My attitude's a bit better today, in part because my brother-in-law's parents decided to move up their departure a day early. Now they'll be out of here Friday afternoon, leaving me free to go to the stores that evening to pick up In The Groove for PS2, although I'll likely save that for a couple of days and go play DDR at the arcade instead. There's no telling what I'll be up to those first few days they're gone, but I hope it involves me spending lots and lots of time outside of this house.
I don't know whether or not I'll be going off-diet to celebrate though. I'm still suffering a bit from IBS, although it's not as bad as it once was and I don't want to risk upsetting my system by loading it full of fatty foods. The strange thing is, for the past week and a half I've cut all sodas and spicy foods out of my diet, and I don't really feel a temptation to go off-diet, or at least not a craving for off-diet foods. I guess I'm just worried because it's been when I've made radical shifts in my diet in the past -- like cutting off my soda -- that my off-diet binges have gotten stronger and more frequent and eventually lead to me quitting my diet. I guess I should try to ride this current wave of on-dietness as long as I can, huh?
Oh shit, now my parents are singing bad comedy songs to my brother-in-law's parents. Somebody help me!
Edit: After doing yoga tonight, my parents actually decided to play their old Ray Stevens videos. Good fucking grief.
