Holidays, Communities, and Random Tasty Bits

[fredericks]

Worked today, and was delightfully surprised that things were relatively quiet. The weather cooperated and the patients were, for the most part, friendly. Two more days out in the field to go and then three days until VACATION. Cannot wait.

I keep forgetting today is Friday, as it's considered part of my weekend shift.

TV programming sucks on holidays and Saturdays.

I finally updated the health/weight comm I'd been toying with making. Please join and start discussing things with me!: weight_matters. It is a work in progress, so if you have any suggestions lay 'em on me.

Tasty chips FTW: Food Should Taste Good's Jalapeno Chips. HOMG, give me a dinner with one of Trader Joe's Bean and Rice Burritos, some guac., mango salsa, and a serving of jalapeno chips? Lovely healthy heaven.

I'm going to have to look into workout classes in the city after work. One of my mini-goals is to incorporate more weight training into my cardio-heavy workouts, and I'm never able to attend the step classes at my current gym. If anyone has had any experience with Crunch's classes and wants to give me feedback please feel free.

The idea of Transformer fic makes me giggle. That there's explicit Transformer fic (thank you, Small Fandom Month at Crack Van)? I laugh, I cry, I am bemused, bewildered, and other wonderful "b" words by fandom. Ah, fandom! Heh.

So, in conclusion: weight_matters. Tell your LJ friends. :)

eta - Thanks to nelliewu for the LJ Snowflake (aww! my first virtual gift!) and army_kitten for the wonderful 2010 postcard that, appropriately enough, got on the first day of the New Year (so much awesome! *grin*)

Bwah! Fandom_Wank is another winner. I used to spend a good amount of procrastination time at that site. And there are three major kinds of Transformer fic? I just...I think about Transformers and then I think about Jiffy Lube and, yeah. Not so much.

I swear, when I think about how I got involved in fandom in the first place. I remember hearing about fanfic and saying to myself "oh, that's just *silly*, what's wrong with those people." Six months later? I'm engrossed in a show to an unhealthy degree and trolling bulletin boards. Six months after that? I'm reading fanfic. Six months after that? I'm reccing fanfic and looking for companions. And it's always "man, that's silly" leading to "that's awesome! lol smiley face!" I know I'll probably be all up on Transformers fic in a couple of years. Because the benevolent entity overseeing all has a *great* sense of cosmic karma humor.

Would you believe I haven't seen Holmes yet? Stupid work schedule. I'm glad you liked it. Now I want to see it even more. *grin*
