30 November 2006Oh thank GOD someone finally made an ab machine that simulates horseback riding. I want nothing more than to watch Veronica Mars in my living room while perched on this bad boy:
That’s Brookstone’s iGallop in case you want to order in 12 for christmas.
Reunited, and it feels so good
27 November 2006My older brother and his wife were high school sweethearts in the most classic, football player/ cheerleader Jack & Diane kind of way. He joined the military and she became a teacher and I’m genuinely surprised that their picture hasn’t been put up on the “Welcome To Glen Rock: A Town To Come Home To” signs [...]
I’m athletic now, just fyi
21 November 2006Remember that time I went off on how general relationship happiness was making me fat? Just so you know, nothing has changed. Still happy. And fat. Except, as of four days ago, I now have a gym membership. I don’t even have a real ID card yet (apparently they spring that process on you sometime within [...]

21 November 2006*Isthmus be my lucky day!
Apparently, due to new moons and the alignment of planets, November 21st is the LUCKIEST DAY OF THE YEAR. For EVERYONE. Go here and read your horoscope, then extrapolate wildly until it actually pertains to your life.

20 November 2006On Friday night I had to, yet again, hand over the Most Tolerant Person On Earth award to the Boyfriend, who sat at happy hour surrounded by chicks who were yelling about Laguna Beach.

16 November 2006…where I go after the poor man’s Bon Jovi.
now taking suggestions
14 November 2006Should The Boyfriend and I not come to an untimely demise over the course of the next 3 weeks (by that I mean, should we not break up and NOT should we not get hit by buses and whathave you), I have to figure out a way to express Hey, Thanks For Not Breaking Up [...]
Talking Points
13 November 2006I missed Children’s Book Council trivia night (yes, that link has a picture of me with bad hair in it. Don’t say I never did nothing for you) because I was at sales conference where there was NO trivia but more wine so I guess it evens out. My team won the first year, then [...]
Things I’m Not Okay With
13 November 2006Sport Tampons.
I don’t have a problem with many “performance-based” items… I like my jelly beans, my sports drinks, and my prescription drugs to all be performance-enhancing. But not my feminine hygiene products. Whatever, playtex, sit on it. (Literally! HAH! …okay, sorry, it’s monday).
