Recovery Island: Photo Edition

Yeah, so, here is an all-photo episode of The Sonia Show …

Breast cancer club

Yeah, so, the first rule of breast cancer club is you talk about breast cancer club.
It’s kinda unavoidable.
When I first found the lump and was going through mammograms and ultrasounds, I didn’t really tell anyone. I didn’t want to worry people for nothing. I was so sure it was just a cyst. When I got [...]

Flip flopping on these flip flops

Yeah, so, this morning one of my coworkers was showing off his new flip flops. They are comfy flip flops AND a bottle opener!
I kinda don’t know what to think about that.
The Logical Girl in me thinks it is gross — sticking something to the bottom of your shoe that you are going to put [...]

Rube in the cube

Yeah, so, this is how silly my life in my cube has become: They refilled the vending machine today, and I got all bummed because there are no CornNuts.
CORRRNNNUTTSSS! [clutching throat]
I’m serious. This is quite a disappointment to me. It’s probably for the best. I don’t really need to be eating CornNuts.
Today, my friend and [...]

‘Unfortunately, you are that table’

Yeah, so, my employer is all about company pride, so they are having all of us order sweatshirts, T-shirts, etc., with the company logo on it.
I didn’t want some ugly shirt or sweatshirt that I would just stick in a drawer and only wear to bed, so I was quite careful with my ordering. I [...]

Breakroom mysteries

Yeah, so, I was in the breakroom and I took a gander at the vending machine. Usually, I steer clear of the vending machine. It’s filled with sugar, and I don’t need help being hyper. I must confess that I have, on two separate occasions, bought some CornNuts.
CORNNUTS! [Grabs throat and keels over]
So anyway, I [...]

Weight and see

Yeah, so, I’m feeling like a complete jerkstore.
Some coworkers in my office are doing a weight loss challenge, and they were kind enough to ask me to join. I politely declined, which made me feel like a real ass.
I tried to explain that I lost some weight last year, and I feel like I’m at [...]

Everyone’s a TV critic …

Yeah, so, sometimes I put a little too much thought into television.
This morning, I was chatting with some coworkers about “American Idol.” I went on this rant about the new rule, which allows the judges to have veto power. It went something like this:
“I think giving the judges veto power is a bad move. The [...]

The secret vegetarian strikes back

Yeah, so, I went to lunch with my two office buddies today and, just to prove to them that I am not a secret vegetarian I ordered a big, fat burger at Barney’s with a side order of curly fries.
Shhhh, don’t tell anyone, but here’s the thing: Barney’s had some really tasty-looking garden burgers on [...]

The secret vegetarian strikes again

Yeah, so, today’s lunch of brown rice and green beans has added fuel to the office rumor that I’m a secret vegetarian.
I walked into the breakroom to warm up my lunch.
Coworker: “Is there any meat in there?”
Me: “Ummm, no. But I eat meat I swear!”
Coworker: “I think you are a liar. Just admit you are [...]
