Epidemics

Another scary side-effect of our society's expanding waistlines: a new research study published in the medical journal Pediatrics shows a (not all that surprising) link between mothers who are obese during pregnancy and increased rates of children being born with Austim spectrum disorders and other neurological disorders.

Seriously people, put down the soda, and the double cheeseburger, pick up some fruits and veggies, and MOVE!

Flourish!

Happy 117th Birthday Chi Omega!

Dallas/Fort Worth had 12 tornadoes yesterday....my old office had a really close call and during a video conference with us here on the Best Coast, they had to evacuate the conference room and gather in the storm shelter (aka the innermost hallway). A cancelled business trip kept me in San Diego this week, but storm chasing and dodging flying 18-wheelers on I-20 could've been fun!

Happy Bday Corral Pal!!

Today we celebrate the birth of one of the most amazing, unique, and fun-loving people I know....she was my first friend at SMU and God surely blessed me putting this girl in my life! Her wedding is just around the corner and while I'm devastated I can't be in Cowtown this weekend to participate in the bachelorette festivities, I'm eagerly counting down the days until I see this crazy, wonderful, smiling face next month!!!

 Just chillin' in the Prius, solo. Probably has the heat seaters on full blast even though it's about 78 degrees outside.

Happy Birthday Shufy!! Love you and miss you TONS!

(I almost posted the videos of your Cali road-trip singing performance....I decided against it, but they may be making an appearance at the wedding...just a heads up!)

I Don't Wanna Be Mean, But....

9:30am, Saturday, Starbucks

What you don't see: the full makeup, that's a dress, not a skirt, and the large, pink, monogrammed canvas bag she was carrying. Potential explanations: She's going to In Cahoots tonight and won't have time to go home and change beforehand. She thought "Star"-bucks was a place aspiring movie stars (who want to do low budge porn) hang out. 

Most likely: She just got off the late shift at Cheetahs and is getting her studying done because she "only dances to put herself through school". 

I swear I'm not a terrible person.
