1.\u00a0 I think *crosses fingers and knocks on wood* that I have kicked my plateau.\u00a0 I’ve been between 165-166 for the last few days.\u00a0 I’ll wait for a 164 to really rejoice, but though it’s inching down, down is what counts.\u00a0 Slow and steady win![\"\"](\"http:\/\/storygamer.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/04\/center_strongbad_technology.jpg?w=350&h=226\")
s the race.\u00a0 I guess it’s also worth mentioning that I weighed 165.0 today, which is 100 lbs exactly from my highest weight (or my estimate of my highest weight, because the scale and I were not best buds back then).\u00a0 I have removed a 5’0″ tall woman at an average weight from myself.\u00a0 Have to say it feels pretty awesome.<\/p>\n
2.\u00a0 I’ve been gaming a bit.\u00a0 Besides my non-game gamey fixes like Ikariam<\/a> and Tiny Adventures<\/a>, Zliten and I played around with the Little Big Planet demo, and we’re hooked and can’t wait to actually get it.\u00a0 We also played through the Wii version of Strongbad’s Cool Game For Attractive People<\/a>.\u00a0 Yay adventure games.\u00a0 If you are asking yourself who Strongbad is, go here<\/a> now.\u00a0 Specifically here<\/a> if you don’t want to search the whole site.\u00a0 Do not dilly dally.\u00a0 Use the scroll and the buttons, the buttons, the buttons.<\/p>\n 3.\u00a0 I have been yelping<\/a> more!\u00a0 Yelp is a lovely review site, and quite helpful.\u00a0 Anytime I’m looking for a new restaurant or bar to try – it’s my go to site.\u00a0 If I’m looking for a mechanic, plumber, tailor, etc – I can at least give it a look to see if someone in my area has had a stellar (or poor) review.\u00a0 I’ve forgotten to co 4.\u00a0 We figured out our Halloween costumes!\u00a0 We’re going to be Wraith<\/a> from Stargate Atlantis<\/a> (me a queen<\/a>, Zliten is going to be Todd<\/a>).\u00a0 We’re not going all out and making the costumes ourselves, but trying to get as realistic as we can.\u00a0 The awesome thing that I was able to do was go into a costume store, and purchase a 5.\u00a0 This weekend is the eye of the storm.\u00a0 No plans whatsoever.\u00a0 I can’t go shopping since I haven’t hit 160 (strangely, after I decided this, I started losing again… THERE MAY BE A CONNECTION HERE…), no downtown outings, have plenty of food to stay in, no parties to attend, no plans with the parents, not even dinner plans with anyone.\u00a0 Trying to decide what we want to do.\u00a0 Ice Skating?\u00a0 Movies?\u00a0 Rock Climbing?\u00a0 Being 100% shut ins all weekend?\u00a0 Only time will tell…<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.taverncrawlers.org\/gallery\/albums\/userpics\/normal_IMG_1366.jpg\")
ntribute over the last few months (or more) and I’m trying to review all the places I’ve been lately.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.taverncrawlers.org\/gallery\/albums\/userpics\/normal_IMG_1369.jpg\")
costume off the rack (and a S\/M to boot).\u00a0 I’ve never had both the money and the slim-ness to do that before.\u00a0 Yay!\u00a0 Here is the first go at the makeup – it’s way too green and a little messy, and covering the eyebrows with liquid latex didn’t work so well, but we learned a lot doing it and will do much better next time.\u00a0 And yes, I know, I need to work on my scowl.\u00a0 Zliten does it much better.<\/p>\n
