I can't run for two months with this ankle...
… so am planning on devising an upper-body only WOD system with my trainer, so that I can still do crossfit. You know, on crutches/with an ankle brace. Totally normal…
If this actually goes through, I’ll be highly toned on top and total jello at the lower half of my body. It sounds horrible, but I guess it’s better than sitting on my ass for two months and turning into a...
Crisis averted!
Threw our money together to book a flight from San Diego to SF for this weekend. Yay!!! So happy.
This was a wildly funny line on Parks & Rec if you...
To a sick woman: “I typed your symptoms into the thing up here, and it sounds like you could have ‘network connectivity problems’.”
Laughed out loud for a good minute there. That’s not what I would define as a good decision support implementation ;).
We need, in love, to practice only this: letting each other go. For holding on...

True story. Have been practicing some self-awareness of using the “so what?” mentality instead of feeling anger or disappointment towards very small grievances. Challenging, but so doable. Leading to positive results.
Also, Rilke had a lot of good...
I think everyone should pretend to move once a...
Going through all my papers and such as I plan to down-size and purge in my upcoming move to the citttayyy! Whee! I suppose being forced to change your weekend plans due to being a short-term invalid is good for something.
Also, boo for small tax returns. Moving’s expensive.
Two weeks before the New Orleans half marathon...
I end up on crutches with an ankle brace and the doctor’s advice “not to run for 8 weeks unless you’re getting paid for it”.
Damn.
Off to my urgent care appointment.
All fingers crossed, please, that my ankle isn’t broken and nothing’s torn.
Moving into the Presidio!!! Just have to finish the application. Whee!!
So, this post was quite the point of controversy. Mostly humorous replies, with a pretty even split between what you think I should choose. I appreciate you all weighing in, I really do.
I spoke to “the San Diego dude” about it, too, and though he was pretty psyched for the whole designer architecture (we have some aligned taste there), two things came out of the conversation. 1) He...

Ok, I am having a full-on identity crisis.
In one corner, a modern loft in a converted brick warehouse that is to die for. Just like all of the “dream” or “goal” pics on my tumblr here. Exposed wooden beams, bright kitchen, red brick wall, hotel-quality bathroom. Straight out of a design magazine, including the work by a professional interior decorator. I may be drooling just thinking about it. Roommate is a...
Checking out a room in the Oriental Warehouse...
If you know anything about San Francisco architecture, you know that’s huge.
I think I’m going to run into the dog vs. Cora living preferences dilemma…
Back in the Presidio today. Sitting at the hidden Starbucks with a most insane view. I think I can get over living in an unfinished basement for this.

I'm having a minor identity crisis here.
Am I really considering moving in walking distance of the Marina?
How have I never really checked out the Presidio? This place is fantastic.
There is only one success—to be able to spend your life in your own way.

Seriously.
I need a roommate with a job and without drug habits that can afford 1400$ + in rent. Looking at an awesome 2 bedroom in Cole Valley/Ashbury Hts this weekend.
Oh, and of course, be cool ;). Any of your friends, and non-serial killers, looking for a roomie soon? Send them my way. Pretty please!
I'm only three classes deep...
And already in a love-hate relationship with CrossFit. The paiiiiin!
For all my love of modern architecture, design and...
… the first room I’m checking out in my apartment hunt this weekend is in the Presidio. That’s right. A national park in SF with historic houses.
The joys and pains of having a 60 pound dog! No, really, I’m sort of pumped for this, though :).
Someone move in with me! So cheap. →
