I guess Craigslisting is a verb. Oh well, it is now! :)

Still purging our gobs of extra computer parts. So far we've made over $500 on just dumping old motherboards, drives, cases, etc. It feels so good to purge, you know. Almost like there's a weight off my shoulders. I'd ideally like to get down to just what we are currently using, with a few "just in case" parts. No more saying, "I'll keep it because someday I might know somebody who might need it."

I'm looking forward to my trip on Sunday down to San Francisco. I'm going to a little business gathering that is usually quite relaxed and enjoyable. Back home on Wednesday, then OFF on the 17th on my annual sojourn down south to Puerto Vallarta. I can't wait! Woot! Now the key is to stay healthy until then. Three plane rides during flu season will not be fun. :(

So we've been loading up on our vitamins and fruits and veg. Today we had salmon sandwiches for lunch, and tonight I made a vegetarian fettuccine with zucchini, tomatoes, red onion, and mushrooms. I've been taking Michael Pollan's suggestion to heart, and even wrote it (paraphrased) on the white board on my fridge:

"Eat real food,
mostly plants,
and not too much."

It makes sense, and it's easy to repeat in my head when I'm feeling snacky and craving carbs. He advises not to eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn't recognize as food, which is right in line with my own desire to not let scientists and marketers do my cooking for me. He doesn't necessarily advocate giving up meat entirely, which I would not do. Instead, I change the ratio of meat to plants, which is really quite easy.

Live long and prosper, everyone!
