The Worst Thing I Could Do

javajennifer admins | June 28, 2008

“I’m voting for McCain”, I said casually wondering if anyone would hear me over Snakes on a Plane.  My newly minted 21 year old niece picked up on it right away- “getting it” in fact that I’m one of the 18 Million disgruntled democrats who voted for Hillary and isn’t quite ready to participate in [...]

Wii in the Windy City

javajennifer | June 27, 2008

I had a fantasy of what it would be like to see Mr. Wii and it didn’t include being on my cel phone with a client in my travel clothes which consist of sweats and my Merrills when he let himself into my hotel room.  USAir and United in a likely conspiracy routed my luggage [...]

Do you want fries with that?

I hate buying tampons.  Without doing a comprehensive poll of my friends I still feel confident in saying that none of them likes buying tampons.  It’s not just that they’re expensive or that they are a seemingly never-ending purchase it’s that there is that moment when the checkout guy (and make no mistake, it ‘s [...]

21 Years

javajennifer admins | June 15, 2008

I have two friends I lovingly refer to as “the supermodels”.  They are both tall, blond and freakishly attractive.  I know that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” but each uses their respective superhero powers (boobs for one, long legs for the other) to fight crime and stop traffic.  When we are together [...]

If She Could Speak

Pumpkin spent her first 12 weeks of kitten-hood on the mean streets of Poolesville, Maryland.  To survive, she hustled strangers for table-scraps and along the way, developed an ugly penchant for 3-card-Monty.  She was nearly captured several times but always managed to escape until one day she gave up the fight and after a prolonged struggle [...]

Things that make you Sweat: Part One

javajennifer admins | June 10, 2008

The thermostat on my car reads 103 degrees and my work clothes are clinging to me like sticky rice and sushi.  The last 3 days have been hot and sweaty- and who among us doesn’t enjoy a good sweaty night now and again (take the couple on the Today Show  this morning who had 101 [...]

Points of View

javajennifer admins | June 6, 2008

Two people in my inner circle have expressed opposing points of view with regard to be named and nicknamed in this blog- a blog that for all intents and purposes is read by so few people that I’m not sure why I’m giving this space today. Person A doesn’t really “get” the blog but basically [...]

Little Miss Georgetown

My famous dietician was on TV all morning. I celebrated by eating healthy. See blog titled “Are you what you eat” for a full description of LMG.

Tampa: Good from Afar, Far from Good

javajennifer admins | June 2, 2008

I was walking to my car outside the Whole Foods yesterday, proudly parked in the spot up front reserved for Expectant Mothers; I’m fat enough to pull it off but more importantly, these spots are usually adjacent to the ones marked for handicapped.  Pregnancy is not a handicap and so I park there in spite.
