All quiet on the western front. Our biggest talkers are out, well, at least this morning, so things have been eerily work-environmenty. I'm not used to the calm that the lack of irksome voices brings. This is a good morning for getting shit done, if you don't mind my saying.

Goals for iTC (re: galadarling.com)
'Write- every day. Something non-bloggy, fiction or non-fiction, essay, poem, whatever. Still journal, but make an effort to write, even just a paragraph.
'Be active. Half an hour, every day. Either before or after work. Take the dog for a walk!
'Eat smarter. Don't eat meat, because it will make you feel like crap for several days minimum. (Even your beloved salami.) Go easy on starchy foods, and try to up your intake of fresh veg and proteins! Stop when you're satisfied!
No. Excuses.
Reward!
Hoopnotica fitness hoop+dvd!

Hot diggety dang! Something is not quite right in my intestinal region! That is all anyone will hear on the matter, other than Bryan, who , as my life partner in crime, is my sounding board for all matters not suitable for polite company, etc.

California in for 3rd arid year! We desperately need more rain. :\ Folsom Lake at 25% capacity! Snowpack at 68% normal!
Has it become quite obvious that I'm getting a local news tweet? Yep, I'm following News 10 (Sacramento ABC affiliate), and am being courted by Fox 40! Even though Bryan made his television debut on 40, I'm going to stick with 10.
More local news through the Danno-filter:
-Governor Schwartnjksdfkjne asks state worker unions "Furloughs or pink slips?" Unions leaning towards "Neither!" Certain government employed would kill for an extra 2 days off, even if it meant ~$300 off her monthly take. Cause she hates her job that much.
-Electrical fire at my previous place of work injures one, irritates hundreds of jerk-ass lawyers and commercial real estate agents. Cause presently unknown- rumored a cheesy pita in the toaster oven. One on scene overheard saying, "This is what happens when you close the in-building cafe! I didn't even get to eat the cheesy pita I was heating up from home before we were forced to evacuate."
-Apparent heterosexual(?) sexual assault in Lavender Heights district of Midtown Sacramento. Seems a fag did not keep close enough tabs on his hag. Business owners blame ill-lit alleys. Gays-about-town blame "those straight guys who get paranoid we're hitting on them, and feel the need to take their insecurity out on a lady."
-Fire at the Best Buy where I bought my digital camera wrecked a bunch of stuff. It was a "Best" store waaay back in the day. Yep. Did not read the whole article, thus unclear as to the extent of the damage.
My news items get progressively weaker-sauce! HAR HAR.
