Tofutti cuties should be called corn cuties. They have corn sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup, corn flour, corn sugar, and corn sweetners, many of those ingredients being more prominent than the tofu and soy protein.

Tonight was organic lemonaid, a clif bar, a tofutti cutie, pasta w/ canned sauce, baked ear of corn, a bit of rice with the bragg’s liquid aminos (read: overpriced low salt soy sauce), and a falafel sandwich. I was planning on doing salad too, but my stomach told me enough was enough. Maybe tomorrow evening.

Yay, anti-atkins. =)

I successfully evangelized , my junior prom date, and highlight of this weekend’s high school reunion, into the livejournal fold. Testify! =)

I’m off to Ohio to visit with the family (this is the last planned full family assembly before my dad deploys to Iraq in October), and attend my 10 year high school reunion. Should be an interesting weekend.

If the net access at home blows, see y’all on monday 😉

Sometimes links to the coolest shit.

Like this mailing list banter from the founding fathers.

Mesharr has taken the ferry from Mhaura to Selbina. She and Loren met face to face for the first time ever last night. She also went to San D’oria, and picked up the Mea and Hol telepoint crystals, as well as basic guild memberships in woodworking, smithing, and leatherwork. Not sure if this is actually necessary to advance the relevant skills, but I read somewhere online that it was, so it must be true 😉 She finished her level up to 15 solo, and she was on her way to Bastok, when she ran across a low level Quadav right outside the border to Gustaberg(?). Figuring she could take it easy, I had her start pounding on it. I noticed the goblins that joined in the party just before she killed the quadav, half a second before she was killed herself and leveled back down. So, now she’s awaiting my special attention in Selbina again. Maybe I’ll just have her beeline for Bastok and the final guild memberships before resuming her quest for levels. =)

I’m kinda enjoying it. Largely for the feel of the imaginary environment. CoH seems simpler from an intellectual perspective (no real economy), but it does seem pretty cool from the setting perspective, and the powers are neat too. (Jim showed it to me yesterday, but that’s another story.)

recently posted a two paragraph criticism of current intellectual property law. This is just another poking reminder, because I’ve been meaning to organize my thoughts on the subject ever since posted his entry on the subject, what, a month, two months ago? My shallow insight into the final fantasy xi economy (and it is kinda like a giant microeconomy lab, giving insights on the nature of entrepreneurship in a limited kind of way), added something to the ideas spinning around, so I decided to do more “research” first. =) Heh.

And I owe AlexQ a post on the subject of how our cities could be better designed. Plus minutes for the technical advisory panel meeting and a rough draft of a paper on a subject that I haven’t researched terribly well for that conference that we’ll be setting up in late october. Oy.

So remind me, people. Let me know that you care. =)

Saw an optometrist for the first time in 2.5 years. My eyes have gotten a tiny bit worse. But I have contacts, and the pupils that ate new york. Tomorrow, I will only have the contacts.
