Misbehaving Tuesday: Ayurvedic Edition

Teacher training over the weekend got me thinking: which dosha governs misbehaving? Most dosha tests reveal that I am equally kapha and pitta, with vata always scoring very low. So, it stands to reason that if we all have elements of all three doshas, my misbehaving dosha would be vata. It is the dosha I [...]

Misbehaving Tuesday: Getting Poked Edition

My day started with a good, long, hard stare into my underwear drawer. I had a doctor’s appointment scheduled and no matter how brazen I may be in some parts of my life -blogging about my underwear for example- I just cannot bring myself to wear even remotely sexy underwear to a doctor’s appointment. I [...]

Misbehaving Tuesday: Retail Therapy Edition

This Misbehaving Tuesday found me feeling a little off, getting kicked around by hormones and the weather. It being Tuesday and all, I decided it was time to bust out the pink wallet, which sounds provocatively euphemistic, but really: I have this little pink wallet that says, “shoe fund” on it, and while the [...]

Misbehaving Tuesday: Orange Pants Edition

The first Misbehaving Tuesday of 2010 has been a great success. Highlights: 1. I overslept, blissfully. 2. Orange pants! 3. As I was walking up an aisle in Whole Foods, a woman walking toward me with her cart stopped abruptly and stared at me. “Your hair is beautiful,” she said. “It’s a beautiful style. Perfect for your face.” [...]

Socks: The Final Frontier

For the past week I have been contemplating the bigger issues of life – finding beauty, sacredness, and nobility in everyday actions, conducting myself with kindness and integrity, trusting intuition – but at the same time I have been giving some thought to why it is exactly that my summer shoes outnumber my winter shoes [...]

An Open (Love)Letter to Loehmanns Department Store

Dear Loehmanns, I am writing to tell you that I think you are positively keen. Why? Because your lingerie department is full of oddly sized, inexpensive bras in fun colors and shapes. We’re a perfect match, you and me. Your lingerie department is small yet robust, much like yours truly. You have lots of matching sets [...]

43

Today was Scott’s birthday. In honor of his oldness, I baked a cake. This is the Phabulous Philadelphia Pumpkin Chocolate ChampionChip Bun(d)t Cake. I made a few tweaks to this recipe since I posted it last October, and it is really just spectacular. There were only five of us tonight, and currently there are two pieces [...]

How My Brain Works

Transcript, brain activity at 3:42 am. Rightbrain: Thongs! Leftbrain: Mwwwrfh. Rightbrain: Thongs! Leftbrain: Huh? Rightbrain: Thongs! Thongs! Thongs! Leftbrain: You did not just wake us up at 3:42 in the morning to think about thongs. Rightbrain: Thongs! Besides, I did us a favor. The alarm didn’t go off. Leftbrain: Alarm is set for 5:42. FIVE. Rightbrain: So what’s [...]

I cracked.

Here is how I know there is still work to be done: Yesterday I became thoroughly enraged by a woman’s ass. I encountered her and her ass several times during my trip to Whole Foods. She was wearing a dress that I don’t think was meant to be a dress (I believe the intended purpose was [...]

Bikram 2, 3 and 4, I Don't Hate It Anymore

I am glad that I have been practicing long enough to know that if I hate it, I need to try it some more. I went back to Bikram Saturday, Monday, and today, and I might be hooked. Friday must have been a particularly stinky morning, because while the studio still does smell, it has [...]
