Here's what: May 2

Today is my Friday! Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week...
You know me, I rarely have weekend plans. And that was true of this weekend. Until Tuesday. That is when I got an email from my friend G's boss. I had told her back when I volunteered at the Indoor Championships that I would probably be available to help with Outdoors. So Tuesday I got a mass email from her thanking me for volunteering and telling me to be at the track one hour before the events I was working each day. Umm. What? It's no problem because I didn't have plans anyway, but she's very lucky I was already off on Friday. Oh and the track? It's 30 miles away and it's a three day meet. Awesome.
If you've been paying attention lately, you know I've been eating way too much mexican food. I just can not help myself. Chuy's is less than a mile away from my apartment. And it is so dang good. I had it three times last week! If you don't eat there already, you should. And if you come out to visit me, we should go there.

A twofer. I need these books. They are currently sitting in my amazon cart, I just have not pulled the trigger yet. I vaguely remember hearing about them last week, but then saw them when I was in Anthropologie the other day - where, of course, they cost almost twice as much as they do on amazon. They do have the U.S. one available broken down into northwest, southeast, etc. But come on. I want the whole thing.

Here's what: August 15

Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week... If you haven't seen this photo of Usain Bolt winning the men's 100m at the IAAF World Championships, you might be living under a rock. There are five sessions, and some pretty good events, left to go at Worlds. And Team USA is currently sitting atop the medal table with a total of 10 medals - 4 gold, 5 silver and 1 bronze. So...I joined a local running club. And I signed up for the marathon training program! Not that I'm signed up for an actual marathon or anything. This particular training group is training for my race, so I can't exactly run that. There are weekly track sessions and long runs are on Saturdays. The program lasts for 22 weeks. Well but we've already missed two weeks bc of other commitments. E and I will be doing this together. We'll see how this goes.  Towards the end of September is something called Social Media Week. It is a leading media platform and worldwide event

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

Insurance process

Ok, so who has ever had their place broken into? First I filed the police report. Then after I actually had a handle on what really was missing I amended the police report. I gathered all of the documentation I could find for the things that were missing - it's amazing how often I just throw away the receipts - and sent that along with an itemized list to the insurance company. Now what? How long will this take? The one guy I spoke to said that they have 15 days to process the claim, but that it usually gets done sooner. Will I hear from them in the meantime? I called my new apartment complex yesterday. I am supposed to be moving on August 31 but naturally I want to get out of here as soon as possible. They told me the current tenant moves out on the 19th and that they may be able to get me in that weekend - the 24th or 25th. They were going to check on a few things and let me know. That would be fantastic. I'm not necessarily afraid to be in my current apartment. But I
