What's to eat?
Thursday 08-07-2008 8:58am PT
So I have been eating non stop now that I am working out again. The good part is that I am now eating bigger breakfast meals and smaller dinners which is how it should be. Normally I don't even focus on how much or what I eat but now that I'm into it............I've noticed something else. I think Jack has an eating "situation". I don't want to say "disorder" because it might set him back. I never see Jack eat and he seems to be losing weight. . I'm going to continue taunting him and hope that he develops yet another "issue".
It just doesn't make sense
Tuesday 08-05-2008 7:28am PT
I'm almost afraid to mention this because I don't want to jinx it..........but.....I've been on a roll when it comes to working out. I am back at the gym for two reasons. First I would clearly like to firm up a few areas and second.....I just needed more energy. I know that part just doesn't make sense but it's true. The more you work out...the more energy you get for the rest of the day. The hardest part is to take the first step and that is challenging when you just don't have the energy to get to the gym. That's when the workout needs to start in you head. You've got to psyche yourself up for the first big week. I should know....I've been mentally preparing for my comeback for a year and a half!
Take your shoes off
Monday 08-04-2008 6:54am PT
This weekend we went up to Los Angeles for a friends birthday party. When we arrived at the couple's new home I saw many, many shoes at the front door. I'm not a huge fan of taking the shoes off but I figured that since it's a new home and they do have a two year old hanging out on the floor most of the time....I should follow the crowd on this one. We took our shoes off and went in .....only to find that the only folks who were shoeless were the Korean guests. It was more of a cultural thing and not for hygiene purposes. Once I saw footwear on the remaining guests I went back outside ...put my shoes on and comfortably enjoyed the rest of the day. Lesson learned....never go out with a sloppy pedicure....you may be exposed when you least expect it.
BRINGING THE BLOCK DOWN
Thursday 07-31-2008 6:05am PT
IT'S OFFICIAL.....I've become the neighbor that everyone is whispering about. We are putting a pool and patio area in our backyard as well as a brand new landscape job. This project requires lots of big trucks, machinery and mess. It is a big inconvenience for the neighborhood and I must apologize. Most people are pretty cool but....................there is one that is older and very set in his ways. He has had to move his car to a different spot which has caused much irregularity to his world. This weekend...I think I will be dropping off a few wine and cheese baskets on doorsteps to buy myself a few more days with the neighbors. Then I must come up with a long term plan since the disturbance will probably last three to five months. The added bonus for my fellow street dwellers is the gorgeous port-a-potty that is set up in front of my home. What a perfect lawn ornament!!
BACK TO SCHOOL
Tuesday 07-29-2008 8:16am PT
I can't believe that Friday will be the first of August. I went to Target yesterday and saw the patio furniture in the seasonal section of the store had been replaced by backpacks and school supplies. I'm not ready to think about that stuff yet. The closest I've come to preparing for back to school is buying my daughter the same light blue velour jacket that Jack wears every day. Although Jack's arms are as thin as my daughter's....I think the sleeves are shorter for her and it has a drawstring waist. Today Jack seems very intense. He is engrossed in something on the computer (probably porn). Tony and Kris appear rather sedate this morning which ....to me....says: HANGOVER.... or like Jack.....they are looking at porn as well.
My new ADDICTION
Monday 07-28-2008 6:28am PT
I have a new addiction and it's called "craigslist". I have never been an online buyer and rarely had I ever checked out the list before......until......two weeks ago. I made a large purchase and got an amazing deal...in fact...the deal was so good that I felt like a big winner in Vegas. My purchase saved me about $10,000.00. Somebody else made a mistake when they bought and it was my total gain. I am now on craigslist a few times a day looking for three different products that I need. I'm finding so many treats in the process. My husband said he is getting set for an intervention. I'm not ready for retail rehab just yet. Craigslist Rules!!!!!!!

Jack thinks that I hate him today and although hate is a very strong word.....he is correct. The only reason I'm giving him the time of day is because he is wearing my favorite light blue velour jacket. The fabric seems to soften his bitterness somehow. Kris is getting on my nerves a little as well. He and Jack are slowly becoming the same person. Tony is in neutral territory today. That is all.
Car trouble
Friday 07-18-2008 8:32am PT
I had a very shaky ride to work this morning. My dashboard lit up like I had won the slots in Vegas. The temperature line in my car read HOT for most of the ride and quite honestly.....this disturbed me. When I arrived at work.....of course Tony and Kris knew nothing of the situation and were quite bored with my tale of woe. I acted quickly and made contact with the official Clear Channel auto expert......KGB's Chris Boyer. What a talented, helpful individual. Unlike Tony and Kris he immediately wanted to know what the problem was. He was loaded with helpful information that has officially changed the way I will look at him in the hallway. He's so much more than that tall, Hawaiin shirt wearing co-worker who often times is seen waltzing the halls accessorized with a marital aid sticking out of his head. He's sharp, interesting and clearly passionate about what he does.
P.S. Today was my nice day with Jack and he helped me put the water in my radiator.
I don't care for Jack today..........

I need to set the record straight. First, I think Jack is a wonderful guy. I don't know why he feels otherwise. I think my new plan with him will be to kill him with kindness on Monday, Wednesday and Friday ....while being mean with malicious verbal attacks on Tues.,Thurs.. It will keep him guessing for a while. I'll be able to tell more about Kris and his "social status" tomorrow night when we go out for some drinks and a show. I'll try to figure out how to take pictures on my cel phone .....so I can post them on the web on Monday. Well.....I won't post them because I don't know how. Maybe Jack will do it. He probably will since that's one of the days I plan on being nice to him.
