Yeah, I've been noticing a ton of low-carb products lately where they replaced the sugar with artificial sweetener, and it's things that would taste perfectly fine if you just put in less sugar and didn't replace it with anything. (Although, I've seen Frosted Flakes and a few other sugary cereals with 1/3 less sugar -- is that replaced with anything, or just less? Although, considering the amount of sugar that's in Frosted Flakes to begin with, the 1/3 less would still have a ton.)
(When did the Frosted Flakes box switch from "Sugar Frosted Flakes" to "Frosted Flakes of Corn." I've seen the "Sugar Frosted Flakes" box in old ads, but it's been "Frosted Flakes of Corn" for as long as I can remember. I wonder when that switched, and why.)
I have been painting all day in the new apartment, and it looks soooo pretty! We're undecided about repainting over the parts we want to leave white. On the one hand, it probably needs it. On the other hand, it would be so much less work to just leave them alone. And we're going to be putting bookshelves and posters and stuff in front of most of the walls anyway.
We're also realizing that adding a room and a hallway has actually decreased our total usable wallspace (because the hallway's too narrow to put anything against the walls), making bookshelf placement kind of problematic. We have three bookshelves I wouldn't mind getting rid of, but we're still going to have to put all of our books somewhere. And we're hurting for shelf space as it is.

Not sure how much room I have - are they stacked?

No. That would cause even MORE problems.

In the 80's. A healthy name craze shook the industry.
Sugar Frosted Flakes became Frosted Flakes
Sugar Smacks became Honey Smacks, then Smacks
Sugar Crisp, became Super Sugar Crisp in the last gasp before being reduced to Honey Crisp, and finally Golden Crisp. (Sugar Bear was renamed Honey Bear in that one)
Similarly Sugar Pops, became Sugar Corn Pops just before the purge and being renamed Corn Pops
I just got payment for a resume I did this week, so I did the PayPal transfer request and entered the amounts in my income/expense and checking account spreadsheets. I decided to compare my income to where I was last year.
It took me till the end of July 2004 to make what I've already made this year. And that's not counting the check my dance company client assures me I'll get early next week. Include that and we're into mid-August.
Granted, last year I started in February and then didn't work again from the time I got put on bedrest until June. But still, it feels like a good sign, especially since I haven't even started a marketing push yet.
That's great, Susan! I know how much you've been pushing and it must feel so good to see it paying off.
