ST yeah, I love that response on the sex too!! You know, if I was in the right ornery mood, I could actually see myself saying that.
Yes, I'm glad on the rent thing too... was really a relief. I felt guilty about it at first but realized tonight - it's kinda like well if you want someone to pay half and you're kicking me out, then find a roommate to pay half. Why in heck did I let myself feel guilty over that??? Makes no sense. I'm over it though.
On the Atkins thing - well, yeah, he died of a heart attack but he had a pre-existing condition for many years that had nothing to do with what he ate, cholesterol, etc. I forget what it was now, but I remember it got all twisted around in the media reporting. The diet doesn't actually cut out all carbs, but that's a big misconception about it. For the first TWO WEEKS only you're under 20 a day and the 20 is pretty much all veggies - but then you add carbs back in gradually at whatever level your body can handle. I know where you're coming from, I had people at work doing it and thought it was some crazy insanely unhealthy fad diet til I actually READ the book, read the maintenance diet, and went "ohhh this makes so much sense!"
It really is funny that if you show a doc the menu they go "This is great!" but if you say "I got this from Atkins" they go "This is so unhealthy!"
(don't get your hopes too high, I think our neighbors must do really lame pumpkins for the kids to get SO excited about this one!)
