I figured it was pretty harmless to throw a teaspoon or two in a glass of water 2-3 times a day, and it would make sure I drink more water.
As an appetite suppressant, I'm not lining up to give it supporting testimony, although that seemed to me to have the best science behind it with the pectin.
I'll try it for a month or so and see if I think it's doing anything. We'll see.

Got a haircut. Funny how 40 years ago it had to cover your ears and we wouldn't dream of getting it cut short for fear of being called an old man. Now I couldn't grow it long if I wanted to but the closer I have it cut (#1/2 and #1 clipper) the younger people say I look.
Getting a haircut Saturday... can't wait.

Got a bikini wax last week. All of last week, took a while for that first one.
It is raining, AGAIN
Not sure it has ever stopped raining.

Animals are gathering by twos...
Can't sleep in a thunderstorm, as the thunder rolls in the valley here. 3 hours sleep ought to be ok.
I actually sleep great in thunderstorms. Loud thunder may rouse me but I find it comforting, go right back to sleep. No idea why.
I'm in a valley, between the "mountains." I never knew what was meant by "the thunder rolls" til I moved here. It's just too freaking loud for me to sleep through. Of course, I can't sleep if the cat walks in, or an icemaker turns on (and we don't have a fan going to block the noise), etc. Just a weird guy for sleeping.
Ditto! Love sleep'n during stormy weather.Quote:

What are yours?
Sadly, it's becoming a lost art. You can generally find an example of what you need on the internet, and hit copy and paste quickly enough. And I can't remember the darn shortcuts off the top of my head, although I do a fair job with alt-11 and alt-21, which I use fairly often.
^You're speaking a foreign language to me, D. I don't use Alt shortcuts and don't know what they are. I don't use the Function buttons, either.
Back in the old days of WordPerfect for DOS I was a wiz at all those ctrl/alt/F4/whatever shortcuts, but since Windows 95 I've lost all that.
I am utterly AMAZED That you know alt-codes. I mostly use the four digit ones for accent marks é (0233), ñ (0241, because it annoys me when the tilde is left off of words like jalapeño), ê (0234, because it is in my girl's legal name).Quote:

BEvans, try Alt-0167 and Alt-0182. You'll be glad you did, probably especially the first one.
Pedro, I don't "remember" all of those. In fact, I looked, and I butchered a couple above. I printed out a bunch I keep next to me just to make it easy, and I don't use them quite often enough to remember all of them. I need to laminate it and keep it handier than the piece of paper I lose.
I just love the way that ½ looks instead of 1/2. I use § very frequently in my writings. 212° looks so much better than 212 degrees. Just several like that as well. And so on, and so forth.
Pedro, it irritates me to see the tilde left off, too, although I am guilty of the practice on occasion when I'm in a hurry. It will make my "cut" of commonly used alt-codes.
Looks like its going to be a snowy week, i hate snow.
Football season is almost over; Kentucky basketball looking fragile. Time to start looking for my derby horse.
Darrell just PM'd me and told me I won....no need to congratulate me.
Nothing to see here, move along...

Recount!
Left this morning with a jacket on and the heater on, and now a simple dress shirt has me burning up. Hate weather like this.
Doesn't matter, I won.

KY gear and khakis or jeans, yeah that sounds about right.
Now, for the office I have an assortment of Blue, if not UK dress shirts and the various matching trousers; you have to represent...
I had dinner Sunday night with one of the girls currently on The Bachelor.
Well, if "having dinner with" means being in the same restaurant while my daughter took a couple of stealth photos of her and her date, also on the show.
By your standard I used to make love with Farrah Fawcett thanks to that poster of hers in the 70s.....
Sounds about right.Quote:

OK, I'm going to say it: Bryan Adams gets a bad rap. His songs won't start a cultural revolution, but he didn't suck. The shuffle on my iPhone just brought up "It's Only Love," his duet with Tina Turner, and it's good. (Just about anything with Tina Turner's good, but still....)
Fixed itQuote:

Google search home page. Loads in a blink then I go to a bookmarked page from there. I may want to come here first, go to the weather or go to a news page. All right there with a click or two
That and the Firefox homepage.Quote:
