Cinched Waist

If I were ever asked to offer one piece of advice, one thing that could change the world, my contribution would be this: Turn off the television. Now, because I’m a wordy woman that nugget would be closely followed by, “stop supporting the fast food industry,” and “if a t-shirt costs less than twenty dollars…

Endless Cycle

I stopped to get gas last week and unbeknownst be me, my life was about to be enhanced. “You are now watching Gas Station TV,” the gas pump said as a small TV came to life. Let me repeat. I was pumping gas, and there was a TV on the gas pump. Lest I have a…

Puffy Jacket

Oh, how I once longed to smoke. Truly. When I was in college I tried sober in a coffee shop; I tried drunk in Mexico, I put some serious effort into picking up the habit. There was something alluring about the intense inhale followed by that seductive plume curling from someone’s mouth. Smokers had an…

Cycle

Michael and I went for breakfast super early yesterday because we dropped our son off at the airport. We were sitting outside with the birds when he said, “Closest descendant of the dinosaur.” “Excuse me?” “Birds, they’re the closest animals to the dinosaurs.” I sipped my tea, thought about that for a minute, listen to the…

Ring It Out

I watch Downton Abbey. When I’m in between seasons, it’s like being apart from my super hot British boyfriend who has to return to study at Oxford.  I miss it, I long to return to our time together and nothing else fills the void. I’m not a huge television watcher.  In fact, I rarely watch…

Sweater Stone

Remember Dana Carvey’s Church Lady? For those of you that are young, Dana Carvey is a comedian.  He was on Saturday Night Live when it was still a very funny show.  His character was a stereotypical…well, church lady.  She was convinced everything was satanic.  It’s hard to explain, so if you have never heard of…

Stark Colors

Walmart is finally struggling, but Robb Stark is dead.  If that’s not the yin and yang of life, I don’t know what is. My weekend started off with a great article explaining why Walmart is in trouble.  They are having staffing issues and losses in profit and people are not shopping their stores like they…

Utility Shirt

I watch Dexter. I’m just starting Season 3 and I love it.  I don’t watch it on TV because I hate TV, remember? I buy the seasons and then try to cut myself off so I don’t sit and watch the whole damn thing straight through. Dexter must be the reason I haven’t finished writing my…
