Tonight, Des and I sat on her bed and sifted through boxes of college photos, squealing with delight as we traded pile after pile. Our giddy chatter went something like this:
“Remember this guy?”
“Ew, gross!”
“Oh my God, what were we wearing?”
“We were so cute!”
“We were so cute!”
“We were so cute!”
“We were so … SKINNY!”
She let me [...]

When my sister called me at work today to see if I wanted to go to the gym, I said with mild enthusiasm, “OK.” I figured I really needed finish the last couple chapters of Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and those straight-backed exercise bikes make for rather comfy reading stations. The loftier goal, of [...]

A Korean lady scrubbed my nipples!
This weekend was much too eventful for me to describe in detail, so I will leave you with that. More to come once I get over the trauma of being trapped in a room full of middle-aged vee-jay-jays (EEK! MY EYES!)
Happy Labor Day!

And just because I haven’t been vain enough lately, I urge y’all to pick up the latest issue of Audrey magazine. Yes, yours truly is the smokin’ model on page — Ha! You really think I memorized the page number? — *cough*twenty-five*cough.* I’m not a huge fan of the outfit (that sheer potato sack [...]

I did kickboxing on Saturday, boot camp on Sunday and yoga last night. Now I hurt. Everywhere. But until I am no longer confined to empire-waist dresses, I must continue to drag myself to this torturous place they call the gym. I’m getting ready to go to kickboxing again. They say that to combat soreness, [...]

Chipped nail polish
A trio of mini, un-concealed zits
The sprouting of stray eyebrows
Hair that thirsts for shampoo
This is what happens

I just heard screams coming from downstairls. Sigh. I guess Apolo just won Dancing With The Stars. My life at home runs on a carefully-caculated TiVo schedule. (By the way, did you vote for Jordin? Did you? Did you? Did you?!?!) I look at my parents with their Dream Dinners and TV trays, testing out [...]

This was the ultimate weekend of R&R. On Saturday, I went to Glen Ivy Hot Springs Spa with Desiree and her friends. We each paid 50 bucks to slather ourselves in mud and sit in “mineral” water that smelled like rotten eggs. Girls are such suckers. But afterwards, our skin did feel super soft and [...]

Alice and I took a cardio lift class tonight at the 24 Hour in Hermosa (aka Former-Sorority Girl Central). I feel so much better. Tired and unable to feel my inner thighs, but better. Happy. I guess I just needed a quick shot of endorphins.
Alice bought me a pair of little red weights. She whipped [...]
