juldeaI broke 150, by the way. For the past 3 days it's been 149.x. Hooray! I celebrated by, um, well, I haven't celebrated. Whole lack-of-money thing. I have to go grocery shopping this week on ~$45... And if I have to buy gas, I have to go grocery shopping on ~$25. Bleh.
My clothes - well, pants - are starting to fit looser. My homemade bell-bottoms, who have a broken beltloop on the back from when I used to tug them up, now are a little baggy in the back/legs. This actually makes me feel more bad than good - all these wonderful clothes that I've gotten used to are soon going to be ebay/goodwill fodder. And I am going to need MONEY to buy new ones, even IF I only shop at TJ Maxx/Ross. No one around to donate size 10 clothing to me... heh. And since I don't want to buy new clothes until I have reached my goal (and I don't even know what my goal is, it's a general I'll-know-it-when-I-get-there type thing), I'm going to be wearing these too-large-for-me things for a while...
Boy, my problems are rough, aren't they. *snort at myself*
On a totally different topic, the idle thought came to me of officially changing my name from Julia to Juldea. It's... it's a nickname that means a lot to me, and stands for a part of me that I would like to express to the world. If you don't understand, that's fine. Anyway, it's just something I'm pondering. My parents would probably kill me. ;)
Back to my latest comic... and then to finish Atlas Shrugged!

on 18 Jul 2001 09:15 (UTC)Ack, it must be rough to find correctly-sized maternity clothes in Japan!
no subject
on 18 Jul 2001 15:21 (UTC)KC and i went out to return a pair of pants for her, last week, here in town, and she had to exchange a "large" for an "extra-large."
KC wears a size 3/4 in american sizes.
molly is the wife of another guy on nick's ship, bodee (i think is how it's spelled). she just had her daughter a couple of weeks ago and at dinner 2 nights ago she offered me her maternity clothes when i need them.
