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

Where are you going overseas, -t?

Amsterdam, Faroe Islands, and Iceland. Wheeeee!

Ooh, I was gonna make a vacation playlist. I've only got, like, three songs in mind, but still.

Cooking Light cheats for sure; every ingredient they use must be chosen for the calorie count, and their portions are ridiculously tiny. So now if I'm counting I do it myself, PITA that it is.

Disappointing! Got a good recipe-calorie-counter? I figure there's got to be a good one out there but the few times I've tried I haven't found it.

Hey. New board.

I am a masochist and build them myself using MyFitnessPal on my phone. It ain't bad but it is slow. If you have recipes you make a lot though, add once and reuse works fine.

I tend to count for a couple of weeks here and there when I realize I have fallen on the ice cream every night habit, my body readjust to the lower intske, and then I can drop counting for a few months. So I have never looked for a more sustainable solution. If I needed to make it a more continuous habit I would do more looking for some sort of magic auto scanner.

I have 7dozen snickerdoodles I'm taking to work. I have a dozen I'm shipping to a coworker. Possibly through work, boss idea. I got my state tax refund today. All I got. Autocorrect hates me.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

SuziQ, house-ma. It's a huge PITA, buying OR selling. You have my sympathies.

Juliebird, it sucks, but it sounds like prison might be the best option for your brother. I feel so badly about your family situation.

Woowhee -- long, busy day. But productive -- I consider it a win.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

He sounds like he's an ex-Microsoft person, because the amount of acronyms made up and used at random there is impossible to keep track of.

Amazon has an acronym page on the internal wiki. I've worked here less than three weeks and I've already come across one that's not listed, and NOBODY on my team knows what it stands for.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

The salad was raw "massaged" kale with rhubarb

I would slap anyone who offered me "massaged" kale.

OK, no I wouldn't, but I would roll my eyes thoroughly and then write something snarky about it.

I'm having serious social hangover anxiety, wondering why I say or do anything ever, so beginning a slapping tradition is probably not good for my mental health.

Perhaps you need a Slap Bet? :)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Massaged kale actually changes the texture and taste of raw kale and makes it edible.

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

found a local non-chain grill place, nicer than just burger, not so nice that mac was turned off. I had a giant salad, plus the side salad that came with mac's dinner and then a dessert. It was too much. I am too uncomfortable to sleep even after a shower. food needs to digest faster.
