I have never been to Tijuana or a live sex show.

I have been glared at by hookers.

My mom is on a sort of modified Atkins diet, where it's low-carb but also low fat. She's lost 30-something pounds, which is very exciting.

Losing 30-something pounds does sound exciting! However, I don't think it would be practical for me to try. I cannot live without the tasty potato. It would be an Atkins exercise in futility.

I know!

I know. She tells me the whole thing about how you stop craving things and you feel full with less food and you have more energy, but I think it's a myth, like those endorphins you supposedly get from exercising.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Shit - Does anyone have the recipe for the CI spice cake? I want to make it for NYE, but of course the original link has expired.

[eta: nevermind, I found it. Apparently I emailed it to ita a few months ago when she asked the same question.]

The only time I stop craving things is when I'm horribly ill. I'd rather not associate mealtimes with deathtimes!

I think "smaller portions" + "more exercise" - "snacking" = "slightly more feasible for me".

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Jessica - is this it? [link]

Well, it's there for anyone else, even ifmy awesomeness was thwarted by Jessica's smartness.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I think "smaller portions" + "more exercise" - "snacking" = "slightly more feasible for me".

ditto.

That's it too! Thanks Aims.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I have actually experienced the mythic endorphin rush. But it's a rare thing.

I will never stop craving sugar or potatoes. Never.

We had a split lip incident. It's amazing what an ice cream snow man will do to alleviate the pain and tears.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
