Feel free to skip this post. It is nothing more than a long complaint. I am sick for the 9000000th time, this year. I knew it was going to happen when my office mate came in coughing her lungs out last Thursday. It is a little bit ridiculous. I was supposed to run 11 miles … Continue reading Shoot me→
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 … Continue reading My life is falling apart→
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 … Continue reading Hump Day→

It is weird sometimes how certain seemingly random things will set my mind in motion, wandering down equally random paths.

There was the appearance on Saturday Night Live. I even had a recent conversation with my friend about U2 and their appearances … Continue reading “Tired of” in the most literal sense→
Reagan and I, have on occasion had discussions regarding the integrity of retailers (lifestyle pushers) like Urban Outfitters. My argument is that, by providing all of those reproduced “vintage” (FYI, I hate the term vintage) tees, etc., in one location, and charging a ton of money for them, Urban Outfitters has effectively taken away everything … Continue reading Random Bike Rant→
Sorry, that this is going to be kind of a rant. So, skip it and I won’t be offended. I have been really frustrated with my running for the past couple of weeks. I have been having problems with my ITB (I think), since the BK half marathon. I ran it with some new shoes … Continue reading Running woes→
For those who have seen my previous rants about people and the way they wield their massive umbrellas on crowded sidewalks, they may already know how annoyed I can get while commuting on rainy days, like today. But, check this out. I was minding my own business, and a magical idea came across one of … Continue reading Solutions for a soggy day→
