Yesterday’s Weigh in was a Falacy

I had weighed myself on my in-law’s scale, which showed the .2.  Today I weighed myself on my scale, which showed 1!!!!!  So I checked with my peeps over at SparkPeople and they all concurred that I should use my own scale.  So 1lb it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I’ve lost 1.2 lbs in total.  Only 8.8 [...]

Weigh in Day…

another .2 gone! YAYAYA. I thought it would be nothing gone, or even a little gain this week, as this weekend was my Father In Law’s birthday and we went out to dinner and I ate totally off plan and haven’t exercised at all since Thursday. So I’ll take .2!

I Was Very Flattered

When Simon called me a ‘Heinlein Scholar’ over on Whedonesque.  The discussion was around Tim Minear’s Script of Robert A Heinlein’s The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. I would not necessary call myself a ‘scholar’ but I have read everything the man ever wrote, including the so called ‘boys books’ and his essays.  I have [...]

Meh. I Hate People…

So last night I had to run to Boots and Marks after work.  Boots was fine, except for the fact that their aisles are so narrow its hard to get past people.  But that’s Boots’ fault, not the people. Then I went to Marks.  Picked out some nice veg.  Some OJ.  Went to check out.  [...]

A Blast From the Past

I had another bad night.  I woke up at 4:40 and haven’t gotten back to sleep.  I tried for about 20 minutes, doing relaxation and guided breathing.  No dice. So I got up about 5 and logged in.  And in my email box is a message.  At first, I will admit, I stared at the [...]

To Sleep, Perchance To Dream…

Yeah, up at 4.20 again.  Someone kill me, k? First day back at work was good. I’m swamped with work, of course.  My todo list is 3 pages long.  Single spaced.  Hand written in my notebook.  Checked off about 4 things yesterday. Spoke to my boss about lightening my workload.  After a long discussion about [...]

So Today My Mother and Step-Father Start a Great Adventure…

They flew out of San Francisco to spend about a month in China.  The first week is a tour.  The rest of the trip is my Step-Father teaching English to Chinese people. He speaks not one word of Chinese.  But he already does this with some Russians in the States.  He should be excellent at [...]

Okay, so Maybe…

I should have stopped and apologized when I ran into the woman in front of me and jabbed her in the head with the pointy thingy on the brolly, and I did say sorry as I passed. However, the reason I ran into the woman in front of me and jabbed her in the head [...]
