Hump Day

Discovering the Mexican Institute of Sound album Soy Sauce thanks to Peter Pan, which will be awesome running music and led me to
Discovering a ton of free running apps that I’m very excited to use for training over the next few months
Swimming workout with Tiny Features
Heading to New York tomorrow for work

Confession
I’d much rather watch the UK game than keep up with American politics and watch the State of the Union. Sorry I’m not sorry I prefer Kentucky blue over being reminded of what’s wrong with the red white and blue.

Sighting
My tumblr buddy SBUX gift card treated me to a misto this morning (thanks Tiny Features for the suggestion) and as I was walking out I spotted my favorite gym class teacher walking up Conn Ave and felt like I had a celebrity sighting. It was totally weird to see her out of the gym context and must admit I got strangely flustered. I have a total girl crush on her and have been really excited that...
Paranoia
So today I only spoke out loud to two people all day so I was already feeling a little weird on this very grey day… then the gym was playing The Matrix in the cardio cinema and now a telephone keeps ringing somewhere in my apartment building. And lebluegrass is out of town.
I’m the weirdo that locked the door handle and the deadbolt because I watched a weird movie on a dreary day.
Beautiful Moment of the Day
Corgi sighting on my way to work. Such tiny little legs!

Maybe my Bloomingdale’s spree wasn’t such a bad idea anyway.
2012 Resolutions
Or maybe more like suggestions to keep in mind….
- Be financially responsible. At least spend less at Bloomingdale’s. I started out 2012 with making some changes to my 401K and setting up a LearnVest account to attempt to set a budget that allows for money to put away towards this thing called “savings.” Then I spent an absurd amount at Bloomingdale’s because it...

Note to Self
Wear sunscreen even if it’s cold outside. My face is on fire from getting sunburned during our flag football game.
In other flag football news, I caught a tip for an interception today and it took me a good five seconds to even think to run rather than just stand there.

In hiding
Currently slinking behind my computer in the hopes that The Work Incident doesn’t see me in the office today and we have to do the awkward catch-up in front of everyone.
Last time I saw him he kissed me on the cheek right as one of the guys on my team walked out into the hallway. That was a fun elevator ride.

By the time I got home last night I had a LinkedIn request from this dude I talked to for a while at a work event.
