Decompressing

I'm back in Seattle. And working. /cry Though at least I have a job, I suppose. There have been rumors of layoffs at my company and I always get super paranoid that it's going to happen to me, which it totally could, no one is immune!
Anyway, it was a very meh return experience. Bad, even. ( Here's why. )
So, the last Princess Diaries book is out (#10, if you've lost track, which I wouldn't blame you for). Jade helpfully reminded me that yesterday was its release date and that Borders conveniently had a 40% off coupon that expired that day, so I should get it for reading on the plane, which I did. I'm about halfway through. ( My impressions so far, for those who don't want to be the least bit spoiled. )
I have an appointment today to see a doctor about my ankle. My parents were insistent about it and since it should be covered by my insurance, why not. It's actually been paining me more the last few days than it had before that, but maybe it's because I bowled on it. Yeah, not the brightest idea, but we didn't have anything else to do the last day! It's not my usual doctor, her next earliest appointment is next Thursday, and that's probably too late. I just want to make sure that I haven't done something so terrible to my ankle without realizing it, that later on down the road I'll regret that I didn't have it checked out.
I'm also looking forward to losing my holiday weight. I'm not afraid of not being able to do that; getting back into my old groove with my eating habits should take care of that fairly quickly. It's that my old eating habits weren't that great in the first place and I want to lose that weight as well. Maybe in the next couple of days I'll actually post some lofty new year's resolutions and actually try to accomplish them.
