    Monday Musings And Ping Pong Parties.

    Happy Monday lovely world! Here comes some of my weekly gems with the exception of one archived gem but it's all relative, I promise.

    1. The uninteresting hallmarks of life.

    Leave your small talk at the door - a sentiment I have being trying to install for years. "The uninteresting hallmarks" of today hold little interest to those you are seated next to at a dinner party, so check in your weather predictions at the cloakroom.

    2. Bounce your way to a new addiction.

    I know I'm late to the ping pong party but I'm really happy to be here. The ping pong bug has replaced my mandane evening commute with a plea of just one more game guys. Head to a Bounce bar for a growing addiction similar to mine or Susan Sarandon's. Depending on your location ping pong bars are generally named Bounce or Spin - go figure - so hunt for one of those neon signs in a city near you.

    3. I am woman, hear me ROAR.

    HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS? How many elected women presidents and prime ministers have there been? Here's a 20 minute video about the best kind of female abundance.

    4. Ironman vs. Burger

    When my friend's husband set himself the mammoth goal of taking on the Ironman challenge, I thought each to their own, sent a virtual pat on the back and ate my carb centric burger. On reading this NYTimes article I wondered how much suffering - or burgers could I eat to disguise my non existent gym regime - could a human endure to accomplish five Ironman's in five days.

    5. Starving artistry.

    Are you creative? Are you hungry? Then ride the wave as David Lynch, Bjork and other artistic legends know how you feel. Here is their wisdom on the topic.
