Reminder!
Just a friendly little reminder of something I was myself reminded of this weekend …. Beer does not give you a hangover! (it does, of course, make you feel really full - and ultimately probably makes you fat, but it doesn’t give you a hangover … so you take the good with the bad, I guess) Of course adding an Irish Car Bomb and then two vodka-tonics at the end of the night might...

SALAD
Ugh - everytime I eat here I come back to the office and smell like a salad.  What’s up with that?  Also, it is the most disorganized, too-small-for-the-crowds, crapshow of a lunch place I’ve ever been.  Yet I keep going back … whhyyyyy???

Working my brain ..
I just finished a new book … Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee. It was a departure from my normal mind-candy-murder-mystery-thriller-commuter books that I’ve been into for the past few months and I highly recommend it.  I actually had to hang back in the subway to read the last 20 pages this AM (nothing like standing down in the subway while reading - talk about ambiance!!).   Plot is hard to...

I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart. FOR EXAMPLE: One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says, ‘I don’t feel like...
