Shaq has a 30’ bed. Obvi.
mom: holy cow, how do you get blankets that big?
dad: easy. you buy a small country like Indonesia and have them make you blankets.

on working from home
Today i’m “working from home.” i legit did 2 phone interviews for an article i’m supposed to be writing and i’ve sent a few e-mails, but there are just too many other things i’d rather be doing right now. Besides the fact that i’m at my parents house which is not conducive to thinking about work, i’ve got presents to wrap! and fingernails to paint!...
more birthdays, more favorite people
Happy Birthday to the J to my C :)
i don’t think i would have made it through college without you! Can’t wait to see you next week and you just let me know when you’re moving back up here so we can have more mardi gras parties and make more Yankee fans cry hang out.
Love you!
Silver Fox
I’m currently en route to celebrate the birthday of my bestest friend in the whole world. We go way back. (please note the jean jumpsuit!)
When we were 5 we liked to play dress-up.
Which apparently we still enjoyed at the age of 25.
We also liked to make crazy faces and juggle.
Today, we just make crazy faces.
i love you, Rah! Happy birthday you silver fox, you!

– How much would you pay for an audio book called Dustin Pedroia’s Travel Stories? But hey, the foot’s all better!

soooo glad the foot is healed! and what i wouldn’t give to have seen this happen…
now that we got the uber awkward “holiday lunch” out of the way, its homeward bound! NY here i come
cruel, cruel world
Earlier this week we got an e-mail from HR saying that we had the Monday after New Year’s off. We always get the week between Christmas and New Year’s off and because New Year’s Day fell on a weekend we were supposed to get the previous Friday off, but we already get it off… blah blah blah… therefore no work on Monday. Yippeee!! i was soo stoked - another day to...
confession time
i’ve never seen Love Actually. i’m hoping to remedy this within the next week.

These girls

“i just found a wookie coat for your mother, but it’s more of an elegant...”
– Dad, calling from the mall where he’s been wandering around for hours. He then proceeded to yell halfway across Macy’s to my mom “but don’t you want to be a jedi?”
weekend recap
This past weekend was one of the best in a long time! It was quite the mix of events, but just what the doctor ordered.
Did a little crossfit on Friday night and knocked almost 3 minutes off my WOD time from the beginning of the On Ramp. Whoop whoop go me! Then the roomies and i had a pajama party :)
Saturday was filled with running outside, finally getting a haircut and a little xmas shopping...
early morning serenade
This morning at the gym the old lady across the room on the elliptical was singing so loud! i could hear her over the music in my headphones. i know we were the only crazies in there at 5:30am, but geez, take it down a decibel or two.
“I think my heart was in Boston. I have a 6-year-old son, and I think he was a...”

Stop trying to melt my cold heart.

you know how some days you just have really nice...
today is one of those days. Gold star on penmanship over here.
“The other schools must have some real assholes.”
– Dad’s reaction to my college softball coaches winning conference coaching staff of the year. Let’s just say i hated those ladies with a fiery, fiery passion. Pretty much the worst humans on the planet.
on will power
i have been successfully avoiding the baskets of holiday cookies and brownies and candies that keep showing up in the office kitchen… until today. A company that we work with for e-mail campaigns sent over the most delectable chocolate-covered almonds and peanuts and the like and i just can’t say no. Not today.

crumbsandcreativity:
There are few things in life I love more than really good soup. There is something so comforting about a steaming bowl of soup on a freezing cold evening. My husband’s favorite vegetable is broccoli, so we make it a lot in our house. Last winter I was trying to come up with interesting…

It appears the Red Sox will obtain Adrian Gonzalez from the Padres for RHP Casey Kelly, 1B Anthony Rizzo and CF Rey Fuentes. If that proves to be the case — and nothing is final quite yet — the Red Sox will have done quite well to retain Jose Iglesias and Ryan…
