“Note to Mothers: Play safe with your young ones – make sure they get sugar every day.” Egads… P.S. I want to watusi too!! The next time you’re tempted to mindlessly eat handfuls of chocolate chips or order the extra large soda with dinner or drink syrup straight from the bottle (which… I can’t really …
Forget night swimming REM, night running has always been my favorite nocturnal sport. There’s just something about running through an unlit night, the inky blackness completely obliterating my body until I feel incorporeal. Dispossessed. Airborne. In the sense of flying, yes, but also that I feel born of air. I’m elegant in ways that I …

Truth: I will watch ANY show with dancing in it. I don’t care how spurious the plot, how pedantic the dialog, how vacuous the characters. I love watching people dance.

This can’t be real, right? I mean, wouldn’t a rotary phone need to be connected to a wire?? P.S. I totally remember using rotary phones when I was kid. I’m that old. I also had a pager in college. I’m that cool. Mexico overtook the US as the fattest nation on the planet. Scientists finally …
Just a quick note to let you know I’m off on a summer trip with my kiddos this week! I’ll be back to blogging (and answering e-mail in complete sentences, i.e. not on my phone) next Monday, August 12! But here’s a preview of things to come: That’s right, baby! Me and Shaun T! (Yes, …
Feeling cranky today because now that Ye Olde Royal Birth has happened there’s nothing to look forward to for the rest of the summer until all the sandals go on 75% off clearance? Well if you’re feeling in the fighting mood, nothing starts an argument faster in health and fitness circles these days then asking …

I’m concerned about your health!” Despite what shows like The Biggest Loser and shrieking harpies like Meme Roth contend, shaming people – no matter how politely or well-intended you …
Yep. This would save me a lot of time in the mornings. I had an embarrassing moment in the furniture store. This, surprisingly, was a new venue for me.
