Silence is Golden
My life has been crazy lately. I have a ridiculous day at work, only to come home and have a ridiculous amount of things to do. It is driving me crazy.

One thing that was bothering me was that my apartment was a mess. Trashed. Complete Disaster Area. But I could never find the time to do a Big Fat Cleaning session. You know who came and saved the day, right? Mom. Mom and Dad came up to visit for my birthday (and to see the musical Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat - LOVE). They arrived on Saturday and Mom and I busted our humps to get my apartment back to a sparkling condition. It's amazing how coming home to a clean apartment makes me feel just a little bit more in control.

Work is still pretty chaotic, but I'm surviving. I've started doing yoga over lunch on Monday and Wednesday. I will admit that it does add a little bit of stress to my day because class is an hour so I have to take an extra long lunch, but in the end it is worth it. I'm hoping that I stick with this - I forgot how great I feel after yoga. And my body? It is slowly starting to remember how to be bendy. My legs are especially tight, but I can already tell that they're loosening up a bit.

And I'm ready to start my Pre-Marathon-Training-Training and I want to run outside and I can't (aka won't) because DUDE. It has been obscenely cold lately (I got back from the bars on Friday night to discover that it was 12 DEGREES BELOW ZERO while we were standing around, hailing a cab. GAH) and I'm no Steve. I don't run outside when the windchill is -24. I'm ready for this crap Minnesota weather to move along.

And I am officially tired of hearing myself whine (hence the lack of posts lately)...so it's time for the happy-action-fun-time section of this post.

My life rocks because:
  • My parents are fantastic. They drive up for a relaxing visit...and I put them to work. And they still love me!!
  • I saw Avenue Q and Joseph this month. I heart musicals.
  • I got a pedicure and now my feet are beeeeautiful.
  • The hot neighbor called last week. I like talking to hot people (That's why I like talking to YOU. You're hot!).
  • I signed up for Grandma's marathon.
  • I went dancing with the girls this weekend. I love shaking my groove thang.
  • I booked a February trip to Boston to visit my "sisters" and the Annual March Colorado Ski Trip plans are in the works. Yay for vacations!!
  • I hit the shoe jackpot a few weeks ago - I got three pairs for under $30 total(including a pair of pointy purple patent pumps (say that three times fast!)). Scandalous!
