Being in Tune with my Body: Reset

( in which i talk about food and not-quite vegetarian options )

I'm not trying to be a vegetarian, exactly, but I am trying to move a little closer to that edge.

So...what about you? Favorite vegetarian foods/dishes, favorite ways to prepare veggies, thoughts about the whole thing?

Star Trek, Books, and the rest of the weekend

So I suppose my last post could have been titled "Holdouttrout: boring people on Mondays since 2007!" except that y'all seem to have totally enjoyed it, which is a big win for me, except that I'm now really, really hungry. And I already ate lunch, too. :-(

I saw Star Trek this weekend. ( My reaction )

Bonus: An article from the Guardian on the "progress" of Star Trek and Abssinia's detailed concerns, which says what I said and more, only better.

Um...So in other news this weekend I read Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs, one of those light little paperbacks about "vampires" that I find addicting like crack. This one has a nicely sarcastic heroine. Fun weekend reading.

I also thought about Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, and the difficulty of understanding in which ways Lizzie is a "strong" female character according to our perception of what a "strong" female character looks like these days. There may be a post on this after I actually read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

I did absolutely no writing, because apparently I couldn't take the pressure any more. I'm not sure when my fingers are going to start itching to write again, but instead of looking at my "to write" list with doom and trepidation in my heart, I'm actually looking forward to it.

I told my mom I loved her and that she was awesome.

I cleaned my room.
