When I met Jenny The Bloggess at BlogHer in San Diego a few weeks ago, I was a little giddy. I usually don’t go GaGa over celebrities and famous people, just so you know, but I admire Jenny’s writing and creativity, along with her bravery, and uncanny ability to effectively use dead animals and monkey [...]
I was wandering around Dudley’s used bookstore in Bend, Oregon the other day when this ”Are you Psychic?” book caught my third eye. It’s by Pete A. Sanders, Jr. and it’s all about the Free Soul Method of expanding your psychic abilities. He is an MIT trained scientist, according to the cover, so he knows [...]
I found this lovely retro album at a garage sale in Oakland, in the free pile! Of course I grabbed it. We don’t have a record player, but it’s the picture I like. Now I just need to get an orange dress, big gold hoop earrings, and some sort of major push-up strapless bra. Then [...]
I drove to California yesterday, which takes me about 8 hours. I love a good road trip, I enjoy driving alone with my thoughts and Ryan Seacrest’s radio show blaring pop tunes when I’m in range, but John Tesh wears me out a little. All my road trips start with a new roll of tape, [...]
Sure, the pink Oh! shoes are cute and comfortable, but has athletic shoe technology really married Italian fashion design, as they claim? I decided to put them to the test, with a little help from my running partner’s baby. I say yes. Yes, yes, yes, I can run in pink high heels! Official business: This post is [...]
I had to go to Costco last week. We were out of toilet paper. For real. We were down to the six pack of State Farm branded mini tissues I snagged from my Eugene Half Marathon goodie bag, and put in the bathroom for emergencies (okay, seriously, they are good neighbors!) I couldn’t wait another day. [...]
The FedEx man knocked on my door while I was in the bathtub. The dogs went nuts. I didn’t know who it was, but I hadn’t heard from my mom in several days, so I had a hunch it might be her, stopping by, like she does sometimes. I grabbed a towel, and went to [...]
I forgot to share the flat tire video! And yes, this is about a real flat tire on a real car, not a code phrase for a hot new liposuction procedure targeted at middle aged moms who are sick of running and eating vegetables instead of sleeping and eating cupcakes all day. Not that I know [...]
I originally posted this a year ago, on December 5, 2009, but when I saw the amazing Mizfitonline’s post about her daughter playing hopscotch and the health benefits of hopping today, I remembered that I actually started this International Society of Hopscotch. Perhaps it’s time to hop to it again? In my ongoing quest for fun fitness [...]
Google offered to buy Groupon for $6B today, and Groupon said no. I think Google should buy me, since they obviously have some extra cash now. Here are the top five reasons Google should buy me: I can get my group on. I’m good at starting groups. I started Chubby Mommy Running Club in Eugene [...]
