Rock refers to the place with the ice skaters? What?

30th April 2010 | 1 Comment

Any other 30 Rock fans out there? I wouldn’t watch it for the longest time because I had no idea it was an address, I thought it was a show that had something to do with being in your thirties and I was not ready to accept my impending doom. Anyway, I gave in about [...]


You spin me right round

24th April 2010 | 0 Comments

I sincerely did not mean to abandon you. I had a very strange year. I went from being a person who had been at the same company for seven years to the lady who is sitting on her couch with her MacBook, hoping to keep her temp job after going through a bit of an [...]


Off the sauce

28th September 2009 | 0 Comments

As part of my marathon preparation (eee-gahd, it’s about 1 month away), I’ve temporarily given up alcohol. Wine, more specifically, as I’m not much of a boozer or beer fan. This is hard for me, as I truly love curling up on the couch on a Friday night with a glass of Cabernet. I love [...]


Lula Mae is Feeling Fiesty

Have you ever read that Robert Frost poem about two roads diverging in the woods? Of course you have everyone is forced to read that crap. I hate Robert Frost. I think it started with the poem. In high school I argued that the second stanza totally invalidated the point of the poem.

Then took the [...]


Sunday night blues

13th September 2009 | 0 Comments

…I always get them. Even though I have to work on Friday, I’ve always looked forward to Friday way more than Sunday. There’s a sense of freedom associated with Friday – just gotta get through the day and then …the possibilities are endless! (Even if you just stay home in your pjs and watch bad [...]


2 new purchases

5th September 2009 | 0 Comments

Happy Saturday, everyone.
So, we’ve got a brand new hard drive and my trusty desk top is back and functional once again. Still working on re-installing a bunch of software, so the next few posts may be a bit skimpy on the photos. But, I promise to do my best.
In my last post I referenced a [...]


Where ya been?

2nd September 2009 | 0 Comments

I know, I’ve been absent! But I have good excuses.
1. Computer-less vacation in San Diego! It was lovely, amazing, all sorts of good. Can’t wait to share my adventures with you.
2. Computer-less return to NYC! The hard drive on my desk top at home decided to call it quits. So now my only computer access [...]


Kitchen workout

23rd August 2009 | 0 Comments

Yesterday’s plan was ambitious, but seemingly doable. Grocery store, make cupcakes, go to gym, fill and frost cupcakes, go to housewarming party. Considering this was to all happen within a 2-3 mile radius of my house, it didn’t seem crazy.
I probably had one of my clumsiest days in the kitchen…ever. I’m a decent cook and [...]


Now a Major Motion Picture!

22nd August 2009 | 2 Comments

Ok, here’s another  confession. I’m currently reading “The Time Traveler’s Wife”…and really enjoying it. I know that’s not earth shattering, but I’m always slightly embarrassed to publicly read anything considered “chick lit,” especially if it’s stamped with big old “Now a Major Motion Picture!” starburst. But, it was recommended by a couple friends whose opinions [...]


A walk (or run) in the park

16th August 2009 | 0 Comments

I’m happy to report that I think I really did make a good use of my weekend. A good balance of yummy, high quality whole foods, exercise, necessary housework and quality time with my boyfriend (I’m working on a good blog name for him, as “boyfriend” seems so silly at this point).
As I’ve mentioned, I’m [...]
