Brandon's last day (& the last of the pix)

[fflo]

Well, the big picnic for our outgoing Exec. Ed. was most decidedly overshadowed for most of us by the departure of our own upsidedownblue. He's home packing now, in this bizarrely hot (after weeks of coolness) last gasp of August, following the little after party at his place.

If you didn't seem 'em yet, ALL the pix from his going-away party can be seen at this photobucket site he uploaded 'em to
(x-posted from his jrnl). And here are the last few I want to put up myself:

Wait a minute...

How comes there's boys kissing and hugging other boys? Just what the heck kinda party's do you have over there?!?

Seriously though, that looked like fun. I'll be having folks over the Saturday after i get back; do try to make yourself availible.

yuk yuk

Yeah, I hope we can hang that day. I'm kinda up in the air that far out right now.

Say, what's this "back on a diet" talk I see over in yer blog? Do I need to round up the troops to talk to you about that four-letter word?

No, you don't. ;-) When I say "diet" I refer to my plan to eat the types of food that will help me feel better and healthier. While I would never tell anyone else what THEY should do, I feel okay pushing myself to do a little better...one bag of potato chips a week instead of 3, more water and less soda, that sort of thing. Beleive me, I don't do self denial well. If I'm sitting around feeling hungry, I make myself something to eat. If I crave ice cream, I go get some.

I am also trying to get my blood pressure down so I can take less medication for it, which will afford me more freedom and less trips to the doctor. While you'll never catch me drinking one of those disgusting slim fast shakes or eating that rank-ass "Weight Loss Center" food; I don't mind telling you that I feel better when I eat less fast food and more veggies, grains and lean meats. Will I still get McDonalds if I crave it? Probably, but once a week instead of 4 times.

I also find that being a pothead, my eating habits can be appallingly unhealthy. And I often skive off excersizing out of pure laziness...which I shouldn't do since I'm less likely to get depressed when I keep with a program.

Anyway...I kinda feel like I need to justify my desire to be healthy to you, when I know that's probably not the case. Just know that I'm wanting to eat better out of love for Wednes, and not hate of fat!

Well, that all sounds pretty good. I guess when I see the word "diet" I don't think of somebody eating better out of love for self. I'm all for that!
