AmyLiz, I hope that job works out for you.

I hardly recognize beth's posts now that she's got spellcheck.

no extra e's or reversed letters

Good jbo, Beeeeeth!

please do not bother to lecture about how to lose weight.

Heh. Let me just add "....EVER!!!" to that exhortation. Because, look -- I'm 35 years old, I have a job and a college degree, I manage to cross the street without getting flattened by a truck or Segway, and I have more than a rudimentary knowledge of computers and other technological wonders.

Based on that, HOW do you think I managed to NOT EVER hear about "how to lose weight" in those 35 years?!?

Add to that the fact that I watch TV and movies, I read newspapers and magazines and large sections of the internets -- DO YOU THINK I JUST MISSED THE COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF DIET ADVICE that the media provides on a daily basis?

I am fat. I am not missing brain matter. Jesus.

Ahem. (Yeah, you could say I got me some issues.)

ION, I am home b/c this headache is well and truly the worst migraine I have ever had. It's receding a bit, finally, but I still want to drill a hole in my skull to let the demons out. I've been in bed, in the dark, all day until now, because noise and light made me grab my head and keen and cry. (Which was not helped when my next-door neighbor decided, at noon, that it was time for Def Jam to start up.) This is the first time today that the light of the laptop monitor hasn't made me want to puke.

goes to sit with Steph, brings some Graeters

Cereal, because it deserves its own post:

"Where's that cluestick? I need to jam it into your mouth to shut you up"

How many carbs does a cluestick have?

My god, I want a bag of potato chips. Cheddar and sour cream. Or sour cream and onion.

Dear WindSparrow and StephL

On behalf of skinny people, I apologize. Not all of us are raging, stupid assholes. In future, please feel free to viciously attack any such skinny person and bury them in a shallow grave.

Sincerely,

A Skinny Person Who Knows Better

How many carbs does a cluestick have?

A 3 lb cluestick has 247 g total carbs, but it's all fiber so it doesn't count.

Well, Matt doesn't know much about losing weight. and he is 43. But that is because his skinny days were his running days - when he could eat a couple of meals ( in one sitting ) - which helped keep him from losing weight. ( he was skinny). Not having the time to relearn how to run means he has to learn how to lose weight in this life context. However, this does not mean lecture time. and I really not sure that a friend gets away with being that clueless.

Ok. Today I have accomplished:

Shower and dress
Em to daycare
Target run
Groceries ordered
Resume updated
Cover letter and resume sent to one job

I feel better.

I think I might make a little lunch and veg for a bit.

Also? Never ever ever tell anyone how to lose weight UNLESS they ask. Wow are people fucking stooopid.

IverysadNall about me, I seem to have lost my gardening muscles. I only used the hedge clippers for 20 minutes and my arms are tired. I am going to try fro 20 with the hand clippers in a few
