Changes

So after several years of paying way too much money and stockpiling way too many kits of Proactiv by using them slower than I was receiving them, I've stopped. I'm opting to pursue cheaper acne treatment from now on. Some astringent and moisturizer is all I need, and Proactiv wasn't the miracle treatment for me that it has apparently been for others. I still broke out, and it still sucked. Haha. So I might as well save some money.

I've also significantly reduced my caffeine intake. I've stopped buying it to keep at home. I'm only drinking it when I go out to eat, to a movie, and the random trips to the convenience store when Ryan and I need the caffeine to stay up all night beating an entire Final Fantasy game. ^_^;; I have a killer headache right now and feel incredibly lethargic, but I know it will pass in time. I was getting up to five or six cans a day plus whatever I had while out. That is way too much caffeine for one Erika. I've got plenty of grape juice and Sunny D to keep me happy taste wise for a while, and I'm chugging water in between. I have to kick this habit and get it back to where soda is just a treat for out and about. It's expensive and unhealthy to drink an entire twelve pack of cans in two days...or less. It has to stop.

Tonight I went over to base and watched Lakeview Terrace with Ryan. It was decent but nothing grand. I'm looking forward to some of the other movies we're planning to watch at the $1 theater over the next couple of weeks. Between $1 movies and Final Fantasy X-2 we're hoping to keep ourselves entertained for cheap until time to fly home for Christmas. We want to have some spending money and be able to afford any eating out or gas money we might need for running around visiting people and places from our G-Vegas and Knoxville pasts. We're excited and ready for it to be December 19th so we can fly out and head to Tennessee.
