Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy Anniversary, AmyLiz and DH!

Thelma is shiny.

Because books.

Oh, Thelma *is* shiny! I like.

Thanks for the anniversary wishes, everyone! I'm so glad we still like each other after eighteen years (and three before that, while dating) that it's something I'm very thankful for. My DH is a very good guy.

Crap. I just lost my longish, lovely post. Here's the short version:

  • Got the IM names in GAIM, yay!
  • Thelma's lovely and I love her red.
  • Everything's getting more expensive, but income is not growing at a corresponding rate.
  • I read a new diet/lifestyle, and am inspired. More veggies, water and exercise will hopefully equal fewer calories and less weight. We'll see how it works out, but I'm still having fizzy wine!!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Why are groceries so damned expensive?
when my sister and I shared an apartment, we decided one summer to eat healthy snacks (no cookies or chips, etc). The food bill nearly tripled!!! WTF! So it's bad for ya AND cheaper!?! No wonder we Americans are so over weight. Just not fair!

Course, I'm discovering I snack more as stress increases. Need to find healthy snacks that last long time that are yummy (sorry, rice cakes are out! ick! Styrofoam! ack!) O ya, need to be quiet so I can snack in quiet theater and disturb actors on stage. blah. I'll never be thin again.

Ok...what do we think of this as an e-mail to my professor?

I checked my grades in WISER yesterday and was surprised to see an actual grade for English 379. I thought we had agreed on an incomplete and filled out the paper work. I am working on finishing the assignments and will have everything to you before next semester starts.

Is the grade that is in WISER just a placeholder, or was there some sort of misunderstanding?

Oh, I stress snack like CRAXY!

Have you tried the flavored Quaker Oats rice snacks? They really are quite tasty (and small). The best are the carmel corn flavored ones but they make them in savory flavors, too. Owen actually believed those were "chips" until he figured out what the Doritos bag looks like. *sigh*

With my inactivity (due to the back issues), holidays and stress, I've put on about 15 lbs since Summer.

DH and I are going back on a low(er) carb diet. Which is why I was complaining about the higher grocery bill today. Just by buying fresh (and frozen) veggies, fruits and more lean meat we were shocked at the difference.

Have I mentioned that I got a new digital camera for Christmas, or that JZ rocks and came down with Matilda to see me?

We ended up going over to Half Moon Bay. I need to figure out the lighting and contrast on the camera still, but there are still some OMGCUTE shots of the two of them.

Oh! Pretty mama! Crazy adorable baby! What a nice outing -- and nice pictures!

We got a digital camera from my parents for Christmas, and it's fabulous -- except for the fact that I am *still* trying to figure out how to upload them anywhere.
