This time it's for you, SOMMS darling. Even though you'd probably enjoy it far more than intended.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

I need a hug! Thank you, SOMMS.

My current theory is: He needs to belittle me to enforce the rather substantiated places of us in our family: He, the pretty much awesome, organized and good person with a job, a girlfriend, pretty much picture perfect, and I, the little family f**k-up. Perhaps as I am growing up and not f**king up as much, he feels threatened? I don't know.

Deet: Shira, I Love You!

He's jealous.

And big hugs to you, Shira.

Or, maybe he recognizes how well you've done and just wants to make sure you achieve your goal, but just didn't say it the right way. Men are idiots, most of the time.

Maybe. He's never been known to think before he speaks. Sort of like me.

Thanks for letting me bitch, guys. I love you both!

You have, and are, doing an amazing job of taking charge of your life, Shira. In all aspects. I'm very, very proud of you.

Sadly, when it comes to food and weight, for almost all of us, there isn't a day when "Drop the cookie" isn't an apprpriate command.

Right now, I am a fatty!

Happy Humping Day!

*** Bring Him To Me ***

There will be consequences for not showing our Shira the proper support for her efforts. Dude does not understand that this is a lifestyle change for ... life. In some ways, it is better to lose the weight slowly, and you look great.

Bring him to me...hopefully he is also allergic to cats, and I can make his life a living hell.

Shira, not only is he a guy, but he's also a big brother, which makes him extraordinarily capable of making you feel like crap, intentionally or not.

You know how well you're doing and how far you've come. Focus on that.



And where's the coffee?

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

Shira, here's my proposal:

I'll send my sister to stay with him. While they eat each other alive, we'll skip off and have low-fat cupcakes, followed by shoe-shopping and the show of your choice.

Of course, darling D2 - that way I'll have someone to split the bill with

That's going to be some bill. When it comes to shoes, I'm a male Shira.

Tales from the school:

Today is an "all-school field trip" day. Each class is off to various museums, historical sites, etc. The admin team (including yours truly) stayed behind so we could meet with the principal and plan some upcoming events. The principal called in to say that she thinks her dog ate her glasses. No, I didn't make that up. She's going to the eye doctor to get new glasses, then taking the dog to the vet. I have no idea how something like this would have happened, but it's the most unique twist to the "my dog ate my homework" excuse I've ever heard.

Oh, and the meeting has been cancelled. I could have gone to Mt. Vernon after all.

Or a day trip to NYC, Moony! You know, checking out co-ops. For the kid.

Mt. Vernon is such a peaceful place. I could use a field trip today, I am reviewing the most boring documents!
