So on Saturday some friends are having a fancy dress party. The theme is blue. I have three options, two I already own and one that involves wigs
A vintage dress that used to belong to my Great Grandma. It is both blue and sparkly
My wedding dress is a blue party dress from the late 50’s. [...]
So Willie is here for a visit and this month he brought with him mood swings and a replica of Mt Vesuvius on my chin. “Oh Carolyn,” I hear you say, “Don’t exaggerate. Mt Vesuvius is much too big to fit on your chin.”
Well, let me tell you, patronizing voice in my head, I have [...]
Last night was January’s installment of My Awesome Mix Tape at the Gowlett in Peckham. Since Harvey was out of town I (DJ Zbornak) got to be one of the guest DJs for the evening. I played about an hour and took the easy road for the evening by planning out a playlist on my Ipod [...]
I checked out a new Bikram Yoga Studio last night. This one near the Old St station. It’s smaller and a bit grottier than the one in sort of Soho that I started at but cheaper for 10-class passes and also a little bit easier to get to and from. The one in sort of [...]

I went back to Yoga last night and it was miserable. Seriously miserable.
The class was PACKED again and that makes the heat kick up a fair bit which leads to nausea and dizziness if you aren’t careful. Hell, even if you are careful. I think for the time being I need to stick to the [...]
So I started Bikram Yoga on Thursday and, seriously, it sucked. The first session left me feeling nauseated and dizzy, totally not fun. But I met my personal goal to at least stay in the room the whole time. I knew it would suck, I just didn’t know how much it would suck. I really [...]
So if you see a muffin called the Mega Berry Muffin you would assume that it would have a lot of berries in in it, right? You would expect such a muffin to be more berry than muffin, right? You would be all like, wow this is going to be like a giant bowl, a [...]
