And then I got rear-ended
Started the day by waking up early…
Fed dog
Got ready and rocked my second-day haircut
Hit the farmer’s market and scored some fresh veggies and a giant bouquet of flowers
Took Callie to the dog park, talked to dog people, wore Callie out
Went to the outlets, scored two silky tanks and a dress for <$40
Stopped by Nike outlet and got Mark some stuff because I’m the best...

The running guilt cycle
For about 3-4 weeks I was running almost every day and for one reason or another it was insanely easy to wake up and run in the morning or to throw on my running shoes and take a run after work.
These past 2-3 weeks…not so much. I’ve run about 1-2 times a week and I barely had the energy to do that. It’s not that I’m having trouble with the running part, I’m having...
It's Wednesday
and I stumbled across this gif and I couldn’t not post it.
Wanna know the secret between getting perfect...

Oh - I thought you were talking to the dog.

Long day gets even longer
Cue a glass of wine and my laptop, toggling between work emails and business school case studies.

Today is my Friday
Tomorrow I leave to drive up to the Wisconsin Dells to spend the weekend with my family - my ENTIRE family. As in all…
21 cousins
10 aunts and uncles
4 in-laws and in-laws to be
3 baby second cousins
2 grandparents
2 parents
2 sisters
AND no husband
Mark can’t get out of his dental school classes to make it up, so I’m driving up by myself. Well, not all by myself because...

Question: Are any of the celebrity pre-marriage...
I know there isn’t some magical order of life events that has to happen to make it work, but it does seem that the celebrity order is typically:
get pregnant
get engaged
get married
divorce in 3-5 years
So, do you think these babies are planned and that’s just the cultural order of life events in Hollywood or do celebrities not know how birth control works?

I've overcommitted myself
Last night I sat in my second MBA class this week. For the first hour, going over the syllabus and class expectations, all I could think was: oh shit.
I knew that the summer courses were going to be rough, all the course work is basically doubled, with 16+ weeks of class being squeezed into 8. Basically one week of a regular semester class = 1 day of summer class.
Knowing that it would be a lot...
It’s Tuesday - here’s a video of Callie sleep-licking the carpet under my desk.
Why are all your bracelets on one arm?
Have you gotten questioned about your bracelet stacking?
I have. I feel like I can’t be the only one.
It’s usually a guy.
My response is typically: it’s a fashion thing.
Monday Check-In
thinking about: how odd it is to be working from home again - I’ve just come off of an entire month in the office. It’s so quiet at home.
obsessing over: sewing. I’ve made two more dresses (preview of the tank dress I completed this weekend below) and I have one waiting to be finished and a tank that just needs some trim added. I can’t stop, I’m turning into one of...
