.
After five years of on-and-off ED, I won't pretend I can help it anymore. I've gained ten pounds since August when my parents practically forced recovery on me without actually consulting a specialist, who could have explained the mysteries of eating disorders (it's not simply about force feeding your kid and monitoring the bathroom). So, the first goal is to get back to 120, and then my second goal weight is 115 lbs. My ultimate goal weight is 105 lbs. I'm not sure if I can pull that off without having my parents flip out. We shall see. On a happy note, 12 days into January, and I've lost the first five pounds =)
