I’ve got to stop sitting in movie theaters after running. So, you remember high school English? When they taught you about foreshadowing? Yeah. So that message came from K-Rob-D. Sunday evening. It’s the first time in my life I actually get to take part in winter break. And not work other jobs straight through it. … Continue reading Missing My Life’s Purpose

Annual Star Wars Night
Midnight. That’s what time I got home last night. And maybe I spent the day grazing through the piles of food in my desk drawer. But I didn’t have an actual meal at any point during the day. And I didn’t eat when I got home from work. Because I haven’t been to the grocery … Continue reading Annual Star Wars Night
Caution: Leg Day
Tina Fey has been training my co-workers. On how to manage me when she leaves. You walk in and she’s crying. What do you do? Give her food. She’s smiling. Looks happy. What do you do? Give her food. She is existing anywhere near you. What do you do? Give her food. We get this, … Continue reading Caution: Leg Day
Pre-January
No. No no no no no no no no no no. Coffee Lady! I may have lost my shit a teeny tiny bit this morning. And run down the hall yelling for the Coffee Lady. After tearing through several cabinets. And closets. And drawers. And maybe some offices... In a desperate search for coffee. No … Continue reading Pre-January
North Mountain Challenge Drama
Before I tell you this story, let me just say that I only had one cup of coffee before we ran the mountain this morning. Plus. North Fucking Mountain. Very little good ever happens there. For me.

Unplanned Three Day Weekend
So, unplanned three day weekend. Because rain. I mean, that’s what I thought when the dogs still insisted on getting up at 5:00am to go pee. And I was extra pissy. Because first, I cannot explain to you how much a snow day today throws my entire year off track. Like, I literally cannot even … Continue reading Unplanned Three Day Weekend
National Endurance Day
So, everything hurts. Like, everything. Things hurt that I don’t even understand why they hurt. It all hurts. Where in hell did I find these people? Y’all. When Beautiful Beastie creates a Facebook event. And calls it Endurance Day. Like that’s an actual fucking holiday or something. Maybe keep scrolling. Because this chick. The other … Continue reading National Endurance Day
Tina Fey Broke Up With Me
I’ve got this video on my phone. Of my Tahani. My little Tina Fey clone. Doing this goofy little Tina Fey dance. And just being generally awesome. I keep watching it. And crying. Like a fucking stalker. Or a crazy ex-girlfriend. I’ve never actually been one of those. I’ve never been invested enough. But I … Continue reading Tina Fey Broke Up With Me
We Love Her More Than Iron Mountain
So, we’ve established that I’m not a good liar, right? I’m not good at playing things off. It’s my face. That bitch gives me away every damn time. And then my brain gets involved and I start stumbling around shit. Neither of them can be trusted. So why, then, was I the person placed in … Continue reading We Love Her More Than Iron Mountain
Average Tuesday Night
Everything hurts. I spent the entire day yesterday watching my phone. I mean, working, too. Obviously. But also, just watching. My phone. Just waiting for these people to cancel North Mountain. Who the fuck runs North Fucking Mountain on a Tuesday night? In December? In the middle of Fall SOL testing? Apparently us. If it … Continue reading Average Tuesday Night
