More Ink
So I come crawling out of my hole for the first time in almost 10 months only to post more pictures of my tattoos. My ink from last May was only the beginning. In quick succession I added two more, one at the end of May less than 3 weeks after the music notes one, and then another one at the beginning of August. I then waited until the week of my ( Read more... ) -
Tattoo!
Last Saturday, after years spent thinking about it, I FINALLY got another tattoo. This one wasn't the design I've had stored away in my head for the past decade, it was something I came up with fairly recently (a mere six months or so ago).

Feeling a little bit hardcore
This morning I hauled my ass out of bed at 6:00 for a run. My morning runs have suffered mightily lately as my down time after the NYC Marathon stretches into its 7th week. It's so easy to come up with any handy excuse not to hit the sidewalks at 6:10 when I'm not actively training for a race ( Read more... ) -
NEW YORK CITY MARATHON BABYYYYY!!!!
Last Sunday I ran the NYC Marathon.
It was completely totally 100% all out fucking AWESOME. I LOVED IT. I went into the race with NO expectations and NO goals other than to have FUN and by golly I did. I enjoyed the hell out of every last mile and minute. I finished in 4:16:55, quite a bit slower than my PR (3:45:14) but I didn't care; it wasn't my ( Read more... ) -
Rainy
How many days has it rained in the past week around here? Sheesh...well, at least it's not hot. Or snowing (soon enough).
I currently have a purring orange tabby draped over my arm.
