workout nice coffee
I wake up at 4:15 A.M., get some coffee, turn on the news, see what's happening, go clickety-clack on the web to see what I missed overnight. Then I go to the gym, around 5:15, and I do what appears to be a very light workout, but who cares. I'm socializing with other nice people at the gym. Then I go into work, and I'm really awake.
issues weight liquid
I've had weight issues all my life. I've been on all the diets: Atkins, liquid protein, Scarsdale diet. Now I go to the gym often. I'm always on the StairMaster, and I do weights.
girl new-york cities
In New York City, you can walk down the street and see a girl in a trench who looks equally as cool as a girl wearing Lululemon. It's like you're watching models. You see a little of everything right by you.
perfect may ends
Life's not perfect. Some loose ends may never get trimmed up and tidied.
spiders ive-learned life-goes-on
The biggest thing I've learned is to smash my own spiders and get on with my day. There will be another!
style looks classic
I love Jennifer Aniston's style. She is streamlined and never overdone. And Demi Moore always looks classic, gorgeous and sophisticated.
I'm good at picking friends.
world unbelievable persons
If we all helped one person, wouldn't the world be an unbelievable place?
should-have people hot
Weight is just not a hot button. In fact, during my life, it probably should have been on my radar screen a bit more. I look back at work photos and am shocked. Was I eating the people I was interviewing?! Good Lord, I was big.
cancer thinking broken
I'm an optimist, so I think everything can be worked out and fixed. But from having cancer I learned that even if you're even an optimist, sometimes you just have to face the facts that certain things are broken.
home cities imperfect
It's made me realize that imperfect is perfectly comfortable to me. Whether it's a city or my apartment, I feel most at home when things are somewhat flawed.
people shows
There are times when you just have to show people that you're all in.
voice singing karaoke
I'm a huge karaoke person even though I have the worst singing voice. When you love doing something, who cares?
garbage cookies cascade
It's gotten to the point where if I throw a cookie in the garbage, I have to douse it in Cascade. Otherwise, why wouldn't I take it out and eat it?
