Woke up this morning and looked in the mirror and for the first time – I had no idea who I was looking at. For the past two months I have been growing a moustache for portraying Teddy in “Arsenic & Old Lace.” I hate the thing, with a passion, but they didn’t want to use a fake one so I agreed. I have also gained all the weight back I had lost in September, which didn’t surprise me.
I have kidded myself that I was gaining weight “for the role” but deep down I know it wasn’t truly necessary. February is going to be the month for me I have decided – in January everybody is out with their “new years resolutions” to lose weight and get in shape – most of them have failed already.
So yeah, February is going to be my month. I re-started my Blockbuster Online subscription, so now I have a reason to walk to the post office downtown again, and since I get 3 at a time, if I take one back a day, it should keep me busy every day of the week, assuming I get the next one by the time I run out in 3 days.
There are exactly three weeks (21 days) left until I can shave the moustache off. So begins the countdown.
