Thanks! We had a great time. Oh, the things we did today. Among other things we almost got mr soon-to-be-married to audition for our equivalent of American Idol
![]() And in the evening, I went out with some other friends to see G.B. Shaw's Pygmalion in the theatre. Busy day today ![]()

I had a party for the same reason last night. It wasn't as fun as 5 of us had wanted it to be, but we had a good time anyway
![]() Incredible how one persons group of friends can have such totally opposite people in it.

Funny how we're complex and multi-faceted creatures that way.

Then, after having been off soda for more than a year, I decided to drink the tiniest bit of Dr. Pepper with some pizza and I thought I was having a heart attack! When you're not used to the stuff, caffeine really is a drug. Due to my personal experiences, I feel inclined to share the word of the evils of soda/caffeine, despite the good-tasting.

Woah, slow down a bit! I never said anything about cutting back on caffeine! The soda and sugar, I can be without. But caffeine's my drug of choice
![]() But as you say, fat food + soda (i.e. lots of sugar) is generally a bad idea, I guess especially if one has gall problems.

I don't drink soda or put anything in my tea but I still managed to gain a bunch of weight recently. I suppose that's because I've been a bit under the weather and haven't been exercising. Just a cold, but one that won't go away. I just never got in the habit of putting anything in my tea, though. I like it plain. I drink my coffee black too, but I used to have to put tons of sugar and creamer in it. Now I actually prefer it black.

Had a great Mother's Day dinner the other night with my family, and I got my mom some beautiful yellow roses (her favorite kind) and a card today which she seemed to really appreciate

I managed to survive the dropping (spent Saturday evening from 19h to 3h in the morning walking through a forest) and it was great fun!
I managed to get out of bed on Sunday right in time for a double birthday party and it was great fun! I managed to survive the elections and get the results up in time and it was great fun! We managed a small personal victory which is also great fun! Now, to deal with the rest...

Congratulations Earniel!
![]() ![]() I love my new diet. O_o I didn't think that I would, but I actually really enjoy figuring out what I'm eating. It's not a super exacting thing... it's basically something like, "4 oz of meat = one serving of protein, you eat 2-3 servings of protein a day, one apple is a serving of fruit, you eat 2-3 servings a day, etc." so I'm not counting calories or whatever. But it is fun to figure out stuff like, "okay I'm going to make a salad, if I use this many cups of vegetables, throw in an apple, add some chopped nuts, and grill a chicken breast it will equal x amount of the protein/fruit/vegetable etc." I also love it because I can stuff myself silly on fruits/veggies without giving up the delicious stuff like breakfast cereals ^_^. Plus it gives you one day out of the week when you can eat as much of whatever you want as you want ![]() ![]() The only thing I'm not crazy about is the no cheese rule. >.> I'm bending that one a little... I figure so long as I'm not eating it every day, or even every other day, I should be fine. Other than that I'm sticking strictly to the diet ![]() |

Why, cheese is healthy, innit? Lotsa calcium and stuff and not necessarily that fat.

It's probably one that will not last long, but at this point we take what we can get.

Different diets just aim for different things I guess... But that's why I'm not cutting it out entirely. I honestly don't think it can be that bad for my diet ![]() ![]() Ah, Earniel and I posted at the same time. I had not thought of the cholesterol thing... I'll bet she's right ![]() |

This was very unexpected.
The University of Münster just sent me an email, saying I'm the co-author of an article that has been submitted to some medical journal. Apparently my lab assisting two years ago has now resulted in a manuscript that is up for peer-reviewing and probable publication in a journal on dermatology. I didn't see that coming ![]() Furthermore, I see someone, most likely my supervisor, has totally rewritten my lab report! I thought it was good as it was ![]()

Is it just me or has Cloud gotten golder?
Meanwhile I am still working on trying to decide what I should do about the whole eating thing. And feeling lazy. I couldn't give up cheese but I have cut back significantly in recent months. I used to have cheese on almost everything. But I've been really into beer lately. No more than one or two a day, and only the highest quality that I can afford, but beer is supposed to be extra fattening. Hence the term "beer belly". |

A series of seminars on Dante's Divine Comedy has just started in my area! Looks like it'll be 2-3 cantos per meeting, and two hours discussing them, led by an ancient German professor. Awesome.

Two weeks and four days until I'll officially be "Missus" instead of "Miss".
And finals are over this week, too. Just in time for me to get a pretty good sore throat. Yay!

Is it exciting? I don't think I would be excited; I never start to get really excited about anything 24 hours (or, for REALLY big things, 48 hours) before; marriage might be big enough that it would hit me a week before, but probably not earlier.
Of course, it would probably be terrifying before that. ![]()
