Thankful Thursday
[Another weekly exercise in gratitude.] 1) Wrapping up a project at work. 2) Nice weather makes walking outside fun. 3) Being able to make dinner from an onion, a can of clams, a box of noodles, some grated Parmesan and dried basil. 4) Carrie Fisher’s book Wishful Drinking is out in paperback. Giggling through it Tuesday and Wednesday really helped preserve my sanity. 5) The man of the house, who provides…

I’ve had Seanan McGuire’s “Another Mad Science Love Song” stuck in my head for days. Lyrics are here; an excerpt is here. The other mad scientist part is sung by Tom Smith. Yes, there are definite parallels with Grease’s “Summer Nights“.

I don’t believe in horoscopes, but I find FreeWill Astrology often gives me food for thought. This week’s Taurus horoscope is: Have you ever mused on the fact that your body is actually a kind of furnace? And that your whole life depends upon it? Food and oxygen are constantly combusting inside you, generating fiery energy that fuels your every movement, thought, and feeling. This awareness of…

[Another weekly exercise in gratitude.] 1) Two new bras that fit great! 2) Friends who take me out to dinner. :) 3) Being able to lift & carry 50lbs repeatedly on Saturday. (Also known as “weight lifting is working for me!” ) 4) Finally getting some serious rain this week. This is helping clear the air, which is good for my asthma, but it’s also a “home-y” thing for…

Repost: Wellness Prescription
A repost from January, inspired by Fillyjonk’s post quoting Three Men in a Boat. I got Connie Willis’ comedic time-travel novel To Say Nothing of the Dog from the library (and liked it enough to buy it). It starts off a little confusing but is pretty funny, and full of golden age mystery fiction references. It also contains several homages to the 1889 book Three Men in a Boat (To…

Window Shopping: Sweaters
[Looking at supersize / extended size clothing, which is to say, clothing I can wear. Preferably modeled by fat people] After weeks of highs in the 70s and 80s we’re suddenly experiencing … fall. I even wore a sweater to work today. I’ve been looking forward to sweater season this year. Suddenly I don’t worry about whether my bra’s cup seams show. Since my desk…

With the fall TV season starting, it might be good to think about which TV shows you actually want to watch. Kate and Marianne point out in Lessons from the Fat-o-Sphere that watching TV encourages you to compare your body to the people on TV – who with very few exceptions are underweight and fat-shaming, or fat-shaming commercials.
