Sort of content-free: Reframing

This is gonna be long, and it's probably gonna be dumb. I'm cutting it to spare you both. I'm writing it down, though, because it's sort of a Hey Wow moment for me. (It might be a Well Duh moment for you. In fact, I expect it. Feel free to pass by.)

As it turns out, my household has been talking about trying to eat better. Our hedging justification for this has been something along the lines of "No, we're not interested in dieting to lose weight or look good, or pander to the beauty-industrial complex, but wouldn't it be nice to be a little thinner? I mean, that would make it easier to fit better into the elevators at DragonCon, right? Just a little thinner. Then we wouldn't be so miserably hot in the summer, right?". And so on.

This is, of course, lame.( Read more... )

EDIT: And, gamera_spinning reminds me that it is Lent, which means that suddenly, everybody has fish on the menu. I love fish, and consequently, I love Lent. (I fail at Catholicism.)

Tarot Playlist Part Two: Cups

OK, I'm not known for finishing what I start, but I try to get at least halfway through before becoming distracted with something else shiny.

There are actually a couple of songs on this part of the list that I don't care for. See if you can spot them: the rule is, "I am sick of the Eagles." And yet, couldn't come up with anything that captured my sense of it any better. Oh well.
