Not Amused

July 6, 2010

Our air conditioning is broke again – and I am failing to see any sort of humor in the situation at all.  After a few days of unseasonably awesome weather last week, we are back to the hotter than hell days of summer.  And, according to the weatherman, it is supposed to get hotter later […]

Grillin’ and Chillin’ – Cookout Edition

July 5, 2010

After years of relying on our friends for cookouts, we decided to host our first bash at the new place.  Since we have been in the house, we have had people over for pizza and both of our families have come over for meals.  But, this was the first full on “event” – we had […]

Taking Things Off-Road

June 27, 2010

(Note: Thanks to Carla for letting me steal these pictures.  Or maybe I didn’t really ask and just took them – but, details.  I totally meant to take my camera along to document this, but, forgot it thanks to a barking dog who was very annoyed with me for leaving her alone.) Yesterday marked the […]

Goooooooooaallllll!

June 23, 2010

What a game that USA/Algeria World Cup match turned out to be!  I watched the first 90 minutes online at work.  My dual monitor set up comes in handy for more than just work sometimes.  Around the point that the bonus time started, I switched over to the big tv in the “company break room.” […]

Weekend Recap

June 20, 2010

Even though I did not do a whole lot of anything this weekend, it still seems to have flown by.  Not cool. Friday evening we headed downtown with our friends Julie and Nate to see Appetite for Destruction, a Guns n Roses cover band that was playing at the Downtown Live thing.  I took some […]

Hotter than Hot

June 17, 2010

After waxing all poetic in my last post about the awesomeness of being able to bike outside in the heat, I damn near had a head stroke doing just that.  Knowing that I would be travelling some this week, we headed out for a ride Monday evening.  The plan was to do about 5 miles […]

Biker Girl

June 12, 2010

A few weeks ago (over Memorial Day weekend), I finally made the decision to go out and get a bike.  This is a purchase that I have been mulling over for a long time – mostly I wanted something to do that would replace supplement running.  After a few visits to the local bike shop, […]

Lobsterfest 2010 (revenge of the lobster)

June 6, 2010

As I have mentioned, over the past few weeks, I have been eating a pretty reduced meat diet.  Basically, my rule is to try and eat a 70/30 ratio of vegetarian/meat.  I figure that this way, I can indulge in special occasions, or when a craving strikes.  Eating this way is forcing me to put […]

Memorial Day Weekend

May 30, 2010

Again, which one of my friends signed me up to receive baby products?  This lovely package was delivered to my doorstep on Saturday afternoon.  The shipper even asked for delivery confirmation. I am loving this long weekend.  Technically, I have to go into work for awhile tomorrow, but, I am choosing not to think about […]

Long Day

May 26, 2010

This week has totally been kicking my ass.  My “busy season” is in full swing and that means early mornings, late days and weekend work.  I am grateful for the business – but, this time of the year is always super stressful. I thought maybe making myself a pretty breakfast this morning would help me […]
