Rules

I have rules on my mind: Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP!), personal rules...


I broke a few last night. I like having a plan, and I was going to eat the Roommate's black bean soup (healthy!) with a mini-panini. I returned from kickboxing high on endorphins, showered, and headed downstairs to find little dots of blue all over my mini panini rolls! So I ate my soup and felt vaguely unsatisfied. I then proceeded to eat some greek yogurt with FiberOne, chocolate chips, Kashi crackers...it was bad. Then I had a glass of wine. Stress eating at its finest, ladies and gents!

For the first time ever, I read the comments on a post at KathEats.com . I was a little taken aback! People were rude. I was shocked! I think of personal blogs as being a part of a person's home, and to me it seemed a lot like walking into someone's house and mocking their furniture and possibly even their children. The complaints seemed to come from a few people who were either upset about 1) Kath's focus on food 2) Kath's devotion to exercise or 3) her posting ONLY about her own life.

Well...it's a blog about her lifestyle of healthy eating and activity. DUH. There were many layers to what was going on--some of the comments were made by people in recovery from eating disorders, and that's a sensitive topic--but eating disorders or not, people were just mean. If that ever happened here, I would immediately make this blog private. But since I'm an attorney-to-be, I'm sure that no one would ever mess with me! I love litigation, and I'm not afraid to beat the crap out of someone in a courtroom.

Today's breakfast: more pear oatmeal! I am going to grab a banana this weekend to see if I like it with oatmeal. If not, I think I might try some frozen berries just to mix things up. Or maybe a Rome apple since they end up being so soft when cooked.

Anyway, I have to get back to studying. We're going over stuff from the beginning of the quarter in Civ Pro II today, and I only have a vague memory of what is going on...
