I love sipping my first cup of coffee in the early morning when most of the city is still asleep. Nothing like it! The sun looks like it wants to come out but is not quite certain yet. I hope it makes the right decision to shine...

It’s another soggy morning. The sky is dark, grey and heavy with pregnant clouds. Although there is no sun, there is no lack of heat. The air is a warm, wet blanket that swaddles me and threatens to smother me. This is July....

AnjaP I really don't know how to respond to such contentment. You are lucky, indeed, to face the seasons with such enthusiasm. I am all wrapped up in pouting.

I see these days people are so health-conscious and it's good actually that they are keeping note of how many carbs they are taking and earlier on I think it was only celebs or entertainers who used to do that and follow strict...

AnjaP @Alwayshopeful I understand, but carbs are addicting. You don't realize it until you give them up, but eating carbs causes more cravings for carbs and increases your appetite. Once you stop eating carbs, you lose the desire for them. So, you don't feel...

AnjaP @Butterfingers Yes. Using a ketogenic diet will induce ketosis, which burn fat rather than sugar. It is not easy to do if you are vegetarian, since most fruit and vegetables are high carb and so, eaten in more limited amounts. But getting rid of grains and...

My brother - who is more likely than I am to read local newspapers, and more specifically, the obituaries - informed me that my childhood dental hygienist had died. My childhood dentist died years and years and decades ago. He...

AnjaP If you don't remember, then they must not have been traumatic which means you had good dentists when you were young. That's a good thing. I think dentists can scare children even when they are nice.

AnjaP I imagine bullies are more comfortable bullying those they have control over. Upsetting paying patients would be a big mistake.

AnjaP Experiences in our childhood, good or bad, seem so much bigger in our memories because we were so much smaller.

I thought that hippies were the first to try to break free of the 'establishment' and many actually took to the roads and started hitch hiking their way across the US. I don't know where any of them actually wanted to go though. I...

AnjaP @mythociate I don't think they did but TOS didn't run very long and it wasn't until after TNG that they started constructing the whole canon. I am sure that Roddenberry would have made more of the character if he didn't have to meet network expectations...

AnjaP I've decided that I like November. It's just cold enough but not too snowy. All those pesky leaves are off the trees and so I can see out my windows. It's quite a bare bones month.
