Comments on: New York, New York http://pastaqueen.com/blog/2008/08/new-york-new-york/ You'll laugh you ass off. (I did.)

(I know, way late on the post, yada yada I wonder if you still read these?) I just wanted to say you look SO beautiful in your pictures. And not beautiful like "that model/actress is so beautiful" because to me they don't come across as real. But you just always have such a glow about you - it's no wonder men say hi to you on the street! And even with your chronic headaches, I am amazed that you continue to accomplish so much. I know you get this all the time, and maybe you get tired of it (or maybe not) but you really are a wonderful person (despite your left-leaning tendencies :P ) and you just look so amazing. I'm in the process of losing 90+ lbs and I hope I can look half as good as you do when I'm done. I can't wait to read both your books, and I am really enjoying catching up on your blog! Hi.

I am now (almost) in 'real time'. [I am not a slow reader, I also read and benefit from readers comments. Thanks to all.] I'll bet when you first starting blogging about your hard work to lose weight, you never imagined you would inspire so many ppl. Very cool to have become such a motivation for so many including myself. (thank you) I appreciate you sharing about your hard work over the years w/all of us, and all the while enduring those awful headaches! We can kind of forget about that and be amazed by all your hard work. PQ said- <i>"When I finally got on the airplane, some acronym wasn't working (CPU, APU? Maybe the FU?) so the air conditioning did not work on the tarmac. It was only when the engines took over power in the air that the air came on."</i> My son is an Aircraft Maintenance Technician, [he works on airplanes] and this made me laugh. I am trying to learn what it is that he talks about too. (I though the FU was funny..) Glad the APU worked in the air! =) haha And what is this about your Twitter Addiction?? You weren't so sure about it at the beginning, and now you are addicted. Grin. Again, I appreciate this site. Like another person who posted, I am planning to reward myself w/your book when I lose 30lbs. (that is only 2lbs away now, I want the book!)

And does he notice you're, like, on the TELEVISION? :) Enjoy! Oh, and I wonder if licking Rick Springfield would have cured your headache? Not scientific, but a GREAT excuse!

I am hoping you make it out to Portland, OR for a reading one of these days. I would most certainly be there. The interview was great and you looked terrific!

What did you think of Tasti D-Lite? I absolutely love it, though I recognize that it is still dessert and shouldn't be consumed daily as I used to be wont to do :) I’m sorry I wasn’t in NYC to get to meet you – hopefully you’ll be back soon!

Your poise and your confidence along with a fantastic sense of humor serve you well.(Ever think about being on television as a career?) You seemed completely comfortable being interviewed and we all love your success story. You didn't need the pants as a prop;in fact, I think the focus being more on you in person was much more riveting.All the best to you!!

(My guess is either an open-late Target [Collge Point, Queens, maybe] or the closest WalMart [dunno where that'd be].) Heck, in a city where you can get dinner, porn, and weed all delivered at your convenience, probably some delivery service could have hooked you up, too.
