So. I went to the family dinner tonight (mini, mom’s side). It was at an Italian-like food place named Morita’s. Don’t ask because I don’t know why an Italian place has a Japanese name. Anyway, I was pretty much defeated by the rest of the day, so I just went (I had originally told my… Continue Reading

The Old is New Again
Edited to Add: Day Three pictures, bitchez! So. Today. Bro knocked at the door this morning to ask if I wanted to go with him and my niece to grab a bun. I’m always up for some bun-grabbin’, so I said yes. Hey, he knocked and asked if I wanted to go. That’s a… Continue Reading
Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes, and, the Anatomy of a Taiwanese Woman
I couldn’t sleep last night (surprise surprise). I got up in the middle of the night to do some online stuff before trying to sleep a bit more. When I finally got out of bed, it was eight-thirty. To my mild surprise, no brother barging into my room. Nothing. Fifteen minutes later, I heard a… Continue Reading
Blowin’ and Throwin’
I’m mad. I’m mad that I have to be dealing with this eating bullshit again, especially now. I’m mad that as a highly-intelligent woman, I can’t stop equating my worth to a number on the scale. I mean, my blood pressure is a steady 120/80, and my cholesterol is low. My pulse is good, and… Continue Reading
It’s Not Just Food
Ok. I had my therapist appointment today, and we discovered that I am fucked up when it comes to food. No, really! I know, amazing, but true. I have had ED issues since I was eighteen. Twenty years. To recap, I went on a strict diet right before going to college because I decided that… Continue Reading
Welcome Back, Bitchez!
Hello, bitchez. Have you missed me? I have missed you–and blogging. I kind of took blogging for granted before I embarked on my third NaNoWriMo, and I didn’t realize how much I got out of it. So I am back with a vengeance, though I cannot say better than ever. First, housecleaning details: 200,220… Continue Reading
She’s So Hot
Today, there was a shooting near Pittsburgh. I was gonna write about the rightwing, antisocial, white male gun nut who shot up an aerobics class full of women before allegedly killing himself and how even liberal guys seemed to sympathize with him to some extent, but I’m still too upset about it to be at… Continue Reading
One Hour
One hour. That’s all it took before I felt like a big, ugly oaf. That is when my mom brought out the clothes she had brought from Taiwan for me. This year, the fashion over there is skinny pants coupled with long, slim shirts. Now, even in my best of times, that is not… Continue Reading
Weightier
Well, since I’m up when I don’t want to be (like that’s anything new), I thought I’d whip off an entry since I slacked off last night. Then, I really must clean as we (by we, I mean I) are coming down to crunch time. The score is tied, and with 5 seconds left, a… Continue Reading
Weight of the World
All right, mateys! Up next is item number two on my list, losing weight. You might want to put on your hip waders because it’s gonna get dirty and ugly up in here. Why? Because when I talk about weight issues, it ain’t pretty. This time, I’m looking at the issue of weight mostly… Continue Reading
