My HMO offers weight watcher style meetings. There's an initial thing that you do, but it's only offered at 6 pm on the first Tuesday of every month. Or at 4 pm on Wednesdays. So I went to the general meeting, there was food diary and a little check off thing for each day where you can mark carbs, water, veggies, etc.

Of course I go to the grocery store and get frozen pizza (on sale) and Buy one get one free Ben and Jerry's. But I can't eat a lot of ice cream at one time so it lasts. But I also picked up veggies I like to eat and I'm not going to do any more experiments with food for awhile.

Also, I have this book that's...it's beyond bad fic. I'm not sure how something like this gets published. It's one of those sexed up romanace novels. It starts off in the year 2502, the land of cliches. Seriously, everything is white, there's no violence, there's no disease, only a few people use water to clean the rest use Air Scrubbers and Evapo Driers. And the hero is a star athelete. In sex. For whatever reason I haven't been able to find out (because I can only stomach a few pages of this at at time) sex is the equivlant of football. There's even Monday Night Sex and the Sex Superbowl. It's a team sport. And this guy is getting his naked body on a cereal container. Really.

But, he decides to go back in time and visit his ancestoral home. Which happens to be a castle in Ireland. Where he meets a chick and her great aunt. I think the chick is a writer. There's a bit of role playing a lot of really really bad dialouge. The hero, ends most of his sentences with "babe" and WAIT! I just discovered that the heroine's life's been in danger and it turns out it's ex husband's new wife. Who is jealous about how "prefect" the heroine was for her husband and is now going to kill the heroine. The psychotic new wife tried several ways but in the end she's a demolition expert, except in the end the Old One saves the hero and the heroine and the heroine's great aunt and the psychotic new wife dies in the explosion. Which I saw coming as soon as I read the words "I'm a demolition's expert".

The hero stays behind in 2002 and becomes his own great whatever grandfather. The end.
