I ran 8 miles on Saturday and 4 on Sunday. R and I signed up for the half-marathon which is in 20 days. The 8 miles made my legs very sore, so I am dreading the 10 mile run that I’ll have to do this weekend. I’m sure that it’ll be fine and I bet [...]
I am in the process of doing a root touch-up on my hair. The problem: I forgot to put the gloves on. I realized the glove problem halfway through, when I noticed that the fingernails on my right hand were encrusted with dark brown hairdye. It’s lovely.
It’s a rainy day and since yesterday morning [...]
I have no complaints about my coffee meeting last night. I am no fun! We met, we spoke for over an hour and I went home. He’s worked at his paper for over 20 years, but only at the current assignment for 2.
I was telling my mom about the meeting last night.
Me: He says that [...]
My cold is not better and I am worried that my coffee-guy tonight will think that I have a bit of Adelaide’s Lament going on. “In other words, just from waiting around for that plain little band of gold/A person can develop a cold.” Go watch the Youtube, Faith Prince is wondahful.
My co-workers are trying [...]
This afternoon I got an e-mail (at my work e-mail address) from someone I worked with around four years ago. I dealt with her only briefly, so I was surprised to to hear from her. It basically said, “I currently work at [BIG AGENCY] and I was thinking of you because we have an analyst [...]
I posted a newer, kinder picture of myself on mat dot com and got e-mails from three new people. You would think that my profile had ripped lyrics off that R0d S. song (it didn’t):
If you want my b0dy AND ya think I’m sex-ay… [this is a great song to sing flat and nasal]
Why do these [...]
When I couldn’t get the book I wanted yesterday, I bought the new book from the Tess Monaghan mystery series instead. Sadly, I have finished the mystery, which I enjoyed a lot. In addition to having great characters and a fun/gory plot, this book features one of the best author photos I have ever seen. [...]
I was just in BN looking for Richard Price’s new book, Lush Life. I looked for the book, and couldn’t find it and so went to the info desk to inquire. As I had feared, the book was not in stock. The info women said, “There were three of them when we opened, [...]
On Wednesday I signed up for the NY Metro Danskin women’s triathlon. By Thursday, registration was closed. My primary project this summer will be training for the NY marathon (again), but I figured that I would throw a few 10-15 mile bike rides and a weekly swim at the public pool in Jul and Aug [...]
I HATE the c-word. I hate that many gay men I know use it all the time. I have a FEMALE co-worker who uses the c-word all the time to refer to women who annoy her. I find this troubling, to say the least…so I was thinking of having a little chat with her about [...]
