After Two Months
It seems like longer than 2 months and six days, but since I started this journey towards better health on October 8, I've now passed 500,000 steps. That's halfway to my first goal whereby I can be remimbursed by my employer for the cost of my Fitbit.

So, I'm driving to work this morning...
I took Elaine to work this A.M. Not something I do often, but this morning I did.
To get from her office to campus, I drive up Broadway heading into town (That's west for you who are so inclined). When I reached the intersection of Broadway an College, I was greeted with the scene you see in the photo…

Manor-ly Speaking, I'm Having a Super Crisis...
So, the INTERNETS are going ape-shit-ZOMG!-crazy-crazy over Ben Affleck being cast as Batman in the next Superman movie.
My response to the news was and is, "Oh, really?" (insert yawn here)
Part of me is thinking it's inspired casting. Actually, most of me is thinking that. Affleck gets a bad rap for being in some cruddy movies. Gigli comes to ( Read more... )
