Here's what: Dec 6

Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week...

ABC's Scandal. O. M. G. This show is amazing. I love Shonda Rhimes' other shows, Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice, but Scandal is on a whole other level. Kerry Washington as "fixer" Olivia Pope is fantastic. And her wardrobe...I want it all! I can't wait til Thursday nights to watch.


NWM DC Half. Nike has put on a women's half and marathon in San Francisco for the past, idk, at least eight years. Hugely popular, they run a great expo in Union Square and the on-course amenities are great. Then there's the firemen in tuxedos that hand you a Tiffany's box from a silver platter as you cross the finish. Hello. What could be better. They're finally having a race on the east coast. This coming April, they will put on a race in Washington DC. But they're events are so popular that they have gone to a lottery format to gain entry. Myself and several of my family members are entered in the lottery and will find out next week if we get in. 


Work. With less than 40 days until race day and, I think, just 16 business days, I am so busy right now it's ridiculous. I just met two major deadlines last weekend but things are definitely not slowing down. It will only get busier from here.

Weekend

I love weekends. I wish they were longer...doesn't everybody? It was quite the lazy weekend too, being that it was so hot out. I ran Sunday...kind of. It was so hot, I hadn't had enough water, or food for that matter, so I cut my run short. And then we opted to eat out instead of cooking. I really need to cook this week. And maybe not drink. Except I have half a bottle of red left over from last night's Bachelorette finale fiesta with E.  Monday. Oh Monday. Cancelled my run once again when the car told me it was 102 outside. Can't wait to be able to run in the mornings. Last night was the Bachelorette season finale so E came over for dinner and some wine. I now love sweet potatoes and I may have had a little too much to drink. And then decided it was a good time to update my iOS on my iphone. I'm still trying to get my phone back to where it should be. It made me do a complete restore, then I couldn't restore from a current backup and when I was f...

Weekend recap

I actually went out! Friday afternoon G text me did I want to go to dinner. Obviously the answer was yes. I have a great time with him and we can talk track for hours. I'm always early when I go to dinner with G bc I don't want to go home first, but we don't usually meet until 6:30pm. So I was early again Friday and sat in my car, with the heat on, reading. When he got there, I got out and we started to walk in only to see a sign that said closed for private party! You have got to be kidding me. I feel like their facebook should have mentioned that. So we walked across the street to some bbq place. BBQ in Texas is different. And, I think, not in a good way. I've been a few times and I don't think I need to go again. But it was a small place and we were taking up a needed table, so a while after we were done we headed down the road to Starbucks. And were there until they closed. Saturday morning I had an appointment at a local salon for a facial (sorry mom). For ...

Here's what: March 21

Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week... The Girls Night In that Deb and I are planning for when I'm home. We're slightly obsessed and have a whole private pinterest board to prove it. Now if only our family would actually respond to invite we sent out... I know I've included this race in the past, but now that it is this weekend I am starting to freak out. My "training" since running Austin has been close to nonexistent, much like K's, and E ended up with a minor stress fracture (!) but is going to run it anyway. Hopefully A will keep as all going. And the twins. Our birthday is in 13 days and I will be home for it! There are  plans to be made.
