    Day 58 – Tuesday

    Weigh-in on Tuesday at 280.8, up .2 pounds. Total loss of 11 pounds. Considering, I'll take the .2 hit with a smile. OK, so I was expecting bad news this week. I did not do so well sticking to plan. Well, that's not entirely true. I had 20 flex points left over, but the choices I made were sub-optimal. Things I learned: – My favorite McDonald's meal (hamburger, nuggets, fries) just doesn't taste that great anymore. If I'm going to spend that many points, I'd rather have fried seafood at Red Lobster or a really good cheesecake. Mmmmmmcheescake. Good news:…

    Oh yes….

    Fuck Verisign… http://www.icann.org/announcements/advisory-03oct03.htm “In the 10 days since that response, ICANN has had further opportunity to consider the technical and practical consequences of these changes, and to evaluate whether these unilateral actions by VeriSign were consistent with its contractual obligations to ICANN. As set forth in today's letter to VeriSign, ICANN's preliminary conclusion is that the changes to .com and .net implemented by VeriSign on 15 September have had a substantial adverse effect on the core operation of the DNS, on the stability of the Internet and the .com and .net top-level domains, and may have additional adverse effects in…

    Ahhh… a breath of fresh air…

    You Assumed Wrong No, I don't have kids. My husband and I are cheerfully child-free. THERESA CAHILL “SO, HOW MANY KIDS DO YOU HAVE?” For most women, this is an ordinary, everyday question. It's a great icebreaker with someone you really don't know very well. After all, everyone has children, right? When I answer that my husband, Darrin, and I have decided not to have children, the statement is usually met with bewilderment, silence, even disapproval. I can almost hear their thoughts. Why did we get married if we're not going to procreate? And it still seems far more acceptable…
