Man, tracking calories is a buzzkill. I'm not over my daily limit, but only because I had my salad with no dressing and without the tortilla chip strips on top. Brown Rice and Beans for dinner, man. And nothing to drink but water and iced tea, for like the rest of my life.

I am going to lose weight though.

And you know what else? I AM going to get my house in shape. Vacations are not going to really be a reality, not even long weekends, for a while, so my energy and money is going into my house. Envelope saving starts today for electrical work.

Jessica, that's awesome. Shall add it to today's linkspam.

No lie! After a certain point, I found myself treating it like a game, but not until I'd started seeing the payoff. Before the payoff, it's just misery. Good luck with it.

Before I knew the gender of my roommate's new kittens, I tried to convince her to name them Troy and Abed.

Here are some pictures for people who, like me, saw people talking about college football outfits I mean uniforms, but not the actual things themselves: [link]

That's going straight into the iTunes Roller Derby Playlist.

Jesse, the news radio station I listen to in the mornings had the new uniforms as their call-in question of the day. People who didn't like them seemed to have a slight edge. One person said his kid couldn't figure out why there were three teams on the field (the uniforms have a different design on each side ... or maybe it's just the helmets ... I really don't care).

Well, it doesn't help that the maryland State flag is the godawfulest flag ever. Fugly.

Do you have Anna Karina's "Roller Girl"? 'Cuz you need it and I can hook you up.

Good news: it is cool enough that we opened our house up! YAY!

Bad news: Opening the house up...to allergens. My nose was so stuffed/running like mad last night that I couldn't sleep until 7 am. And my eyes are swollen like a turgid member in a bad romance novel. (Ew, the visual on that simile.)

Good news: All the pets are alive!

Bad news: They all have fleas.

Good news: I got work done this weekend!

Bad news: I didn't complete anything, and I am now taking a break from working since I can't type for 30 secs without blowing my nose. I am totally a mouth-breather today, yo.

Going to shower allergens out of my hair and head to Target for Benadryl since the daily allergy meds are not cutting it. Bleargh.

Bad: My house is a mess.

Badder: It will have to stay a mess until tomorrow, because any dust or cleaning fumes going up my nose today will exacerbate The Clog/Runny Nose of Doom.

Good: I think I can manage to put the clean laundry away.
