Florence + the Machine. Jose Gonzalez. Sia. Josh Ritter. The Shins. Bright Eyes. Modest Mouse. Depeche Mode. Bob Dylan. I'm pretty random.

Oh God, you're living my nightmare. My beloved treadmill has fallen quite ill as of late and I haven't the funds to fix it. I've been trying to avoid using it and just replace it with other forms of cardio but nothing yields the burns I got on the treddy. I'm so sad. :'(

EVERY line is my favorite line in "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. Absolutely amazing. I've heard there was a secret chord That David played, and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music, do you?It goes like this The fourth, the fifth The minor fall, the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah…

”I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind You could have done better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don't think twice, it's all right” - Bob Dylan

Vicks vaporub The smell of the furnace kicking in for the first time in the fall Hot concrete in fresh rain Approaching storm Autumn: dead leaves/burning wood Sweaty man pits lol Baby hair Flea collars + kitty fur Freshly cut pine Newly fallen snow

How blind are all the girls in this place anyway?? I mean LOOK at that profile pic!!! If I were ten years younger I would be such the smitten kitten. Srsly. :blushing:

Commenting to find later. Great thread OP. :)

I like to mix canned pure pumpkin into my cottage cheese (2:1.5 cheese to pumpkin), add pumpkin pie seasoning and Truvia™. I pretty much eat it daily right now lol.

I've read that it still works even if you're doing NO meaningful exercise. Just gotta make sure you're choosing the most appropriate activity level when you're figuring out your calories. I think where lifting comes in handy is when you're very short and close to goal, lifting build muscle (obviously) which weighs more…

I'm a nurse and I refuse them every year even though it makes my director decidedly UNhappy. But I give about a thousand to folks who want 'em. To each their own. We all have our reasons. :)

I *love* sweaty guys, omg, I have the utmost appreciation for construction/road workers lol, God bless those muscley, sweaty, dirty boys. *_* I don't pay a lot of attention to what guys wear casually or to workout unless it's extremely sloppy looking or extremely polished, I can't stand either one. Clean (not ragged,…

People who feel compelled to express their racist, sexist political opinions in their status updates, omg I delete them so fast it's ridiculous. People who come off as holier-than-though, or seem uptight/easily offended, people who deliberately undereat, if I can hear banjos playing in their Saturday night status updates…

I'm terrified of heights & large bodies of water especially if the water is not crystal clear (oceans, lakes, rivers etc) I don't know if I'm more afraid of drowning or not being able to see WTF is down there ::shudder::. There's this clear skywalk-type thing, I think is in Chicago, anyway you're way the **** up there and…

For me personally I wanted to exhaust all other venues before I was willing to turn to medication. We did dairy free/gluten free for a few months, tried homeopathics, a chiropractor, play therapy, occupational therapy, behavior modification, vitamin supplements, omegas, etc. NOTHING made a hint of difference. I hate that…

My middle son has a list of diagnoses with ADHD impulsive type being one of his comorbid conditions. I held off on medicating him until he was almost 5 but life was hell until then, believe me. We went through daycares like crazy during that time, it ea exhausting. Even once I finally decided to try meds it was another 2…

They make for a lovely cheek & lip stain but I won't eat them. Nasty. Just awful.

Not so. See Intermittent Fasting. I get up at 6:45 am, I break fast at 1 pm. Never been happier or felt better. It's what works for me and a lot of other heavy lifters. :)

A. How is this even a topic in 2012? B. No one is ”pure” anything anymore, we're all blended, and only becoming more so. Get over it. C. If it's not your thing, fine, but don't push your preferences on me or anyone else. Who other people love is none of your concern. AT. ALL.

I'm 5'1” and dated a guy for awhile who was only 5'5”, max. I loved it. It was the best fit ever...physically, lol. He was so ridiculously good looking, too. Damn. I don't think his height ever factored into his success with dating. I bet short girls have zero problem with your height. And there are a lot of us…

THIS! :) I love my vegan friends, I love their food and I respect what they're trying to do even if it isn't my thing. That said, going strict vegan isn't a guarantee of excellent health as I know a few vegans with weight problems that just seem to be getting worse over the years.

I felt like that all this summer and was doing just as badly with the bingeing and skyrocketing over goal and zero motivation. I had already done a metabolic refeed/reset so my calorie goal was appropriate, but even at 1700 cal/day I was so hungry all the time which made me miserable and chronically *****y, and then I'd…

RIGHT?! Please believe that type of crap does NOT improve once you get married, quite the OPPOSITE, actually. Run while you still can. Run far and run hard. :(

So because he has a problem with his friend's loose skin he HAS to bring it up or he's being dishonest?? That's ridiculous. I think a lot of things about a lot of people, doesn't mean I'm obligated to speak out about it. Half the time there's no point in saying anything anyway, especially if nothing good is likely to come…

OMG WTF?!? Why is this loser your FIANCE?? I'd rather be alone forever than deal with that level of assholery. Srsly. I'd totally be using his toothbrush to scrub the toilet skids and pissing in his beer any chance I got if I stuck around so I'd do us both a favor and boot his *kitten* out of my life. >:(

I agree! I love the quote from Ego the food critic on Ratatouille, ”I don't like food, I LOVE it, and if I don't love it, I don't SWALLOW.” lol, and I have actually spit out a food I didn't like because I wasn't going to waste a calorie on it lol.

I'll swap for something healthier as long as I don't have to ”cultivate a taste” for it. Like we stopped eating spaghetti noodles when we realized spaghetti squash tasted really freaking good with spaghetti sauce. I use avocado in place of butter in baked goods. Stopped eating whole wheat bread in favor of Ezekiel bread.…

I tried this multi-grain stuff with brown rice, quinoa, rye, barley and oats and HATED it plain. Srsly gross. I was so pissed I was now committed to eating a full cup of it. Then in a stroke of brilliance I added a splash of white vinegar and some hot madras curry powder and it was AMAZING. I was sad when it was gone, lol.…

I *think* his name is Hendrix...? lol. I have never seen his face (because I am accessing via my Droid so navigating page to page kind of sucks so I rarely creep profiles) but his profile pic is beautimous and I tend to love his posts. He's not even my friend, I just ”see” him around a lot. I have to like a guy's brain…

A US size 3/4. Just because I'm never satisfied, lol. I'm currently wearing 5/6s, the smallest size I've worn, well, EVER. But I've been this size since April and it doesn't feel so amazing anymore. Until I look at the size 18s I was wearing a little over a year ago lol.

My God, if a daddy had ever spoken those words to me I wonder how drastically different the course of my life might have been. Being a good dad is important, ESPECIALLY if you have little girls. True story.
