It says something about my posting ethic when I keep having to start off posts by reassuring people that I have not, in fact, died, gone into Witness Protection, or been abducted by aliens from the Planet Zord. x_x ( Read more... )

* I've lost 19 pounds in just over 2 months! Now all my pants are getting ridiculously baggy, especially the non-fitted stuff like my cargos and my jeans - some of them I can take off WITHOUT having to unbutton or unzip them ( Read more... )

Okay, so. I am, in fact, not dead, the recent barrenness of my LJ notwithstanding. I'm just too lazy to write up a whole post. But anyway, here's what's been going on ( Read more... )

It's Monday, it's raining, and it's cold. (What happened to fall? Jeez.)
