Day 3 - I Love Chelsea

[fredericks]

I pass by this bakery after leaving Whole Foods, and the name along with its mascot always get a chuckle out of me. Subtle it is not. Amusing? Yes indeedy.

Today I continued with the "no earphones on the train" bit, made my bed, and I also decided to stick with Pilates. That required me speaking up to the instructor to let her know that all the frou-frou directions ("visualize a string leading from your head to your sit bones" [wtf are "sit bones"? anyone ever run across those in anatomy and physiology?] weren't working for me. And rather than that getting me crucified by more advanced classmates it garnered more specific step-by-step instruction of particular moves AND the instructor spent more time going to everyone individually to make sure they were performing the motions correctly. Being the squeaky wheel is not necessarily a bad thing.

I finished Thin is the New Happy and am re-starting The Year of Living Biblically. I'm practically going through books at a clip pace; two in a week! I haven't done that since high school.

Nothing else to add to this entry as I'm tired as a mofo. Hope I can think of something else to do tomorrow.

I Googled the bakery to show my mom and we clicked on the link to the NY Daily News article. Mom, apropos of nothing, goes "is [the owner] gay?" and I go "one, the shop is called 'Big Booty Bakery'. Two, it's in Chelsea. Three, he's posing in the picture [with the article] with his mother. So, maybe?" We're planning a trip to the store the next time we're in the area.

And, yes, he totally does look like the pic. :)
