Seriously, I hope I’m not boring you all, but this trip home was so epic, that even the Cliff’s notes version is miles long… I guess I will continue from where I left off (Saturday PM). Since the Nike half marathon started at 7 am (and I had no desire to commute into the city before that ungodly hour) I stayed at my sister’s apartment the night before. At least something positive came out of last month’s half marathon pre-race disaster (i.e. 4 am wake up calls are NOT conducive to a happy hippie). Spooning… Read more >

I am back in CA! YEAH!! But before I get to the fun I’m am having on the West Coast, I will quickly recap my few days leading up to coming here. I worked on Tuesday, so I made sure to get to bed early before midnight on Monday night (I don’t like yawning through codes thankyouverymuch). So, as I was dozing off Monday night, my phone rang so loud and abruptly, I bolted upright nearly shocking myself into SVT (cardiac talk, no worries). Who the eff would text me past midnight?? By now, my… Read more >

Hey HEY Hey! Long time no see… I know, my bad. I didn’t mean to leave you high and dry, but sometimes I get soopah stressed. When that happens, unfortunately, the blog is the first to take a seat on the sidelines… It all started to pile up last weekend. There were actually a few different factors contributing to this, but I will only get to part of that now. I was really busy and unable to get my gym time in, which doesn’t matter when it’s one day, but after a few I start… Read more >

I sat on the couch all day today. I did NO exercise, and worse yet, I barely moved my butt even within my own apartment. In fact, the only reason I ditched my PJs and left my 600 square foot haven was to pick up my freshly pressed dress for this weekend. But, the dry cleaners is less than 3 blocks from the apartment, so I expended less than 5 calories (and even that is being generous). Meh. I’m not pleased with my fitness-less day, but at the same time, I don’t really care. I… Read more >

I’m all about VeganMoFo. October is already my favorite month, so I was delighted to read Gena’s latest post and find out that there is yet ANOTHER reason to smile now that it’s October. I mean, why not dedicate an entire month to celebrating a healthy lifestyle! In honor of this special Vegan Month Of Food, in each post I am going to reveal a celebrity who is vegan. Today’s vegan celeb was someone I was QUITE surprised about…I mean after years of torturing himself for entertainment purposes, who would ever have expected STEVE-O to… Read more >
