This just in from Business Week, thanks to politicalwire.

I disagree that Bush is more intelligent than he seems, given the fact that he's never run a successful business in his life and is surrounded by rich friends who bail him out. He's stunningly mediocre, learning disability or not.

Diet update

Okay, I've now lost a total of 18 lbs and 3% body fat on this diet.

How marvelous. I've put in a moderate workout this week...less jogging and a little more on weights four times so far. This weekend I'll make time for some upper arms and situps.

Tomorrow: Krazy Off the Wagon Dayz! At least one meal, anyway, where I shall consume items that would make the South Beach founder blanche. Well, maybe not, but they are the "avoid these foods" category. Though I might have a whole wheat bun on that hamburger. But I see a milkshake and french fries in my future. Maybe some onion rings. And then I'll go back to veggies and lean stuff for a while, until my next planned "feasting".

Garden Graphics

I really enjoyed meeting the landscape designer. She showed me her portfolio, she was impressed with a list of my desires. I guess no one has given her a list of things one likes and doesn't like.

I'm going to go ahead and select her to do my design. I'm not much for shopping around, for shopping around does indeed take time. It will be $1200 for her to design my yard. But I feel it's worth it. She's going to have every detail on a two page plan for me. I need that. I don't care about names of plants, but I like showing her what I like and she can pick 'em for me.

We'll start in June.

Say, anyone have a copy of "You Suck" by the Yeastie Girls?

I hate finding out about mistakes I have made. Due to a mishap from my "free Napster" days, I downloaded a song that was attributed to Wierd Al. It was by Tom Green. I despair over this knowledge of being mistaken. Christ. The next thing you'll tell me is that Santa Claus doesn't exist.

...

Aw, damn.

Snippet of conversation:
Me: Owning a house is pure money, man. The amount you save due to interest expense is phenomenal.
Him: I could film pornos there, too!
Me: In that case, you would be making money hand over fist...ings.

*rimshot* Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all week.

I went to Peet's today and acquired some loose leaf teas:

• Assam Golden Tip


• Earl Gray with Lavendar

I always knew Earl was gay.

Aww geez, my humor has tanked.

I also found egg cups at Cost Plus! Now I can have soft boiled eggs with the eggie-weggies propped up!

Yes, I'm also easier to entertain then a bunch of war-weary soldiers on weekend leave.
