Hmmm, I have some secrets that I’ll take to the grave, but I imagine that I’d give one up if it were a life or death situation. Mine or someone else’s. At that point, all bets are off, no?
This is a very interesting question for me as I’m struggling to release the clutter in my life. I have piles of paper that I consider “reference” for my work, but there never seems to be enough time to get to them. As I go through my stuff and purge the things I don’t need, [...]
Obesity is bad. Very bad. And so is the way mainstream USAmerica is approaching it. Listen up all you well meaning experts, doctors, dieticians, researchers, journalists, parents, foodies, and health nuts (yes, I’m talking to ALL OF YOU): It’s not about the food. Yes, some people are eating too many high-calorie, low nutrient foods that [...]
As much as I ENJOY solitude, I cannot live without my friends. I was reminded that on Easter after visiting a couple of friends. I felt SO good after we left that I barely registered that 10-block trek home.
I try to avoid focusing on what I don’t want or don’t want to do, because I believe it can give more energy to the very thing I’m trying to avoid. But I do think a “to-don’t” list can help you clarify your “to-do”. What do you think? Read the article over at No More [...]
I would rather have more work that I actually enjoy doing. I enjoy work that has meaning for me beyond a paycheck, work that is so challenging and dynamic that I don’t even want to go home.
Self-efficacy, the belief in one’s own ability to handle whatever life throws at you. And self-efficacy is not simply about being optimistic, but really understanding that you have all the tools necessary to meet any challenge, and also the courage to ask for help if you need, but in the way you need it. Wait, [...]
I wrote this back when the weather was all funky and gloomy. I needed a little pick-me-up and recalled how spring vegetables get no love. Here’s my ode to spring. The Forgotten Spring: 8 Spring Edibles to Shake Off the Winter Doldrums.
I can’t be certain that I wouldn’t waste a lot of time feeling sorry for myself instead of using all the time I had left to accomplish as much as I could before I died. So, no, I would not want to be told.
I was having dinner with an old friend the other day and damn near fell off the stool as she shared her recent dating experience with me. Her date, an early thirtysomething who neglected to mention he was married*, disclosed that he didn’t read (a few pages in and he’s bored or tired; what’s a [...]
We would be friends for life! My Aries-Only Child Syndrome (Ar-OCS) won’t allow me to speak ill of myself. And yes, I did just make Ar-OCS up.
Yes. Silence can be perceived as complicity. You can be dishonest by omission.
Living is waking up everyday knowing that your live has purpose and meaning because you make it so. Living is manifesting dreams into reality, actualizing your full potential. Existing is waking up everyday only because your metabolic processes need you to eat or drink something to keep going. Existing is going through the motions, letting [...]

Do I have a phobia? I don’t know that there’s anything out there that has the power to paralyze me with fear. I will have to think on this one some more and update it later.
A back rub (including a butt massage!), Chocolove’s almond and salted dark chocolate bar, a hug, hanging out with 4-year olds, falling asleep on Dragon’s chest, a day at the beach, French kissing…
I eat it. I spend a large part of my budget on groceries and dining out. Maybe 40% of my food budget is spent on eating out at good food restaurants. I love to cook, but it’s so easy to have someone do it for you in NYC.
That pretty much sums up the article. I definitely experience a more improved libido when I exercise regularly as compared to periods of inactivity. What about you? What’s your take? Read the article here: Phys Ed: The Truth About Sex and Exercise.
I’m finding it more difficult to think about what I would give up. We all have our price, but a million just isn’t enough to give up eating good food, a limb, a love, a friend…
Love is a weakness when it’s confused for sex and codependency. It is a mistake to believe that sexual desire equals an unconditional commitment to the care and well-being of another’s whole self (love). When you’re in a relationship and you can’t function emotionally, mentally, socially, and financially without the other person, both of you [...]
