Drew, that sounds awful. I hope the doctors figure it out soon!
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Every time I get up, or walk across the room, the cat dashes into the kitchen. As if, "Maybe this time you'll feed me!" The sad thing is, I free-feed; there's always food there. Half the time when I think he wants wet food and I put it down, he walks away. And then starts wailing.
Conclusion: cat is a spoiled rotten brat.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My mother is so weird. I was talking to her before and complaining about chalk dust getting all over me. So she started googling. She sent me a link to a teachers message board where other people were complaining about chalk dust, and then a link to a video of a Phish song called "Chalk Dust Torture."

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
There's a Mexican restaurant in Seattle that served tequila flights, or at least there used to be.
Mexico Cantina.
Cass! You need to takes me therrrrrr! Why did you not take me there?
They randomly send me email.
Apparently flights of tequila can lead to me giving my email address out.
True... you do have self-control issues around tequila...

I feel odd even asking this, but I'm wondering if any of us have had any luck with a non-prescription appetite suppressant. Or, conversely, tried one that did not work.
I've been having pretty good luck working on portion control...a longtime nemesis...by using an online food journal. Perhaps as a result, all I'm doing is thinking about food. It's annoying.
The food journal has been really interesting in one respect. It gives you the percentage nutrients you consume each day, based on a desired 40-30-30 split.
I've been amazed at how, when I'm eating 'normally', meaning being thoughtful and enjoying healthier foods, I don't come even remotely close to 30% fat. An average day is more like 10-12%. That surprised me.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I have a scar on my right leg from a golf cart accident on campus.
A friend broke her foot in a golf cart accident. I don't think anyone involved was drunk, but it was the day before tech and there might have been a bit of recklessness and stupidity involved.

Drink. I've read that the capsules are less effective because they don't contain all the epigallicatechinadingdongs that work best in synergy, or something. Never used them, anyway.
