Grand Geyser: Worth the Wait

Grand Geyser, the largest predictible geyser in the world, is worth waiting for. Its eruptions are truly spectacular, and its very satisfying to wait patiently for Mother Nature to put on her best show for you…there’s something wonderful about the way we have no control at all over what these natural wonders do.

Find out when it’s predicted, pack a snack and some water, and go.

Abby's diet started today

The other day, I noticed she was starting to look like an ottoman—a little round footstool with short legs—and it was time for action.

I’m starting by feeding her half a can of quality wet food every day. This is the plan: it will will be down for 20 minutes each morning and 20 minutes each night. The pet store guy says this will start her losing the 2-3 lbs she needs to drop. She’s up to 15 pounds now. Yowsa.

This may also bring her skittish sister around to acting a little less feral (since she’ll have to interact with me if she wants to eat).

thirteen steps forward, three steps back...

Yay South Beach! Lost 13 lbs in Phase 1, but now am stuck (and backsliding a little) in Phase 2. Which, if I’m honest, isn’t so much Phase 2 as “How I Normally Ate Before But Without All The Carb Binging,” which isn’t really the same thing.

So the lower in fat plan (without cheating) starts at lunch today. Let’s get this train moving again!

Tom Cruise is a raving idiot

Like you needed me to tell you that.

But here are 15,000+ people who agree with me (and counting)!
