It is not a cure-all by any means, but it turns out that having ice cream for dinner actually does do a bit of soothing for a downtrodden heart. Diabetes, schmiabetes, apparently.

Have you tried the Bryers Carb Smart no sugar added ice cream? It's full of fat and bad stuff, but no sugar and it is quite tasty.

Awesome. I totally understand!

Actually I'm thinking after lunch today I might walk up to Daily Grind for gelato. If you're interested. I have probably consumed more ice cream this week than I have in the past six months put together.

Awesome. I'll swing by at maybe...1:30ish? I just have some leftovers for lunch today, won't take long to heat up and eat.

I'm sitting outside, with a fine floppy straw hat, watching vintage race cars trundle and sputter and speed around a lovely pastoral racetrack. Offices and school didn't stand a chance.

Admittedly, I don't think watching cars would be my thing, but it still sounds oodles and oodles better than being in here. I'm having serious gumption deficit disorder.
