Ali: You count the Cosco snacks as points? Wow, I'm impressed. Didn't your mom ever teach you that food you eat standing up, or if it's free, doesn't have any calories?
So I'm TRYING to work, but I've been also working on a mock newspaper page for a co-worker who's leaving. Every newspaper I've worked at has done these fun pages ... I have two of them that have been done for me and they're hilarious. I was writing a Top 10 list of reasons this reporter is leaving.
I am definitely in a better mood today than I was yesterday, even though I'm really nervous about covering the sniper trial. I've covered stories where there's a lot of media before (but maybe not this many!), so that doesn't bother me, but for some reason this one has me feeling pretty anxious.
I think I've blown my points this week. No, I KNOW I've blown my points this week. I haven't really been keeping track lately, but last night a friend had a dinner party and I ate a whole bunch of crackers and cheese and drank about five glasses of wine. Not good! And at lunch I had a piece (it was small, at least) of going-away cake.
Sigh. I have such a hard time cutting down my food intake!
Well, I better go. Much to do.
