One week on, I’m down about 6lbs, which is around 10% of the goal. Today is a low day (that is, 1350 calo­ries), and I was still com­ing up short by the end of the day so I hit the chips and queso after din­ner… which I’ve got to say is addic­tive once you get past the fact it tastes like com­plete ass. And I mean “tastes like ass” the way that cig­a­rettes and Mt. Dew taste like ass after you’ve gone a few weeks with­out any.

Work was not nearly as pro­duc­tive as I wanted it to be: I updated cobbler’s createrepo_flags options on my repos­i­to­ries to use –update, and promptly got the OOM killer fired up at the next repo­sync. The option makes the syn­chro­niza­tion process more rea­son­able in terms of time, but com­pletely nukes the box while doing so. Tomorrow I play around and see if repo­sync can be made to run as some­one other than root…

I grabbed some Yoko Ono yes­ter­day, and while the Basement Jaxx remix of Everyman, Everywoman is pretty slick, the whole Open Your Box album feels very dated in 2009. Maybe it was fresh a cou­ple years ago, but it’s Techno: By The Book, so I really doubt it. Next up on the rota­tion is Faunts’ lat­est, which actu­ally is pretty fresh, in the few months old sorta way.
