How do you get funding for your research? Associate it with weight loss! No matter how tenuous the connection, no matter if your research already shows that it doesn’t work – more research is needed. You know what? I would love if being fat were a choice. But for most people it isn’t. Just like…
Of all my babiest cats, Esperanza was the babiest. I was living in Silver Lake area of Los Angeles. I came home to discover that me and my roommate had a new kitten – a mostly white calico (just a few spots here and there of gray and tan). He had come home and heard…
My weekday breakfast of choice is either instant Cream of Wheat or instant Oatmeal. It’s quick and easy and I like it. The package instructions tell you to put water and the cereal in a cup and pop it into the microwave. LIARS! Anyone who has actually followed those instructions can tell you that you…

Leo is known as the puke master in our house. He is a very clean cat. Not only does he keep himself very clean, he likes to clean Murphy too. That’s a lot of cat fur and too much cat fur makes any cat a little urpy. It makes Leo very urpy. He also gets…
I have played the role of Miss Hannigan a total of three times, and I would LOVE to play her again before I die. I love Miss Hannigan. And what I find interesting is the biggest fans of my Miss Hannigan are usually the mothers of the children in the show. This is for two…
