Carol! I just got back from late night pigging out on chips, queso and cake and it really made me miss all our pig-out sessions :( I mean, miss you in a totally platonic and appropriate way, of course.
Since everyone thinks I'm creepy and in love with you :(
Im sorry, I have nothing else interesting to write about. My brain and tummy are full of cheese and chocolate.

Why is it that we can never fully appreciate what we have until its gone?
I took for granted Carol's tree-hugging, granola-loving ways while we lived together, and often made fun of her behind her back for being such a hippie. Two weeks after our separation, I now see that she was a gift sent from God, on a mission to save our world from a very inconvenient truth.
With Carol gone, the Stars and Us Weeklies just pile up, waiting to be recycled (I try to keep the Forbes around so people will think I'm smart when they come over). My usual 20 minute hot showers have somehow turn into 40 minute scalding hot showers. I looked at my desk this morning at work and realized I had 4 stryrofoam products on my desk!!
Carol's little heart would break if she knew.
In my defense, I needed them all for very different reasons! One cup had milk, one had water, one had coffee, and I needed a little styrofoam bowl for my cereal! Sigh. If only Carol was around to guilt-trip me into believing that I am single-handedly destroying the Earth with my excessive styofoam usage.
Which I probably am. Oh well! If the Earth dies tomorrow, then sorry guys!! At least you won't have to worry about global warming anymore!

REUNITED AND IT FEELS SO GOOD
After nearly two weeks of separation, Carol and I were reunited yesterday at her graduation!
It was a little awkward, kind of like running into an ex boyfriend after the break-up - like, OMG! how do I look?? Do I look fat? Does she look happier than me??
Well, she indeed looked very happy! Look how holy she looks! She should have a little halo on her head.
Bangoo was soo excited to attend graduation, since she doesn't get to attend public events very often. Even though she's a (very cute) weasel, people always mistake her for a R-A-T, which really hurts her feelings. She's strong, but the tears still come at night.
extreme close up of Bangoo in the audience. She spent sooo long making her banner!

THE GAMES WE PLAY
Today I am going to take a break from blogging about Carol and focus on another superbly awesome female in my life. Heartbreaking, I know. Today, I want to talk about...
wait for it...
Bangoo!!
So Bangoo and I have this little game we like to play - she steals my wallet and I steal it back from her. I've had a little black Coach wallet for the past 4 years and for some reason, she loves it! Every chance she gets, she will steal it and hide it from me. Once she hid it so well that I couldnt find it for 3 months! I even had to cancel all my cards and get a new driver's license! I later found out that she had hidden it under my bed, but inside my mattress! So smart, right? She takes after her mama (me, not Mrs. Bangoo).
Anyways, so we go back and forth, stealing and re-stealing. I'm usually pretty good about checking my bag to make sure my wallet is in there but I woke up so late for work today, I just ran out the door. foreshadow
So for lunch I wanted to try this new dumpling place that opened in downtown in the Republic Tower. So I make the 15-minute trek over there and was sooo excited with the menu!! I love dumplings!! I take forever to decide what to order and in the process, hold up the line behind me and aggravate everyone. I finally place my order and go up to pay when OH NO!!! I dont have my wallet! That darn Bangoo! So I had to cancel my order and give back my tea :( Saddest day ever.
The guy at the register felt sorry for me and told me to go ahead and keep my order and that it would be on the house, but I felt so bad that I insisted that I would just come back the next day. So now, I have to walk 15 minutes over there again tomorrow to prove to them that I'm not some vagrant living in downtown. Sigh.
And all the while, Bangoo was at home laughing at me.
Bangoo: 1
Me: 0
Carol: -154,500,000 (for leaving us)

you know, some shows are just not fun watching alone. I tried watching Ni Hao, Kai Lan the other day, and its just not the same without Carol guiding me. I mean, Kai Lan never waits for me!! How do I know if I'm saying it right? Some of us are not as smart as you Kai Lan! Geez.
I also watched How I Met Your Mother tonight (best show ever!) and I had no one to look over and scream OMGGGG with at the surprise ending! So, is she the mother??! Is she??? Somebody tell me!
When Carol lived here, she would always do pushups before bed, and sometimes she would encourage (i.e. threaten) me to join her. So today, I am going to do 10 push ups!! These push ups are dedicated to you Carol. You know how lazy and out of shape I am so you better appreciate it.

omg that was torture. cant type. too tired. arms falling off. help

THE FIRST WEEKEND
I survived my first weekend without Carol! It was tough, but somehow, I got through it. Bangoo was soo encouraging! Her little paw wiped away all my tears.
So an anonymous friend, who I will call 중국 소녀, asked me this weekend if I would continue my blog now that our "end of an era" countdown was over. She then proceeded to wonder aloud what Carol was doing at the moment, with a dreamy, far-off look on her face, while lying in my bed. Ummm, creepy!! I need to watch out for that one - next thing I know, her and Carol will be roommates! Hmmpph!
Im sure all 2 of my loyal readers will be devasted if I stop blogging. Plus, now that Carol is SO far away, I can update her on my super awesome life! I just have to remember not to sound too creepy.
Carol! A new US Weekly came in this weekend and you weren't here to read it! You were also not here to read FML with me yesterday; its just not as funny reading it without you. I also made some brazilian cheese bread and you were not here to roll your eyes at me disapprovingly while glaring at my steadily-increasing waistline. I miss your tough love.
Oh yeah, Bangoo had something she wanted to say to you.
