I found the magic bullet for losing weight!

Starve yourself.....

No, just kidding. Not that I'm losing a ton of weight but it does seem like keeping busy and avoiding boredom (by not watching tv, eating, drinking alcohol) helps in my efforts. Though I do miss just watching tv by myself while Steve is at school and Gretchen is sleeping. I will have to make some time to lie around... Hee!

....I wanna go here

This is such a weird picture - for some reason it made me think of Pan's Labyrinth (movie) that we just saw this past weekend.

Facebook Frenzy

I got on the web 2.0 train at the beginning of the year and I never thought I would get anyone to use the sites I was on (facebook, flickr, myspace, blogger). And so I didn't try too hard but in the last month, it seems like Facebook took off. I finally got some friends on it and they got some friends on it, and so on and so on. I like Facebook way more than twitter and myspace. The CEO of Facebook is in his 20s! It will be interesting to see where all this goes...

Other than blowing my free time on Facebook, I've been working on my music collection. Steve and I both have iPods now (replacing other brands). I am not a huge fan of iTunes but I'm adjusting. Between ripping CDs to our iPods and answering trivia questions on Facebook my ass has left a serious imprint on my computer chair. With school coming (3 hour lectures once a week), it's not going to get better. I haven't found anything interesting to post lately but I'm sure something will turn up. I'm avoiding politics right now but with the anniversary of 9/11 upon us, I'm sure something will get my attention.

Weight Watchers is a cult

says my friend Kris yet she and I drag our fat asses to Saturday's "cult" meeting for the weekly weigh in. Whatever they are, it works for me. I am always amazed when I realize it's not that hard to eat "healthy". I LIKE vegetables! Why can't I do it all the time - I dunno. Character deficiency? I'm a fat slob? Well, I do eat when I'm bored, upset, drunk or hungry..... Hmm.... My problem is I like to eat pizza and not just a little of it (plus I wash it down with beer). I like to have a Crown and Coke or two on the weekend... I can still do those things but not like it's my last day on earth..... Wish me luck....
