You can't judge me, because I judge you!
Look, i'm gonna tell you something. I judge you. Well not YOU specifically (but yeah i do that too) rather you in a very, very general sense. And i don't feel like i'm unique in this personality trait because, really, that's kind of how we're wired. The problem comes in when you act on the snap judgments you make rather than allowing the person ( Read more... ) -
Paging Dr. Google
The internet is amazing. Like for reals. With the touch of a button you can buy a food processor, teach yourself how to cha cha, learn all about the Russian Gulag, or look at pictures of hilarious cakes. We are living in an age of an abundance of information and our access to EVERYTHING is absolutely off the charts. Nowhere is this more ( Read more... ) -
I like this new diet
In the past week (or so, i guess) i've lost about 5 pounds through no effort whatsoever on my part. In fact, i've been eating some not so healthy food, indulging in a glass of wine almost every evening (thanks Christi for inspiring this latest habit), and i've hardly been running at all.

Let this sink in for just a moment.
At first blush it sounds ( Read more... ) -
The Thee-ah-tah!
I don't know what possessed me to type in "Rodgers and Hammerstein" into the "Create a new station" bar on Pandora. I knew what was going to happen. That it was going to fill me with fond remembrances of my time in the theatre and long for them again. Of course the first song that popped was "One Hand, One Heart" from West Side Story and i was ( Read more... ) -
Imma tell you a secret
In high school, or maybe middle school, i can't really remember, we were shown a video about the horrors of eating disorders; poor girls all skin and bones, sunken cheeks, rotting teeth, growing a layer of fur as their betrayed bodies desperately tried to keep them warm. And i remember, as i was watching this video, think that it was having the ( Read more... )
