Good luck, bad luck...?

Delayed but prolonged and violent reaction to gout meds sees me five pounds lighter than a week ago. I shall hope the fireworks are over, finally, especially as I've eschewed any kind of pain killers at all today. That I'm not crippled by this is a testament to what losing five pounds can do for you.

Otherwise amused myself with the wayback machine and the aestheticism site. Oh, so *that's* what I was doing in the late 90s! I'd almost completely forgotten.

Congratulations on the weight loss, sympathy on how it took place.

The experience at least serves to remind me that, really, I do feel different at this weight and maybe it's worth passing up a croissant or two to stay here.

I think I've told you this before, but I go back to Aestheticism about once a year (usually around Christmas for some reason) and have a good rifle through the archives. It's got a special place in my fannish heart, has that site.

I knew someone said they used the wayback to read aesthe- so it was you!

It naturally has a place in my heart as well, but for once I understand petronia's attitude that nostalgia is painful, because it rubs your face in the fact that something is gone for good.
