Former cop/military veteran! He's older than I thought he would be since a lot of the early sketches looked like someone in their late teens & not their late twenties.
Not a lot is being revealed yet, but I am thinking someone related to the suspect (familial DNA gave a sample) finally came forward.
Now to figure out the Zodiac killer or the Long Island serial killer.
That is awesome! That's some good police work.
Rant warning: You know what kills me, though? If someone worked as a cop for 6 months, and got fired for incompetence and then gets arrested later, the news stories always say "former cop." No note that it was for 6 months, however many years ago, and that he has been a carpenter, dishwasher and taxi driver since.
What's even more crazier is he was arrested for shoplifting dog repellent (obvious thing to use in ransackings & other home invasion crimes) & a hammer. You would think that back then someone would scratch their head & put two & two together. That would have prevented this sick creep from elevating to committing murders.
I'm pretty jazzed about this whole thing and it's such an interesting (and sorta sad) connection to Patton Oswalt who I also like a lot.
What's the connection to Patton Oswalt?! I didn't read about that. I always liked his comedy.

I have a tremendous amount of job stress at the moment, and I wonder how much the Mirena is really contributing to what seems to be an incredible amount of PMS eating in the week leading up to TOM. Not sure how to totally get a handle on it, but I think I'm going to eat at what I think is maintenance for the next few weeks. I had done a legit diet break back around xmas and have really kind of floundered since then. I run a lot, then get runger, then eat, then get my weird overeating thing (yesterday was simply so absurd I'm not even sure I can share it).
I figure a week at maintenance at home and a week of maintenance-ish on vacation should help me reset to where I need to be. When I come back from vacation, I start a new position. While it will be a little stressful learning new stuff, the position is actually a bit less stressful than what I'm used to.
I hope things get easier soon

Personally, I would try to flip the salad and alcohol calories, but that's a lot of salad, unless you're eating grilled chicken in it.2 -

I do all my batch cooking on Sundays. I honestly do not know how people cook after working all day, if they have something to do in the evenings!
I hate cooking after work. That's part of the reason I haven't been doing so well when it comes to the diet. Just random munching then trying to figure out what to cook, then eating again. Not working. It has to get better.1 -
Ok, I am officially nervous now. If this doesn't shake me up to get serious, not sure what will. I have been checking my fasting glucose levels and have had two consecutive readings of 179 and this morning was 283. Diabetes runs in my family and I need to get a grip on this before it gets worse.7

His now-deceased wife was actively researching and writing a book about the Golden State Killer when she died. She was an investigative journalist. Patton hired someone to help finish the book/research and it is somewhat credited for making the case fresh again for the police to research.2 -

I moved my daughter home for the summer yesterday. There was such a traffic slow down in Knoxville that my fitbit counted 18 minutes of my drive as biking outdoors.
I am glad she is home. I am aggravated that she put none of her stuff away last night.

Tequila-drinking on the beach with a good book sounds fantastic! I'm going camping and can replicate the idea with a lake. Totally going to happen!2 -
My baby boy is FOURTEEN today. He wants jambalaya and Samoa pie for his birthday dinner and "birthday cake." I'm definitely not meeting any calorie goals today.

I googled Samoa pie after I saw you mentioned it yesterday to the filthy eaters club. That sounds....amazing.3

@Italian_Buju I need to start batch cooking on my days off to limit the times I come home from work & end up eating cereal, ice cream, or other junky foods.2 -

There are some starter pictures in the original "filthy eaters" thread.
In fact.... here ya go. I still need to put the topping on them.
