Imagine the ear swiveling if you had fennec foxes, instead of cats!

I just came over all nauseated and hot at work-- and now I have "Barfalicious" to the tune of "Bootylicious" stuck in my head.

2 job tasks done and off my desk. I think I should be able to go home now. instead I will see if there is more to reconcile on my boss's T&E account.

Ugh. My doctor called with lab results. Exercising every day, eating a crapton of fruit & veg, and quitting smoking have done nothing. Numbers are worse.

Why can't I be a healthy fat person? Whyyyy must I have the Death Fat? Maybe I should go on flea's dad's super restrictive diet.

Dude, what the hell? That's so unfair.

That sucks. Or wait. Maybe that means that not exercising and living on pizza and chili dogs would make things better. Because, science!

Or, sadly, not.

Yeah, she typed unhelpfully, maybe you'd be dead if you hadn't given up that stuff.

(I still feel for the friend who was diagnosed with full-blown diabetes after years of vegetarianism and marathon-running. At least, she said, it wasn't like she had to make a whole bunch of painful lifestyle changes.)

Maybe that means that not exercising and living on pizza and chili dogs would make things better. Because, science!

I mean, it sounds like at least an experiment is in order, no?

Sorry, shrift. Have a nice glass of diet water to comfort yourself?

low-fat diet water.

Calli, I am no pet expert but I do know cats are prone to asthma, and a barking cough sounds like it may be asthma. My old cat (who I won't name here in order to spare meara confusion ;-)) had it and her primary symptom was coughing in her sleep.

Which reminds me, sorry for the confusion meara. I have never kneaded and drooled over Cody's jackets. Perhaps I'll stop there.

Ugh shrift, that's frustrating. At the same time, it's only a single snapshot of your health, it doesn't mean the changes have amounted to nothing. It can take a while for the benefits to become visible even though they are there.

That sucks, shrift!

hmm, maybe oatmeal?

Which reminds me, I should make some oatmeal. I've been living on toast and frozen pumpkin muffins for the last few weeks, and that's just not good.

I'm going to complain about my fitness as well. I spent about ten or twelve weeks unable to run because my feet were giving me so much trouble. Finally in early November they seemed to be getting better, so I started running again, using Zombies, Run! (Which is great.) So here I am about a month into the program, and I'm not getting any faster. In fact, my average pace is going down.

To be fair, I feel a little better, and I'm doing a lot of hills, but it's damned frustrating that it's taking so long to get my conditioning back. I dislike getting old! (Although it's better than the alternative.)
