Hi:
I was good seeing you over the weekend. Thanks for coming home to see Austin.
I remembered you went to a check up recently. How was the result? Is your blood sugar, cholesterol OK? My family has history of Diabetes. My cousin Sunny has been diagnosed with it after the diving accident. He has since lost about 20 pound to control it. I love you that is why I am bugging you to see a nutritionist. No matter what your size we will always love you. We want to see you happy and healthy. You are our super star and super girl and always in control and super discipline. It certainly does not take a rocket scientist to figure out how to balance your food intake to balance or reduce a little weight. Even Austin could figure that out. You should not deprive yourself of any particular food but just cut down in portion. If you are still hungry munch on things that are low in calories, like cucumber, carrot sticks, celery sticks. OK
Love, Mommy

strange facts about my life

so my windshield wiper fluid is clearly some alcoholic soap concoction. but every time i use it to spray my windshield, i get this small burst windshield fluid smell in my car through the air vents. and you know what's really weird? to me, that smell to me is reminiscent of my father's breath when i was growing up as a kid. i think that's a telltale sign that my dad drinks too much. either that, or he drinks too much audi window wiping fluid.

second thing? i've been flying these cross country flights to nyc a lot recently. and during those trips i've realized that i like to watch movies with no sound. it let's you run your creative juices a little. you should all try it.
