    I dream of being athletic…

    This morning I woke up and thought I should probably buy a tennis skirt … you know for all the times that I play tennis this summer. I have previously found some great deals on 6pm.com. Its a pretty great site that has great deals on a variety of items – ranging from your black…

  • I'm lazy

    I'm lazy

    I’ve been a lazy blogger recently. I apologize. I know this won’t help but here is a picture of my new Asics running shoes. I went for my first run in them today and it was pretty great. I’ve tried to get back into running the last few weeks… and a new pair of sneaks…

  • Interesting Innovation

    Interesting Innovation

    I saw this article on Fast Company’s website about a new innovation in the coffee shop world. Pretty interesting. I think the stuff that will hold it back will be that companies will be reluctant to give up their brand image being so clear. As much as Starbucks likes you to save the environment by…

  • The World is all a Twitter

    The World is all a Twitter

    I find the concept of Twitter to be a bit confusing at times to be honest. I joined Twitter originally last Spring (2009) and was so freaked out by my lack of control over the information flow that I quit. I like to manage my digital identity and I felt like I couldn’t get a…

  • Small thoughts…

    Small thoughts…

    I’ve blogged recently about my new found love of Greek Yogurt. I’ve also admitted that I have no preference and little to zero knowledge about how to buy yogurt. You’d think after stating this twice (if not more), I would have done some research. Nope. Well today, I’m in Philadelphia and I stopped at a…

  • Ponder this…

    Ponder this…

    I’m sitting on the train right now and they have just passed out snack mix. I know for certain that that woman across from me does not like almonds or the little weird nutty cracker strips. I also know that she likes all the parts of the mix that I don’t like. Thankfully, we both…

  • Everybody needs goals

    Everybody needs goals

    I have a significant soft spot for statistics. Wait, let me be clear. I have a soft spot for reading and reporting statistics – not the statistics that tormented me my sophomore year of college. So, when you have access to the code of a website you can get install Google Analytics code on the…

  • … and then my friend came to visit

    Yesterday I was lucky enough to have a special visitor at my apartment for a few hours. My friend’s Dave and Lara have this incredible dog named Dwight. He was an awesome dog when I first met him more than a year ago, and an even better dog now that he has only 3 legs.…

  • Lost Kitty 🙁

    I’m sure you’ll tired at some point of me talking about my building and the daily events. But I probably wouldn’t stop, even if you told me. Yesterday there was a lost cat in my building and I was so taken aback by its presence that I went and got my flipcam so I could…
