			<description>So yesterday, I started back up with my workout regime.  I think I am accepting that until I'm at certain level of comfortable living, my workout patterns may be checkered.  



I accept that I may only work out for 2 weeks regularly and take off for 2 months.  I accept that sometimes other things compete, but when i can do it - DOOOOO it.



So yesterday, I was full of energy.  Came home from sluggish - yucky brain drain work day and did 20 minutes of cardio and some lunges, and squats.  ...</description>

2 women had to be hospitalized after a brazilian bikini wax that led to a serious infection.  They filed a lawsuit 

  



In Essence mag, they reported the incident and suggested asking salon / spa if they are re-using the wax. 



New Jersey had initially banned the brazillian wax because of this incident, but in Essence, they said the ban was lifted.

			<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I went to the dentist for my annual cleaning. 
<br />

<br />
I was told (among other things) that I need to switch to a soft brush, or a power brush...because brushing too hard can wear down the gums (thin them out) and weaken the whole bone structure around the teeth.   
<br />

<br />
They said that one of those battery operated brushes are fine, but I don't have to scrub hard with them.

I'm just sharing this because I was always a heavy handed brusher]]></description>

(CNN) -- The small fruit has the color of a cranberry, the shape of an almond and tastes like a flavorless gummy. 



 

The sweetening effects, which have triggered &quot;flavor tripping&quot; parties, last about 15 to 30 minutes.

Yo, I drank some of this (not even a whole can) over the weekend *to work on Cypher*, and was wired.  My body felt wierdly sluggish afterwards.  My sleep cycle is just now getting back to normal.  I had a crazy dream where I just kept laughing to the point I woke myself up - still laughing.  Couldn't remember what was so funny.



Couldn't remember where I parked my car either...seemed like my memory was affected too.

Dr. Paul and Dr. Miguel Escobar aren’t talking about just suppressing HIV – they’re talking about destroying it permanently  ...</description>

- read the holy texts

- visit this message board (when you see me here a lot...I am escaping from work...or procrastinating about something...ya'll help me
