    I normally just try to refrain from writing anything, if it is just going to be complaining. But, today, I couldn’t help myself.  In fact the title of this post is quite dramatic. But, I am feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment. Piper is fine. I’m still employed. Reagan is fine. But… I am…

    (above: Jake and Reagan Playing Horseshoes in Charleston by: Kat) I have been up to my neck in nerdy stuff, the past few days. A year ago, my brother-in-law and I went into a joint venture on web hosting. Recently it became pretty clear that our current setup would no longer support what we are…

    Despite being ill, I went for a run Wednesday night, against my better judgment. I definitely paid for it. I felt like death, when I got home, then woke up the next day even more congested. Today I’m feeling a bit better, but I’m going to play it safe and wait until Saturday to pick…

    Normally, by this time of the week, a little bit of detente creeps into my mood, and I start to anticipate the weekend. Today, however, I’m totally stressed out. I had a 9 mile run marked for this morning. I woke up at 5:30– monsoon. So, I figured I would give it an hour, and…

    Last weekend was one of those times when I could have cloned myself and built a time machine, and still not have been able to get in everything that I wanted to.  Saturday night, I checked out the new Hole Gallery in SoHo. It will eventually be moving to the old Deitch space (above). Check…

    (Above: 2009 Mini 10k, photo by: me) The only official item that we have calendared for this weekend is a race that Reagan is running. It is the NYRR Mini 10K. It is a Women’s-only race that dates back to the 70’s– and “mini” refers to the miniskirts that were popular during the era. The…

    One thing I realized this weekend is that we don’t make it to Kings county enough. Every time that Reagan and I wander into Brooklyn we are both like “why don’t we live here.” I have to admit though, that depending on what neighborhood we go to, I get a little bit hipstered out. Anyway.…

    It is hot in the city, these days. Really hot. Even so, I’m tooootally ready to spend some time outside of the air conditioned office. There are a few notable items on the agenda for this weekend. Friday evening: I’ll be attending/shooting the “Love and Guts” art show in SoHo. It is a tribute exhibit…

    (Above: Reagan after crossing the finish line) We had fantastic weather for the Brooklyn Half-Marathon today. Reagan and I traveled to the race with a bunch of our friends from the running club, which made it a lot of fun. We all had a pretty good race. I didn’t hit my 1:30 goal. But I…
