no way! you can't leave us hanging like that! i'm curious now. inquiring minds want to know!!!!
OK
Dene I'll beg!!
Alright missy - what trouble did you find, who was your accomplish ????
YEAH, DENE! You got some splainin' to do!!!!
Okay, ladies... since you asked.
Cast of characters:
Dene'... weight losing fool looking to have some of the fun she's been missing
Jay... hunky-trainer dude who inspires Dene' to go to the gym by his mere presence
Stacy... female friend from the Y that is also one of "Jay's girls"... we get results
Amy... Jay's "nothing serious" female friend (he doesn't have girlfriends... just "special friends", he's apparently a bit of a playboy)
Mike... Jay's friend who really doesn't tell very interesting stories
Friday night, Stacy and Dene' meet up with Jay and Amy at his apartment. Jay's been hitting the Chardonay ('cuz he ran out of beer) and Dene' drinks a glass and a half. Dene' meets Amy for the first time (after hearing about her periodically as in "Amy and I did this or went there"). Unfortunately, Amy is very nice and Dene' can't help liking her. Amy does however, have a couple of strikes against her in Jay's eyes. First, she has an 8-year-old son. Second, he's 5'8" and she's 6'.
On the way out to some peoples' house (where Jay's brother, sister-in-law, and some other folks are), Stacy buys some beer. Dene' drinks one. Dene' also manages to drop her little handbag and dump out her makeup in Jay's very nice car. The only food Dene' would eat at this house was a few grapes and 4 small cubes of cheddar cheese... she wasn't touching the cake, dip, etc. No alcohol was served, so Dene' did not consume any.
After a couple of hours of polite conversation, Dene', Stacy, Jay, and Amy return to Jay's apartment. Amy must leave to get her son from the babysitter's... he's been calling and calling and calling and wants to be picked up. Stacy and Dene' stay to watch a movie on Jay's gigantic tv. More beers are consumed. During the course of the movie, Dene' learns a bit more about Jay including a particularly surprising side job that Dene' is not at liberty to discuss because its not about Dene'. Dene' and Stacy also see several photographs of Jay going as far back as his bodybuilding competition days. Jay, who gets very relaxed and playful when he consumes alcohol, also shows Dene' and Stacy some pictures on his cell phone that were totally unexpected and would be censored if Dene' described them...
Dene' consumes more beer.
Midnight rolls around and Stacy leaves. Dene' needs to leave, but Dene' has consumed too many beers. Jay gives Dene' a pillow and a blanket so she can lay on the couch to "recover" and leave when she feels it is okay or just crash until morning. Jay then goes into his room, shuts the door, and goes to sleep. Dene' sleeps until about 2:15... wakes up, and she is still not going to drive. Family history with drunk driving fatalities and fear of headlines of "Biology Teacher gets DWI" keep her on the couch. 3:15 Dene''s phone rings... her daughter wants to know where she is and is totally surprised at the answer.
Dene' feels okay to drive, so she folds up the blanket and gets her little handbag... but her car key is missing. Oh, crap! It fell out when she dropped her handbag in Jay's very nice car. Double crap! Dene' might have to wake up Jay to get his car keys so she can get hers! Wait... is that? YESSSS, Jay's keys are on the kitchen counter! Dene' goes out to Jay's very nice car and carefully unlocks it, so as not to set off any alarms. Dene''s key (which is only a single key so it would fit better in her bag) is wedged between the seat and the floorboard at the door. Eventually, Dene' is able to work it out using the keys to Jay's very nice car.
Dene' goes home... and talks to her daughter for an hour telling her "most" of what happened and laughing hysterically. Dene' goes to bed, sleeps 3 hours, and wakes up at 7:30 am feeling strangely great. She proceeds to go to Yoga and later meets Jay and Stacy for a workout at the Y... oddly, neither of them feels great. Dene' does learn that she is "funny" and not at all stuffy as some people had feared she might be... she will be asked to return for future festivities.
Saturday night, Dene' takes her daughter to "The Reaping"... it is okay, but a bit slow so Dene' doses off.
Sunday, Dene' meets Stacy and Jay to workout at the Y. She learns that Jay and Amy had also seen "The Reaping" the previous night, but at an earlier showing. Jay would have preferred to see "Disturbia", but Amy picked the movie they saw. Dene' has already made plans to go to "Disturbia" with her daughter Sunday night. Dene' invites Stacy and tells Jay to come if he gets bored. Stacy decides not to go. Dene', her daughter, and her niece enjoy the movie MUCH more than "The Reaping". To rub it in, Dene' sends Jay a text message saying how much better "Disturbia" was... and she receives a response inviting her over to Jay's apartment because Stacy and Mike are there. Dene' drops off daughter and proceeds to Jay's apartment. Mike tells antecdotes about his stepmother's strange family and Dene' consumes a mere two beers. Stacy and Dene' leave and Mike remains to play X-box.
Dene' does not feel quite so great Monday morning until about lunch. Sunday night, Dene' had succumbed to peer pressure and had actually smoked a couple of cigarettes (not something Dene' normally does). Her heart pounded from 3 am until 7 am and she was light-headed all morning. Jay, Stacy, and Dene' agreed that Dene' should no longer succumb to the peer pressure of smoking cigarettes.
Really, everything looked beautiful! Oh, how did the ice cream cake go over with your SIL??

I read your blog - congrats on the body fat %!! And your fajita story is scary as all get out. What do you think caused it? Just the beef itself being too hard to digest? I haven't tried beef yet, but I'm not really craving it yet either.
