  • New Year’s Resolutions….

    Only two this year:

    1.) Get back on and STAY on Weight Watchers plan (my fall off the wagon in June has resulted in re-gaining 15 of the 40-odd pounds I lost). No real weight goal but simply wanting to get back to where I was and maintain for an entire year, if possible. I’ve already started this one and things are actually working relatively well (for the whole whopping three days I’ve been on it).

    2.) Every week (that’s 52, folks) I want to try one new recipe. I have 21 so far that I will be trying. I am needing another 30 or so, if you have any suggestions, please to send it to me, eh? Yes, I know that I should have 31 but I’m already making one recipe from the crazy awesome crockpot lady website – blackbean salsa chicken. It’s currently bubbling away on my cupboard….Also, keep in mind, I am semi-cooking retarded. I can handle basics but if it’s requiring any of the more esoteric gear of the world or requires talent for example, it’s unlikely to succeed.

    Also, I will be posting, hopefully along with pictures – my endeavors. Because I want to and because it’s kinda neat to see what I (since Joshua will not touch most of this food with a ten foot pole) eat.

  • Dear Xanga – I miss you! I’m afraid I’ve been betraying you and hanging out on FaceBook because so many people from high school and college are there and it’s all shiney and happy and fast paced. I’m sure that this crush I have on FaceBook will eventually fade and I’ll be back here. Especially since I have this lifetime membership that I paid for!! But for now, I’m mostly only reading over here and hanging out over there. Once the holidays are over, I will likely have more time (at least on a relative scale) and will be able to maybe do both!

  • I love xkcd normally.
    But THIS really tickles me…

  • Anybody out there in Xanga-land want a mostly new copy of Twilight?

    I bought it and I’ve pooped out at page 160. The binding isn’t even broken or anything.

    I’ll mail it to the first taker – just send me a PM here on Xanga and we’ll go from there.

    Seriously, I’m not endorsing this novel or anything like it – what a waste of my $7.50….

    *******************

    Twilight has an official new home in Canada! Hopefully it ships quickly and others get more use out of the stupid thing than me.

    Co – if you’re still interested in reading it, I think Kimberly and/or Karen has a copy?
