Moderation->Balance->Laziness

9th May 2010 | 0 Comments

I am a pretty self-motivated person when it comes to exercise, especially when I have a race I’m training for, which I treat as a deadline. Like being prepared for a presentation, or taking a test, I think of my workouts as “homework” or “studying.” The more time I put into it beforehand, the better [...]


Off the sauce

28th September 2009 | 0 Comments

As part of my marathon preparation (eee-gahd, it’s about 1 month away), I’ve temporarily given up alcohol. Wine, more specifically, as I’m not much of a boozer or beer fan. This is hard for me, as I truly love curling up on the couch on a Friday night with a glass of Cabernet. I love [...]

Happy Saturday, everyone.
So, we’ve got a brand new hard drive and my trusty desk top is back and functional once again. Still working on re-installing a bunch of software, so the next few posts may be a bit skimpy on the photos. But, I promise to do my best.
In my last post I referenced a [...]

I know, I’ve been absent! But I have good excuses.
1. Computer-less vacation in San Diego! It was lovely, amazing, all sorts of good. Can’t wait to share my adventures with you.
2. Computer-less return to NYC! The hard drive on my desk top at home decided to call it quits. So now my only computer access [...]


Now a Major Motion Picture!

22nd August 2009 | 2 Comments

Ok, here’s another  confession. I’m currently reading “The Time Traveler’s Wife”…and really enjoying it. I know that’s not earth shattering, but I’m always slightly embarrassed to publicly read anything considered “chick lit,” especially if it’s stamped with big old “Now a Major Motion Picture!” starburst. But, it was recommended by a couple friends whose opinions [...]


Be-Twixed lunch and dinner

18th August 2009 | 2 Comments

It’s probably the most un-blogworthy part of my day, but I feel the need to tell you that I ate a Twix bar. There, I said it. I’ve started reading more and more food blogs and admiring all the beautifully lit portraits of organic produce and vegetable sandwiches on whole grain bread, and there aren’t [...]


A walk (or run) in the park

16th August 2009 | 0 Comments

I’m happy to report that I think I really did make a good use of my weekend. A good balance of yummy, high quality whole foods, exercise, necessary housework and quality time with my boyfriend (I’m working on a good blog name for him, as “boyfriend” seems so silly at this point).
As I’ve mentioned, I’m [...]
