Live Texting Wipe Out
Aunt K: Valentine's Wipe Out!
me: I love this show!
Aunt K: The smash cam - so good! I'm in Chicago checking work emails with Wipe Out. Perfect.
me: I am sitting in the apt laughing so loud by myself
Aunt K: Are we nerds?
me: i think so, but i'm totally OK with it
Aunt K: me too!!!
Gotta love long-distance TV watching with your super cool "nerdy" aunt

Got up super early
to hit up the before the sun crossfit WOD. i feel super productive and all that, but good lord i could not warm up my muscles - definitely a lighter than normal weight day for me and i could not for the life of me string together my double-unders. No coordination pre-6 a.m. How do you guys do it??
Apparently there is no category for me
So here i am perusing my Runner’s World supplement of 10 useful reports over lunch when i come across an article titled “Special Report for Women.” Awesome. Let’s do this. It’s supposed to give women-specific running tips from “adolescence through your golden years.”
Here’s my problem: i do not fall into the adolescence bracket nor do i fall into...

ain’t that the truth
let's play catch-up, shall we?
I’ve been pretty absent from tumblr lately so let me get you caught up on the craziness that has been my life for the past two weeks or so. In chronological order I:
Got my stupid wisdom tooth cut up and cut out on Friday the 13th and it knocked me on my ass for well over a week. Aside from the whole oral surgery thing i also caught a cold and essentially lost my voice so that was fun.
Got...

pet peeve of the day
Getting called “honey” in the workplace. Actually, getting called “honey” at all. ever. by someone who isn’t my mama. But, ESPECIALLY in the workplace.
why?
has it been almost a week since my tooth got chopped up and yanked out and i’m still in horrible awful pain?
And why did i have to get sick on top of recovering from oral surgery?
Why is all this going down now when i have big plans coming up and was hoping to get to crossfit this week? why?????
i'm alive!
swollen, in lots of pain and still a little loopy from the drugs, but awake! And with feeling in my face!
The roomie and the boy are so good to me. Minus the pictures that were taken.
is this real life?
Today’s my friday (hooray!) because i have to get a wisdom tooth yanked tomorrow (boo!)
And it’s the first time i’ve ever been knocked out which is terrifying.
Fingers crossed i 1. wake up and 2. my face isn’t permanently numb!
true confession tuesday
When i was in middle school i was a spelling bee nerd. Like, that one that you see on ESPN every year? Yeah, that was me. But, you guys, i can NOT win at Words with Friends or Scrabble or any other word/spelling-related game. I currently have 8 different games going and i am losing so bad in all of them. Not to mention the fact that the boyfriend has beaten me every single time we’ve played....

weekend recap
Friday night was for girls night with Jodi complete with delicious chicken curry, a bottle of wine, Bridesmaids and some arts ‘n’ crafts. A perfect night in catching up with a great friend.
Saturday was for getting up early and knocking out a bunch of errands including an oil change, emissions test, car wash and shoe shopping for the boy. Followed by a fancy cocktail party where we...
Went for a run in a t-shirt today. Outside. In January. So nice but so weird
true confession wednesday
Spent the night at the boy’s house. When i got up this morning to take a shower i decided it was too cold to wash my hair. i don’t have a blow dryer there and there was no way in hell i was going to venture outside with wet hair. Embracing my inner-dirtbag.

Typical
Driving to gma’s house in Buffalo in some pretty serious snow. Dad’s steering with his elbows so he can play the harmonica along with the radio. Totally normal.
