OR, "stupid life".

I stepped on the scale this morning as a form of punishment, because I woke up feeling like a complete butterball who is due, thanks to the genetic D&D die thrown for me when I was just a mote in my folk's eyes, to be hit with diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, and/or alcohol addiction somewhere down the line. I wanted the number to jump up from the display and mock me. It obliged: I'm at my lowest weight in at least two years. Funny, 'cuz I don't feel like I am. I'm still a bit at a loss.

MP3 Experiment is back!

For those in and around the NYC area, Improv Everywhere's Mp3 Experiment No. 5 is this Saturday. I participated last year and had an absolute blast, but will be away this weekend and won't be able to join in. The link explains everything you need to get in on the action, and also has videos from the previous year's events for the curious. Again, it's great fun and Governor's Island is a lovely place for picnicking out after the event's wrapped.
