Something for the Good Things tumbler?

Sure!

I have to finish my taxes soon, and meh. I need to find some forms. Also, relatedly, I think I'm not going to go to the crossword tournament this year, which is a bummer.

Whew, I finally got the chicken that was supposed to be last night's dinner in the oven. Pretty simple meal, too, I just had to rest after every.single.step. But I soon I will have deliciousness, and for several meals after, probably.

Yay, surround sound system set-up! Also yay tax wrestling, not for the big bill outcome and needing to do more of it, but for doing any. I need to do some more work on mine - I think I'll get a refund, so the earlier I finish the better, and yet, procrastination beckons.

Hey, L'oreal is looking for men to try products at home, if we know anyone who might be interested. Sign up here: [link] It's fun because they send you free shit.

I got my brows waxed. Whew. They were starting to talk to each other at night. Annoying.

I tried some Stila lip stain at the store, and while it's a pretty color, I am wearing it to see how long it lasts. I'm thinking that I might like Benefit's stain/gloss stick combo better, since the stain doesn't add moisture. Anyone used the Benefit lip stain? Likes, dislikes?

I also made it to the grocery store AND I got my Slacker Secret Santa present from Israel, which I squeed about in Good Riddance 2010! What a nice Saturday!

I think that enduring the wind and snow today means that I deserve some soda bread. I wonder if I can find some.

You absolutely deserve soda bread.
 
And huh, I totally let a pot boil dry while doing all the wrangling. Perhaps I should be less self-congratulatory. But, I did not burn down the house so at least I`m not on fire?

No wonder I`m still hungry. Ok, now to to get going on the laundry.

Regarding eliminating cheese, eggs, etc., to lower cholesterol, I've read a lot of boring-ass medical studies on it, and -- overall, in large population studies -- it's not really that effective.

Yeah, I've been reading the same thing. Basically I'm resigning myself to more oatmeal and going to the gym 5 days a week.

Which -- maybe I have a disconnect, here. When people make oatmeal at home, do they just cook it in water and then eat it plain?

Close to it. I'll add some fruit and a drizzle of something sweet, but it's a sugar explosion that I'm trying to avoid, not fat.

I love a savory breakfast!

Ooh. Thanks for that link, lisah! I totally prefer savory things for breakfast.

Even though I have a cold, I was thinking that I could maybe go outside and walk, but the sideways snow has convinced me to stay inside. I'll do laundry, and consider whether I currently have the lung capacity to clean the bathroom.

Ooh, what size were the Fluevogs, Jilli?

I am being strong and reselling two of the six dresses. And at least three of the petticoats. That way I should come close to breaking even.

Now I want oatmeal. I blame all of you.
