Odd Still Life

Hello. It’s me. I know. I’m late. As usual. Things have been kind of freaky around here. Plus I’ve been trying to finish the book. (I’m nearly there. –Cross any two fingers on one hand. Double-crossing is bad luck.)

Remember how I used to talk about my diet. Well, I don’t talk about it anymore. I’ve tried a hundred things and none of them have worked, so I’m going to try something I did when I was 14 and lost 25 pounds over the summer. (It’s nothing terribly, horrible. I was never anorexic or anything. I just lived on vegetables and water for a summer. —Come to think of it I’m not much taller, maybe two inches, than I was when I was 14, maybe that diet stunted my growth.— But, no matter. I have a couple of weeks until That Fabulous Spring Holiday when the Big Bunny brings tons of chocolate to my house, so I think I’ll see how much I can lose between now and then.) I’m keeping a video log of my progress, starting today. I’m going to be as honest as I can with it, meaning I’m not going to tell my weight, but I will tell how much I lose. (The videos will be up on Youtube — under teddytayl — by Easter, if not before.)[Well, that never happened, and this edit is taking place in 2009. Yikes!]

Anyway. . . I’ve had many things to think about since I last posted and I’ve written many of them down on Microsoft Notebook pages. I think I’ll probably be posting those sometime between now and 10:30 my time. (When I relinquish my hold on the phone line. My birthday wish is cable internet.)

Well, it’s been real and it’s been fun, but it hasn’t been real fun. (Hahaha. Just kidding. Actually heard that on Lilo and Stitch last week and it still cracks me up. Am I hopeless, or what?  — Wait, don’t answer that question. Rhetorical? That’s right. Yeah. We’ll go with that. It was rhetorical. — Oh, no, now I’ve got that scene from “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead” stuck in my head. I hate rhetoric!)

Okay. That was weird. I will return. In another post. Not long from now. Pretty soon. See yah.
