Day 108

Sea Day. Dear lord…seven days left. SEVEN. A WEEK! Today has been rocky. I tried to weigh myself in the gym, but the scale can’t handle rocky days. I weigh somewhere in between 186-197 pounds.

Today I ate breakfast…more than yesterday but not as much as usual. My appetite is coming back at least. Deanna and I were up late watching terrible movies on TNT. Well, first we watched Saved with Mandy Moore and Macauly Culkin. Next we watched some movie with Kevin Klein and young Darth Vader (the actor that played him…Hayden something). That was pretty good, but we never knew the name of it. Kevin Klein has cancer and wants to build a house with his son. Know it? I’d never heard of it either.

I think I’m back on track with my appetite. Had three meals today. Little battles. I didn’t go to the VIP party tonight, but met with the cast for dinner at Chin Chin’s. It felt like the first dinner that we’ve all been too in a long while. And we’ve been to a lot. The past few cruises someone has had guests so we either had too many people to go eat together at a restaurant, or we ate separately. But tonight! Chin Chin’s.

Afterwards Deanna, Jen, Andy and I went to see our last Band on the Run for our contract. I don’t recall a cruise on this contract where Deanna and I haven’t seen the show. Maybe one, max. They were having fun with it for the most part. I mean…they always do, but it seemed like they were giving it extra spice tonight. At the end it got ridiculous, I started misting up thinking about how it is the last show…but I pulled it together. We hung out to chat with the JARs afterwards and apparently a lot of them were on the same wavelength. Everyone was trying to avoid eye contact with us at the end because they were thinking about how it was the last BotR with us there (in the front row if you’re Deanna and I). We’ve been blessed with a fantastic cast of people in the JARs just as we have been in our own cast.

JARs, you are great…spread the word Jenny and Christopher and Phillippa.

Oh, and that picture is of a teen who got kicked out of the Casino. He was with his dad and there was a bit of a heated discussion with Security. As always, the parent ends up staying in the Casino and gambling.
