I’ve worked the ediets thing before, and the South Beach thing worked - until I snapped and tried to eat Crash’s head - and have puttered around with various diet groups before. I never really got serious about it, though, and to be honest I’ve wondered if the pressure of others paying attention to what I’m trying to change didn’t contribute to my rebellion/failure.
That said, caloriecount.about.com is very similar to ediets, is free, has a cell phone component, and seems to be pretty cool so far. For those interested.

You know, it takes the average novelist about a year to turn out a genre novel. It takes me 4-6 hours to read it.
That makes me sad, somehow.

Magic Strikes, the third book in Ilona Andrews’ Kate Daniels series, drops tdoay. I am currently having Crash stalk the UPS guy for me. I can’t actually read it until my homework for the week is complete, but I can at least cradle it to me like a tiny paperback wubby. I will pat it and pet it and tell it sweet nothings so that it waits until Friday afternoon for me.

Someone I don’t know just called my cell phone to ask me to buy him a hamburger. Hmm. Maybe I will.

Gatchaman has it all over Battle of the Planets for straight watchability.
If you wanna giggle at the Random Robot and Robo-Scrappy, then you gotta have Battle of the Planets.

I dislike Jane Austen. Yeah, yeah, female author when it was frowned upon, the power of making people chat about emotions, blah blah whatever. It’s boring.
So this news, covered by the New York Times, of all places, made my day. Full text below the cut.

Every so often, in my dreams, I go traveling.
Last night my husband and I were on our way to the East. But we didn’t take a plane. Oh, no, not in dreamtime. We swam.
