Blurb.  
Here's the downside of heating gas prices this year. On the plus side, however...

Actual interesting stuff later.

LATER:
So. As I was saying.

The other day I got extremely teed off at the weirdest thing... I'm just suddenly very annoyed at the fact that

every five hours we have to eat
every twelve hours we have to sleep
every few hours we have to shit
or else we die.

No wonder Q got so pissy about being human. We're such (physically) fragile creatures, so wholly dependant on routine that any lasting deviation ends in death and incontinence. It just strikes me as horribly unproductive. I suppose that's partially a reaction to just how unproductive our set-aside Fall Break Cleaning time was. When so much of the day is cut out because you sleep until one, try to wake up for an hour, and then clean until nine, when it inevitably stops due people coming over...who (though I love you guys) no matter how you help clean, it's distracting, it slows us down.

But seriously. Us humans. We're so high-maintainance.

Went to the Comic and Horror convention in Nashville yesterday. Spent mucho el bucko on TPBs and books but that's cool. Brought home a lot, especially some really nice-looking Kabuki issues for 50 CENTS @,@!! AND A SIGNED DAVID MACK comic! I heart DM.

And Boba Fett. Okay, here's my total geekness, but the 501st (Stormtrooper) squadron was there, and I am so tempted to join if they'll let me dress up like Boba. @_@ Okay okay.

Um, lack of things to talk about. The end.

Eat Well, Be Well:
The WELL diet serves up weight loss with a side of blood pressure control. Researchers who designed a diet high in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy -- the WELL diet -- discovered that people who followed the eating plan for 12 weeks experienced better blood pressure improvements compared to people who followed a low-fat diet. The WELL diet's secret to success: foods high in blood pressure-friendly nutrients.

RealAge Benefit: Keeping your blood pressure at 115/76 mm Hg can make your RealAge as much as 12 years younger.

This just in: if you eat a lot of vegetables and fruits and maintain a low-fat diet, it's called eating right, and you'll probably not stay or get fat.


Wow, did that just sound really bitchy? I'm sorry. =(
I actually didn't click the "well diet" link, I just decided to mini-rant instead.

Also, I'm still awake. Why?

I miss Kentucky.
I will never come over to help you clean when you're in cleaning mood. I know how it is. Hee!

~laugh~ It's cool. I've been thinking about that whole eating thing.

The thing I don't like about the word diet is that in today's society, it implies a temporary thing...when a diet is actually a habit of eating. Fruits + veggies + low-fat should definately be a HABIT of eating, not just a temporary thing...because you'll just get temporarily healthy.

I haven't clicked the link either, really. I left it so I could read it later.

Kentucky misses you.
And thanks ^_^

(...there was something I was going to type but I forgot it, which means it must have been pretty cool.)
