Kids are at school…I work late tonight…so I took advantage of a quiet morning and went on a great 10 mile bike ride. Today, I kept it simple and hit the bicycle trail. There’s been a bit of a bad bike-accident streak amongst my co-workers, so I wanted to keep it as safe as possible. …
I’ve been singing that Christmas tune all day…not because I’m excited for Christmas…but because it’s the start of the fall television season! YAHOO!!! The official start of the fall TV season is Sept. 25, but many new shows debut right after Labor Day. Now, some of those shows are lame…90210, the new Melrose Place, but…
Random thoughts while watching the third episode of the season.. 1. Tim Gunn in flip flops! Awesome…but dude, lose the blazer! 2. Like the idea of this challenge…but putting them with partners, that’s just mean! 3. I swear some of the people I’m seeing this week I’ve never seen before…some guy named Nicolas Putvinski? How…
Apparently I was one of the few in the world who actually watched the 2009 Daytime Emmy Awards. I must confess, I didn’t watch the whole thing, but most of it. Only 2.68 million people tuned into the 36th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards Ceremony on The CW – with a 0.6/2 rating/share, and the pre-show…
So…I made a mistake while watching Project Runway this week…I watched with my husband…. Here’s the problem…he laughed every time that Tim Gunn spoke. DON’T DISS THE GUN! That behavior is going to have to change if he expects to watch with me in the future… Anyway- here are my thoughts on week two… 1)…
Sunday School started again today…which is a good thing… It makes me get out of the house, I get time to just go to church and chill, and then it’s straight off to the YMCA, since we’re already half-way there! Today at the Y I did 35 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes on the…
The bad news, I’ve been slacking on the blog… The good news, I haven’t been slacking on the exercise! Today I went on a beautiful 7.2 mile bike ride through the wilderness of Orange/Seminole County…basically, the area behind my subdivision…before we yuppies moved in…. Here’s a quick wrap: Time on bike: 58 minutes Distance on…
My random thoughts while watching the season premiere: 1) You can’t cry during the first challenge…it’s just not going to go well for you. 2) I’m not sure standing on your head to come up with a red-carpet design is going to do the trick…but you go with your geometric shape crap… 3) I love…
My name is Jen Cook and it’s been two weeks since I’ve been through a drive-through. Trust me, that is progress! Yes, I miss my Filet-O-Fish, but I’m proud that I’ve been able to step away from it and the oh-so-yummy french fries.
The world has lost a legend today, film director John Hughes. I know it’s silly, I didn’t know the guy, but I felt like I did. He truly touched my life…in so many different ways. John Hughes was born in Lansing, Michigan (ironically, where I went to College!!!) and his family moved to Illinois right…
