January 2011
Over Christmas break I twisted my knee skiing. It felt really weird when I fell, but didn’t necessarily hurt. Well, I’m still having issues with it. Like when I sit for awhile and stand back up, I can’t really walk on it properly. But once I have it moving, it’s fine. I hate doctors, but maybe I should get it checked out?
I have an obese person’s brain trapped inside a not-yet-obese person’s body.
On our drive home yesterday, I must have mentioned craving every type of food possible. Luckily I only ended up eating pizza and a burrito. While I was eating the pizza I was thinking about the burrito.
We had the best time at Sarah’s wedding this past weekend. Ate like fool, drank like a fool, danced like a fool and smiled so much my cheeks hurt. I love my UMD friends tremendously and love celebrating a couple’s happiness.
Oh, and the bouquet fell right at my feet and C got the garter. However, I didn’t pick up the bouquet because I didn’t want all that attention and...
I'm going to NY tomorrow!!!
So super duper excited to see my college friends whom I miss tremendously, and even more excited to watch one of the most important females in my life get married.
It’s kind of ironic that I’m sitting here developing my idea for a non-profit as an assignment for my Interactive Journalism grad program when I originally passed up a Masters of Public Policy with a speciality in non-profit management at NYU a few years ago.
While I will always wonder where my life would have gone had I followed through with that plan, I don’t regret it. But...
This startup business is way harder than I imagined. Who wants to be on the board of my future non-profit?

Why would anyone get anything other than Samoa’s anyway?
I am a really bad teacher and would much rather do everything myself than take extra time to explain things. This makes dealing with interns quite difficult for me.
Nights like tonight I hate living alone. With a snow day possible tomorrow, I’m all alone trying to focus on homework while friends are at bars and my love is playing beer pong with his roomies. This makes me sad.

I <3 Alec and could maybe get behind this.
Things I Will Hate About Moving
1. Sharing closet space and drawers. 2. Commuting again. Note that my excitement far outweighs these two things.
Work sure gets in the way of romantic times for me. Went to Arizona the weekend I was supposed to celebrate our one year in NYC. And now I’ll be in Denver for Valentine’s Day.
My travel schedule is a bit nuts coming up.
“The American laughs when they destroy public property and not follow the rules...”
– from my friend living in Italy on her first experience in an Italian movie theater when she was the only one who laughed.
Weddings
Between a baby post yesterday and wedding post today, I’m probably gonna scare C off. But I’ve been talking to several friends about their wedding planning lately and it’s SO DAMN EXPENSIVE.
Seriously though, my wedding is gonna involve a field, picnic blankets and only immediate family and closest friends. Followed by camping.
Hooked my oatmeal up with some frozen blueberries, cherries and coconut today. Yum!!!

Thank God! The thought of this happening had me upset all weekend.
Babies
It’s so true, women’s biological clocks really do kick in. I used to be adamant about never wanting to have babies. Now, everytime I see an adorable baby or hear a funny story from my coworkers, I think about how awesome it’s gonna be to raise my own kids. I feel very happy thinking about what a great dad C will be. I LOVE seeing baby pics on Facebook. This change baffles me, but...
I cannot stand negative people and their draining energy.
Watch
I’m tired. It’s been a hectic week. And then today I’m in class, then gotta rush up to Bethesda, celebrate, sleep for a few hours, wake up super early and go skiing tomorrow. I’m excited to celebrate and go skiing. But I’m tired.
Woo hoo! Today I signed up for my first mini-tri and applied for graduation!

Instead of ending with this paragraph, I would have lead with it.
“Police, however, are not characterizing the assaults as sexual. They say no one was injured. They also say the incidents could have been prevented if the residents locked their doors.”
WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU NOT LOCK YOUR DOORS?!?!?!

Yikes! Glad I wasn’t walking to work at 8 AM to see this.
Not gonna lie. Maybe 40 percent of why I can’t wait to live with Casey is so we can entertain friends and family. I cannot wait to have a one bedroom apartment and have people over for dinner or snacks before going out to dinner.
