last night i went to hot yoga again. this time i was much more hydrated and prepared. another new adventure with a good friend :) thats what life is all about.

i am back on the major workout/diet bandwagon. to get healthier and lsoe those last few pounds? yes. but more importantly because I plan on being somewhere hot in the beginning of August and need to look good, lol. I can be totally shallow - deal with it.

I am now considering cutting alcohol out until then. this has caused me great distress, as i recall of the fantastic moments of my life and most of them have invovled alcohol. that is so sad. let's review some of the top ten Dawn moments and the alcohol involved):

1. Getting locked in my trunk at a DMB concert in order to demonstrate my inner latch which allowed me to pop out (mike's hard iced tea - i know, i am a lightweight)

2. Dancing on the bar at Hogs and Heifers (espresso martinis, white wine, shots of blackhouse, corona - and yes, I did throw up , a lot)

3. Dancing on a pole at Jet in Vegas with birthday cake sunglasses, and it was not my brithday (day drinking - a lot- , cranberry and vodka, patron)

4. Pouring cups of water on myself while "Welcome to the Jungle" palyed at Rehab in Vegas (strictly 4 liters of vodka lemonades)

5. A night which shall remain a secret (well excluding the 4 people involved) - (a bottle of white wine, for me)

6. Lady Gaga + a garbage can + Dawn's infamous need to always pee (white wine, espresso vodka and a broken cell phone later)

7. The Ritz, hot sweaty gay boys and myself and then passing out in my bathtub and waking up in ice cold water (white wine and what i would like to believe is a roofie)

there are so many other moments, perhaps some I am too embarassed to now write.

I don't know if I can ban alcohol from my life. That is such a sad statement in retrospect.
