Veronica Mars was so good tonight, I really didn't want it to end. There are only four episodes left this season and I'm really starting to consider looking for spoilers to find out why whoever it was crashed the bus. It has to be Steve Gutenberg, though, it's always the famous person. It was last season with Lily Kane's killer.

That was a good rule of thumb for Law and Order too, always the famous guest star. Why else appear on the show if you can't be the criminal. It's more fun to be bad.

So, obviously I'm leading this full, rich life because of all the TV I'm watching and writing about. Perhaps it's time to play outside, or find real life people to interract with. Feel like you've been missing a lot since I haven't been writing? Not so much.

Since we've gotten movie channels I don't watch TV shows now, just movies, but this month it's been a real suckfest. Despite this, if I'm really trying to avoid doing something productive I will watch Ice Princess. I've now seen it more than once, though not from start to finish.

Because I'm following a new fitness rule, though, this TV gluttony should come down to a reasonable level. One article suggested that you get an hour of TV per half hour of exercise you do. It's only been two days, but I'm two for two.

Since last I wrote I've been doing any number of different diets. I've done Weight Watchers online, which always fell apart on the weekends. I've started the Curves Six Week Solution, which I lost interest in after week two, and most recently I've tried the South Beach Diet. It really is true about these fad diets, though, if you aren't into the food it's very difficult to keep on it. Of them all, and now I'm in a position to make this statement, Weight Watchers was the best because it lets you work with the food you want, as apposed to dictating what you should eat. There are meal suggestions, there are tons of recipes, but it's up to you as long as you fit into the Points allowance.

Anyway, last time I was weighed I'd lost three pounds, which is pretty good, but for the length of time I've been dieting it's actually pretty crappy. The problem is not being able to stick with any of these plans because of a lack of will power. I know that this is pathetic, and probably very telling, but it's really hard to give up alcohol. I don't want to, I LIKE beer, and ditto for wine. I don't want to be told that I can't or shouldn't have them. If I want to have drinks on Weight Watchers I pretty much have to give up eating anything that day, and no treats at all that week. Despite that, I'm thinking of doing it again and really sticking to it this time. I think I could do better this time.

What have all of you been up to? Anyone still visit to see if I'm writing? I sure hope so.
