in Would You Like Some Butter With That Roll?!! on Ragamuffin Soul
I'm feelin' you. I lost 30+ about 8 years ago and of course it's found a way to sneak back on. Last time I did a modifed Slim fast with low carbs and low fat/ workout 4x a week. I was dedicated, I was obsessed, it worked.
Last Jan I lost 15 doing Weight Watchers and working out. I need to do another 15-20 and am targeting Jan to get started. I'm thinking WW's again only because it works and it's fairly easy and of course I'll couple that with getting more dedicated to the gym (read, actually go).
One last thing, I have a friend who dropped 40lbs with the 'Cookie diet' (you can google it). It works, but it's about $8 a day.
Good luck Los.

Hang in there, it does get easier, just not right away. In the meantime starring at your gorgeous little girl isn't a bad thing.

Lack of sleep is def the most challenging part of the first few months. Sounds like you are settling in nicely.

in Happy Thanksgiving! on A Mike Life
T-day flag football was great. Missed that the last few years, the best part is seeing all our kids now playing. Thanks Mike for putting that together.
So many things to be thankful for...friends and family undoubtedly top the list!

Woot woot! The only thing better than winning is seeing little Lyla and how complete she makes your family. What a great Thanksgiving.
11/23 was my late Dad's birthday, so that's where the guess came from. As a kid Thanksgiving would occasionally fall on his birthday. I always think of him at Thanksgiving and now on Lyla's birthday too. Congrats Mike and Jina!

Good stuff Mikey. We've made similar changes and man I miss my truck something fierce, but not as much as I love driving a car that's paid for. We're still making changes, but it feels good to do away with stuff you really don't need in the first place.
I'm guessing that like us you also save some $$ money in gas by driving the Solara vs the truck?

The last few weeks are the hardest, hang in there. The good news is you're as ready as you can be. Once Lyla gets here, the rest goes away.

Fatherhood and heartbreak, they go hand in hand, but it's a beautiful heartbreak. I think it must be close to what God feels about us.

in Harold Ramis Confirms Ghostbusters 3 Is In The Works on Pop Critics
It's not like GB2 was a cinematic masterpiece, in fact it was pretty bad. GB1 still a classic, but there's no need to bring back this franchise, if you can call it that. Some movies just don't need sequels, let alone a third 20yrs later.
It's been said before on this site, that with all the amazing novels out there that would make great movies, why Hollywood continues to recycle old junk is beyond me. I still agree with that line of thinking. Let's have more Gone Baby Gone and less GB3.
Count me out on this one.

They can't think of any new, original stories to make. They are not sure anymore if new and original stories will "show me the money". Solution, let's start a sequel recycle revolution. So yeah, we should live with it.
Regardless, we're going to watch it.

in The Sarah Connor Chronicles Recap: “Samson and Delilah” on Pop Critics
As good as season 1 was, the first episode for season 2 left me wondering if this show didn't already jump the shark. Opening scene aside, this episode was mostly a mess.
Cameron's bad, no wait she's good, she loves John, don't kill her. Puleeeeeze!
To make matters worse John brings her back.
And what's with Sarah? Does she only know how to drive with her foot pressed all the way to the floor making it difficult not to hit other cars at every intersection. Seriously my 13 yr old could drive better than that.
The only redeeming part of the show is Shirley Manson's character and where they may take that plotline. Based upon this weeks episode, it had better be good, I'm giving this show one more week to show me something or it's off the DVR.

Wow! I thought the Shirley Manson storyline was the uninteresting part. I've always been partial to the family plus Brian Austin Green. Except, of course, for John's brooding teenage ways.

in The annoying JC Penny’s Breakfast Club commercial on Pop Critics
Hadn't really given it much thought until you posted this. Still love the song and the movie and all things being equal I'd prefer they not make dumb commercials based on good movies, songs, whatever. I guess this is just another example of bad marketing. Thank God for TiVo.

in School update on A Mike Life
Awesome news Mikey! I'm sure it feels like it's taken forever to get here. Like any marathon, it's much less important when you finish as long as you finish.
As you move into parenthood I imagine this will give an impetus for preparing Elyla for college early and instilling the importance of good grades etc. Since both Deb and I took the long road to our degrees we've definitely tried to instill these things in Chad and we will no doubt do the same with Evie.
Congrats to you!

in The Friday Question - Reading on Pop Critics
I just finished Simple Genius by David Baldacci, whose work I really like. Over vacation I'll be starting Invisible Prey, the latest Prey novel by John Sandford. I also have the 'I am legend' short story to work on a couple of others...it's good to have options. Sorry no graphic novels or knitting books at the moment, but you never know.
