bending_sickleWhat? No cries of "puppy!"? (No puppy, though, as Ines still has a non-permanent contract and decided to hold out for a bit.)
Life still the same: work, eat, study, watch DVD, sleep, repeat.
The other thing that's been on repeat is the lovely Mr. Christian Kane singing LA (lyrics here) as Lindsay McDonald on Angel's "Dead End" ep. 2x18.
The reasons being: a) awesome song, b) fantastic singer. Addenum reason: man looks damn fine in that scene.
So if you guys want to listen to the ol' Kane band, I've already done the prelim. YouTube search. I can't listen, 'cause of the whole "office computer sound card's dead" thing.

G and I no longer congratulate people for their weight loss. We do congratulate people for achieving better health and happiness. We will not congratulate you if you lost weight because you want to look like you did in high school, or to fit into smaller clothes. If you wanted to see a lower number on a scale, or if you are ashamed to tell the larger number you do see, or if you want to wear a bathing suit and feel you can’t because you are ashamed. We will not congratulate you if you’ve made your family happier with you, and we will not act like you are worth more, or smarter, or better than before. If you are losing weight so that your boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse/significant other will STILL LOVE YOU, your weight is not your problem. Honey, you need to get help, or get out of that relationship. You deserve to be loved for who you are, 100% and no less.
We WILL congratulate you if you’ve lowered your blood pressure or cholesterol. If you’ve made your life easier by easing back pain or knee or ankle injuries. If you’ve been able to sleep better at night and can breathe easier when climbing stairs or playing with your kids. We will congratulate you if you are healthier, and if you’ve been smart about it. That’s what’s important. Not the scale, not the measuring tape.
In light of that, I totally want this cake. Not to eat, because marzipan is devil's food, but to look at. (Alright, I can eat the elephants, for icing be good.) More cakes.
I mentioned to Kit that I'd seen a page on how to make corsets. This isn't it, but that just proves there's more than one out there. (Also? Kimono!)
ETA: Finishing SKing's Desperation (B-Day present) and have only been distrubed twice. "King of horror" I think not. "King of gore", yes.
