Depressed.
Snookums is threatening to hide our scales again because of the way they can wreck my entire self-worth in two seconds. I just don’t understand how I can work out five times a week, guzzle liters of water every day, cut out all snacks and fizzy drinks, eat nothing but three square meals a day (with no seconds) and STILL gain two pounds in three days. Obviously it’s not a real gain; either my lower number was false due to dehydration (which means I’ve essentially stayed the same weight for the past week), or my higher number is false due to water retention (for no comprehensible reason). But WHY? I haven’t done anything differently. I need to live in a universe that is controllable. I need to think that 2+2=4. Because to accept otherwise renders this whole exercise pointless. If nothing I do makes any difference, why not give up?
Yeah, he probably should hide those scales.

Whoopie Pies
I can confirm that Whoopie Pies are a staple in northeastern Indiana. My Mom used to make both the chocolate and the pumpkin versions. I believe that the local version used the Crisco-and-sugar mixture in the middle.

is fighting with Visio. Is there a nicer, faster way to create a simple, non-fugly flowchart?
@brodrigu I’m stuck on a PC at work, unfortunately.
has lost more tweets today. And here I was just yesterday recommending Twitter as a serious business opportunity. Grrrr.
@mrs_sockvictim Be strong! You’re the Mama Monkey and the monkeys always win. They won’t even remember it in 2 days, promise.
has invented a Time Team drinking game: Drink whenever Geophysics is useless. I am not responsible if this game gives you alcohol poisoning.
feels like a zombie. Two nights of cats keeping us up. Snookums says: I told you so. Caffeine not helping. Urge to kill rising…
@gadgetgirl70 Sure, if by “going out” you mean “hanging with my beeyotches at knitting group.”
thought knitting podcasts might soothe rage & headache. Didn’t realize David Reidy put effing BAGPIPE SOLO in middle of an episode. GAHH.
@michaelengle Undo it! Put tip of left needle into stitch BELOW the purl, slide it off right needle, & pull free. Then purl again looser. 🙂
