I’m a little lagging in the blog department today. I don’t know. I guess I had few interactions with strangers or lezzies over the past couple of days. But I do have some links. This right here is making me reconsider my whole, “I’m a straight woman because I love having sex with men” idea.

Matt Davis wrote about how journalists dumb down their work so they’ll be popular. I have no idea what this is about. Especially because I just wrote this hard hitting piece of journalism for the Willamette Week and you still love me, right?

My bike is in the shop getting a tune up. That’s really taking up a lot of psychic space for me because it turns out, and I like to keep this hidden — I’m actually one of Portland’s bicyclists. No fucking shit. I ride my bike in Portland. For the past two weeks I’ve been using it as my main means of transportation.

This brings me to my next point — less than a month before I’m in LA. And I’m getting conflicted about the diet. I’ve been eating solid food for lunch and I’m not losing any more weight. I blame giving up smoothies and not the excess of gelato and cheeseburgers I’ve been eating. Now a lot of my conversations with Steve are about do I continue to diet before LA, or do I say fuck it, and just let me gut be? Steve said, “well, you can either go hardcore and we’ll buy a scale and you can chart your weight loss every single day and you can eat just salads for every meal. Or you can not.” And because he knows nothing frightens me more than numbers and salad, I think I’ll just maybe eat less cheeseburgers. And ride my bike. But my bike is in the shop until Monday. So I won’t be doing that.

But I did make a video for you. Because I love you too. But it’s taking forever to upload and I just realized that I’m running late for a meeting. Yes, I have meetings. Because I’m important. Okay, so I’ll come back later and put the video up. And maybe write something more interesting.
