cat slave diary

I have had a bit of a fiddle with the stylesheets, not very auccessfully though. Be buggered if I can work out how to get rid of those dark grey borders. Does anyone have some css mastery?

I have put a field in to record our starting weights and the current weights, if we all have an oline confessional I can fill them in….

Inger start: 86.4
Inger now: 84.6

(yay)

I have been feeling a bit off the wagon, haven’t actually done anything *bad* but haven’t been exercising. Will have to take you up on your offer of helping with the gardening Andrew….

Well, I went to the Werribee meeting tonight and it’s full of hotties. Seriously. Scrubber count: 0.

The leader was nice lady who reminded me of a woman I worked with in Westpac called Wendy. It’s in a nice newly re-painted room hanging off a community center.

Guess what? The free join thingy is on again. We missed by like three weeks. I have a free joining voucher if anyone has any friends who can use it. I also have a “get out of weighing” card. Just the one. The idea is that for a limited number of times a year if you’ve been bad. The idea is that you face the music anyway, but it gives you relief if you have been bad and it doesn’t go on your record.

Downside of this meeting location: it’s in Werribee, and it’s even further away from Melbourne than any meeting I’ve done in Victoria so far.

So news: I’ve put on 0.1 kg. I weighed with change and everything, so it could be that this is actually a zero loss, but it’s still not a loss, so I’m bad. Need to work less hours, and eat less crap, and get out in the garden.

Monica needs to lose 10 kg, by the way. I need to lose another 57.

See you all Monday.

Does a jug of rum and coke over dinner, consumed all by myself constutute good behaviour??? It was during last weekend in our annual sail / booze fest (which would normally allow me to be excused from such behaviour)…

We cooked up the nachos in Week 2’s book. Be careful, very careful. We decided to use CCs instead of tortilla shells, figured it would save time, etc. Tortilla shells: 2points for the serve size. CCs: 5 points. Ouch. I ended up +3 yesterday

http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.htm contains a range of BMI like calculators. The amazing thing is that the WW prediction for my weight range as a bloke is pretty much in line with what this calculator produces

too many ‘naked tasmanians’ means I will probably join you in the ‘increasing girth’ booth…. damn that vanilla vodka

Been a horror week of not being good. Say hello to more weight this Monday. Need to concentrate.

There’s a couple of roundabouts near where I live. Nearly every week one of the <<< signs on one of the roundabouts is cleaned up and a new set of fresh tyre marks lead off into the dust. VicRoads dutifully comes back and either bashes it back up with a sledgehammer or puts in a new one. The current one going towards my place is nearly holding a record of three weeks without being flattened. The little one in the middle of the roundabout going the other way has been flattened for the second time this week.

However, I was driving to work this morning and saw a new victim - The Really Crap Drivers of the West(tm) have really excelled themselves. One of them took out a very tall light pole. Sheared it completely off at the base and buggered both large lights at the top of the pole, with one of them completely separate. That must have hurt.

I wonder why this particular roundabout is the cause of so many accidents with the scenery.

• 2 slices vegemite toast (3 points)
• katsudon (if beef teriyaki on rice is 7.5 points, then this is less as it doesn’t have a sweet sauce, but let’s call it 7.5 points for safety)
• 2 small grilled lamb fillets (about 100 gm all up) + greek salad (7 points)
• 1/2 a waffle with about 3 sliced strawberries in syrup (2.5+1.5 = 4 points)
• beer (2 points)

Total: 25.5 points. And a lovely day of food it was too.

Absolutely no exercise.

Meebles ate cooked chicken bones, including ribs and a small femur. I wasn’t game to stick my fingers down his throat - I’d have bloodied stumps if I did.

Hopefully, he’ll pass them in the next day or so. I wonder if cats eyes water?
