Zilli has this habit of, shortly after we go to bed, going into the bathroom where the kitty litter is and scraping around in there for quite a while, and then frequently coming out and running around the house meowing his fool head off as loudly as he can. Doesn’t seem to matter what time we go to bed. If we go to bed at the same time he does it after we’re both in bed; if we go to bed separately he does it after the second person has…
culture thingy
I have a Superman t-shirt with the big S on the front. I’ve also got a Batman t-shirt. I feel…somewhat self-conscious wearing these shirts in this country (particularly the Superman one, because it is So! Blue! and So! Red! and So!

the damage [ww lock]
I told myself I didn’t have to get back on the scale until the 25th as long as I ate well during the four weeks after Christmas.

I feel better. I’ve got to just do that in the morning, I think. Blood stirring and all that. Stir stir stir. I keep waking up at 6:30 anyway. Perhaps I should just convince myself to get out of bed then. I don’t know how to *do* that, mind you, short…
that’s it, charlie.
1100 words. Screw it; I’m going for a nice long walk. It’s a beautiful day and I’m not spending any more of it at the keyboard. The exercise will almost certainly do me good, anyway, and might help to focus my little tiny mind a bit more. ytd wordcount: 20,000
