Wait for me

Time to play catch-up. Here we go.

(#84) Dumb movies- I love a good movie, but sometimes a bad movie is even better. I saw The Eagle with my friend Mellissia on Friday night. Now it wasn't the worst movie I have ever seen, but it was nowhere near the top. Dumb movies are great because you get to spend most of the time making fun of them. Although the people  behind us may not have appreciated it, we had a great time poking fun at Channing Tatum and the rest of the Romans.

(#85) Trades-I have discovered the best thing ever, training my roommates in the art of massage so that we can trade. I feel dumb that it took me so long to realize the potential here, but better late than never. Now I get to have free massages as they practice on me and I feel super smart passing on all my wisdom.

(#86)  Fasting- I realize that this sounds like a weird thing to be thankful for, but I really am thankful for fasting. I feel like it's a good exercise in gaining control. My blogs may have already given this away but I love food. It is a passion and also a weakness. Giving up food for a long period of time is really hard, not only because I'm hungry but I also just enjoy eating. Going without makes me feel really in control, like I am truly giving up something by choice and not because I am forced to. I am also much more thankful for my food once the fasting is over. I really appreciate the full stomach and the satisfied appetite.
