This past Monday the odometer on my car hit 88, 888 miles. That seems monumental right? I don’t remember many of the other “historic” turns of the odometer, but I do remember the exact moment that I hit 77,777. It was August 23, 2009. I was just about to finish my summer internship in New…
It’s Monday and the end of a busy travel day. I have a lot of personal goals this week that I’d like to accomplish… but here is a quick summary of my weekend. Since everyone loves bullet points, I’m going to use them. If you don’t like bullet points, leave my blog immediately. (Actually please…
Do you ever feel like your balance is just “off”? That’s how I’ve felt this week. Just like I was off balance. I mean there are actual examples of this. On Monday (I think it was Monday), I fell over in the elevator unprovoked. Yes, this is 100% true. Despite being a relatively quite work…
My little brother doesn’t think I’ve very cool. I mean I’m fine with that. I’m 28 years old. I can take it. Almost. I can take not knowing all the cool YouTube videos. SNL sketches. Rappers. Etc. Things I can’t take? I can’t take him thinking that I’m weak. Ok, I can. But when he didn’t…

I have a love hate relationship with rain. It’s the bomb.com if you want to not feel guilty about cleaning out the Tivo in the middle of the day. It’s not the bomb.com if you are interested in being active … perhaps because you’ve been trapped in a cubicle all the damn day long. One…
You know it’s a good dinner when you plan to have leftovers … And then there are none. Win. Enter: Chicken Tagine. I’m not totally sure what made me grab for the slow cooker recipe on Sunday, especially since it was still about 70 degrees. But I did and it was awesome. How awesome? Like…
Oh Summer. There you go. You’ve just left me high and dry. It’s the first official day of Fall and I’m sitting on the couch with a warm cup of coffee. Outside, it’s this odd weather mix of fog and 72 degrees and super green Fall grass. Apparently, it’s going to pour rain for the…
I feel a little bit lost this week. Lost is a slightly dramatic word, but it applies none the less. The necklace that I’ve worn pretty much for the last 15 months or so…. broke on Monday morning. I’m not an “accessories person”. On a consistent basis, I wear one ring and my necklace. No…
Minot beach looking South over the weekend Oh hello there fall. You snuck right up on me and I’m not sure that I liked it. On the upside, I do love my fleece. The weather this past weekend was super nice for long neighborhood walks with coffee, which I most certainly took part in. There…
