A singer/performer in my youth, I was a voice major at Indiana University, but became a lawyer when I moved to Arizona after I graduated...[Read More]
I’ve seen this quote before and came across it again: “Someday there will be a story you want to tell for no better reason than because it matters to you more than any other…You’ll stop looking over your shoulder to make sure you are keeping everyone happy, and you’ll simply write what’s real and true…That’s [...]
I just caught my son shaving his legs?
Well, he’s seen me do it, and he’s really into imitating us lately. Which is great, it means he wants to learn new things, but unless he’s planning to become a competitive swimmer any time soon, I don’t think he needs to be borrowing my Venus Divine. Just [...]
At the moment I’m by myself, a very strange state to be in on a Friday night. I just went shopping, something I rarely do because I loathe it so. But Conrad went to the football game, Max is with his hab worker, and I looked at the movies but there wasn’t really anything I [...]
We’re on our way over to the in-laws’. Happy Thanksgiving to all and to all a good turkey day.
Want to comment on The Biggest Loser.
Amy is SO CUTE. I love her. I’m so sorry to see her go but she is gorgeous and adorable and yay for someone who doesn’t like football! A girl after [...]
Well, I didn’t plan to talk about the Patti LuPone book on here, but I’ve had a lot of questions.
It’s a memoir of an experience I went through. It is MY memoir.
It’s a story of admiration, and why that admiration came about, and what it led to in my life.
It’s not about Patti LuPone, it [...]
A favorite line of mine from Sophie’s Choice that I sometimes quote is: ”When you live a good life - like a saint - and then you die . . . THIS must be what they make you to drink in paradise!”
I do believe that Sprinkles red velvet cupcakes have got to be on the menu [...]
I had a doctor’s appointment this morning and I got to work an hour and a half late. I had permission, but it completely destroyed my whole day! I LOVE to get to work early and usually arrive a good 45 minutes before the day starts. I can get organized, get my head on straight, [...]
The Biggest Loser episode I watched yesterday is still swirling around in my head, so I ran three miles this morning, for the first time in forever. Yup, the old mare’s still got it!
The thing is, I’d started the holiday festivities a bit early as far as the old diet goes, and I am gifted [...]
There is nothing to motivate me to work out, clean the house, do things I don’t want to do, that works better than turning on an episode of The Biggest Loser.
“Dear Jillian Michaels,
I worship you. You have my permission to kick my ass one thousand times, and at the end of my ass-kicking, I will [...]
I was at the park with Max and this guy comes up. He has a son about Max’s age and he’s holding a baby.
They’re there ten minutes and he says to the kid, “Your sister’s got boogers. I’m going to the house, I’ll be right back.”
And off he goes. Leaving ME with HIS kid. Who [...]
