I’ve never been one of those people to censor myself or not talk/write about something that’s sensitive. But some things truly are very private. So this post is difficult to write, due to its private, sensitive nature. PolyCystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is typically caused by an imbalance of hormones. This usually means that the woman […]
Unrelated: Adorable Dogs and a Funny Article about Michael Phelps
For a laugh-out-loud experience, please visit this Runner’s World article now! Now, on to the adorable dogs. Jerry and I have been considering, for quite some time, the adoption of a needful dog as a final (for now) addition to our small menagerie. Today, I think we found the breed we are looking for.

Sharing Spin
I have a friend who sent me a link the other day to a video on the Internet. She and I are probably on opposite ends of the political spectrum. This video (http://www.eyeblast.tv/Public/Video.aspx?rsrcID=2036) is extremely critical of the candidate I support. While I value her friendship and the fact that we can share things like […]
Juno – Irreverent but irresponsible
I had high expectations for Juno because of the wonderful things I have heard about it from everyone. I saw it with my sister after she got it on DVD. The fact that Diablo Cody, the woman behind Pussy Ranch (which was first at www.pussyranch.net, then moved to http://blogs.citypages.com/dcody/, http://diablocody.blogspot.com/, and now blogs at MySpace: […]
