New Year's Resolutions

Well, now that I've got 43 things to do over at the website 43 Things, it would seem that I have a ready made list from which to choose. I think these three would be the most beneficial.

1. Lose 30 Pounds by following the South Beach Diet.
2. Exercise at least three times per week.
3. Continue to work on changing my career to one more suited to my interests and talents.

I am a Brie cheese. I am a fine, triple creme boursin.

OK, this evening I topped out the scales at a whopping 200 lbs. Twenty Six Percent Body Fat. I am a Brie cheese. I am a fine, triple creme boursin.

The time for South Beach Diet Phase 1, she is here. The hour? Arrived. The moment? At hand.

Also, my friend Larry (who’s going on the trip I won with me) has now lost more than ten pounds on South Beach. And he’s doing this as vegetarian, which makes his choices more limited. He is a South Beach God. I revere him.

Dammit, if he can do it, I can do it. 8 days until the trip, 8 days to lose some of this weight, and, frankly, feel better about myself, too. Off we go.

Edited to note that I seem to have an SBD ally and neighbor. I may have to capitalize on this.

Merry Christmas!


Abby, Suzy and I wish a Merry Christmas to all.

Ignore the look in Abby's eyes. She's happy to see you. Really.

We need a little Christmas . . .

Today is just dragging by at work. It's not even like I don't have anything to do, which is the usual case. I just cannot get myself motivated. At least it's Friday, so a blessed weekend of rest, relaxation, and not being in this place lies ahead of me.

Christmas Cards: All sent.

Christmas Shopping: Still have to do all of it, except for Aunt Esther.

Diet: Back on South Beach Phase 1, day 2.

Job Status: Still no word from AIG. Now the career counselor tells me I need to go into hospitality management? Eek. One thing at a time, missy. Still, going to an NYU open house next Tuesday.

This is Just a Test Message

This is just a test message to see what's up with things not posting over here. Very strange. I wonder if this will show up?

In other news, almost finished my Christmas cards tonight! Yay!
