Just received word from my dad that we are signed up for this year’s Bridge Pedal. Apparently he went for the 37 mile 11 bridge route. Last year we did the 24 mile 8 bridge route, and while I do recall saying something like, “that wasn’t so bad! Next year we should do the 11 bridge!” I’m pretty sure I wasn’t thinking straight. I was probably dehydrated or something. The thing is, the 8 bridge route was full of families and old people and other non-threatening, casual bikers. The 11 bridge route was full of spandex-clad serious bikers. I don’t wear spandex! Im nervous!

Arthur learned a new trick! He can jump up and flip the hall light switch on and off. He did it all night last night…

I can’t really blame him. Mastering a light switch is a serious accomplishment for a cat.

antikris: I have yet to see this movie, but I am guessing I will feel the same way.  From what I hear, this movie is the epitome of Julia Allison’s nonsensical dating advice, and that is basically the reason I dislike her.  (hate is such a strong word).  I will watch this movie, and look forward to ripping it to shreds tylercoates: Alright, look. Christina brought home He’s Just Not That Into You and I had every intention on making it all the way through it so I can put together some hilarious zingers, but it was so preposterous (even more so than a movie in which an old man and a fat Asian kid fly to South America in a house attached to balloons) that I only made it fifty minutes in. Here’s my one thought: I want to live in a world where Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Connelly, and Jennifer Aniston are cubicle-mates. (Also, do you think those two resent Ginnifer for the obvious reason?) Sorry, that’s all I can come up with after seeing fifty minutes of a movie that is basically the reason men are simultaneously afraid of and hate women. The end.  I watched this last weekend and the main thing I thought was that Ginnifer Goodwin’s character was completely bat-shit crazy. I have no idea why Justin Long, or anyone else, would want to get involved with that mess. I know she was supposed to be adorably neurotic, but she came off more totally nutso.

lizlemon:robot-heart:Bakerella: Fast Food Fun These are not burgers or fries. They are cupcakes. Oh my god.  Must. make. soon.  Recipe linked. Ew. These remind me of this hamburger cake they’ve been making at Fred Meyers for a million years. It comes with cake fries and this little container of red frosting that’s supposed to look like ketchup. Someone brought one to a church picnic when I was a kid and it turned out to be pretty gross. I’m sure that’s mostly because it was a supermarket cake… but I also think that trying to make a cake look like ground beef is a bad idea.

This picture was taken during the part of the night when I still thought Long Island Iced Teas were a good idea.

Waiting on some big news today. Either going to be very good or very bad.

Seems like the clock is moving in half time.

Anxiety!!!

Don’t worry, the two blue lines will appear in a mere 90 seconds. Wait, that wasn’t your news? Ed: I was trying to break the ice but it came out snarky. Sorry.

Ha. Actually, as I was writing that I thought, Now everyone’s going to think I’m pregnant.

Which I’m not.

As far as I know……

JK! I’m definitely not.

Most likely.

Confession:

I love broccoli.

And I miss it so much :(

I’ve been detoxing since Monday and I’ll be detoxing until the end of the month. I freaking miss broccoli. The first night I wanted a volcano burrito from Taco Bell (not hot at all but sooooo good) really really bad but now I don’t. Now I want my broccoli :(

Only like two more weeks :D

what do you actually eat during this detox if you can’t eat broccoli?  I feel for you, cuz broccoli is the bomb.

It’s the Master cleanse so I drink this lemonade made from fresh lemons, maple syrup and cayenne pepper

You’re doing the Master Cleanse til the end of the month?!? That’s like three weeks! When did you start? Even Beyonce only did it for two weeks.

Ugh, I hate cleanses! They are so unhealthy and crazy. Be safe!
