Congratulations! I am so excited for you!!! And have you been humming "Take this job and shove it" all day? I know that when I left my last job, I wasn't just humming it, I was singing it at the top of my lungs! Great badass pictures, BTW. Very cool! I am SO jealous! I can't do shit until I get this stupid brace off my leg (another week or so), and even then I'm restricted to no-resistance bike riding. *sigh

THANK YOU! i just spent an entire weekend with my parents (more than enough) in which my dad told me that "i didn't need that bagel, because carbs were bad for me and i should never eat them." considering he married a woman who stopped eating bread three years ago, i vaguely understand where he's coming from, but... having been a competetive swimmer for 7 years, i don't think i would have survived some races without the occasional carb-loading (i did distance). congrats on your last race, and good luck on this one (i was kind of scared by the entry from last year too. hopefully this year is better.)

Argh, the Atkins-crazed low-carb gustocult. I couldn't believe that people were being sold on a diet that forbade fruit. Um, yeah. We all know how terrible fruit is for you.

Anyway. Congrats on the new job! It sounds, oh, decent. Any place so unfriendly that there's no place to read on your break is not worth it.

My jealousy is at an all-time high as I wait for my own evil job to end. Congratulations on getting out. On a second note, I got to eat an apple in front of one of my low-carb dieting co-workers. She looked pained. Ha!

Word to the third on the carbs, girl. CONGRATULATIONS on leaving the shithole! Your new job sounds great, now we need to find a new one for me.

Congrats on the new job! Sounds like a little slice of heaven. In fact, it sounds just like a fresh everything bagel from a NY deli with just a bit of shmear. Carbs are good. Nothing wrong with them. Sing it!

I was on the Atkins diet, back in the olden days when all you could eat was...steak. And it sucked. I suffered and suffered and then I got mad and quit. Now, everytime I see the low carb stuff, I get pissed, mostly because I couldn't eat any of that when I was on the diet! Argh. I sound like my dad. I had to diet UPHILL, both ways, BAREFOOT in the SNOW! Dammit!
