So ready to be home that I double posted, apparently...
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

I swear, if I end up spending the night in Chicago, I may have to hurt someone. I am SO READY to be HOME.
meara, if you do get stuck here, let me know! I've got a bed you can use (I usually end up sleeping on the couch anyway), and I'm only a 20-minute drive from O'Hare.

Aww, thanks Kathy! The good thing IS that I know lots of people in Chicago that I'd be happy to have dinner or a drink with....I just realllllly want to be home in my own bed.

Can you get to your e-mail? I can send my phone number to your profile addy if you do end up here overnight.

Yes, thank god, I've got a new cellphone-broadband card for the work computer.
I think right now they're anticipating us getting in twenty minutes before the other flight takes off. Maybe. Right now we dont' have a plane. I'm just saying, they SHOULD"VE put me on the earlier flight...

My phone number's on its way to you now.
Like I said in the e-mail, I hope you do get home tonight, but if not, I'd love to see you!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck, meara!
Everyone should anticipate me being obsessed with the calorie counts everywhere for a while. In the window of Dunkin Donuts just now: "Free Iced Coffee Day! 25 calories."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My mom went for a while to a residential weight-loss program (she was there for about three weeks, and then following the program at home for about a year) that was about 1200 calories per day. She said that at first she felt hungry, but then after a little while, it felt like the right amount to eat.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
When I was tracking my diet on Fitday, I never once believed its calorie count - it always pegged me at around 1400-1600 calories a day, which I just plain knew wasn't the case. Eventually I gave up on it altogether.
The only thing that's ever been helpful for me in losing weight was going off the pill. I pretty much dropped 20 lbs overnight without trying.

Yeah, but then you got knocked up.
