Girl friends. Better yet, girl friends and conversations over handfuls of Indian food. Brief conversation with best friend half the world away. The moment when Brandon falls asleep. That little shift in his breathing. Quiet night. Thick terry robe. Full belly. Money being raised for a cause. Talking to people about their shares in changing the world. New Weevils. Yep. That’d cap my Thursday....

(And another “song title for blog title” tribute to Mazing Amy…hehee.) Oh yes. My blog entry will be short and sweet because I have my date with Red Kimmy, my piano. First. I just realized last night that I have been with my company for 2 years now. Wow. Second. If you’re looking to buy some sweets and bank some karma, buy your stuff from Leslie’s Life is Sweet: Confections for Change. Part of their proceeds go to support Heifer International, The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center, and also several AIDS/Orphans projects and medical support in...

My ankle suffers a set back. So I’m not running for yet another week. It seems that two little hops off the high bar stool on Saturday applied too much impact for me.

Lots and lots and lots of food served. I can’t even begin to discuss the yummy brats, wings, dips, and much much more. And my favorite commercial of the evening? CareerBuilder.com. I’m going to make me one of the ring binder helmet at work! Here are the highlights of the conversations going on during the game that I managed to remember… Prince of...

Just got back from my optometrist. I am wearing my new astigmatism-corrected contact lenses. EVERYTHING looks bigger than before. I mean, my computer screen looks like font size 14 instead of 12. Well, fuck. The monitor itself even looks bigger than last night! The Vitamin Water bottles in the store, the same size as what I have at home, look huge. My judgment on dimension is a little off right now so I keep banging into things…which makes me feel like the things ARE bigger. Even myself looks bigger. Thicker, I should say. Good lord. I get to walk around...
