Dieting tip from our new tech guy: drink cold water. The very act of our body warming up ice cold water to body temperature so that it can digest it burns calories, apparently. The tip about eating celery was futile, though, since I have to eat it with either cream cheese or ranch dressing negates any negative calorie benefits.
Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Random: I really wish, when women change their name on getting married, that they would at least leave their maiden name in the middle on Facebook. I lose track of who people are!
I drink a ridiculous amount of water and iced tea. It's not unusual for me to not pee from 7:00 AM to about 4:00 PM if I am working. It's nuts and probably bad for me but not unusual.
I need a nap. I don't want to do anything. And my car continues to act up. I picked it up yesterday after $600 in repairs and I got halfway to UCLA when the check engine light came back on. Sigh.
Also a chicken appeared at my house this afternoon. Not a nice roasted chicken, but a living walking one.

I thought that was standard practice. But I never changed my name, so I really don't know.
Also, I'm a camel.
And I thought the point of being a camel was that you could drink a lot one day and the not need any water for a week or two. But it doesn't sound like that is what you mean, sarameg, so I am lost. Unless you are literally a camel, which would make buying bathing suits much more challenging than I had supposed.
Dinner tonight is a fancy salad - multiple ingredients, some of which had to be sliced or chopped! I feel very grown-up. Eating in front of the TV.
That sucks about the car, Kat. And the not peeing while at work. I don't know how to react to the chicken. They are really good at eating wasps.

Chickens are carnivores?!
They just got way creepier.

It could still have potential.
Chickens are omnivores. And sometimes cannibals. I don't think I am helping.
I thought that was standard practice.
I'm seeing a surprising number of women just ditch their old name altogether. And I just mean on FB -- I realize when most women change their name IRL they don't use both, but the internet!
