I’ll admit that I love Lil Wayne’s music, and I too am probably somewhat to blame for perpetuating the language that rappers – and many men in general – use towards women. I hope I can teach my daughters that we are not defined by what anyone thinks or says about us. And I hope they’re cool enough to compose open letters in music video form.

Quote of the Day
“He talks about a guy who was always happy, always positive, and someone asked him, ‘Why are you always happy?’ His answer was that everything in life is a choice – you can choose to be happy or choose to be upset about it…If you choose to be happy all the time, and you choose to be positive, then you’re going to live a good life and succeed a lot.” – Mark Herzlich, probable NFL draft pick and cancer survivor, at the NFL combine.

Weight Loss Week One: So I Guess This is Happening
I’m not even going to go into specifics about how much I ate over the past week, and how much weight I gained (clearly, the opposite of what I was supposed to be doing). I will tell you, however, that I ate at Eagle’s Deli twice on Sunday, and as most of you know, this is the worst possible thing you could do for weight loss, your heart, your digestive system, your skin and basically any type of overall health. For breakfast, I ordered a #6, which is basically one of everything. And for dinner I had mozzarella sticks and french fries forced upon me by my cousin Elizabeth (you know her as the cute girl behind the register). Ugh. Even if I hadn’t eaten anything for the next four days it still would have been a gain week. So to punish myself for it, I’ve decided to run a half marathon.
