Please Read Me!

I didn't even know how to title the post. Seeing as it has been so long. 

So, just in case you weren't paying attention, I made a desperate attempt at provoking excitement about this lack-luster post....(te-he).

Hello, My name is Kate.

And I'm addicted to my Spring Break. 

[Reason numero uno for not blogging....]

I can't say that I've been having writer's block because... 

I haven't even tried... 

I know what it is....

I've had idea-block.

I don't even know where to start any of my (slightly pathetic) attempts at posting...

So here I am... begging for forgiveness from my loyal readers (yet again). 

You don't hate me yet do you??? 

I'm fearing that you are staring at my picture and thinking...

Yeah, Kate - actually I do. 

hehe. 

I know ya'll are too kind....

and very forgiving. 

You deserve a million Thank-You(s)!!

So where have I been? Why haven't I been blogging? 

What happened to Blog #2?

Let's answer those (very good) questions in order. 

First, I've been here on base (on my spring break), very homesick. 

[Wanna know a secret? A very pathetic secret?]

I was wishing I was one of those rich,young, hot royals on VH1  

or at least friends with one of them.

  So I could borrow their private jets to fly home. 

I would even borrow one of their yachts and boat home...

Yea - I'm that desperate. haha. 

[I told you it was pathetic....]

Second, I haven't been blogging. 

It's not such a big secret. 

I'm slightly stuck.

What is there to blog about? 

Do you even like to read about my little (very homesick) life in Japan? 

I'll be around more often. 

(promises..promises..)

Third, Blog #2 has gotten away from me. 

I'm still personally on track with my weight-loss. 

I am utilizing many Japanese techniques to stay slim. 

And I'm taking a very direct American attitude. 

..particularly towards the excess that has accumulated 

around my middle section...

(and rear...). 

I just don't know how to spark motivation, when I can barely motivate myself. 

I'm working it all out!

I'm not giving up on it..

just trying to find some direction. 

I'll let you know here (on this blog) when I find that direction... 

OK??

Oh - And...Just in case you were wondering....

(I'm sure you were...)

I strategically placed photos in this post to keep your interest!

I will stoop to such a level!

Did it work?

No? dang.
