PhatinPhx is a blogger who recently commented to one of my entries. I checked out her blog and methinks she could use some bloggy love and support. So, please pop over, follow and let's draw her into the community. :D
Also, Kristen at Kreating Kristen (formerly The Fat Chick Weigh) is having a really bad go of it. Please go and give her some support, hugs and uplift her?
Today is sucking ass for me. Not food wise. That is good. I find that recovery from a higher calorie day isn't the big, scary, hairy deal it used to be for me. It isn't my head. That is behaving fairly well. My headache is sticking to the background for the most part. No... It is my frakking hip. It is bad. I am trying to stay as quiet as I can, move slowly and genlty and try to keep my weight off it as much as I can and I am going to rest it, today. Hopefully these measures will get me back to somewhat normal, tomorrow. Bleargh! I am getting tired of this shit.
Thunderstorms are rolling in, the humidity is rapidly rising and a flash flood alert just came down from the NWS in Flagstaff. We might be in for a bit of rock and roll. This Monsoon Season has been a bit of a bust, so far. What storms we have had haven't been much to write home about. I would like to see us get at least one really good banger and crasher before the season ends. In preparation, I gave my grill a cleaning and tucked it in under it's plastic.
I have itchy spots all over, from my face to my feet. I am getting eaten alive by mosquitoes. The little bastards have decided that I am a tasty dactyl. The itching is driving me insane. I am trying not to scratch the bites on my face but sometimes I just can't stand not to. We don't normally have mosquitoes around here, some jackwagon must have some standing water around their house. And I know that some of them are from going out to the lake. Ugh! I haven't had mosquito bites in years and I am not enjoying them, one little bit.
Shit! I think that one of those little fuckers got me on my ear lobe! Waaahhh!
It looks like a pretty day in Chicago. The Cubbies are beating the Braves. For now. Go, Cubs, Go!

Rain is Heaven
Anyone who knows me well knows how much I love the rain. And low, dark grey clouds. The darker the day, the better.
Today is one such day. It is heavily overcast and raining. I can hear the rain falling on my roof, landing on my balcony and running through my gutters and downspout. How heavenly.
I am sitting here trying to think of things to type... I have ideas for days running through my head when I am away from my computer. I compose draft after draft in my head but when I actually get my laptop on my lap and start to blog, my poor little brain is empty and I can't recall a single thought that I had earlier. It is so stupid and frustrating. Maybe I need to keep a notebook at hand and jot down notes from which I can compose entries.
My cat is full of piss and vinegar, right now. He is pin-balling madly around the house, running from room to room, jumping up in windowsills, looking out for a moment, jumping down and bolting down the hall. Little nut. It's how he gets his exercise. lol
I had a really good day of eating, yesterday. On track and just over 1200 in calories. I am happy with that. Today is also starting well. :)
I think that weight is coming off. My body feels smaller. It is beginning to have that "loose squishy smaller" feel that it gets when weight is coming off. I am feeling more energy and getting around is getting a little easier, too. All good things, methinks. :D
Cat doesn't like salsa. He he. I had a boiled egg, boiled egg white and some salsa and a toasted 130 calorie bagel for brekkie and my plate is sitting here on my little table beside me. (Yes, I am being lazy and haven't put my plate in the kitchen yet. Shocking, but true. lol) Marley jumped up next to me and bobbed his little beak over my plate and tasted the salsa. I think he has decided that taste was all he wanted. I do admire him for being adventurous enough to try it. lol
Husband is eating salad and sharing it with the dog. Have I ever mentioned that my dog likes veggies? She adores lettuce and salad, begs for asparagus stems and broccoli and cauliflower, noms bell peppers and will knock you down to get to watermelon and cantaloupe. Yes, my dog is a weirdo.
Spring training has begun. Wonder how the Cubbies are going to do, this year. they won their first couple of games, then they played the White Sox the other day and got their asses handed to them. As usual when they play the Sox. Sad. Truly sad. I wonder how long it will be until "Sweet" Lou Piniella is sitting in the dark in the dugout, unshaven and depressed. If any team can do it to him, the Cubbies can. They are just as powerful as the Rays at breaking the spirits of any manager crazy enough to take them on. lol
*sigh* I have to pee.
Too much coffee.
Can one ever get too much coffee?
I don't think so...
