Unexptected Roommate

So Ryan is living with me right now. Yeah, you heard right. He got into yet another fight with his father that ended in packing up all of his stuff and putting it into his car. When he came over that afternoon my family and I told him he is welcome to stay here temporarily until he can find another place. Which he will do. Because he's a determined person. He already has some friends from work that need a place looking for apartments in town with him. He'll have one in no time. He'll live there until time for UT in the fall. I'm proud of him. Realistically I think he should have stayed home for convenience until the fall, but I know it was hard on him. And once he has a place and a steady income to pay for it he will be better off. So he's looking for a second job, too, because he really only works on the weekend as a Supervisor at the movie theater. I know he can do it. He's a persevering kind of person like that. Even more so than me - and I'm pretty damn determined once my mind is made up. Haha. I have to admit that I'm going to miss doing his laundry, falling asleep and waking up together, coming home to each other, and kissing him goodbye on his way to school or work. Heh. I'm so hopeless. XD I'm just going to enjoy it while it lasts; besides, it will happen again in time. You know, since we're getting married eventually and all.

In other news I'm starting my weight loss junk again. Haha. Nothing heavy. Just some tiny modifications. I'll step it up as I see fit. I know implementing a drastic change right off of the bat won't happen, at least not for long. So as of right now I'm just eating what I always have, BUT I'm implementing portion control. Taking half of my food home at restaurants, etc. Trying to eat out a little less because lately that's all I do. I'm also going to start DDRing at least 30 minutes every day, though I know there will be days that I won't. I'm not even going to lie. Haha. But I plan on slowly increasing either the duration or number of times I DDR a day and eventually adding on some workouts on certain days to replace the DDR. I know I won't be able to change my eating habits quite so easily, though. So I'm still trying to figure out how to slowly implement that. I do know I need to drink more water. Because I won't drink less soda. I know that. But I can drink more water and juice in between to balance it out. And then maybe I can slowly drink less soda. Heh. Bleh~
