So I peed my pants today and thought of Billy Maddison & the Pee pants scene... [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoD9LCGsjas] Okay, I didn't really pee my pants (even though it's super cool). But I did get disgustingly sweaty on my ran today and looked like I peed my pants. I was super ... Read More about Pee Pants

I'm a "G"… and I'm not Fat.
So it's official, I'm a "G" with my new 3G-phone from T-mobile. I think it's officially called the My Touch, but whatev. I am normally not a fancy phone girl, but the blog has been blowing up and I'm so far from the fam so I thought it'd get one. I am excited:) Now I can email, blog and tweet it ...

Pick Your Poison
I've decided that if my worst vices are diet soda and frozen yogurt I shouldn't be so hard on myself. I always feel this extreme guilt while drinking Diet Coke (maybe Catholic guilt?). Boo to guilt. *Let's note that I do eat frozen yogurt guilt free :) Ha. Anyways, one soda a day isn't going to ... Read More about Pick Your Poison

Don't tell Ben
I have an exciting announcement!!!! I am dying to tell ya, but I kinda should tell Ben first - No, it's not what you think - it's better :) Hint: I kinda acted on a whim, but life is short.

West meets East
Good Morning friends :) Ben (who is on CA time) called me last night and I didn't end up going to sleep until after 11pm! I know that's not late for some of you, but I am an "eight hour a night" girl all the way! So I am once again dragging this morning. Today is a Rest Day - this means I should do ...

Early, early dinner
I went home on my lunch to check on dinner. I was making Spanish Rice in the crockpot for the first time and wanted to make sure that I put enough water in it so it didn't burn. When I checked on it 3 hours later - it was already done! I could have had dinner at noon :) I put brown rice, diced ... Read More about Early, early dinner
Sleep running
Instead of sleep walking I was "Sleep Running" this morning. So. Tired. I have been wanting oatmeal, but kinda picked the wrong day to make it since I am super hot now. It's finally getting hot here and it was super humid this morning. It might be overnight oats (which I just kinda like) or cold ... Read More about Sleep running

Lick the pan
I made a great peanut sauce today and basically licked the pan clean. Note to self: Make sure the pan is no longer hot before you lick it! Dinner was ww Noodles and broccoli in this delicious sauce.

Knotty by nature
I don't know if it's the humidity or what but my hair has been getting ridiculously knotted on my runs :( This Saturday it was REALLY BAD and I ripped a bunch of my hair while trying to get the knots out. IÂ was so frustrated! I braid my hair in a pony tail to prevent knots, but that isn't even ... Read More about Knotty by nature

Four Fast
Finally I had a good run! It's been a long time since I've had a good run and I've been getting very discouraged. I only did 4 miles today, but they were speedy (for me) and I felt good :) I had a bowl of Kashi GL Crunch and Flax Plus topped with raisins and almond milk. From past experience I know ...

Gathering sticks
I feel guilty that I sometimes think I need certain material things. I think it's ridiculous that Target has so much crap and we are almost trained to want this stuff! That being said, I went to Target today to get some stuff for the apartment. As I was driving home (feeling guilty) I realized in my ... Read More about Gathering sticks
Leave it to IHOP
Sorry I didn't post last night...we got home at 1:30am and didn't get to bed until after 2! Then, we had to wake up early to unload the truck and get it back to the rental place. Oh, and the trip all the way to NJ was kind of a bust because the fam had recently had a yard sale and sold most of their ... Read More about Leave it to IHOP
Where am I?
I love exploring new areas on foot, but it does get kinda frustrating during a long run when I hit a dead-end in the path and have to turn around and find another route - over and over! I am happy to report that it is pretty cool for July (maybe it's always like this in July and I'm used to CA?) and ... Read More about Where am I?
