Vacation = diet down the tubes

I'm over at the Girls, God, and the Good Life blog today with some random thoughts on healthy living while on vacation:

My agent and many of my friends have Kindles and love them. I have a Nook from Barnes and Noble and am partial to it, because I can buy ebooks from both BarnesandNoble.com and Fictionwise.com (which is a little cheaper) and read my ebooks on my Nook. With the Kindle, you can only buy books from Amazon.com.



The Nook now has a Wi-Fi only version ($149) that's even cheaper than the Kindle, and their 3G version (similar to the Kindle and the Nook that I have) is o...

Captain's Log, Stardate 06.23.2010



In case any of you were wondering why I haven't posted regularly for the past month or two, I'm on deadline. My email Inbox has 800 messages, I haven't checked most of my email loops in forever, and my house has accumulated tumbleweeds of dog hair and cat-sized dust bunnies. (It was a choice between exercise and cleaning house, so I was selfish and chose me. :)

I'm crazy--I love running!

Captain's Log, Stardate 06.21.2010



Some of you may not be on Facebook or Twitter and may not yet have heard me gushing (ad nauseum) about my new hobby!

I have never been able to say that before I started the Jeff Galloway running program, but now I can really say I love running!

Before you call the Gotham Sanitarium, read this to let me explain why this is cool and doesn't make me feel like I'm going to have a heart attack.



I'm not expecting to convert (many) people, but I have been just ...
