Zumba!

I've just been invited to go to a Zumba class when I'm in New York in a few weeks. Should I?

Lunchtime My Time

Sometimes when I bring my lunch to work, I don't wanna wait 'til lunchtime. Food's there. It's ready. So am I, shoot.

Fending Off the Cat

It's not that I'm totally proud of this, but I had to put a Restraining Order on my cat. He can't get within 100 feet of me now. . . or else.

All things considered, it's fair.

No Pants Policy Out of Control

Last summer, I came up with a No Pants Policy at work (not that risque; people just had to wear shorts but it sounded cool).

So my brother, who lives NOT in a warm climate, took a picture of himself tyring it in his home state.

Very funny man. And freezing his tail off, but still. Here's his blog.

Ziploc

I'm liking Ziplocs more and more.

Citrus Makes Hearts Fond?

I just read that a citrus scent makes a middle-aged woman appear to be six years younger than she is to a man.

Isn't it more like FIVE years?

Planet Dork??

I love this commercial. What's your favorite line?

You

I just saw your picture and it made me think of you. Not for long, just for a moment, but still.

Showers

So let's just say if you're wondering out loud if you should take a shower or not, take it.

And if it's been awhile, shower with soap. Your choice of fragrance. Just shower, k? (And while you lather, bask in the joy that you're not at a campout anymore.)

Fast Lane

Few things in life are better than "Life in the Fast Lane" by the Eagles magically popping up on your radio, cranking it louder AND actually BEING in the fast lane, freeway-speaking, of course.

Favorite TV

It's kinda sad when you're on the road and discover your favorite channel on TV is The Weather Channel.

But the maps in motion. Wow.

Dodging the Box

As a skinny 8th grader, I feared for my life in gym class when we started boxing exercises. I dodged being called into the ring until the day I heard Coach yell my name to come box some gorilla of a boy/man/thing.

Without thinking, I froze and yelped, "I'm a LOVER not a fighter!" (Why, I'll never know.)

Everyone in the gym went instantly quiet...until Coach started chuckling and skipped over me to the next name on the list.

Humor--it can Save Your Life.

Eat More

Why is it that when you eat, you want to eat more?

This morning a friend gave me a donut. I didn't want to eat, but I took a bite. Then another. THEN another. Then ANOTHER. Then it was gone. Dang.

Why?

John Mayer

How could you NOT like anything John Mayer? Or Counting Crows (and NO, they don't sound like yelling). Or James Taylor. Not so sure about Michael Buble, cuz SOME stuff is great, but I fear he's gonna sound alike in all his songs, kinda like Josh Groban, and I KNOW Josh is great, but . . .

John Denver kinda had that problem. While likable, he had a lot of his songs sounded alike. But, hey, not James Taylor. And Jack Johnson kinda does but he can get away with it. Why is that? Is it the island that sucks us in? And what about Del Paxton? Yay? Nay? (Name that movie.)
