-Did you know that if you pretend that you don't know something that a stupid person does know, it makes them really REALLY happy to tell you all about it? "Really? Iced Tea has caffeine? I had no idea!"
-I am so tired, I'm almost falling asleep at my desk. I can't believe missing sleep from Monday Night Football would still affect me on Wednesday. I even went to bed on time last night.
-My "friends"* involved me in a weight loss challenge. (Based on points for different things, not total weight loss - though weight loss factors in heavily.) I seem to be in the thick of the running (or at least not left in the dust) and I'm floored. FLOORED. Due to time constraints, I get next to no points for exercise. I'm just religious about journaling and drinking water. Which feels like I'm basically doing nothing. And yet, to date I've lost 6 lbs.
-Trust me, you're glad this is the first you've heard of the weight loss challenge. The first week of competition I was filled with great vitriol for the challenge organizer regarding how she was responsible for my lack of sustenance, and how I was obviously going to starve to death in addition to having to pee every 10 seconds until blissful death took me away.
-Internet drama is exponentially better than soap operas, but still doesn't approach the level of genius that is Gossip Girl.
-I heart Dooce.
-I had an outpouring of hatred for Biggest Loser last night, though ultimately I still enjoy the show. These people are losing 28lbs in two weeks. I call bullshit. The boy tried to pacify me with the fact that those people have a lot (LOT) more fat to lose than I do, but diet irrationality knows no bounds. I only know that it's been a bitch to lose 6 lbs, and I'm super jealous.
-Salmon is diet superfood.
-According to my BMI, I am no longer obese.** Now I'm just overweight. I still haven't changed the first two numbers on my weight, though, so I'm not sure how I feel about that formality change. Check back with me next week.
-Since I do not have one, I totally want to get on zlionfan's Wii and have it tell me how awesome I am for losing weight.
-That last bullet point just cracked me up.
*In quotes because obviously no "real" friend would deprive me of eating. ahem. They forced me. Bound and gagged me. I am an innocent (and hungry) bystander in this insanity.
**According to my BMI, people. I never believed that. I happen to think I just have heavy bones.

OMG!!!! 6 Llb....that is amazing.
I wish I was depriving myself from food, but alas I am not. Perhaps that is why someone other than me is going to win.
I often wish I had weight loss like the people on TBL...but I do not have six hours a day to devote to exercise. If only I didn't have to work!
Six pounds is great. It is not always fun, but the challenge is a good idea.
spelling.
I believe we all know it is impossible for someone other than your parents to force you to do anything you don't want to do. Literally. I don't believe we could do it.
That is awesome. I've probably gained 6 lbs between yesterday and today! I love salmon too but it's so expensive!
J. is one one of those weight loss teams at work, only I don't think they go by individual weight loss, they do a "team" thing. But, I guess if they win in December they get $100 a piece. Plus, he has lost 20 lbs. which is great for him but not great for me!
