1. I am still tired but I am eating meat today. I got a doctor's appointment for Monday which I'll go to if I don't feel better.

2. My last menstrual cycle was the worst one in years. I had bad migraines, bad break out and bad mental states FOR WEEKS.

3. I went to lunch with Mike, aka "work crush". Lately I realized two things. One, I give everyone nicknames and never tell people their real name. Two, I am obsessive about people/places/things for a short time. The second one wasn't really a shock but now that I am obsessed with a new ipod, I don't have energy to be obsessive about a boy. (Don't worry, I still think he is cute)

4. Harriet has been very needy since I got back. She wants to sit on me at all times. When I get up to pee she follows me in and lays on my feet then follows me back to where ever I was. She also meows at me a lot. She is super cute.

5. What is up with twitter and why don't I have any followers and stuff? This is really annoying, I just got addicted to it!

6. A friend of mine just got lasik and said it went well. Now I want it again.

7. Should I feel bad because I don't exercise? I mean, I do walk and bike but only when I want to, I don't beat myself up if I don't go to the gym (I don't even have a membership for one).

8. I have a crown on one of my teeth and I am always messing with it. Last night when I was brushing my teeth I realized that my gum all around that crown is DARK. I think I have a bruised gum.

9. Now that civ4 is on the DS I sort of want one of those. Which should I get a DS or an itouch?

?? Wouldn't that make you more tired? I mean... it's more work, right?

One, I give everyone nicknames

WHAT'S MY NICKNAME???

What is up with twitter and why don't I have any followers

Twitter is... a bit too much, in my opinion.

A friend of mine just got lasik and said it went well. Now I want it again.

Come over, I have a cutting laser.

Should I feel bad because I don't exercise?

Do you feel like you're in bad shape? As long as you're HEALTHY, I think that's all that matters. People who exercise out of guilt or to achieve some crazy unattainable ideal that wouldn't be good for them anyway are just crazy and often just end up unhealthy. Maybe they seem healthy for now, but when it catches up with them they've pretty much destroyed their own body.

Which should I get a DS or an itouch?

Eh, not like they take up much room, get both. And a nano.

Yeah but I haven't in a long time and I realized I am not getting iron/protein from other sources. Meat is a quick way to solve that.

WHAT'S MY NICKNAME???

Ian (HA HA HA)

Do you feel like you're in bad shape?

Not really. I mean, I am not in great run a marathon shape but I don't feel like it is impossible for me to do that either. I can do everything I want. I just don't get this need to be constantly down on yourself for being "bad" about skipping the gym. It is also the whole eating thing too. If you want the cookie, eat it, if you think it is bad, don't eat it.

Eh, not like they take up much room, get both. And a nano.

I don't think you get my cheapness.

Meat is a very poor source of protein. Soy isn't an amazing source but it's way better than meat. Almonds are an AWESOME source.

The exception to the meat thing is insects. Almost pure protein.

Same goes for iron, veggies are a much better source, unless you have a ery specific type of anemia which makes it so you can only absorb iron from meat.

/just sayin', not preaching.

If you're not in bad shape, then you have nothing to feel bad about! And this cookie you offer only sweetens the deal!

I get cheapness. I'm trying to be a bad influence!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry, I eat lots of things. Very often I eat a bag of broccoli for dinner. I ate tofu on Monday night. I am usually all about eating anything (expect fennel, ick).

I want to make cookies tonight but I have a board meeting. :(

You are a bad influence. [livejournal.com profile] seattleforge is even a worse one. :P

[identity profile] sterlingphoenix.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe get some B-vitamins. Those are hard to come by.

You have a board meeting at night?


I don't see [livejournal.com profile] seattleforge in here telling you to get three iPods and a Nintendo DS and a PSP!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... maybe. OR I could take some multi-vitamins for a couple weeks.

Condo board meeting.

Wait, three ipods? Don't worry, once he is home from work he will be all over the temptation of spending my money.

[identity profile] sterlingphoenix.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, take some multivitamins that have iron and potassium and vitamin b in 'em. Or eat some marmite. Mmm, marmite.

Yeah, three ipods. You need a touch and a nano and an iphone which kinda counts, too!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe I should get a new shuffle too. :P

[identity profile] sterlingphoenix.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, get a Sensa instead.

[identity profile] seattleforge.livejournal.com 2008-07-27 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
Because I don't like the PSP. Pffft!

If I were to pick one it would be the Ipod Touch.

[identity profile] sterlingphoenix.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
I don't like the PSP either, nor the Nintendo DS, nor, uh, some of the ther things, for sure. What's that got to do with getting Bertine to buy everything?

[identity profile] seattleforge.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Good point.

[identity profile] seattleforge.livejournal.com 2008-07-27 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
I just want you to be happy. ;-)

[identity profile] damncutekitty.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Twitter went all wonky today and erased followings. It's weird because my profile still showed all the icons of the people I was following so I just clicked on them all again and clicked "follow" again on all of them. Supposedly they are going to fix it. I'm ctherese on Twitter, by the way.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't ahve that. It makes me sad.

However, I added you! Woo!

[identity profile] damncutekitty.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay!

[identity profile] sacramentalist.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you say pesky cat????


[identity profile] sacramentalist.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
This is life with Oliver

And that's totally me sitting on the arm-rest not knowing what to do.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Oliver is so cute though I still ♥ Chester.

Harriet is the nicest cat to snuggle up to. She just lays on your lap and purrs so happily!

Get a DS. Nintendo is supreme.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
But an iTouch (or nano)!

9. Now that civ4 is on the DS I sort of want one of those. Which should I get a DS or an itouch?

Get both and call it a good geek day.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I am freaking out over buying one. Two would be too much.

[identity profile] ctakahara.livejournal.com 2008-07-25 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Is Civ4 on the DS? I thought it was Civilization Revolution, which is a completely different style of game.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-25 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
It is more or less the same. It is civ revolution but stripped down to be a quicker play.

[identity profile] melissa-maples.livejournal.com 2008-07-25 09:02 am (UTC)(link)
Your followers should be back by now, hopefully.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-07-25 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
They are. YAY!!!

[identity profile] seattleforge.livejournal.com 2008-07-27 08:15 am (UTC)(link)
Which should I get a DS or an itouch?

Oooohh.. We have both. I never touch the DS. But my son is attached to it. Heck, Jackie plays with it loads as well.

I always play with my sister's when it is up here. This is hard!!
