    I hate my job at the moment, but I'm in a training period that should lead to a more fulfilling job in about a year and a half. Hopefully I can move to the other coast then, somewhere with lots of...

    How do you nocturnists cope?

    I'm pretty sure I'm a nocturnist. I feel most alert from 10pm to 3am or so and am at my worst around 7am when I have to show up for work. I can get into bed earlier but I won't fall asleep. I've...

    Do you take weeks off from the running? I think just taking a week off from cardio will do you a lot of good. Considering how you are feeling I would even take 2 weeks off. You won't lose fitness...

    Diet soda

    I rationalize it's not that bad for me. There's no sugar or calories, and I've grown to like the taste of the aspartame/acesulfame potassium combo as much as real sugar. As far as I can tell...

    Not a bad idea.

    I made this twice the last week. I could eat it everyday and never get sick of it:

    6 eggs
    1lb potatoes
    1lb bacon
    1 cup chopped spinach
    1 chopped onion
    1 chopped garlic...

    Oranges, cabbage, and carrots... Yuck. That is the worst combo of plants I can imagine.

    I like veggies for adding crunchy texture to other foods — it's hard to get that crunchiness after cutting...

    That stinks because I like them raw for the texture. I guess I'm going to have to do an N=1 because I just bought a 5lb bag of onions and I have to eat them before they go bad (~1 month?).

    Do onions really make you smell bad?

    Can you eat a medium sized onion a day without smelling bad? Does the type of onion matter? I love raw onions on top of steak — they're so frigging good.

    Suggest a movie to watch this weekend

    Of the last 20 or so movies I've watched, I only liked Cloud Atlas and Amour. Maybe it's just a bad spell but I feel like I've seen all the good movies that exist.

    These are the other movies I...

    Sorta random question

    Where can I buy dress shirts that fit me (14.5 neck, 40 chest, 29 waist)? I've looked in almost every store and am kind of frustrated. "Slim fit" or "athletic fit" shirts are usually something like...
