I have a post all written up in my Blackberry for Boobquake today. Unfortunately, I’m so bone exhausted that the idea of emailing it over, copying and pasting it on the blog, then uploading the photo just about kills me. I can’t even haul off my ass to take a shower, eat a real meal ...

I’m back after a weekend of no computers, minimal cell phone use and all that jazz. Being back feels like a nasty jolt and has me exhausted all over again. Not to mention, the residual tiredness from last week, the low blood pressure (my legs are still going numb randomly), nausea and funky stomach has ...

I will admit to being inflexible and punishing towards myself in training occasionally most of the time. Its quite a strange trait because I’ve learned long ago to cut everyone else slack but I still don’t and won’t cut myself any slack. Years of ADHD-ish behavior has taught me that I lack the focus needed ...

Don’t wear clothes you like while working on a bike. If possible, its probably better not to wear a top at all but considering that I’m a chick and my neighbor’s estate agent is pottering around inside his house, it might not go down very well with the rest of the world. I feel terribly ...

Yesterday, I spent roughly 8 hours on my bike riding 100km around Singapore. I sorta feel ready to tackle Bike Asia now. Not the distance, mind you, but the amount of time on a bike saddle. I got around to thinking about why I do this. Run the distance, ride the distance. Its sort of ...

Loves, Chloe has been sadly neglected lately. I’ve been so busy with everything, Amelie has been snapping all the interesting things I see because there’s simply no time or space to drag Chloe out. Anyway, after yesterday morning’s exercise in masochism, Alex and I ran out to meet Pat and the ever adorable Buddy at ...

Ya’ll, this is gonna get me so much hits from the weird perverts who trawl Google. Which according to my Wordpress stats board, there are quite a number turning up on my blog from the…erm… more alternative search terms.Is your pooch a little bit lonely when you leave it alone at home? Perhaps Lucky hasn’t been ...

Alrighty, I’ve caught up with my Project 52 shots at last. Yes, I realise that I am very late, missing out three whole weeks of Project 52 and I promise I will make a better effort to not do it again. But seriously, hereabouts, when it rains, it freaking pours. Anyway, I’ve gotten my act ...

Today, I did my first 18km run. And no shit, when training books tell you nutrition is important, they weren’t kidding. So here’s the fun facts pared down to absolute simplicity. Your body’s primary fuel while exercising is glycogen. When glycogen stores deplete, it starts running on blood glucose. Blood glucose, however, also feeds your ...

You know my life has taken something of a turn when I spend my time obsessing over the perfect bike shorts and stuff like energy gels. It can’t be helped, I was born obsessive. If there is a problem that sorta niggles at me, I can’t rest until I’ve cooked up the perfect solution to ...

It really started in 2006 when I started riding my mountain bike properly and someone mentioned the word ‘tights’ . Right there and then, I developed a problem with the idea of cycling tights. For one, mountain biking, to me, is a gung-ho kind of activity, not the sort of thing I want to link to ...

Well, erm, hellooo. I know, I know, its been ages. Again. There are a few reasons why I've been on haitus. The biggest being that I've taken up racing duathlons and other fun stuff and well, usually am far too tired to write recipes and shoot pictures. The other is that I seem to have run into a wall with regards about what to write both on this blog and on Alexisthetiny. …

Post run fuel:When I was little, our family doctor was a really old school guy. Not a guy I remember fondly, he enjoyed pushing my buttons of extreme needle phobia by bugging me ALL the time about some blood test or another and telling me that the pain I felt didn’t really exist. He’d probably ...

I first posted that picture of a Peeps S’mores on another blog. I’d found it on a blog called Miss Ginsu and loved it. I mean, who doesn’t love abusing pastel colored marshmallow Easter animals?? EEH?!?! Fortunately, for all you would-be PETA activists out there, Jason’s decided not to sell Peeps this year as part ...

On a note, I believe Electra’s relationship with me was jinxed from the very beginning. First, I had to wait and wait and wait for her tires to turn up (650CC tires aren’t easy or cheap to come by, ya’ll), then she wasn’t fitted right, then I fell sick with a deadly cold/sinus/ear infection (ok, ...

The recent hullabaloo over cyclist safety has me slightly annoyed. Not because I have anything against cyclist safety. God knows, I’m probably one of the most grateful people when I make it home unscathed and alive on my bike because of my sensory problems. I’m also extremely angry when a motorist ...

The internet and blogs work in amazing and insane ways. It was through our blogs that Ben and I got to know each other almost two years ago. He first left a comment on a blog post I wrote about displacement and in his comment, I knew I found someone who was of the same ...
