So I haven't posted here in a while - partly because I didn't really have much to say, but also because a lot of the time I used to have for that kind of thing got diverted both to trying to keep up with the increasing number of social media outlets, and also to reading a bit more than I had been (although still nowhere near what I used to).

Isn't losing a few pounds the best! Glad to hear you are finding ways to eat healthy. That CSA sounds AWESOME!

I totally relate to you on the FB issues. The SNR there is way too low, and i also just check it now and again. There's no such things as "keeping up with it" -- it'd be close to a full-time job -- so i just log in when i can, sort chrono, and read what i can. I hang on the hope that if i do that pseudo-randomly i'll get a fair sampling of all my friends' posts in the long term. *shrug*

Thanks for the update. Glad you're well!
