After the long (but relatively smooth) work weekend, all I wanted to do was sleep in ‘til noon. Unfortunately, I had (have) a to-do list the size of China, so that was out of the question. I felt like a full time secretary with the amount of time I was on the phone and doing paperwork. Ick. Those things should be illegal on days off. Hey Barack, can we get a bill passed on that? Since I was buried in boring, my brain kinda stalled out on me, and so I had what is probably… Read more >

I’m not sure what all the hype is about…I mean at least our country’s leaders understand how important and significant their work is. By no means is this blog a political one, but I just think that after pushing and pushing and pushing for this bill, it’s somewhat of a relief to see Biden drop an F-bomb over something so major for our nation. I mean, what seems more genuine, sign on the dotted line with a poker face or bleep your way to the podium (I’m liking the second option, but I’m also a… Read more >

Do you see the problem here? I don’t know WHAT I was thinking when I was packing this food up…clearly there was no shot in hell that this amount of food would tide me over for my entire 12 hour shift. Salad? Check. Apples? Double check. Pretz/carob/raisins? Check. Drank? Check. And yet, all those goodies weren’t even close to enough food…by my 2 pm lunch break I was left with nothing but my ensalada. Where the bars at, yo?!?! Indeed, supplementation was very necessary (see below). I bought this big a$$ tub of nuts/carob… Read more >

***Holy crap you guys like oats! I’m loving all the entries to my giveaway, so keep ‘em coming!!*** Well, if yesterday I forgot what the gym was, today I forgot what work was… Apparently, several days off in a row –> Reality check! [Ouch] At least I remembered how to pack a lunch…look at all the colors! I literally think my work eats managed to rep’ every color (can we count the dried cranz as purple?). It may be a stretch but I’m calling it poetic license. Deal. Apple. Apple. Bar. Bar. Bar. Salad. Carrots…. Read more >

Oh happy day! I love St. Patrick’s Day for several reasons: The start of March Madness Kyle’s birthday Green themed everything Boozing (to the nth degree) Random phrases like “sonny” and “me lucky charms” Of course I am one of those people who takes the green theme above and beyond…so prepare yourself for what’s to come. Green monster, complete with spinach, kale, frozen strawberries, mango, and Vita Coco. Natural sunlight. Natural sugar. Non-green joy. After breakfast, I headed out for a run. I made a quick loop in Central Park, came home and showered as… Read more >
