The Gym. We love to hate it, but an estimated 45.3 million Americans have a gym membership of some kind. Some of us go to lose weight, some of us go to bulk up, some of us go because our gyms have free daycare, and some of us go because we like to lay by … Continue reading »

Do Birds Have Threesomes?
I think my attack pigeons are having a threesome. Either that, or they’ve brought in a sister wife. All I know is that there are now three attack pigeons sharing one nest, when there used to be two. I have no problem with it– good for them– but they’ve got eggs and I don’t really … Continue reading »
Big Bad Spaghetti Run
Yesterday was my first race of the season. It also was my first real run since last October. I’ve been focused so much more on boot camp and general fitness, and so much less on distance running. Which is enjoyable, because distance running is hard and crappy. I know some people really like slogging along … Continue reading »
Uuuuurrrrgggghhhh
I am downstairs at the computer. Chris is still in bed, though I think he’s up because he just posted a comment to my previous blog entry. I think I might throw up, and my eyes are all gunked up and hard to see through. My left arm has a series of lines and circles … Continue reading »
Lunch Lady Land
Do you see how tiny this bread is? I put it on top of a bar of cheap unsweetened chocolate to show you its petite stature. Kind of how Venus Williams is going to have to date that giant from the Green Mile if she ever wants to feel like a delicate flower and not … Continue reading »
Sweet, honeyed goodness
Here is a picture of an apple buttermilk corn-cake I made two nights ago, covered in the maple-cinnamon mascarpone cream I made in the blender at the last minute. It is the only real food you will see in this post, and it was delicious alongside the creamy chicken and wild rice soup we had … Continue reading »
Shakin’ my bon-bon, so to speak
For those of you who may not have ever seen me in person, I am ridiculously tall, especially considering my teensy Lilliputian of a mother. I am of the Express/Hollister/Abercrombie school of outfits. I rarely wear anything on my feet that doesn’t have the little swoosh on them, lovingly embroidered by the delicate, nimble fingers … Continue reading »
Pita for me, pita for you
When I reward my puppy for something, he’ll do it over and over again, even when I’ve stopped requesting it, under the vain hope that there is a never ending fountain of biscuits he can keep harvesting by presenting the behavior. The first time I told him to “go to bed” and he tested his … Continue reading »
Lazy Lunch
Okay, first off, I have to say Maria Menounos is a whore. Here’s why; I spent the morning (after a bike ride, of course) tromping around the kitchen with uncomfortable velcro rollers stuck to my scalp because Maria Menounos has been pimping Pantene Pro-V and has perfect hair in the commercials. She claims that she … Continue reading »
Catching up and similarities
I have GOT to find my charger for my actual camera and stop taking pictures with my iPhone. I love my phone, don’t get me wrong. Any phone that can survive a swim in a pot of water and “filbert” skins is a gift in and of itself. But the iPhone camera makes all my … Continue reading »
