Office move & diet

I've officially moved to the Chantilly office. I'm so out of shape that I am actually sore from it. Three boxes and a laptop. I'm sore from moving three boxes and a laptop. Heavy, book and supply filled boxes, but still. I've decorated. Pictures are up. Kung Fu Dancing Hamster and the plushy red octopus are in their new spots. My 'The B Word' calendar is hanging on the wall (The caption for June is 'Being unstable and bitchy is all part of my mystique'. Note the similarly themed icon. *points*) and my Happy Bunny 'whatever you moron' sticker is prominently displayed. All homey now.

I did not get home without hitting rain yesterday, but I had the two boxes that were exposed wedged up against the truck cab, so most of the rain flew over them. By the time a got home, you couldn't tell they'd gotten wet at all. Whew!

Becky has been after me to try out the diet she's been doing so well on. Becky is a phenomenally picky eater, so it says something that she's been able to stick this diet out for so long. I balked and balked, so today, to force the issue, Becky has made double portions of all her meals - 'cause she's cool and motherly like that. We has a strawberry banana smoothie for breakfast (with pasteurized egg yolks in it for protein). Our mid-morning snack was a turkey sausage patty and a banana. So far it's all been pretty good - not as good as regular fat-laden food, but pretty good.

We'll see if I can get through the day without dipping into the Pringles in my desk drawer or the Hershey's bar in my laptop case. Oh! Chocolate!

You can do it!

Mmm Chocolate... but just think. Every chocolate bar, has at least 8 bugs legs in it.

Hey, if eating bugs is good enough for the starving pygmies in New Guinea, it's good enough for me.

Ok, I'm a little bit punchy today. /inane goofiness (for the moment)

That's because for the Pygmies, they're big. And won't get stuck in people's teeth. LOL

Who cares if they are stupid? No one's going to judge you. Hell, I watch Degrassi. I'm 33 freakin' years old and I watch Degrassi.
