Filed Under (Fitness Confessions) by Admin on 26-11-2009
This is one of those cases of "never shoulda bought it in the first place". What was I thinking??? I am now addicted to these tasty little things!Strawberry and cream cheese Toaster Strudel!! I’ve been passing my eyes right over this box and that cheeky little fellow Pop ‘n’ Fresh for years, and never felt the urge to buy it. But on a whim, I decided to pick them up after thinking how good it

2009My Unthankful Thanksgiving
Filed Under (Equipment Experiments) by Admin on 26-11-2009

I’ll admit I wasn’t feeling the gratitude today. (Which is okay, right? I mean I still have a few hours left to procrastinate my character improvement.) This morning found me walking the track at the gym, my baby in a front carrier and nothing to entertain me except my mp3 player… which was dead. So basically I spent an hour walking in small circles and muttering to myself like a crazy person, nary a Gym Buddy in sight. That last bit was the real problem. See, all the Gym Buddies were absent this morning because they were saving up their childcare hours so they could come to the big Turbo holiday sweatfest tonight. The one I can’t attend because a) my baby is too young to go in the childcare and the gym management frowns on babies in kickboxing classes and b) my body isn’t healed up enough yet to handle it.

These days, thanks to my transformation from walking womb to 24/7 milk bar, I am a girl with a hefty appetite. They say that nursing requires even more calories than pregnancy and I believe it. I’m not counting calories (yay!) but just guessing from the huge amounts of food I consume every few hours I’d say it’s a lot. Like NFL linebacker a lot.

2009Why Have We Become So Violent?
Filed Under (Fitness Confessions) by Admin on 24-11-2009
So, I’m reading yesterday about how one man stabbed this other man on the train over a subway seat, and this is just one amongst the slew of stories detailing one form of human on human violence that we are informed of each week. Is it me, or are these stories becoming far more frequent and also more mind numbingly brutal as time goes on?Stories about people shooting up their old places of

2009The Happiest Sadness: On having a baby after losing one
Filed Under (Equipment Experiments) by Admin on 23-11-2009

Have you ever been afraid that by loving someone so much you will lose them, simply because the universe hates a happy ending? It’s a disturbing, paranoid and not really rational thought but there’s a reason that the axiom, “It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all” exists. Loving someone can be scary. Because losing that someone is even scarier.

The laughter over the Ralph Lauren model debacle hadn’t even died down when it appeared earlier this week that the fashion industry had repeated its affront to anatomical correctness again but this time on the new cover of W magazine featuring Demi Moore.
