A Retrospective

08.11.2009
After fat camp before senior year.

I ran home for lunch and was on my blissful way back from work when I saw a hand-written invitation on the top of the mail stack. Opened it up to realize (to my horror) that it was an invitation to my 10-year high school reunion. <insert gasp here> For more “mature” folks, I don’t want …

Oy. “More to Love”

07.29.2009
"More to Love" (Patrick Wymore/FOX)

Ok, just watched “More to Love”. *face palm* First: Why the hell do you have to put the women’s height and weight on the tv? WTH??????? Does their height and weight REALLY matter? This is probably the most infuriating thing for me… Second: These ladies are GORGEOUS. Why must the weight be the primary focus? 5’10 and 190? …
