Hah--somehow the bacon/latke irony had not hit me until you mentioned that! Well, their "original" sandwich is pastrami. Though they also do an apple/brie one. In any case, delicious.

I have been trying to work out more so far this year (and doing pretty well at it!). I have not gone and worked out yet tonight (and it's 8:30PM, and I still need to clean the house for the housecleaner?) but it's because I got distracted and did my taxes tonight? Yay? Also, I'm not sure how the hell I earned LESS money in 2013 than in 2012. I guess the signing bonus in 2012 made more of a difference than two months at a much lower salary, and a minuscule raise for 2013? But I'm also proud because I put almost $5K more in my 401k (which, uh, needed it) than in 2012. So, go that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oooh, apple brie latke sandwich sounds amazing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But I'm also proud because I put almost $5K more in my 401k (which, uh, needed it) than in 2012.

That's how you made less, right? Are 401K contributions pre-tax? Now I forget.

Thanks for reminding me to contribute to my Roth IRA, Natter.

My mother-in-law is on the phone. She's been diagnosed with breast cancer.

NOT COOL, UNIVERSE.

Happy Year of the Horse!

And speaking of Horse Nation does a "Best of Craig's List" post once a week - this week's involves a picture of the horse for sale at pasture with a Bactrian Camel (I think: Dromedaries are the single hump variety, right?)

Also, the blogger at My Shetland has rescued some starving baby Shetland Ponies. So fluffy!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

In some counter-cancer news, my friend who had thyroid surgery, due to tumors that were thought to be cancerous, got her biopsy results. No cancer!

My doc called this morning to check on me and I told him I still had a lot if pain. He said today will be bad pain wise but I should see improvement starting tomorrow. He doesn't want to prescribe anything heavier because then I'm a fall risk and he does want me up and moving occasionally. I gotta suck it up and get through the day. Fun.
