Good Lord, what a con. It was great seeing all of you there. Definitely gotta expand that friends list, now.
I'm beat. Honest-to-Jesus con report later, but for now, here's me brutally molesting Caveman Robot. I own this guy a drawing, big time...
Brain Farts: July 2004 Archives
I've been watching what I eat more carefully for the past couple of months. I'm not a food-group-demonizing diet Nazi just yet, but I figure choking down less garbage could only work in my favor in the long run.
Part of figuring out what's worth eating is looking up the nutritional info for crap online. A lot of restaurants (but not enough) keep pretty detailed calorie counts on their corporate websites. It's gotten to the point that I don't trust the ones that don't... Not that the high-volume chow outfits describing the naked horror of their menus in lurid, heart-stopping detail makes things any better for 'em. There are places I just don't go anymore.
Case in point: Click the Trixie.
Long ago, every once in a blue moon, I'd give in and walk the four steps to the Starbucks next door for a Caramel Frappuccino. Not anymore.
This link is practically atrocity tourism. It's always worth posting because of the shock and misery it seems to inpsire.
I'm sure nobody ordering their daily Strawberries & Creme thingamajig from Starbucks thinks of it as health food, but they probably don't think that they're sipping on a Big Mac, either.
Look up your favorite! Ride that wave of mild, nauseous terror! Never touch a caramel brownie again!
-- I will play the Star Wars Galaxies trial I just downloaded for exactly an hour, and then I will get back to work.
-- Fanfic is giving me nips, but he doesn't actually hate me. My hands just smell like food. Always.
-- I am not worried about Comic Con in the slightest.
-- I will play the Star Wars Galaxies trial I just downloaded until noon, and then I will get back to work.
-- I will answer the phone the next time it rings.
-- These peanut noodles couldn't possibly be more than 400 calories.
-- I will play the Star Wars Galaxies trial I just downloaded until three, and then I will get back to work.
