Gaming:
Xillia: It's nice to be able to use Leia again. So much fun! That said, I heard it was possible to beat the thing in the Vicalle Mine with just Jude and Leia, but... yeah, I doubt that's true with 2x EXP on Unknown. Even with the Devil's Arms, best armor available, a 40% Defense boost from foodstuffs, and an All-Divide, I got flattened in 30 seconds. I usually didn't last half that. Ugh.

Weight loss:
Only update is 1400 steps on a relaxing day yesterday. Weekends are necessary for recovery. For once I didn't have a pizza over the weekend... what is with me?

Next thing I'm cooking is a rice dish with beef, bacon, green onions, and soy sauce. Keeping it simple and delicious.

No other updates. Will weigh self tomorrow after I go for 800 calories today. Famishing myself is NOT fun, but it's only temporary. Once my weight improves, I can increase it to 1200 for those two days and make my goal maintaining it. Today, intent is:
210 for morning salad (most of that the white meat chicken)
100 for the banana
90 for the FiberOne Brownie
30 for the berry cup
200 for the peanuts
170 for the smoothie

That's what one of these "fasting days" looks like (some are estimated). Another 400 would let me have a proper lunch. It would be three light meals in a day as opposed to two. On at least two non-fasting days a week, dinner has to be light.

Biggest worry is the holidays. The goal is to keep my weight steady from Thanksgiving through Christmas. Urk. That's not going to be easy.

Rant time:
I'm bored. The plus side of a boring job is that I get paid to be bored. But it certainly feels like my life is unfulfilling because all I do is stare at a computer screen all day, doing redundant work and browsing GameFAQS to keep my sanity - a sanity that it feels like is unwanted due to "concerns." In other words, they don't trust me in regards to "getting a virus." Misconceptions and whatnot.

Due to moving out in December, it's a time where stability is necessary for that same sanity, even if my job is boring and wants to be even more boring. I have asked for additional duties for nearly two years and while I'm finally getting some, one of them is nothing different from what I already do and the other is a headache.

I want to keep this job because I love the location, the people are wonderful and understanding of me, the benefits are phenomenal, and I legit want to work for my boss. But the duties are boring, are wasting and/or dumbing down my abilities, and so redundant that it's getting to me. I am not in a job that encourages growth or development. Even though I am now a State employee as opposed to a contractor, this still feels like a dead end! WHY?

Rant over. Thank you for listening. If you have any advice, please do tell!

Song of the Day:
On a more positive note...

The Beatles/George Harrison - Here Comes the Sun

Can't go wrong with a classic brighten-up song.

The rest
Australian Survivor: Just the Super Idol episode. Unfortunate that Ziggy was the one, as it would have had way crazier results had it been, say, AK. The best part of the episode was when the Survivors were grilling the host as opposed to vice-versa... and much like contestants do, he was dodging questions and giving blunt, vague, and/or untruthful answers. Hysterical.
American Football: Referees suck. HOW THE FUCK WAS THAT ROUGHING THE PASSER? Can you not sack a QB anymore without being penalized? It's BS. I might not watch any more NFL this year...
