Sure-fire weight-loss program

I lost six pounds in two days! No fun at all when it's accomplished by firehose-style evacuation from both ends, sometimes simultaneously. No kidding, it's been a ferocious weekend. Grumpy was a sweetheart, cleaning up after me and sympathizing. Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea marrying a nurse. 

Today I set my alarm for yoga class, got up, and got right back into bed, dizzy. Nothing doing. I'll catch up on reading for my Canadian Literature class, finally a book from farther north, Yellowknife. Various odd sorts from all over for random reasons end up there, working at a radio station. The quality of light plays a large role.

I have a plan. This summer I'm taking a solitary road trip north. I've been wanting to visit Montreal for years, and I hear that farther north from there is absolutely beautiful. I'll take notebooks, soak up my environs, and write inspired poetry.
