Happy 2022 east coasters!
And by 2022 I mean 2012.
I’ve lost count of shots.
2 boys have rejected my presence tonight, and I accept that!
I love you guys more anyway!
A little over an hour to go.

Last run of 2011!
6 miles in the books.
Got a little lost because I tried to go to a trail parallel to the one I usually go on, I didn’t like it because I had to cross streets.
Hadn’t run 6 miles in quite awhile, so my time of 1:08:05 isn’t too shabby (11:20 pace), especially with all the walk breaks.
Now to shower and go to my mom’s to go to my sister’s, and then *hopefully*...

One more thing I wanted to share.
A PSA, maybe?
Girls. I just tried the best thing ever and now my legs feel so beautiful and smooth and wonderful. I don’t know why I never thought of this before.
So, quick backstory, my sister is into extreme couponing, so over the last few months we have a LOT of every kind of hygienic product. My 11 year old niece decided that this meant every time she shaved she could use a new...

Oh and random sidenote.
I think I decided on my first half marathon of the year.
It’s called the “SuperHalf”, because it’s on Super Bowl Sunday. And I couldn’t care less about the Super Bowl unless Tim Tebow is involved (yeah, I said it. I’ve been following him since he was at UF leave me alone he’s beautiful), and even then…
Starts and finishes at my favorite bar....

I GUESS since I'm not busy..
I should go to sleep.
That way I can get my run in early and get to see other runners running because that’s one of my favorite things.

mr365:
if you’re like millions and millions of people, you’re probably going to make some kind of decision about what kind of goal/resolution you want to set for 2012.
what i want to suggest to you tonight is to think about what decisions you can make now that will actually matter, actually resonate, and actually last.
for those of you who don’t know my story, i’ll be brief: this is what i...

I don't like very many holidays.
Because all of them require people getting together and having fun, and I have pretty much no one. The only holiday where I get to escape this is St. Patty’s because everyone is friends and getting drunk.
New Year’s, however, with the kiss at midnight, the countdown, all that, too much pressure to have friends and be with people you love.
I think I’d rather spend it by myself,...

Maybe I'm missing the concept..
But Pinterest seems like a wannabe Tumblr..tumblr from 2 years ago. Except for with more projects, I don’t see the difference.

Once people touch me nicely I don’t really understand why they would ever be around and not be touching me.

This is why I love you so much, Becky.

Seizing the moment.
Just took a big scary step in the being forward with people department. If anything comes from it, awesome.
If not, well, I’ll get over it as I do everything else.
It’s scary talking to people sometimes.

Running for fun
Is so much fun.
I love running so much.
I love the little nods we give each other as we run past each other, and that knowing smile when you pass each other again on an out and back run.
I love when I get that extra little kick in the last quarter mile. That fresh feeling in my legs after a rest day at the beginning of a run, and the soreness in my legs after a long run.
I just love...

2011 Resolutions Revisited.
Be happier. Be smarter. Change. Do better. Stay active. Live more. Love.
Basically.
Be happier. I truly worked so hard at this. It really came when I started school again. It was wonderful.
Smile more. It was mentioned more than once that I have been seen smiling all the time. There’s just so much to smile about!
Learn to take a compliment. Yep. Also, became a pro at GIVING...

I think part of the reason why I haven't been...
Besides my poor habits in recent times..
I’ve been lacking in capoeira.
Capoeira has always been my secret ingredient to losing weight and feeling extra amazing. I run for fun, I do capoeira for fun, but I always see the most results when I combine the two.
Seriously, my abs? After a good day in capoeira, I look like..just amazing. Might have something to do with my after capoeira glow,...

It has been probably 10 years
Since I’d seen The Secret Garden.
Oh my goodness.
It’s even better than I remembered.
I totally teared up at the end.
Just such a beautiful movie.
Of course, when Colin started going outside and started to walk and started talking about magic, all I could think about was “Vitamin D’s some strong magic, huh?”
Go outside, kids. It’s magical.
The whole...

GUYS I HAVE A NORMAL LOOKING BACK AGAIN!!!
Praise the world of medicine. This is freaking exciting.
And my breakout on my face seems less visible. It makes me happy.
Now I’m going to have two big glasses of water and yogurt and watch a movie and go to bed, even though I fell asleep at 8:30 pm out of sadness and just woke up a few minutes ago.
Ugh.
I’m tired. Just… Tired.

Ughhhhh I want my body to go back to normal..
You know, I think all my issues have started from finals time..
I was put on antibiotics.
I have eaten crap the past two weeks, like, hardcore, my body is not used to eating like that anymore.
This rash came about, and I was put on steroids.
I have a cold now.
And now as my rash is clearing up..
My face is starting to break out. Like, really bad. My skin is like what I had when I...

So I just followed a shit ton of new people.
Well, like 10 or 15. But that’s a lot!
Probably expect more non-fitness related posts because not all of them were anywhere near related to fitness. And that’s okay.
Never realized how awesome people can be. I’m almost scared to go through my followers because then I’ll want to follow everyone and I’ll lose track of everyone.
I know I’m random. It’s...

a lesson in texting etiquette
babyonce:
for people you are:
currently sleeping with
have slept with in the past
would like to sleep with in the future
only kind of friend with (you liar they’re probably in the other three categories but whatever)
if you text them and they do not text you back, you have ONE SHOT
in 45 min to 1 hour you can text them something that makes the situation seem urgent-ish (but not too urgent)...

So I realized in the process of writing Christmas...
That I don’t know how to write a Christmas cards.
Reading over what I write, it sounds like a cross between a letter and what you write in someone’s yearbook.
Oh well. Makes it more personal, right?

Things I don't believe anymore..
swimbikeren:
That I am destined to be fat, unhealthy, and miserable.
That life an unending series of bad decisions.
That regret is a daily problem.
Obesity is my only option.
That I am not a runner, or an athlete of any kind.
That regular weight and size are out of my grasp.
That an airplane seat will always be too small.
That tucking in my shirt is unattractive.
That people will always...

Something I wish existed:
A place in text messages to add passive aggressive hashtags.

Doctor used Steroids! It was super effective!
That’s what just went through my head as I was looking at my now starting to fade rash.
Sounds like Pokemon, right? That was the intention.

I am the worst.
At sending Christmas cards.
So all of you receiving them, you haven’t gotten them because I haven’t sent them. I got overwhelmed and only had like half of them done. Finishing them NOW.
Hopefully I could get them sent out today. So instead of Christmas, you’re getting New Year’s-ish cards.
