SO, I had to re-do my marathon training plan so as not to stress out my achilles tendon issues. I haven’t felt anything in 2 weeks, so hopefully I’m not getting too aggressive with training. It also means I won’t do as many long runs as I would’ve liked to prep for this thing–and if [...]
I interned at Seattle Children’s Theatre 10 years ago, and I was there when they premiered a play called, “When I Grow Up, I’m Going to Get Some Big Words.” (a quote from MLK,jr when he was a little kid). I loved it & saw it over and over again (not common when it comes [...]
This always happens to me on a three day weekend. I plan to get up Sunday morning to do one of my long workouts as usual, and then I think–well, tomorrow is a holiday, why don’t I just do it then? As many workouts as I do, you won’t believe how extremely easy it is [...]
So, I’m not a very consistent online dater, but I try it out when I’m not seeing anyone (and really put my best effort in this past summer to pretty mediocre results). I’ve never actually had a long term relationship that started online, so my heart is not fully in it–but now that most of [...]
There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.
There are multiple posts I want to write, but I’ve got to get on my bike before too many cars start showing up on the road–so we’ll keep it to triathlons for now. But I promise there are more interesting entries in the works.

Well, it’s the day after X-mas, and luckily, my vacation is only halfway over. I don’t get to see ALL the family every Christmas these days (too many of us, too spread out), but I was totally excited to spend Christmas with my brothers, nephew, niece, and parents–and today a visit from more aunts, uncles, [...]
Yes, it was our new home’s first big party! Hooray! I LOVE house parties, way more than bars, clubs, etc, etc. I love the coziness of them, and a holiday party is my second favorite (I really love those summer bashes with BBQ & margaritas). I have the best roommates ever. We all pitched in, [...]
It’s one of my favorite times of year (besides the months of May-August, oh those long summer days…). I welcome the holiday cheer for one month out of the year (about as much as I can stand). I’m a fan of all things holiday decor, and I’m really excited to actually have a home this [...]
