Good for you, Sail. I gained weight yesterday, but suspect that it may be related to the large piece of cheesecake I had for breakfast. In the name of research, I swears! I had oatmeal today.

I love that Liese went instantly into teacher mode.

Oops! It's a reflex.

It's just funny, my girls complain about the pain all the time and are always startled when I'm all, uh-huh, tough it out, the pain gets you something.

I, too, am a total fail at juice type fasts. My headache was so intense the last time I tried that I couldn't really do anything but sleep.

sj, I am just catching up and saw your excellent news. Hurray! I just had a feeling that was meant to be your house. I'm so excited for you.

And anyone who would turn down a smonster booty call? Is...well, yeah. I don't even know. Missing out, to say the least. Smonster, your relationship with StW reminds me so much of a guy I "dated" (same sort of thing) in college. We ended up being really good friends, but he broke my heart so many times I can't even tell you. If you ever want to talk about it, I'm here.

Oh Jilli, I'm so sorry. ETA: about the welts. Happy about the evil brain fog lifting!

Also:

I've been doing a bit of stress eating since Christmas and have gained weight. Dont know how much, but my clothes don't fit right. I'm going back to healthier eating

This is me. Stress eating combined with a torn ligament before Christmas = body image demons.

Omnis, you were in my dream last night. You told me I was ruining the sound design programs because I was talking up sound design too much at school and too many applicants were flooding the school and they sucked. Wow. What it wrong with my brain??

Third cup of coffee:

Laga, I'd really like to see you before you leave, but I can't make it down today. Sad face.

I've been doing a bit of stress eating since Christmas and have gained weight. Dont know how much, but my clothes don't fit right. I'm going back to healthier eating.

My stress eating has been completely out of control for months and my exercise has fallen way off. Hopefully with all things housing falling into place I can start getting back on track.

Omnis, continued housing~ma headed your way. I hope your short sale goes through.

I meant to also say, thank you everyone for all your good wishes. I don't know how I would get through these stressful situations without this place.

Laga, good luck with your moving sale today.

I am still in bed trying to motivate getting up out of it.

Jilli - boo for neck welter but yay for other progress!

ChiKat- omg, that kind of making out is soooooo awesome. We hardly ever do that anymore but I have the fondest of memories about early on activities of that nature. I agree you need it after this week. Hope you are doing ok.

Smonster, sorry about the crappy sleep.

I need to be semiproductive today and gather my tax stuff to send to our accountant via email, but otherwise looking at another luxuriously lazy day.

The fingertip pain is the reason I gave up on guitar lessons. I realized I didn't actually want it that much!

Jilli, I'm glad the brain fog is gone! May you find the cause of the welts soon. And may it be not gluten!

Good luck with the sale, Laga!

Laga, I highly recommend Freecycle for making everything left over disappear.

Liese, no oops! Only awesome!

Begone to the BIDs!! Leave Pix be!!

If you ever want to talk about it, I'm here.

Aww, thanks. I mean, he was already in bed and doing work reading, and lives about 20 min across town. More like a raincheck than a diss. I'm well aware I may end up getting my heart broken worse than I ever have before, but I'm just kicking that can down the road a bit. I procrastinate everything else, why not heartbreak? So far, he's still worth it.

Play through the pain, Zenkitty!
