Oct. 27th, 2003 02:23 pm1) I'm stuck in Rewriting Hell. You know, where you need badly to move forward on something but instead you keep rewriting the same damn three sentences over and over again because you blank on what comes next? That's where I am. Pity me.
2) I am creating a new weight loss plan for myself, dubbed the "get off your ass and cook soup" diet. See, I lost a few pounds during my recent illness (NASTY stomach bug, the kind where you take a pot into the bathroom with you in case you end up with two needs at the same time). My recovery period was primarily soup as food, so I'm taking that into the winter months. I'm actually making my own stock for the first time right now. We'll see how it turns out, but it smells damn good. I figured if I make healthy soups and have them for one meal a day, paired with other sensible foods for the rest of the time, it will be a good source of nutrition and might help me keep from gaining all the weight I usually gain over winter.
3) I figured out what I want. In this specific instance, I want to not be an adult anymore for a while. I want to be distracted and play games I'm good at (instead of playing games other people are good at just to have something to play together all the time). Therefore, I have rented a game for the X-Box that only I will play (Syberia... it's frickin' cool, btw) and played it for the first time last night. It was lovely. :) Stress relief in one nice little package. Ah. I may be purchasing it at a later time.
