I asked Ted if he’d like me to make him a sandwich, and he said yes please, and then I asked Shaun, and he said please, too. I queried after what kind they each wanted (turkey and roast beef, respectively), and, to Shaun, “Sprouts?” Yes. “Chips?” “No,” Shaun said, “but maybe some pickles? And–” and then he looked very guilty and began laughing, “And could you bring me up a soda?” More guilt, and, “I’m sitting here dorking around at the computer, while you guys are… but after all,” he…
Daily entry 8/18
As Ted said a couple of days ago, “Losing weight isn’t what’s hard. What’s hard is changing your habits.” For some reason that’s really stuck with me. I feel like I actually am changing my habits, on a variety of levels. For example, I would really generally have something good for me now than have sweets (where sweets equal cake, candy, ice cream, cookies, that sort of thing): pineapple or apples or grapes or other natural sweets are much more appealing to me now.

music meme
Gacked from Russ. Go to musicoutfitters and put your birth year into the search blicky. The first link is likely the top 100 songs of that year. Cut and paste that list here. Bold the ones you actually like. Understand that the word “like” in this case means, in the very least, “wouldn’t immediately change the radio station from.” Pick a favorite. Underline that favorite. (…I think two thirds of the songs I know on this list I know from somebody remaking it in the eighties. There are many I…
things I collect
Things I collect, as re-discovered while doing a vicious cleaning: Bookmarks. Particularly unicorn bookmarks, many of which have dorky little unicorns on them, but almost all of which say things that I like. If there’s ever any doubt my heart is in the clouds, just check out the bookmark collection. Old correspondence, from the days before widespread email useage. I cannot, at the moment, decide if I should keep this stuff or not, which means that I will. Also: my character Kit’s entire online roleplay history from Classic X-MUSH, save…
