1.  From my “Little Did They Know” file, I’ve lost over 150 pounds.  Of course they were the same 5-10 pounds over and over and over again, but still.

2.  You ever wake up in a cold sweat wondering what photos will surface on social media from the night before? Yeah, me neither.

3.  I have a friend who no matter what you state, will have a counter-perspective or a flat out disagreement.  Use to piss me off.   But since I started to expect it, it entertains me.  If the truth be known, I’ve learned a thing or two in the process.

4. I hate it when no spoiler alert is given.

5.  Just so you know, I have one degree of separation from Kevin Bacon.

K, so when I worked on Buzzine Magazine, one of our investors worked on Will and Grace (hence the one degree of separation since Bacon guest starred on W&G).  One day I arrived at the office to find the prop used on that particular episode in our office.  It was a life-size cardboard cut out of Kevin Bacon.  My partner Aaron, would fuck with me by moving it from time to time and I would arrive in my office, and BAM! There was Kevin Bacon.  Good times.

6.  I always try to do the surveys after I receive some sort of service, like staying at a hotel, or buying a car, or getting support from website hosting company.    I figure, I’m already on their email list and I do want them to provide better service or maintain it if its excellent.

7.  Did you see the photos of the deceased Puerto Rican boxer who was propped up in a fake boxing ring where his fans could walk up and have their photo taken with him?  I sincerely hope this does not start a whole new fad.  Freaked me out!! Don’t believe me?  Google it.

8.  One has to learn that there is always going to be someone who doesn’t like you.  Which leads to the question, HOW COME?!!!!

9.  So grateful Sydney Rose quit smoking.

Yes, I use to smoke.  I gave it up the year before I wanted to get pregnant to rid a lot of the toxins out of my body.  I never went back.  That doesn’t mean the cravings went away altogether, and it doesn’t mean I don’t still have nightmares that I started smoking again, but I’m sure glad I don’t.  (I’m thinking I was around 24 in the pix)

10.  So grateful I had Lasik eye surgery.

Yes, I use to wear contacts and before that funky eye glasses which I thought were fashionable for the day.  (I’m thinking I was around 21?)
I had the procedure done about ten years ago when not only couldn’t I see far away (since the 4th grade), but I could no longer see the small print either!  It was quite a miracle waking up the next morning and being able to see the clock across the room.

11.  From my favorite quotes file:  “Bless her heart” is the nice way to say “What a fucking lunatic” – Molly McNearney, writer for Jimmy Kimmel
