There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!

Ann, that's a ferret.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I will send my Thanks in a form of a letter to Kirk Douglas since clearly you are all trying to tell me that HE was my Secret Santa. Very Well.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ack!! That sounds horrible! I mean, dark chocolate, yay, but...do you have to eat all soup and yogurt and stuff? That would make me bonkers.

Wait, what? Are you okay? Not to pry, just...poor you! I would go mad.

Well, it was a surprise revelation from my orthodontist yesterday--I thought I was going in for a tightening, and instead she installed hardware behind my front teeth to keep my teeth from closing up, i.e. can't chew *anything*. Surprise! Happy new year! I'm still in the first 24 hour shock of it all. So far I've been able to eat yogurt and mashed potatoes. Pasta was a fail. Gotta break out the blender to puree stuff from now on. Also, I expect to be supremely bitchy by the end of the week.

Oh, Polgara, that sounds miserable.

As others mentioned elsewhere, I think the only way I would get through that is to use it as a forced get healthier period. Protein smoothies and some detox drinks and even then I would be mad at my dentist.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

See, I think the only way I would get through it is with milkshakes. Lots of milkshakes. And ice cream.

I would want to do msbelle's plan, but I would end up on Dana's.

That's one hell of a bait and switch. I hope you find many delicious, manageable options.
