My Flog for September 18 + Feeling Groovy, and Digital Blues

Sooooo - feeling better today, no thumping, fluttering, pitter-pattering heart, no headaches (only the two-legged ones that come to suck one dry during a busy busy busy day at work), no dizziness. Good. However, now I'm worried that these pills were the ones that were helping me lose weight. What if they shrank my appetite? Turned me off carbs?

• Snacks - Yogurt, Banana, 5 Strawberries, Diet Pepsi

And to top off my day, I just spent about an hour figuring out how to hook up a digital receiver to my TV, since our cable provider went digital. However, after attaching the bloody coax cables to each of the outlets several times before I lucked onto the right combination (my usual routine, no matter what I'm hooking up), I find out that I still can't get higher than channel 28. Seems Shaw doesn't only want you to have a digital box, they want you to pay extra to use it. (Nasty bad words here.) However, we are moving in less that 2 weeks. I'm not going to go to the trouble of upgrading my cable for just a few days. I can still get Coronation Street, so I don't give much of a ....
