If anything, I guess it will help me appeal to my vanity to stop eating all the things because of anxiety, although vanity as a motivator gets less compelling as I get older. Especially since I'm fit enough to walk 9 miles and barely feel tired. Unfortunately, exercise alone will not defeat the pooch, because otherwise it'd be gone by now.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
They are pretty common around here, actually, but I don't usually see them when I can stop and watch them for a little while. So that was nice.

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
Hooray -t!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Bah -- I didn't get the job I interviewed for a hundred years ago. Ah well. Not entirely surprising, and I'm not sure I wanted it anyway, but I wanted them to want me!!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Successfully earwormed by SCOTUS Jesse. Who knew that was even on my bucket list my daily todo list?

Luckily, I didn't need them to need me?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Congratulations, -t!
They're fools, Jesse. Everyone should want you.
shrift, I feel you on the exercise alone not getting rid of the pooch. The last component I'm having trouble implementing is the eating. I enjoy food too much, but I need to be careful because it's sabotaging the rest of my hard work.

Ann, that's a ferret.
It looks very, very ugly out there.

For me it's the opposite - I can regulate diet without much difficulty as long as it's something extreme and organized, but I have trouble mustering the motivation to do enough exercise needed to capitalize on the nutrition. Hopefully now that I proved to myself that I can fit in 4 miles a day during my "Oh noes, I'm a blimp!" panic the week before my vacation, I'll be able to keep up with something approaching that at get into better shape.
