#Movenorth makeover

October 21, 2009

I got bored. I’ve been contemplating it for a while, but I finally did it. Mostly, because I’m picky. I wanted it done at a place I trust. I didn’t want to scrounge for a decent place in Stamford. I just wanted to get it over with. Not to mention the fact that it had [...]

October 1, 2009

The Good Life is moving. We’re in limbo. But it’s not as bad as it sounds.

Back on track

September 20, 2009

We arrived home yesterday to a mess. A newlywed mess. There’s not really a better term to describe everything right now – from all the empty boxes and gift paper scattered in our now-more-than-way-too-small living room to the fact that we’re seriously contemplating giving our 3 month notice on our apartment in about ten days.

A Year in Blogging

Followed by another, “different” livejournal (I changed usernames) followed by wordpress.com starting today. Back in 2007. I quit the LJ. Saved entries. Deleted the rest. And then as [...]

Whatever Shall I Do?

September 3, 2009

My goal of running two marathons this year was shattered back in May. Despite my PR at Burlington, I just knew I couldn’t dedicate myself to the training needed to run Philly well. Good thing I s’pose. Aside from the financial aspect of training for a marathon (registration, travel, etc…)  the whole working two jobs [...]
