Genius.

Who loves this shtick as much as I do?

Dear Red Shirt Guy At Gym,

Hi.

Cutting to the chase: Your over developed pectoral muscles actually look like man boobs. Perhaps you should start to concentrate on another area.

Thanks,

Me

P.S. Blonde trainer at the gym, if you're reading this, I've finally figured something out. You look like Amanda Peet if Amanda Peet was blonde. It's been bugging me. We always seem to be in the same place at the same time at the gym. I knew you looked like someone but I couldn't figure out who. I know we're both actors and I've seen you at auditions but that wasn't it. It's that you look like a blonde Amanda Peet. The color of you eyebrows leads me to believe that you would actually look like Amanda Peet if you went au natural. I understand the blonde in that case. No two actresses can look alike. I get it.

UGGGGGGGH. Adorable.

It has begun.

It began along time ago but I was too wrapped up in trying to do too many things and not getting anything done to pay attention to life and all of the things that were happening too me and around me. You might think I posted these songs because I love JM and I want to have his babies. I don't. I actually like hearing songs when they are in the infant stage and then hearing how they progress into the final product that we all download from iTunes. I'm a songwriter/musician. It's a thing we do.

Eeeh. I'm rambling. I'm starting to sound like him. JM fans will understand what I mean.

Read this book.

It's amazing. It's the best book I've read this year.*

Read it. It's incredibly inspiring, witty, funny and uses the phrase "the right psychological moment" which my dad uses all the time to describe why things happen when they happen.

I will share with you my favorite passage from the very end of the book:

"Nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should. Good results require that one take time and care. If one doesn't use the freshest ingredients or read the whole recipe before starting, and if one rushes through the cooking, the results will be an inferior taste and texture -- a gummy beef Wellington, say. But a careful approach will result in a magnificent burst of flavor, a thoroughly satisfying meal, perhaps even a life-changing experience. "

A life lesson if I do say so myself.

As Julia would say, "Bon Appetit!"





*I need to say (for my own pride's sake) that I did not decide to read this book because of Julia and Julia coming out in theaters this weekend. I've wanted to read My Life in France since it came out. I didn't even realize the movie came out this weekend. I do want to see the movie, but I did not read this book because it's a fad. I read it because I love food and cooking and now Julia Child. For some reason I feel like Jeannie will understand why I had to write this side note.
