Sex and the City, Part Two
Before I saw Sex in the City II, I imagined writing a long, insightful post about it. Instead, I came out of the movie not feeling much of anything. Then I forgot about it.But I made a commitment, so here's as much energy as I feel it deserves. This movie took a stab...
Happy with My Hair
My hair is gone (see my new profile picture) and I feel so much better now. I'm going to be 44 in one month and I just didn't want to carry around a college ponytail anymore. The hair past my shoulders didn't reflect who I think I am anymore and I was out of ideas as...
Blackhawks Win the Stanley Cup
Now that I'm married to a hockey fan, I care.BLACKHAWKS!
Happy with My Hair
I love my hair now! Yay, short hair!
Tired of My Hair, Part II
This is how I've started wearing my hair to work, just to get it out of my face. Boring.
Tired of My Hair, Part I
This is how my hair typically looks if I do nothing to it but comb it. Ugh.

You Can’t Tell Me Death Will Be Worse
I find life uncomfortable enough without taking risks to experience more of it.
Healthy Whine
Since the last time I posted, my doctor told me to cut out even the few fruits I was allowed to eat. I spent three weeks eating nothing but vegetables, meat, eggs, nuts and beans. At least I could still have oils and spices and herbs. She's now allowed me to have one...
Easter
My Easter memories are of wanting this holiday to be as big and bright as Christmas, but it never was. Maybe part of the reason Easter has never been as big as Christmas is that Easter coincides with the spring solstice and Christmas coincides with the winter solstice...
“I Recently Cut Out Fructose”
Disclaimer: since I've become properly obese, I re-read these old posts and see my body dysmorphia and obsession with food and weight. It's sad to me now. Do I have that Seinfeld quote right? I'm remembering Kramer telling someone how he stays fit and eats right....
