Aloha

Maui is hot (both in terms of temperature AND general bossy-ness).  Love it.  I don’t even mind the humidity, which adds 8 inches in horizontal volume to my pookie hair.  I’ve been having issues getting on track with the time changes.  Passing out by 10 pm, napping throughout the day (so not like me), while still waking up at 6 am (more like me).  My body is so confused. If a picture could summarize my trip thus far, the above photo is a pretty good depiction.  Here are a few more:   We did a… Read more >

Pack that a$$ up

I think my carry-on bag weighed more than I do. Allow me to explain (with photos): Bar-ville, USA. No such thing as over-packing when you’re flying from the east coast to the middle of the pacific ocean…right? But then, after piling my bag with dried fruit, clifs & laras, I freaked out and worried I didn’t have enough food so then I added more. And then more. Of course, I STILL ended up buying tons more at LAX because I’m so type A, I think there’s no such thing as being TOO prepared…but I’ll get… Read more >

Grassy-ass, AMAZING Grass

Wow, Saturday went from sunny and nice to rainy and gross in a matter of seconds.  Good thing my 10K was early!  I woke up at 7 am to get ready – and it was already warm and sunny out! I knew exactly what I wanted before the race… You see, a while ago I received a HUGE box of goodies from the wonderful people at Amazing Grass (thanks Brandon)!!! So I knew the chocolate SuperFood powder would be the perfect pre-race fuel.  I combined it with a shot of iced coffee (leftover from yesterday’s… Read more >

Readers make me happy, google reader does not

Today was one of those “breath, take a step back, and count to ten” kind of days.  Initially, I started my blog, as nothing more than a fun, therapeutic way for me to journal my attempt at living a healthy, semi-balanced life – including everything from gym time to cooking successes & messes, as well as my random thoughts and musings along the way…if others happen to enjoy reading, even better!  Now, I have grown to ADORE blogging, and it’s all because of you guys!  Who ever would have thought that sharing aspects of my… Read more >

Techno-tart

I think it’s fairly obvious I’m not the most computer savvy person out there…but with the help of Sarah, Mara, and Caroline, I managed to make the much needed (and long overdue) switch to WordPress. Finally.  I have been putting it off forever, because the idea all these <?/.> things really really scare me. So now I can continue to sort it out while in Hawaii.  Am I a total freak for thinking vacation is the perfect time for a blog make-over?  Nothing screams relaxation like formatting and codes and DNS settings. Basically Thursday was… Read more >
