I post some of my vintage ads to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
vintage_ads, and one of them got linked to Boing Boing, and then a second one was linked in the comments, so I am currently enjoying being Internet Famous for a minute or two. Although that's not really the case - it's just that it's an amusing ad campaign and I am the mere scan-monkey. Still and all, I'm enjoying the rush of hits, even though I really had nothing to do with it! I felt like this when one of them showed up at Jezebel, so woot and all that. It's fun to watch my little hit counter, unused to all this activity, soar upwards!
I had lunch outside today. People, do you know how long it's been since I was able to do that? Seriously. Except I ate what I thought would be a perfect meal - a sandwich on flatbread, with a can of diet soda, and my BG an hour after was 147, which is higher than I want to be (trying to stay under 130). According to the sub shop website, my total carb load that meal should have only been 38 grams, which is about half of what I'm permitted a meal. Arrgh, frustrating.
And in other news, my Italy essay for work is mostly done, and I guess it's ok that it's much longer than it needs to be (my wordcount was 2600, and I only needed 1800). I'll also have to chop it down to act as a newsletter article, and also crank out an additional short piece and I'll be done with my newsletter assignments. Nnngh.
