SuNoYo Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Has anyone noticed that this thread seems to run on themes, particularly the Body section? I'm going to be joining the current bandwagon, that's for sure. Body 28: My hair is especially voluminous and pretty today, and I'll be touching up the dye as it seems to be fading a bit tomorrow. That's going to be 'Body 29: Spent almost an hour in the shower having a long pamper and dye session.' Food 25: Chicken and bacon caesar salad is made of yumminess. 1 Quote Loading...Loading...Loading...Reboot complete.Level 0 HobbitIntro ¦]"When all treasures are tried . . . truth is the fairest." - Langland Link to comment
Stonie Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hahah, yep, we all seem to notice similar things around similar times. Tuesday the 18th. Body:All of it! I went clothes shopping and nearly died with happiness when I found clothes sizes that I never thought I'd fit into. Also, I bought hot pants. Food:Raw Peanut Satay noodles. No cooking and I have leftover sauce to nom today. Dip all the things!

UnlikelyHeroine Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Body: As I was washing up for bed today, I realized my skin was starting to look very healthy and soft- almost glowing! And the few but previously everpresent pimples were all but vanished. Yay! Food: I adore eating half an avocado dusted with sea salt right after a workout. I eat it straight from the shell with a spoon. 3 Quote Link to comment

Kishi Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 In honor of the 4 hour meeting I attended today that was extremely Robert's Rules of Order-heavy today, I make a motion that Kishi provide a picture of these arms that he really, really likes I think we should all have the pleasure of viewing them. Can I get a second? Oh so seconded. ha ha, if I had a way to do that, I totally would. But all I've got is my laptop camera, and the lighting is always terrible wherever I am. I try to take pictures, and the light gets blocked out. But I'd do it if I could! I'm a vain piece of crap when it comes down to it, and I like showing off.

SuNoYo Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Today has been a day of screaming awfulness; I've talked about it in my current challenge thread, I will not here. Body 30: Until a few hours ago I never realised just how much I relied on my non-dominant hand for such simple things as holding and carrying things.
