I'm ending the sugar free experiment today
I think my gut is a bit less flabby
The belly is still there , and I can still pinch-an-inch , but it feels more firm
I immediately went back to my old diet -- pop , chocolate milk , candy , cookies , sugary breakfast cereals
I hope I didn't shock my system too much with the influx of sugar

million dollar idea: "Half a Christmas Tree" -- bisect the tree up the middle so you have one flat side that can be pressed up against the wall, and you can sell the same tree twice
For the past year , I've developed an eye and nose twitch
I haven't figured out the exact cause
an allergy ? too much time staring at the computer screen ? something i'm eating ?
This was one reason I decided to cut sugar out of my diet
It seemed to go away during the past month
So I might have to experiment with my diet again to see exactly what is causing it
sugar ? caffeine ? chocolate ? sugary breakfast cereals ?

when Superman wakes up with 'morning wood' and has to pee,
do you think he flies himself horizontally over the toilet so he doesnt have to bend his dick ?

just learned that "what shall we do with the drunken sailor" is the same tune as "one little, two little, three little indians"
Went to Annie's for a family get together
Tommy , Patti , Annie , Mom
We went out for food and chatted for a bit
I got into another argument with Patti about how terrible humans are
Before , I would go months and years without interacting with my brothers and sisters
Now, they insist on frequent phone calls and meet ups
I expect the change in attitude started when Tim died
Then Dad , Jim , and Rocky shortly after
And their kids are all grown up and moved out , so they're bored with empty nests
And they think they need to save me from lonliness after Rocky died
What they don't realize is that I've gone my entire life without them in my life
Most of them are more than ten years older than me
We don't have any fond childhood memories growing up together
When I was a kid , they were just older people that I'd occasionally see at family gatherings
like some distant cousins
Unless they were the ones living in the house , then they were old people that
It didn't help that our parent's divorce split the family
Normally , siblings fight with each other
I had to fight with their children , my nieces and nephews
and any dispute would end with me getting yelled at by their parents , my brothers and sisters
And my own mother would never come to my defense
So it was me against the world
Now , I am relatively happy secluding myself from other human beings
I am okay with being low or no contact with any of them
but they insist on forcing themselves on me
Gods , I want to go off on these assholes and angrily remind them of our lack of any familial bonds
My right arm suddenly started hurting tonight
I'm pretty sure it's some nerve pain
It only hurts when I try to lift my arm up
Nothing I can do about it other than wait for it to go away or resign myself to being in pain for the rest of my life
This whole week off work has been completely useless
I roll out of bed , plop myself in front of my computers for the whole day , then go back to bed
I did manage to watch a lot of anime and other shows --
I'm the Villaness So I'm Taming the Final Boss , In the Land of Leadale , The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady , Oh Suddenly Egyptian God , Chillin' in My 30s After Getting Fired from the Demon King's Army , Banished from the Hero's Party I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Country , Reacher , What If ?
End of the year
I've heard a lot of people saying 2023 was especially bad
I didn't notice anything more terrible than any other recent year
I was preparing myself for the PC Renewal project to get dumped , and I'd lose my job
but that didn't happen
