+ I went to the gym five out of six days this week. Each time I did a challenging hill climb on the elliptical machine for 35 minutes. I am now about six pounds from my goal weight, targeted for the end of the month. Yeah. We’ll see. + As I left the gym, I […]

I am really terrible at this game, but I don’t care. It’s like bowling in that way. I don’t really play to win. My cat Simon can’t stand it when doors in the house are closed, especially if I am on the other side. This morning he was outside the bedroom door, having already been […]

I have been at this company almost eight years. Today we had a going away party for two of the people who have actually been in my division longer. Now I am officially that person who has been here the longest, in a division that literally started out as five people working out of a […]

Maybe because it’s Monday? I can’t muster the motorvation to get some work done. I got as far as putting the papers in order in front of me and saving a template document to use to build the page. Then I made a stupid livejournal icon about big beautiful ears. Zzzzzzzzzzzz. It has been raining […]

Here is a parody of “The O.C.” that anyone who has ever watched the show should see. I laughed until I cried. God I am so glad it’s the weekend. Tomorrow is going to be swell. The more I listen to Girls Can Tell the more I love it. That’s usually a pretty good sign. […]

It’s a beautiful sunny day. The weather finally warmed up a little. Nonetheless, I am down — our efforts to replicate our combined genetic material have again come to naught. And now I am contemplating taking a two-month hiatus from these efforts, so that we can spare our future offspring the lifetime curse of a […]

The bad news: our pantry was taken over by weevils. Apparently, weevil eggs are just a “normal” part of flour, and one should freeze new bags of flour for two days to kill them. Gross. Needless to say I’ve never done that. I was baking last night and noticed them in the sealed rubbermaid flour […]

Husband had a dozen big red roses delivered to my desk today. And he gave me some chocolate this morning. SWOON. Thank you my darling! I love you Brian. Today is the two-year anniversary of our engagement. Tonight instead of going out for overpriced and mediocre food, we are staying home and I am making […]

Great weekend. The sun was out and I walked around listening to Spoon on ye olde iPod. Brian and I walked to Cole Valley to get cheese and yogurt. I told him the “plot” of the “book” I’m writing. I don’t really plan to tell anyone else about it, for now. Maybe Tamara. Speaking of […]

So, the most egregious of all major entertainment awards shows is tonight: The Grammys. Now, I loves my awards shows. I love the Emmys, the Globes, the Oscars. I love the outfits, the awkward presenters, the speeches, and when someone deserving actually gets recognition. But as they are every year, the Grammys are a mockery […]
