Mine was fabulous. Kyle may or may not kill me for posting that picture. But it’s worth it. I had to show you all how adorbz my beau is! Getting serenaded while eating an apple/cinnamon dessert on the late night – is there a better way to spend your Friday night? I think not. But back to the AM. Breakfast of champions indeed. I really tested my stomach’s expansion ability with this one. First of all that coffee mug was the size of my head (and I had 2 of ‘em filled to the brim),… Read more >

Apple, Blog, Coffee that is. As if my hospital-less days would start any other way… Hope you guys liked the froth tutorial. This alphabetical brekkie got me through a tivo-ed Gossip Girl episode (followed by a dance party in my PJs to Lady GaGa) and many many blogs, but eventually I needed a course two. A [me] & goji bowl of deliciousness filled (my tummy’s) void. Shortly after I digested, I threw on some clothes, got my hair did, beautified my face, and hit the road to get some errands done. Runway ready? FO SHO…. Read more >

Back to work already?! Weekends go by too fast, but at least Monday meant the return of my K-love. You know the drill. Fruit (dried and fresh), Clif bars (seasonal and Z), pretz, and tupperware filled “entrees.” I recently bought these spelt pretzels from WFs, and although I was nervous about straying from my Newman’s protein pretz, I like trying new things. The verdict? Good, but different. I think I liked them, but sometimes (like when I’m starving at work) any carb will do. I’ll have to try them again when I’m not running on… Read more >

Here are just a few lessons I learned that were reinforced today. 1. I crash and burn without my “me time” (aka days off). Feel me K? I was in a beezy of a mood all day today (come to think of it, I’d say I’m going on day 3 now). Even one of the male (read: unobservant) NPs on the floor noticed and asked me point blank what was wrong, and told me I seemed down. Shoot. So much for my poker face. He then asked me if I was “chemical” which was so… Read more >

I had probably THE worst night last night. “Que paso” you ask? Well, the abbreviated version goes something like this: boy catches cold, cold causes hideous symptoms, symptoms keep girl up all night, girl sleeps on couch. Boo. I stumbled back into the bedroom after Kyle left for work, and (fortunately) managed to fall back asleep. Unfortunately, I unknowingly turned off my alarm somewhere in the bed-to-couch-to-bed process. I woke up just before noon, very confused, and very annoyed. I immediately got to work on a very frothy cup of coffee and a very cinnamon-y… Read more >
