Oh, you guys. I’m failing so hard at this running thing. I think I’ve gone two miles in the last two weeks, and am barely motivated to do more. I’m doing such a bad job! Maybe I’ll focus on not more miles, but more quality miles. Getting faster. I’m very slow, which is not bad [...]

Spring!
Posted in My super fun activities, Running, tagged bikes, Gardening, Spring on April 12, 2012 | 10 Comments »
It’s Spring! And it’s crappy out at the moment of this writing, but we have some lovely weather coming up. Who’s planning on putting in a garden, but not quite getting around to it yet? Who’s riding bikes around? Who’s neglecting their runs in order to go play basketball and frisbee in the park? You [...]
Being an adult – overrated in some aspects
Posted in Derby, Food, My super fun activities, tagged bikes, budgeting, ecdx, philly, shenanigans on March 28, 2012 | 8 Comments »
Here’s the thing: I really want to go to ECDX with a side trip to New York with my sweetie. And we can afford it – it’s just matter of priorities. Do we want to be paying off student loans until our dying breaths? Or maybe buckle down, stop paying for “frivolous vacations” (aka enriching life [...]
Getting ripped. (…as in strong.)

(Not as in drunk. That was last weekend.) (As an aside, this girl is not drinking whiskey again until the Sunday of Championships.) (WFTDA Championships, duh.) (Beer is also being curtailed.) It’s become clear to me recently that I have to step up my game physically if I want to progress quickly in roller derby. Yeah, [...]
I bought a bike!
Posted in My super fun activities, tagged bikes on October 4, 2011 | 4 Comments »
This bad boy officially became mine today: I’ve been borrowing this bike for the summer, and bought it off its previous owner today. Pretty sweet ride. Unfortunately, the wet season (which is October-May or Juneish in Portland) is just starting, and I’m not really set up to ride in the rain. No fenders, you see [...]
Dry shampoo update – it works!
Posted in Derby, My super fun activities, tagged beauty, bikes, hairs, sweatiness on September 7, 2011 | 2 Comments »
It really works! Now, I haven’t been able to perform any miracles. It’s not going to magically remove a heavy sweat, though it can revive your bangs enough to not be completely embarassing after a bout. Case in point: after a dry shampoo, (and a couple of beers and a whiskey soda), I felt confident [...]
Labor Day Weekend
Posted in My super fun activities, tagged beers, bikes, golf, nature, tennis on September 5, 2011 |
I don’t know about you, but a three-day weekend seems much more civilized than those brutish and short two-day ones. You can go out of town, enjoy some social time, and then still have time to get your affairs (i.e., laundry, etc.) in order. I approve. On Friday afternoon, we headed to Black Butte Ranch [...]
