So far so good today with respect to my food intake:
Breakfast: coffee and one plain bagel
Lunch: Progresso Weight Watcher’s Soup (1 point — I love this stuff).
Snack: bag of popcorn
Dinner: Spaghetti and Meatballs (4 small ones), bread, salad
Worked out for thirty minutes on the Orbitrek; it seems to be working better after several phone calles to Thane and a conversation with their product specialist.
The kids are all swimming the late workout tonight. It’s been a quiet evening here just watching the returns from North Carolina and Indiana. I have enjoyed watching the democrats implode here the last few weeks. Really, I believe Obama has painted himself in a corner. I can’t see the nomination going to Hillary, but she will not go quietly. The whole MIchigan and Florida debacle is just amazing to me; they brought it on themselves. It makes one wonder, if the democrats can’t run a party or a primary, how is it they think they can run the country?
Generally speaking, I think that the two-party system presents a false choice, doesn’t it? It’s the powerful and priviliged who want to maintain their position. It’s the little people out there like you and me — the invisible ones — who keep the country afloat: the teachers, the clerks, the police and fire service people, etc. We are happy to get by and raise our children; there is a nobility there, at least it seems to me.
