Need to Eat

... at these places! Places in Pittsburgh that I haven't been to an need to visit. 

Bona Terra in Sharpsburg.

Spice Island Tea House in Oakland.

Soba in Shadyside.

Harris Grill in Shadyside, haven't been there since they reopened. 

That's it for now. I'll keep adding. 

So sleepy.

What is wrong with me? Oh so very many things. But mostly I am tired all the time. I never stop being tired. I could sleep forever and sometimes it feels like I do. Maybe I need to eat better and workout. That would probably help. I'l start that... tomorrow.

Welcome 2009!

So I welcomed the new year with a puke bucket and Dick Clark. Yes I have the flu. I had the startings of a head cold on Tuesday but the last few hours have convinced me that it is indeed the stomach flu. It is one thing to be throwing up on New Year's because you drank too much but this is unfair. The worst of it was I had gone to bed early cause I didn't feel good, way before midnight kids, and when I woke up sick to my stomach at 11:30 my whole family was also already sound asleep in their beds. No joke- my whole family decided not to ring in the new year. It was like I moved into the old folks home. Watching Dick Clark didn't help. Seriously he is old, he has done a good job, Dick retire, spend your new years on a beach in the Bahamas sipping a Pina Colada you deserve it! I don't think Dick Clark reads my blog but that's my thought on that. So now it is ridiculously early in 2009 and I wish I could sleep but instead me and my puke bucket are watching an Alicia Silverstone marathon.

Maybe I'll think about my New Year's resolutions.
