the weekend thus far

I’m in one of those “never drinking again” moods. It’s been a heck of a weekend, let’s start from the top: Friday night I went to Bret’s show with my friend Sarah, I got some fun shots of the band doing their thing: Lead singer Seth and Bret (boyfriend) on the drums Seth, bassist Robbie [...]

splenda vs coffee, round 1

For a while I was toying with the idea of lactose intolerance as I get very intense and inexplicable pains in my stomach occasionally. I tried to think of what I had ate recently during these episodes and milk/dairy seemed to be the common denominator although that’s not surprising considering I have dairy several times [...]

Back to school, back to school, to show my father I am not a fool

Nice quote from Billy Madison to kick off the post! Despite the fact that I have pretty much been in school all summer long I can just FEEL the back to school fall vibe in the air! It makes me want to buy notebook! But I have plenty, so I’ll refrain. This morning I treated [...]

shopping addict

Whoever suggested Kashi go lean crunch during the office eats thread is a genius. I picked up a box this weekend and have been munching on it all day! It’s really good without milk and the crunch pieces are the perfect size for desk snacking! I also picked up a bag of trail mix with [...]

awesome vid

Hey guys, I found this amazing video I wanted to share with you. Lot’s of people think that modeling is just about sitting there “looking pretty” but there’s a lot more involved. It is often described as a dance between photographer and model and I think this video shows that perfectly! Let me know what [...]

Organic Schmorganic

According to my Chem professor and book, if the entire world jumped on the organic bandwagon, one in three people would die of starvation, and that is assuming food is distributed equally (which it of course would not be). The earth simply cannot produce enough food to sustain the entire globe without chemical pesticides and [...]

Poor veggie loaf, never even saw it coming!

At 7:01pm I am happy to report my stomach is no longer screaming at me! I raced right home and heated up my favorite Amy’s meal, the veggie loaf! There was no time for a picture, but if you scroll down you can see the box in my grocery list. Today’s run: We were feeling [...]

WHAT was I thinking!

It’s about 4:30 and I am posting this from work, which I get off of at 6:30. I got the most intense hunger pains about a half hour ago at 4:00, and I have nothing at my desk or anything! I was baffled by this sudden onset of hunger because I usually get off at [...]
