updates, odds, and ends

this is mostly going to be a punch-list format, because eh, got stuff to do!  but:

1) official weigh-in was 261.8lbs this morning, up 0.2lbs from last week.  however,( tmi excuses are tmi )

2) mothers, if you are in an area that's slated to get socked by a massive storm - so massive it covers 1/3 of the country, closes 200-mile stretches of interstate, and *shuts down Chicago* - call your relatives who live far from you and tell them you're all right the next day.  yes, even if it turned out to be almost nothing in your area.  your daughters worry about you, and remember, the news won't cover it if it's not actually *news* - they only cover things like the 700-900 people who got stranded on Chicago's Lake Shore Drive the other night!  (i told my mom she was in trouble for pulling this on me.  really, mom?  really?  you're old enough to know better!)

3) home-owners and home builders, just say no to fuzzy pink bathrooms.  i don't know why this is a recurring evnt, but it didn't work in 1952, 1978, 1995, 2010, and it won't work in the Year of our Evil Overlord Skagway-the-Lover-of-the-Most-Hideous-Colors-EVER 3065, not even if you're touched by the Flying Spaghetti Monster's Most Noodly Appendage.  even C$$u$U is afraid of fuzzy pink bathrooms - and potential home-buyers (ie, me) will most certainly be scared off! 

4) otoh, if you're guilty of #3, i want what you're smoking, because it *must* be some good shit.

( more tmi )

6) my inner child is being a whiney brat, helped along by itchy, burny eyes, fatigue, and a search that keeps getting hung up on certain files.  guh.  i don't wanna finish my paperwork!
