Yay, Sean!
Congrats, Jars!
Good luck and ~ma to Nora and to Barb's DH.
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
So sorry for your loss, Connie.
There's a pizza place about 5 minutes away from my parents that has really good vegan pizza! This is so my new favorite takeout when I'm visiting. My dad and I each got individual pizzas, with similar toppings except for the vegan cheese on mine, and he took a slice of mine by accident and didn't realize until I noticed that my pizza box was missing a slice when he was nearly done eating the slice.

ION. I haz noodle legs. Wet noodles. Yes, I just went to the gym and rode the bike for 30ish minutes. Stupid bike. I program in 30 min. I start pedaling. I look down, and it's counting down from 20 minutes. I figure, eh I'll wait to see how blah I am after 20 before I reprogram. At the end of 20, I say sure, I'll soldier on. Then, I was informed, they close at 7 on the weekends. WTF??? Thankfully I was at about 30 minutes. So? How accurate are those calorie burn calculators on the bikes? I'm guessing they are just estimates, as folks bodies react in different ways. Either way, ~100 calories for ~30 minutes/5 miles of bike riding just doesn't seem fair. That's not even that bowl of ice cream I'm going to eat soon to help cool down.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Not even remotely. Don't worry about calorie burn from any one exercise -- worry about strength and endurance, and the big difference in calories burned will come as your overall metabolism adjusts to a higher activity level when you keep it up over time.

My muscles are sore from chasing around a 1 year old all day who just learned how to climb stairs yesterday. I'm going to consider it a workout. I'm sore, but in a it is completely worth it kind of way.

sj, that sounds like the best kind of sore I can think of.

We helped someone move yesterday . Way too much stuff for 1 person ( no I am serious. about 100 stringed instruments) Sore.
And today a friend came over and took away our green waste. which meant finishing a corner of the garden destruction.
which somehow led to fixing the screen door.
At least there was a burger in there
