My Blog

Last year, at the urging of a slightly crazy girlfriend (thank YOU, Anita!), I joined a dating website and have seen and heard the weirdest, absolutely strangest things ever, ever.

Let's start with the man who lists that he MUST have a woman who is fit and respects herself. He insists that she MUST send a photo or don't even bother responding. Does HE have a photo? No, of course not. Here's a news flash, Mr Hollywood. WE want a picture OR we won't even dream of responding! Sheesh.

Here I am sitting in an airport waiting for a flight and I have my work laptop with me. Gosh, what a fun toy! It's impossible to sleep in these awful chairs so instead I get to check my email and surf the net. Fun! Dick Tracey wudda been all over this new fangled stuff. <insert big evil grin>

So I frantically finished an appraisal to the best of my ability today and about lost my sanity. How do people stay above the line when they are overwhelmed? Hmm. I think that's a good question to as... read more

I bought a pair of pants last week and didn't try them on (Costco). They were 16's and I figured I'd be lucky to zip them up. Well, to make a long story short, they turned out to be 14's and they fit. Part of me is suspicious: the factory musta made a mistake and made a whole slew of pants too big. The other part of me wants to do a happy dance! A year ago I was a 20 and now I'm a 14! All I've done is eat more healthy food (basically no white crap) and I've been walking a minimum of 30 minute... read more

I have had a recent revelation... sometimes I get this awful gnawing feeling in the pit of my stomach that feels like hunger but I can eat and it is still there. It just won't go away for the longest time. It finally dawned on me that the feeling is not hunger but loneliness! I know when I am sad and crying, my chest hurts right over/around my heart which is why I always understood why people described sadness as a "broken heart". It's because it really DOES feel like my heart has broken. Of ... read more

These are ones I've seen myself or friends and family have passed them on. Let me know if you have any good ones!

"Fasten your seatbelt. It makes it harder for the aliens to suck you out of your car."
"Get a taste of magic... lick a witch!"
"YOU! Out of the gene pool!"
"Come to the dark side. We have cookies!" This one was accompanied by a smiley face!

Seriously, I saw the following on a car in Portland. The worst part of it was my boss' boss, from the east Coast (think suit and tie... read more

Re: Milk and the brain (in Healthy Food for Lazy People) My oldest son was diagnosed with a seizure disorder. After years of meds, he wanted to try something different so he could try and reduce or get off the meds. He became a MD who also went to Naturopath school. The first thing he did was promptly t... read more

Re: What can I bring for lunch to the office?? (in Healthy Food for Lazy People) Cut up mango/strawberries/some juicy-type fruit with unflavored yogurt for a mid-morning snack. Low fat popcorn, fruit, broth based veggie soup for a pm snack. And I get everything done the night before mainly because I am a zombie in the morning ... read more

Re: What can I bring for lunch to the office?? (in Healthy Food for Lazy People) I learned this from Jennie Craig: frozen dinners. Added benefit: it taught me portion control. I wouldn't say the JC frozen meals are all that healthy compared to some other brands, like Amy's, but the idea is a good one and I still bring frozen d... read more
