August.11.2007.
August 11th, 2007.I woke up and ran a 5K with Mike and one of my bridesmaids and closest friends, Katie. I hadn’t ran in weeks, but I wanted to do something that would get my mind off the fact that I was, oh, you know, WALKING DOWN THE AISLE at 2pm.With a veil attached toRead the whole post >>
I'm So Freakin' Hot, You Guys.
Just a quick public service announcement before we return to our regularly scheduled blogging: I’m a klutz. And also, my knees are completely cursed. Seriously. At first, I just had ITBS – basically my right knee hurt when I ran more than 1.5 miles, so I have to stretch it really well and it willRead the whole post >>
Slip 'N Slide, Popsicles, and Cousins.
Ah, summer. The very word fills me with memories of months spent playing outside till my shoulders were tanned and freckled, fingers sticky from popsicles bought from the ice cream truck, and ponytail still wet from running through the sprinkler. As a kid, summer is absolute freedom. Bedtime is later, days seem to stretch onRead the whole post >>
My Crappy Work Ethic & Camping
Things are picking up at work, so I’ve has little time to blog and read blogs. :( (Wait, some people do the blogging thing OUTSIDE of work? When!?)

In general, I avoid most phone calls because I feel pretty awkward unless I knowRead the whole post >>
Housekeeping Deets.
I read blogs a lot. Google Reader has been my saving grace when it comes to keeping my blogs organized and up to date. In my G’Reader, I have them all organized into “Mommy Bloggers, Environmental Bloggers, and Personal Blogs (read: Mostly 20SB)”. (What did I DOOOO before Google Reader?

My Boss is a Rock Star
I’ve been at my job two weeks now. Ten days. My extended family has been planning to go to Cedar Point (America’s Roller Coast, baby!) tomorrow for a few months, but I figured I wouldn’t ask for time off since I’m new at my job. Plus, how lame is it to ask for a dayRead the whole post >>
After your awesome advice last week, I went out last weekend armed with my rules and ideas ready to spend some money. I have lots of pictures, so have a look at the START of my new wardrobe. I still have to get some more cardigans (I only have TWO, and you guys really talkedRead the whole post >>
Noah's Ark
This weekend, I spent some time with my friends whom I’ve known since 8th grade. We’re an eclectic group – we might not have as much in common as we once did, but we’ve stayed close nonetheless. We hold jobs as teachers, med students, business women, and volunteers. We differ in our political and religiousRead the whole post >>
