Hey, when opportunity knocks, sometimes you gotta slam the door in its face.

Not a tagline but should be

And parents who let their kids drink soda? That's parental neglect right there. **facepalm**

Urgh.

show up here late:

1) calorie counting. When I had to monitor food intake this summer after diabetes diagnosis, I used fatsecret.com (has an iphone app, maybe android too). Terrible name, but they have a lot of food in the db and it was pretty easy for me to track food intake. I like that I can track carbs and fat, whatever.

2) period: for iphone, I use pinkpad and I love it. It predicts when your next period will be and you can password lock the app. you also can indicate flow and other "symptoms." It can also be used to track fertility and whatever the fuck.

there is a social aspect to that, but I suspect you realize that I have never explored those features.

Yeah, I use Noom for calorie counting because it's very basic and you just have to estimate, but it probably wouldn't do for anything more serious. And I use womanlog for my period, because it was the least offensively named. I find it very weird to know when my period will be. I mean, I used to keep the data, with a pencil in my Daytimer, but that was years ago, and I never did anything with it, like draw conclusions.

I'm reminded of the Daria ep where she babysits the kids who aren't allowed to have sugar. "HITLER ate chocolate!"

Womanlog is a fantastic name.

I love that bit.

Tricia: Sugar is bad.
Tad: Sugar rots your teeth.
Tricia: Sugar makes you hyper.
Tad: Hitler ate sugar.

Yearly review, yay. I'm not pushing myself enough. I should be achieving more. What the hell is wrong with being steady and reliable and doing a good job day to day? Why do I have to keep pushing for more and more? I don't want to be promoted, I'm happy being the grizzled sergeant who knows what's where.

Connie, why do you hate [corporate] America?

So Hec, how exactly does one go about vanquishing langours and depressions? 'Cause I could use some of that.

The number one cure is to come visit me in San Francisco. Then there would be drinking and eating and gallivanting and the exciting game of Spoiling Brenda Rotten.

I use pinkpad

I may need to start using one of these so I don't get surprised like I did today. Grrrr.

Good karate workout today. Ended with 100 front punches and my shoulder held up fine (knock wood that nothing changes).
