So the Dalai Lama can take the time to update his twitter, but I’m too busy for my blog.  That’s about right.
* I was able to go back to working out Tuesday night after 10 days off.  Good thing, too… I gained WEIGHT during that break.  Like, weight that will likely take a month […]

For those of you not paying attention elsewhere….
* I stopped blogging. Again.
* I took up geocaching… which really could be a blog entry or 12 all on it’s own. I’ll work on telling you about my new geektastic hobby soon.
* I contracted Lyme Disease. This has nothing to do with #2, as […]

Earlier this week, I was having an issue with words- like, the actual word for something would escape me and I’d have to resort to trying to define the thing.  This caused a certain degree of hilarity when a co-worker was asking me for a recipe and I could not remember the word “grapefruit” and […]

Sooo… I started Chantix again.  Everybody knows that, right?  And everybody might remember that in past experience with this particular drug, I was a little twitchy.  Not necessarily certifiable or even close, just very delicate.  Prone to tears.  A bit impatient.  Me, but more stereotypical girly, I think, is the way I described it to […]

Soooo…. I think I’ve got diet down.  I mean, I’m not perfect, but I’ve gotten to the point that I do have the ability to determine what I should and shouldn’t eat.  What I actually eat, well… sometimes that’s a different story, but I *know* what is and isn’t a good choice.
I’m loving yoga, for […]

So I’ve been trying to do the little meme thing every morning to try to get a reading on how I’m feeling on a given day and where my thoughts are, where I need to be focusing my intentions and such.  Today?  Not working.  I’m apparently all over the place, but I answered honestly which […]

Things on my mind lately….

I am drawn to people who are significantly more intelligent than I am.  I’ve always been this way, really, and I’ve told myself that it’s because I like to have that kind of access to people who can make me better.  After all… in a lot of ways, you become those […]

So… did you get got?
A friend of mine blogged about how he’s hated April 1st ever since his middle-school students rearranged his classroom in the parking lot.  That makes me wish I had a direct line to some of my teacher-friends’ students.  Mouse, for example, would have a lot of fun with that.
Charles and Sabine […]

So, I’ve been a slacker in a lot of regards.
Gulf Wars was a great vacation, and while I was tempted to do a blog recap- I’m not.  Many of the things I want to remember are not ones that need to be retold by the harsh glare of your computer screen… and many of them […]

I’m faced with two choices:  Own up to the truth or phone in a lie.
I am choosing the former- but it’s hard.
Soooo, that quote that I posted for the quote challenge this week:  At first glance, it seemed perfect.  See, I am an adoring fan of Miss Manners.  I know that sometimes I can be […]
