But it is so damn good for my weight loss goal. The funny thing is my legs hurt more when I run slower than when I crank up the treadmill and start to wobble all over the place. Okay, I have some control of my arms when running (unlike when burning food) because I tend [...]

Shedding

After spending two days in the sun with little to no sunscreen, my burnt skin is now flaking off my body.  It is landing on the collar of the black shirt I so smartly chose to wear into work today.  I look like the Queen of Dandruff, with my loyal flakes lining on my shoulders [...]

I thought it was a little odd that I spent all day Sunday throwing up and feeling generally awful.  I had almost zero energy yesterday, too.  I decided that while I was out at Giant Eagle last night picking up groceries, I should pick up a pregnancy test.  I was scared to death about the possibilities [...]

To the birds…

I do not know why this obsession began, but I can pinpoint when.  About three years ago, I walked across the Oval at Ohio State and there, situated just behind the art buildings, was a small art glass sale.  Ohio State has a glass blowing program, and several students sold their art once a year.

I do not get along with my boyfriend’s mother, and it is admittedly obvious.  In the past, for the sake of my relationship, I tried to find some way to get along, some thing in common, anything that would at least allow me to talk to her without immediately feeling defensive.  Or wanting to walk [...]

It is a bit humorous that the smallest gift I received this Christmas, thus far, came in the largest box.  The box my boyfriend said held a dead, stuffed dog from my childhood, the very same dog I saw this morning running around my sister’s house.  It was a nice joke, because the wool was [...]

After being swamped with work, a Marketing final exam, and frankly not caring for about two weeks, I am backlogging my blog.
This day, December 8, marks my twenty-fifth birthday. Since the inception of my birth, my birthdays have become less eventful, and usually less fun than the previous one; this is at least true [...]

This whole idea of moving to Seattle is such a large, complex idea, that sometimes I do not have room in my brain (especially at work) to even consider some of the things I have not thought of regarding the move, yet.  Specifically, will this move change me?
I am midwestern born-and-bred.  So is Dave.  We’ve been [...]

Day Twenty-Six

I have five more days, including this one, to post blogs every day of the month for NaBloPoMo.  It has been quite the month.  I have never posted every single day of the month in any other month prior to this month, and with everything that happened this month, I sometimes wonder why I feel [...]
