I've finally pulled out Ray, the trusty light box.
Hee. I never named my light box...but considering how many years it has gotten me through dark days, I should throw it a party.
Last year was an anomaly though. Didn't pull it out once. So far this year, there has been sufficient light. I wonder if I've outgrown SAD. Nah. Remind me I asked that in the middle of December.
Thans for the recap, Dana. My recording cut off before the field goal, though I inferred that from the final score. Craziness. And good for Sharper, he was on the hunt.
Okay, has anyone seen Battle of the Blades? I heard about it on NPR and now I'm obsessed with trying to see it (can't get to youtube at work).

I've been trying to avoid it, Kat. CBC should have it online, but if you can see it outside of Canada, I don't know.
I must say it's hard to get excited about voting when the candidates for the two positions are running unopposed.
In mememe news, I've finally decided--I've got an appointment with my doctor on Thursday to talk to her about lap-band surgery. I told myself I wasn't going to do it, that it was the easy way out and mutilation of my body, but I'm getting way too big and having problems, so I have to do something. Insurance will cover surgery, but not a diet-food progam that I can't afford to purchase on my own, so I'm going with that.
Here's hoping that I can lose enough weight next year so I can at the very least be able to fly without having to buy two seats (which is why I don't fly Southwest). That's only about half of what I want to lose, so it'll take me a few years to get down to my target weight. Maybe by the time I finish my MLS I can be at a weight where I feel comfortable with job interviews again.
Insurance will cover surgery
Awesome! (I don't know, all I've been hearing about lately is stuff insurance WON'T cover, so it's good to hear they actually cover important procedures every now and then.)
Good luck, Kathy. That can't have been an easy decision.
Finally caught up. Long weekends always put me behind on the board (I took Friday off to get out of Salem for the weekend).
Calling back to the candy discussion last week, I just tried Maltesers for the first time (a Canadian I work with brings back candy from there all the time) and OMG, SO GOOD! I've always loved Whoppers, but these are so much better. Nom nom nom!
