Not that I expect too many people on this site to care, but yesterday was Ash Wednesday. I decided to give up candy. Those of you who know me probably think this is impossible, as I eat candy every single day, but I couldn't think of anything else so now I get to suffer through 40 days without my fix.

It just dawned on me...

I like it when I'm running on Sunset and random crazy people decide to run with me.
LA Marathon is in 11 days.

I hope everyone enjoyed their cheesey holiday. I'm not a big fan of Valentine's, but I will remember this year's, fondly, as the day I got my keys to my new apartment. I am beyond happy.

We got our keys on Wednesday, but moving has been a very slow process due to conflicting work schedules. Also, there are some serious logistical issues, even though we...

I think I've recovered from Dmuff's impromptu roadtrip to Vegas this past weekend. We had a great time and found that we complement and balance each other out quite nicely.

Tomorrow morning I am back to business with a 26 mile run. Yay day off in the middle of the week!

The other day, one of my best friends told me that she thinks...

Time seems to have sped up. This morning, as I was driving to work, I realized that I have been so busy these days and so much is happening with me, to me, and without me.
I've been at my "new" job for six months, I've been living in Hollywood for three months, my second marathon is in one month, and I'm getting my master's...

She had moved in at a time when she was battling cancer, since the hotel was close to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and had 24hr services; she had since gone into remission.

As the phone operator, I got...

38 days until the LA marathon!! I'm going to try to run 20 miles on my own this Saturday. I'm not training with a team this time, so it's a little hard to stay motivated.

Work has been quite busy, yet interesting. I'm trying to turn garbage (literally) into ethanol. That's right, in the future, we will be able to make cocktails with something that...

suspense is currently killing me.

I hope everyone is having a lovely holiday season!

I just got back in town last night after a brief visit with my family. I brought back plenty of tamales and cookies and happy memories of the whole family spending Christmas Eve in the kitchen, cooking together. There is something so sweet and lovely about watching my father and maternal grandmother sitting at the kitchen...

I don't like it when people tell you how cool and great someone is, and how you have to meet them because they want to meet you, and then you meet them and they couldn't care less and completely blow you off and even ignore the person who introduces you. Fake people like that suck.

On the bright side, I went to the Dragonfly on...
