Work

I apologize in advance for the impending hand-waving, but…. you know

I’ve been working on two different projects here at work, about 50% of my time on each. There has been a roadblock (out of my control) that was finally lifted today and now I can really rev up the engines. I guess, actually, road block is improper, because I was able to move ahead before, just terribly slowly. And it only took 2.5 months!

and I are currently trying an experiement: We will only eat fast food once a month. Well, not quite: Salads and deli-sandwiches aren’t lumped in there, but that kind of food isn’t really apropos to the experiment anyway. We are really focusing on trying to eliminate the scourge of french fries, burgers, etc from our diet… It’s not so much the fries or the burgers that are the problem, but more of what goes into them at a fast-food restaurant. I am starting to make a consious shift to avoiding High-Fructose Corn Syrup and Trans-Fats, but it’s a pretty monumental challenge. I haven’t really made a determination as to whether or not these two products are actually bad for me, but humans got along without them fine for eons before their invention, so I don’t really see why they should be part of my diet.
