One of my favorite parts of checking my blog stats, besides making sure my three fans are still there in spite of my failure to update this thing on a regular basis (thanks guys!) is seeing what search terms lead traffic to my site. Here is the latest disturbing glimpse into the minds of the people of Internetland. Behold:
- “cat pushing body“
- “cat with face pushed against glass” Okay, this? Freaks me out a little. What causes a person to want to see this? No, seriously. What? And, do I really write about my little beasts so often that my blog shows up in searches for cats? Cripes.
- “bacon inocent x” I haven’t clue what this person could be searching for. Any ideas? How awesome is it that my blog shows up in searches about bacon though? That is right and good and proper and makes me very happy.
- “i’ve upped my attitude, now up yours!” This one is my favorite. I’m totally stealing it and am going to use it tomorrow. At least once.
- “naughty stained glass” Heh.
These are search terms have shown up in the last week. I don’t even want to wade through the crap people have searched for since I started this. I could be there for days.
Daily Weekly Monthly Bi-Monthly Update
I’ve been busy going to Maui, parking my butt by the pool, drinking a bunch fruity alcohol drinks, lifting heavy stuff, eating good stuff, eating some not-so-good but really yummy stuff, painting, working, having a blast and NOT updating my blog. Sigh.
One of my favorite parts of parking my butt by the pool is all the time it leaves me to read. Usually I go in for floofy stuff like Charlaine Harris’ Southern Vampire Mysteries but this time I managed to stretch my brain a little with Gary Taubes’ new “Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It” and it is amazing. I am planning to write a review of that and yes I actually typed that with a straight face. Don’t let’s hold our breaths for that, is what I’m saying. Just go get the book because it’ll take everything you think you know about diet and exercise and how both of those things affect the way our bodies manage adipose tissue and turn it on its head. It’s an easy read and fascinating.

My mom is in Maui right now for 2 months! Where are you at? We went last summer to their time share and it was AMAZING. So.very.jealous.

We were in Kaanapali, and got back last week. Sad for me! What’s funny is that I have a friend who left yesterday for Maui, and in spite of just having been there I am outrageously jealous of her right now! There is no cure for Maui. Only more Maui.
Where were you?

We stayed at Kaanapali Beach Resort, I think. Right across from the Star Market and Java Jazz.
Okay. Want to hear a crazy story? Or at least small world story? My sister sent me a link for someone on Twitter that she said was a crazy combo of me and her. A painter that is Paleo/Crossfit. And it was you! On the same day I posted on your blog! Crazy, right? My sister is an artist in New Hampshire and I’m in Chicago and we both found you in different ways on the same day. WOW.

WOW! That’s amazing! What’s your sister’s name? I’ll have to check out her work. It’s funny, there are a few artists/paleoish-crossfitters around, all of whom I’ve found on Facebook, at least so far. It’s always fun to connect with them.
Love your contributions on PaleoHack, by the way. You’re always so thoughtful and helpful, and your story is inspiring. What a transformation you’ve made! I’m glad you’ve found my humble, rarely-updated blog. Haha!
You were right down the road from us. We were at the Westin Villas right there. When can I go back??? *sobs*

My mom has a timeshare there for 2 months each year. I’ve only been invited once. We did a girls trip last summer. She’s there now (another weird connection, you were in Kaanapali when my mom was!)
My sister’s art is at http://www.nicolecaulfield.com – she’s an art teacher and a colored pencil artist. I think she’s amazing!
Thank you for the compliments. I’ve been involved in a lot of weightloss/nutrition type boards and really enjoy interacting with people this way.
I am always checking people’s profiles trying to find more people in Chicago. The boys I have here don’t seem to be interested in a meetup.
