I am waiting to check in for my xrays. Wish me luck.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I nearly bought some pot yesterday! Got on line at the Brookline store that just opened last weekend and, alas, it took a half-hour to work my way to the front, and then my meter time was up. Ah well. They had a coffee service and buckets of candy, which I immediately dubbed pre-Munchies.
First time I've ever been carded by a dealer.
But, I thought about how much a Brookline parking ticket would cost me, and that with the increased traffic in the neighborhood, the meter maids would be out in force, so I said screw it and left even though I was next in line.
When I got home and read through the literature, I found out that they've got free parking set up in the hotel down the road (you have to stop and get a ticket curbside) so the next time I'm over there....

My medical update is disappointing. I've been going to the nutritionist for 3 months and have been a very good girl. No processed foods, no bad carbs, nice organic foods. I even gave up coffee and wine. Lost 10 pounds. She feels as though as good as I have been I really should have lost more. So she gave me a printout of a long list of labs she wants done. I don't mind following a strict diet and exercising every day if I see real results. So, blah.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, that is a bummer, Laura.

So close and yet so far!

X-ray~ma, meara!
I'm finding "I almost bought some pot but I was afraid of getting a parking ticket" a delightful story, Theo! What a time to be alive.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
There was a news story a while ago about a state legislator who would be voting on legalizing marijuana in his state (Utah?) and - amazingly - decided he should know what it was about. So he had a friend drive him (no driving under the influence for him!) to a neighboring state where it was legal (Nevada?) and bought a little baggie of gummies. And tried them ... and didn't notice any effect.
