wow!
I have lost enough weight that my wedding rings fit again. Yay! Wow! Now my fingers are all itchy and weird from wearing rings. :) Gaming last night was, as usual, fun. I really must try to get my act together and do some writeups. We’re halfway through the San Francisco adventure and I haven’t even written up most of the first New Orleans adventure. Bad Kit! Let’s see, what else. Did a little Christmas shopping today. Got a mailbox stuffed full of stuff (Geni! We have mincemeat! Thank you!)…

weighing in and stuff
Official weigh-in: down 1 more pound, for a total of 11 pounds lost (earlier in the week it was 12, but today’s the official weigh-in day, so oh well). Been editing a paper for Ted. Now off to write, walk, and very likely write some more. I’ll be around later when the chapter is done. *vroom*
