You can say what you want about Mojo (not really, actually), but we can all agree he is one shiny, crisco lovin' mutha.

Alex: “What are you gonna do? Recite my name over and over?"

Fish slips into 14-year-old boy's private part!

I think my friend Melissa should start her own blog, featuring the craziest links, articles, and sites found on this huge expanse of web terrain. She finds it all. I don't ask why, I never ask how. I just say thank you. And I will keep sharing!

I just wish this article wasn't about a fourteen year old boy. While I don't want a young boy to be scared or suffer, mostly, I want to make raunchy comments. I can't. It's wrong. Let's just say, thank goodness it wasn't a girl. She'd have an unfortunate nickname follow her for way too long!

Tracy Anderson

What do Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna have in common? That's easy! Kids, England, adorable and talented husbands, money, fame, fake blond hair, multiple homes, international acclaim, they have both used fake British accents (One was paid for it, the other just likes to play pretend.) But their most important similarity to me is their personal trainer, Ms. Tracy Anderson. Madonna gracing the cover of Vanity Fair looking like a woman thirty years her junior is incredible! And I don't care what anyone says, it must feel really great to look like THIS on a red carpet.

My DVR informed me that Oprah was starting her new season, because I started seeing episodes in my "to-watch list," and I usually delete them. No offense, Oprah, I just can get SO depressed watching sometimes. But if it isn't a downer show, I'm all in. And last night, Gwyneth was on, talking about her personal trainer, Tracy Anderson, showing clips of her actual work-outs. She also said that while she refrains from eating any four-legged animals, she didn't deprive herself of anything else. Breads and cheeses and desserts and anything she wants.  Please don't ask me why I have been interested in Gwyenth's eating habits. When I was in college, I read she was on a raw foods, macro-biotic diet. Where no organic fruit or vegetable cold be heated past 120 degrees. I lasted a few weeks, miserably. I like to think I could have lasted longer, if I too had a personal chef to prepare everything for me. But since I had no real way of knowing if my carrot was cooked to just 120 degrees, everything was raw. 

Enough of my rant. I just purchased 2 of her 3 available DVD's, getting a mat workout and a dance cardio workout, and forgoing a post-pregnancy workout for at least a few more years. I wanted to write this all out now, as my purchase is being processed and shipped. While I am still excited and haven't experienced the price one pays for eating whatever they want and still looking like this.

My Four Elements:

When I first took this picture, I thought it looked like the four elements: Sun, Rock, Metal, Air. And I after I checked, it may not look so much like Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth. I am pretty sure Sun, Rock, Metal, Air is better!

Me: "Jill looks a little like Hayden Panettiere."

Jordan: (As Jillian throws herself onto his stomach...) "She weighs as much as Hayden Lardentiere, also!"

Jordan: “Yup, me and her are like mother and daughter.”

All Commercials Must Take Heed...

I had heard of Extended Stay Hotels before, mostly, because the rooms come equipped with kitchens, so it's like at home living away from home. But, I had no idea they were really different from any other hotels, until I saw this commercial:

Now, if we could get the Ritz Cartlon featuring some hangover retching, we'd have ourselves a face-off!!

"Guyland" Sucks!

Clare sent me this link a while back, and said "This is why I am single." And "I" seems to be a collective:

I took this picture standing out in front of Miriam's* house. And when I took it, I was swelling with Pride. Miriam owns an honest-to-God house with a wrap around porch and backyard and adult things inside. When I looked at this picture later, I realized it could be a proud shot for Americans everywhere... or maybe just me still.

*Miriam- My ex-step-aunt-who is more like a sister to me than anyone could ever be.

This was taken after Carrie and I discovered we had the same glittery credit card. And we simultaneously said "Wow, that's really wierd."

Wow, that's really weird. Squared.

Strange and Unusual

Where does one strangely long Yorkie end....

And an unusually plump Puggle begin?

Quote of the Day

As I stopped by my grandparents and we started watching "Secondhand Lions"...

Grandpa: "Michael Caine's Jewish, you know."

Grandma: "How do you know?"

Grandpa: "I know a lot of things. Make it my business to know other people's business."

**Ah, yes, my grandfather. The original National Enquirer.

These awesome little mini-logs-into-Buddha's are scattered throughout Veggie Heaven in Teaneck. I was in awe of how awesomely carved he was. And Keith suggested I shove him in my purse and take him home. Does nobody understand Karma??!?
