The Visible Woman...March 24, 2003

I spend a lot of the day organizing for the party we are giving tomorrow night. Printing name cards, menus and wine glass tags. Cutting circles for the tags, ironing linens. I visit World Market to buy a couple of cheap wine Carafes. As long as I was there, I looked around in Circuit City and Mikasa. Lots of nice dishes and glasses in the Mikasa store.

I did make it to the gym. I did the (mostly) upper body workout that includes rowing, narrow lat pulldowns, chest press, flies and stuff. I rode the bike before and after. My weight loss has certainly plateaued but maybe, just maybe I'm building some muscle? Nah....

For dinner we have chicken with tomato sauce and cheese and salad and cheese and onions. Thank goodness FFP can find the wherewithal to cook. I would eat salad or nachos all the time. Or just cheese standing in the refrigerator door.

We watch some TV, I read the papers. Bed.

But too much 'publicity' is destructive to a diary, because the diarist begins, unconsciously perhaps, to leave out, to tone down, to pep up, to falsify experience, and the reason for the undertaking becomes buried beneath posings."
