Diet Nattering
about 3 days ago - No comments
A quick note on diet – After recording everything I eat for several days and trying to eat completely normal, I have learned that: – I could go completely vegetarian and not miss anything in life. I hardly eat any meat — but plenty of fish* given the chance. – I don’t eat much dairy.
Low Fat Diet

My cholesterol came back up a minuscule tick over normal and this sent my doctor into a tizzy of “lose weight/eat a low fat diet!” Here’s the problem, though — when I was losing all the weight after Katie was born, I retooled my diet and dropped a huge number of things out permanently so

I live. I was at SANSFIRE Baltimore 2010 getting my brain pulled through my nose with a hook. It mostly was hard. I tried to stuff a term’s worth of information into my head in 6 days and I’m not sure how much will stick. I am still super tired/burned out from it. Meanwhile, I
Art Weekend 2010

I have returned victorious from the fourth in a grand series of many of Art Weekends. This year it was at the Shandaken Inn in the Catskills, NY. We were a little iffy because the place looked a bit dubious in the pictures and the owner was on the premises, but it turned out fine.

It’s an enormous pain to get rid of a dead car in the State of Maryland. If your car is dead, you’re pretty much screwed unless you get aggressive with the phone and go on some sort of quest to find someone to take it. – You cannot remove insurance from a vehicle you still

My truck died and we had two days to make a decision and $5000 that we could scrape together as cash for a down payment. And here is what happened: 1. We went to Ford Dealership A to look at their used cars and this was a terrible experience. Their vehicles were in such phenomenally
No Post Thursday

I didn’t post today. But I have an excuse: the highlight of the day was a neighbor’s house being lit, quite literally, on fire. Honestly. On top of everything else, the neighbor’s house caught on fire. My poor truck is dead. It blew the head gasket which, for anyone who lives by the SE Michigan
Plowed

We are now plowed and dug out. The enormous piles of snow are a little disturbing. In theory, we could get out. And that would be nice because I really must get to CVS some time in the rather near future. Getting free of this storm was much less arduous than getting free of the
Pictures of the Third Storm

I managed to snap a few pictures out the door at the new storm. It is coming down very hard right now so going out in it was a non-starter. I have three interesting pictures – 1. The trees next to the door in the front yard are all dead. All of them. Luckily I
