Anna Wintour is the editor of Vogue magazine. Meryl Streep's character in The Devil Wears Prada is based on Anna Wintour. I couldn't read The Devil Wears Prada because I kept thinking, "no one is actually like this." I did like the movie because Meryl Streep's character is so over the top. Then I saw …

Today is my 48th birthday. I have decided it is easy to be happy on your birthday when you are happy and not waiting for Jake Ryan to show up in his Porsche to make you happy. I don't need anything, so asking Deren for a gift would be silly. It's not like he can …

Welcome to a sunny early spring Friday morning in Portland, Oregon! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OM7zRfHG0no I got a little KC and the Sunshine Band on the radio this morning on the way into work, which goes perfectly with sunny Friday mornings. I know this is just a teaser and soon Oregon's gray rainy spring will return and kick …
Miss me? See what I did there? Oh, I haven't lost it! Not by a long shot! Speaking of long shots, did you hear the one about the Pope that resigned without warning? The first Pope in 600 years to resign? The Pope who changed the American liturgy and then bailed? That one? Who do …
I'm an enigma. You heard me, an enigma! Most people get into dieting and fitness during the spring and summer months when food is fresher and fruit is abundant, the weather is nice so you can exercise outside. That doesn't happen to me. Summer is a time for eating, drinking and being merry. Then winter …
I am working on a longer post for tomorrow so I'm being lazy for today. I posted this back in January when only people who shared DNA with me were reading this blog. And it is along the same lines of the post last week about how boring I am. So if you enjoy reading …
I simply do not have the attention span for the 30 Days of Truth that many WordPress bloggers use for writing prompts. I'm not as think as you might deep I am. Keeping that in mind, I'm taking the prompts and doing 30 seconds on each, if that. Read it faster if it seems like …
Sparky I have officially returned to Sparkpeople.com. I do highly recommend this website. It has a calorie counter, fitness tracker, tons of tips and tricks and recipes. I think the best thing about using Sparkpeople is the website makes you think of things that you won't always think of on your own. How much water …
I reposted my original Weigh In Wednesday post this morning. Back in January I started my diet, knowing I needed to lose 20-30 pounds. I lost 11. I weighed myself this morning and I've gained back 7 so if I divide the number of pounds by the number of months dieting and factor in daily …
to write anything today. I'm fat. I have a zit right on the tip of my nose surrounded by zits on either side. Don't say you can't see anything. Of course, you can! There is a beacon on the end of my nose! Don't patronize me, you can see them. Ohmahgawd, I'm so fucking hot. …
Someone Less Fat Happened! I broke the 10 pound plateau! I have lost 10.5 lbs. since January 3! What? January 3 of this year, of course! Yes.... 2012. This was me before losing 10.5 pounds: I attribute my weight loss success to a few things. Doing two sets of these strength training exercises twice …
or at least manslaughter. Sorry Man Readers, you can feel free to skip this one if you want. When I was 22, I lived in Boston. My Mom came to visit and we drove up to Rouses Point, New York (her hometown) for my grandmother's birthday. Rouses Point is on Lake Champlain, sandwiched between Vermont …
