What about cheerios?
or making a smoothie with oatmeal and fruit and milk

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
The cable guy was just here, upgrading. Hmming and poking at meters and things, I hear, sotto voce, "Hsss, these things don't usually do that."
"You don't usually see this in a large appliance," I said, offhand.
Guy cracked up. "Ghostbusters!" he muttered with a grin.
Day? Made.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm going to switch to Splenda or aspertame with coffee and see if that makes a difference.
Stevia! Much better option. And yeah, I get a lot of my oatmeal in smoothies. Less trouble than cooking in this hot climate.

Also, Matt, it sounds counterintuitive, but try a little coconut oil in your oatmeal--it actually helps lower cholesterol. Might help with the liver, too. We throw in a handful of walnut pieces and dried cranberries and a dash of pumpkin pie spice (cinnamon, ginger, clove), and it's pretty good.
I like your design, Gud.
I'll second the 'tornadoes bad! Raises good!' sentiments.
That stage sounds more like an ER triage than a theater, sophia.

I don't like the taste of Stevia, personally. But it's worth trying for those who don't mind it.
That's terrific, Bev!

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)
I use stevia in my coffee and I haven't noticed any taste difference from real sugar. I love it!

I skipped running tonight. But it sounds like a long-planned trip down to Portland this weekend is not going to happen, sadly--three of my friends canceled. So at least I can go to running Saturday morning.

Silver lining, I guess. I need to make myself a schedule that includes running time, my half-assed plans to start training again after work on the days when I don't have Tai Chi or bellydance or before work any time have not panned out at all. Need to go full-ass with the plans.
I have my red clothes (plus nevertheless shirt in black) ready for tomorrow. I impulse bought a blue leather jacket because it was marked waaaaaay down and it reminded me of Buffy, so I think I will wear that on Friday, although I will have to figure out what to put under it. And I have plenty of clean clothes to choose from for Thursday. So my morning wardrobe challenges should be minimal. And I have the Gooseberry Bluff audiobook that I don't think I ever listened to, so that's my evening entertainment and then some. This is amazingly on top of things for me lately, so I'm gonna enjoy it.
