4.16 Already ready already

I had a lot of titles rolling in my head for this blog post, including “Summer a-weights” and “Weight no more: summer is here,” and then I realized that wordplay with “wait” and “weight” really isn’t that funny.

Don’t be insecure / If your heart is pure / You’re still good to me if you’re a bad kid, baby. Lady Gaga, “Bad Kids” Really, I just wanted to use a line from a Lady Gaga song. I’m back in the blogosphere. I took a little break to figure out how I want to…

3.16 Hard to Swallow

It’s been a hell of a week. In case you didn’t know, this weekend marks the end of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. This is a topic that I’ve toyed with touching on for months and months now, but I’ve never been able to put my thoughts into words. But, if there’s ever a time…
