A hot loss and a chance to curry favour at the hairdressers

Of course after the initial weight off rush it has slowed to a crawl but as always I am in far too much of a hurry and therefore get very impatient. I must admit last night was the first meal in ten days that I actually felt I had eaten enough, a rather delish homemade vegetable curry. Oh how our tastes change over time. There was a time that even vegetables were viewed as the devils food. I mean who would want to eat green food, green means something has gone off! As for spicy food, my, my you'd be lucky to get me to eat that but now... I suppose the only food I dislike is Thai. Too hot and too watery, all that semi-clear anemic liquid with a nice slick of oil floating on the top, oh how yum, not! I suppose it is coming from an age when such things were unavailable, well almost unheard of.

It always intrigues me, how one can be so wrapped up in something until you give it a miss one day, that day turns into another and so on. Time was I would spend ages on Flickr, posting pictures, looking at the statistics, having a nose round and now its been over a fortnight since I logged in and realised what a waste of time it was, a very similar feeling I got when I left Fastbuck. I just post pictures to Ipernity and log off again. One might say even that is a waste of time but it does both give me something to do with the pictures I take and a reason to take more. I know some people think comments on their pictures almost give them a reason for living but to me they are just opinions especially when I used to see some of the comments put against utterly dire pictures. Not just esthetically dire but out of focus snaps that would have been deleted at first glance by me. I wouldn't even want people to know I'd taken them, that my level of skill had sunk so low. Mind you this place is not much better. Having received hits from some 'odd' places I investigated. Seems some porn sites hit blogging sites just so you trace them back as they get paid per click. Well the discussions over this are amazing, people placing so much importance on how many times they are getting hit and how they really need accurate statistics. Oh get a life.

Well the internet comes to the rescue yet again. Sally's the hairdressing supply company no longer sell 12%/40 volume bleach to the general public only that weaker useless stuff, so a quick look on Amazon and no end of people wanted me to buy it and cheaper. Ordered Friday and got here yesterday, brilliant. Lets hope the 100 blank DVD's I ordered yesterday get here as quickly.
