I wonder if it's more frustrating to be an end-user dealing with IT people or an IT person dealing with inept IT people? If these people would just train me, I could do their jobs faster and more efficiently.

My problem is that I want to do everything.

My GOTD:

Myself. I'm an idiot for asking for health advice on facebook. I asked if anyone thought it was possible to lose 12 pounds by the first week of june and this overweight girl comes right back with "uhhh yes I lost 10 pounds in 8 days" Look, i get that you're proud of yourself, and you should be, and its really my fault for bringing it up, but damn girl you're still pissing me off. I am not as overweight as you. It is literally impossible for me to lose 10 pounds in 8 days. I have been trying to lose the last twenty pounds for YEARS. Your comment is irrelevant, boastful, moot, and rage inducing in a person that hasn't had sugar for a week. Step away from your keyboard before i hurt you.

My MIL & SIL's doctor has recommended that they try Paleo for their many, many ills...

...and I can see the trainwreck now.

...and I have loaned them three good books "Wheat Belly", "Practical Paleo" cookbook, and "Well-fed"... which I'm sure will gather dust...

Have you tried cutting out nightshades? Tomato, potato, peppers, eggplant and tobacco.

Almond milk that just will not mix into my cup of tea!!!!!!
It just seperates and looks really weird, and unappetizing.

I do eat potatoes. And I know I should not. I am working on getting rid of them again and back to sweet potatoes.

A friend has just bought me an ice block! They gave it to me with a big genuine smile, and I just had to accept it. Right now it's in the freezer, and I don't know what to do. I feel no urge to eat it at all, but I don't know what to tell them. They'll be offended, but...

[Gladmorning]

If it's a real friend, Traveller, they'll understand. If not, screw em'

My GOTD is this DAMN cold ass weather. I'm OVER it already.

I have another gripe.

I have lost 25lbs in the last 7 weeks. But I haven't gone down any clothing sizes. WHAT. I have no clue. Last time I weighed this # I was a smaller pants size. Stupid body being all weird. How do you take off 25 lbs and not go down a pants size? I mean, my pants are looser... yeah... but still. Annoyed.
