Nutrisystem day 2, it's going fine so far.  I get the food in the above photo plus a yogurt, a cheese wedge (Laughing Cow), and salad and brussels sprouts.  Actually all the non starchy veggies I want.  I have not been hungry so far and the food is okay.  That lunch - loaded baked potato - was actually really good.  I am also down four pounds but remember the weight I gained on the cruise so it's really that weight I am losing.  

Today's word of the day is "ad hominem".  It means: 1. appealing to one's prejudices, emotions, or special interests rather than to one's intellect or reason. 2. attacking an opponent's character rather than answering his argument.  I'm still not sure what it means but you know me, I'll put it in a sentence anyway.  The politician was giving a long winded speech and his opponent was ad hominem-ing him whilst talking about his frippery jacket and eating yellow cake with no frosting.

Poker didn't go too well last night and that's all I'm going to say about that.

No games today and it's supposed to rain so I'll have to find something to get into.  No fear, I'll find something to keep me out of trouble and if the rain lets up I will go to the pool.

And that's it from paradise today y'all.  Have a wonderful Prince Spaghetti Day.  I will too, I just won't be having any...
