I just ate an entire Pizza.  900 calories; 330 of them from fat.  Only I put some more cheese on it so make that 1200 calories with 500 of them from fat.  Awsome.    Bookmark and Share Powered by Bookmarkify™

My poor neglected blog… oh how I miss you – NOT!  But I do have a few things to say and I will say them soon.  I’m sure not having an update from me is just about killing all 3 of my readers but hold tight!  I’ll be back soon with something… something…. and hopefully [...]

I was agonizing over what to write about when lo and behold I was tagged by Misty.  I am supposed to list 5 things I’m addicted to. Addiction is too strong a word (for a recovered co-dependent person like me) but using the word lightly we have: 1)  FaceCrack aka FaceBook – I feel quite [...]

  I’m doing something ‘for cause’.  The cause is fighting ALS.  ALS is a very nasty disease that takes its victims lives slowly – one digit, one limb, one body part at a time.   Life goes on for months and months but gets harder and harder as the afflicted marches inexorably to his or her [...]

I’ve been thinking about food a lot lately.  First I was thinking about how to get rid of the Christmas weight (which was only about 2.5 pounds – yay!) and then I was thinking about how food will soon become the thing I can’t get enough of as my training ramps up. And I was [...]

I must be getting boring because the comments have dwindled to a trickle. But never mind that because I have more important matters to discuss than the drivel that describes my life. My daughter’s friend has made a pilot for she hopes will be a 6 episode web show. She needs to show the money [...]

If you’ve never read anything by Doris Kearns Goodwin you would do well to check her out.  She is an historian with a PhD in government from Harvard who worked as an assistant to LBJ and who is married to  a guy who served under both Kennedy and Johnson.  In addition to being well schooled [...]

I’m sorry but I have a few things to say about… the campaign.  I’M SORRY!  1).  As someone who is paying for her own health care coverage I’m am stunned and frightened by McCain’s “solution”.  I live for the day when I am employed and have decent health care coverage, subsidized by my employer. And [...]

I’ve been running more lately in preparation for the Nike Half Marathon.  If you know me then you know that training for a half marathon is not something I normally do.  Generally speaking I make sure I’ve got a couple of 6 and 8 mile runs under my belt before the big event (or maybe [...]
