Albuquerque day 4 [imported from Myspace]

I didn't get up today until around 2:30pm, probably because I kept getting woken up either by a stupid parrot or by everyone getting up for work/school. Kimberly slept in almost as late as me because she didn't have to go on call for work until 5pm and she called in sick because she was supposed to go in to meet some high bosses for lunch.
She prodded me to go shower, which I did, then after we were dressed and ready she took me to see a few of the local sights. First was the Albuquerque LDS temple. She didn't know that we could walk on the grounds so I had her stop the car in the parking lot and we got out(in the freezing wind) to walk around and I took pictures.
After the temple she took me on a drive where we passed a huge Native American casino. And we went home.
Anthony made spaghetti and meatballs for dinner and we watched the elimination episode of American Idol where 2 boys and 2 girls from the top 24 got booted. They kicked off 2 boys that I really adored. After American Idol we watched a special episode of Don't Forget The Lyrics where an old boy band called Boyz II Men were the contestants. They cleared all the stages/categories of songs but didn't risk the million-dollar song.
Anthony ran to the gas station to get cigarettes and got candy for Kimberly and I. The kids were already in bed by then. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted but went with Rollos and Kimberly got Reese's peanut butter cups.
I struggled to eat at home and had been losing lots of weight but being out here I've eaten pretty well and I'm sure I've gained back all that weight plus some. I'm almost afraid to go home. I don't want to be miserable again.
I need to write to Dustin again but I have so little to say and anything that I do want to say to him would be much better in person, like when I go to see him for Family Day/Graduation.
I'm going to get my couch ready for sleeping on and read some Harry Potter before sleeping for 12 hours.
