Mind of Mand-i-a

I got a nice blog comment yesterday about how I'm so funny. It's true... I'm hysterical. I wish I had more friends who appreciated my sense of humor. Cuz gosh darn it, I'm funny.

I have a hard time being quiet in class... still. Growing up, I remember one kid used to tell me for years that I would end up a comedian. Other kids used to tell me to shut up. If you weren't popular, you weren't allowed to be a class clown. They didn't want to see you or hear you.

I'm watching X-Files. That show is awesome. I would like to have a standing list on this site of things that are officially deemed awesome.

I'm going to write that I've been tentatively doing great the past few days. As soon as I went back on the Prozac and Seasonable, it's been a huge improvement. I'm still hungry a lot but it's not a desire to binge.

One of my favorite lines from my favorite musician is "If I knew all the words, I would write myself out of here." I feel like I can use my writing to explore bulimia, not just mine but it as a whole.

My birthday is in a week. I will have to change the "about" thing to say I am 30. How can I be 30? That doesn't make sense. Me being 30 is freakier than any X-Files premise.

P.S. The most awesome thing of all may be hot men with English accents. I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 2 finally. Too bad you can't go to the concession stand and order a small popcorn, medium Diet Coke and a large dildo. Holy hell! Hot hot hot! I shall write a Shakespearian sonnet about how Orlando and I should get it on 500 times. Get thee to Mandy!

You don't have to be quiet in class, just don't vocalize every thought burning in your mind! Hey, with all the money we pay for college, our input and discussion is warranted. It is hard for me too!!
On your last post, I have the same book! I have read it, mostly her story, and skimmed over the rest. When I saw the plan, it was exciting, but just like you, it FREAKS me out! I am scared to be with out the bulimia, and wonder what I would have for fun or who I would be? Upon approaching the plan, I think our minds likely elicited the same response.
I also have two other books written by her, one about self-esteem, and one with womens' recoverry stories (very good). Try to find pleasure in the other senses of the world. This is hard for me, but it was a beautiful day here, walking around campus, so it reminds me to tell myself that I don't NEED the bingeing. Maybe try that sometimes? Take care. :)

Hmmm...not all English accents are hot though...living in London at the moment, and cockney is about as far as you can get from sexy! But then I guess if they all looked half as yummy as Johnny I wouldn't really mind ;)
enjoying your blog, sending you loads of positive thoughts!!!

Hey Mandy,
I'm with you on Little Miss Sunshine! Was that not totally the most cute, awesome, uplifting movie ever? I agree that everyone should see it. It's a rare thing to walk out of a movie theatre these days-feeling like you got your moneys and times worth.

As for the english accent...Hmm. Depends on the guy. Johnny Depp, I could devour with any accent. Same goes for Eric Bana (think Troy, Munich), or George Clooney. If I ever meet one of them, they don't stand a chance of escaping my clutch. But, you may have a point because even though Hugh Grant is not my type, as soon as he starts speaking he is sexy as hell!
