eHarmony.ca Commercials

eHarmony has kindly given me permission to post two of the eHarmony.ca commercials now airing in Canada. Chris and I were filmed in Philadelphia this past December for a few of the shots along with two other awesome couples. Don’t blink, or you might miss me and Chris in our little happy couple cameos! (And [...]

1/10/08 Log: Down with the Babydoll!

Sleepy morning for me. I woke up at 6 am, took care of the kitty litter, took the trash out before the truck came by, then fell back asleep until 8:30. Whoops! Off-topic to my fellow cat-loving readers: Does anyone else’s cat impatiently wait directly behind you when you are scooping, and immediately step inside [...]

Cutest Fitness T-Shirt EVER

Sigh….Sometimes I really regret swearing off all new clothing purchases until June 2008…. For those of you who have not made a “no new clothes” vow, you can get this hilarious design (“Runnin’ Rhino”) over at Threadless.

My Mini Personality Profile!

I found this little personality profile widget from eHarmony pretty amusing, particularly since the full-length eHarmony profile was responsible for matching me up with my husband three years ago. I thought my Extroversion score was unusually high since I’ve always considered myself an introvert, but check out my Emotional Stability score…. That’s right — no [...]
