Ground chia seeds mixed with water are often used as an egg replacer in vegan baked goods, because it becomes a gel acts as a binder the way eggs do. So maybe it becomes a gel in your tummy and that's why it's filling.

This makes total sense to me.

Thanks so much for saying that. Now I know I wasn't imagining it.

I am no good at things like juice fasts. They make me dizzy and headachy.

Out of sheer funk, I ended up with muscle spasms last night and I feel like I did a hundred situps and then was hit by a truck.

My trivia team did do the best we've ever done in a tournament today, so that's something.

You go, Nora. I was hoping for loving today, but nope. I didn't really try, though.

At corner bar. Neighbor friend is buying me beers and giving me smokes. Love my landlady. Hmm, I drink much more, I may try a booty text.

Same here.

meara, jeepers, how ungrateful. I hope your friend proves to be a lot of fun on your vacation anyway! I'm still gnashing my teeth that I can't go.

Randomly, good GRIEF, gluten-free stuff is expensive. But now I have the ingredients to make GF popovers.

I would like this migraine to either go away, or actually happen for real, instead of this hazy halfway state. I feel like I *should* be doing things, but I'm not quite well enough.

Me too on no juice fasting. Need protein.

Swing and a miss on the booty text. Boo hiss.

Booooo for no booty. Glad you're having a fun night with J though. Man, now I wanna come hang out with y'all. Tell her I say HI!!

omg, I was so booty-ready that yesterday I was drooling over a bartender shaking a cocktail. Like, it was INTENSE.

Between being sick, having anti-b related stomach issues and yeast infections, having a houseguest, and being apart for 5 days... damn.

I did some tempting though. I think it'll pay off soonish. Hope so. Been too few and far between lately.

J says HI!!

HG scuttlebutt - not based at Village this year, can't afford what M is asking. Don't have a base yet. Meep.

Me too, but maybe it'd be different if I was fasting for myself instead of fasting for a medical procedure.

Ugh, I figured something like that would happen with HG this year, given how fraught it was last year. He has SO MANY requests for space that time of year. I dunno though, I worked hard to stay out of it all.
