This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, that doesn't sound fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

our vending machine has recently been stocked with full size Take five bars,

!!!! Living the dream! (Now I have to go check my newly restocked vending machine...)

I'm guessing I just reached that stage of post pregnancy that I heard about where your hair starts falling out. Fun.

Is that because you got more hair during pregnancy and are just going back to baseline, or did I make that up?

Jesse, I seem to remember that - hair doesn't fall out as much during pregnancy, so when you go back to "normal" fall out, there is some catching up your follicles have to do.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The phone tech guy is here, and he just said "I need to call the manhole guy." That can't be good.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

He I guess your hormones keep your hair from falling out during pregnancy and then when the hormones go away the hair starts coming out all at once instead of the few hairs a day you normal lose. I guess you can lose more than what you would normally lose, but it is suppose to come back eventually.

Aw, man, I want to go check the assortment in our vending machine but without my employee badge I would not be able to get back to my desk. Shoot.

Our wings are not tired.

It really depends what your goals are.

So true. Just last night my vegan friend wouldn't eat the veggie burgers I had in the freezer because the 15th ingredient or something was 'egg white powder', but she happily chowed down the Air Heads candy despite the long list of chemicals and artificial color and crap in the ingredients.

"I need to call the manhole guy."

And I am 12.

I had the same reaction.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Right, so eating to be heathy and eating to lose weight can be at conflict or at least not look in sync. Eating restrictions for ethical/moral objections does not necessarily have anything to do with health. And then there is the whole people are different blah blah blah.

I want to lose weight and be healthier. Eventually that is going to include reducing animal products, but for now I need to maybe just avoid fast food for like more than a week.

In non food related health news I signed up for a yoga class tonight and another one at a different studio tomorrow. I am hoping to start back to 2 days a week and I am trying two studios hoping I like one of them. They are both close to home and on my normal traffic patterns.
