Ah, how times change...
This is from around this time of year, 2005:
Recent forays into thefacebook.com which involved a high school search has made me feel old. I found 2 people from the class of 1995, just me from 1997, and the next class to have people there are from 2000, which is my younger sister's class. The site is overrun with enthusiastic '04 kids who are in the middle of their freshman year.
Was it originally called The Facebook, or is that just some weird extra "the" in there? It makes me sound like my grandmother, who regularly appended an unnecessary "the" to various words (especially with regard to illness or problems.)
At the beginning of last week I had a 24-hour bug, and apparently despite that sucking it has propelled me into a massive breaking of a weight loss plateau. It's normal to lose a ton of weight when you're sick, but you gain it back. I really haven't gained it back, and have lost more, and I think that's because I feel like I have a head start on something and don't want to waste it so I have been very good about diet and exercise since then (better than usual, which is already pretty fantastic.) I hope it keeps up. It may also be that my body was clinging to the weight I was before, and now it knows I won't be dead if I lose more weight so it gave my metabolism the go-ahead to burn stuff up. (That's some real science right there.)
