I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

ION, OMG I have found the best chiropractor in the WORLD. Very worthy of ASSCAPS! She has every fun chiropractic toy in the world (ultrasound, massage chairs, electronic swivelly table, heat lamps, and more!) and uses them for no extra charge, and therapeutic massage is par for the course. She also has a great sense of humor and is very easy-going. Oh, and she's covered by my insurance! And when I inevitably use up my visits, she's very affordable. And she's Romanian, so she has a cute accent. And her receptionist is the nicest person in the world.

If any LAista is looking for a chiropractor, I cannot recommend her highly enough. I was in hideous pain last week, but she gave relief almost immediately. Love.

You're KILLING me here.

Are you coming to the F2F? I will bring you Taylor Ham.

My cousins take a bunch home to Illinois after their trip down the shore every summer.

His hair is all thick and white and sort of gorgeous. The man has aged well.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The deli down the block from my office has a sign offering "Tayler pork roll." I keep wanting to tell them that it's wrong.

Because books.

I spent so much time at Denny's that I wound up hanging out with staffers off hours. Also, I used to keep a checklist of all the ones I had visited.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

My mother had a bad meal at a Denny's when we were kids and decided the whole chain was evil. She used to hiss and say boo Denny's whenever we passed on, even if it was one in a completely different state.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

HA! Denny's! I get weird high school flashbacks whenever I even contemplate going to one.

I remember in DC we used to have a Steak and Egg that was 24 hours and in walking distance. But man, you had to be desperate for that.

24 Diners are now lost on me. Early AM diners? Totally all over that. Like the Bob's on Riverside with the old time sign. They might be 24 hours but they are definitely open at 4 AM. As is Astro's on Fletcher in Silver Lake. We used to have breakfast every friday AM at 5:30.

I'm on day 3 of my reintro to yoga. It's like a whole new thing now. But I think I have a whole new body too (just not in a good way).
