Toe Beans

This is a bit of a departure from what I usually post here (or don’t, as the case may be in recent years) but if you’ve read my bio page, you will know that I have hopes and aspirations of being recognized as the female version of Weird Al Yankovic. In an attempt to get closer to that goal, I was lucky enough to get the blessing from my boss to rewrite the lyrics to Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” and…

Foam Rollin' With Da Homies

Hey there friends, runners, and those who are cursing my name while clocking miles! It’s been such a long time since I’ve done a check-in that WordPress doesn’t even look the same anymore. I didn’t think too many more things could make me feel older but here we are. I’ve continued to restart my Couch to 5k training every year — some years are a little better than others — I actually had a PR…

The Most Interesting Songs I've Heard This Week

The Most Interesting Songs I’ve Heard This Week

One of the saddest movies we were ever subjected to as children was based on Ray Bradbury’s short story, All Summer In A Day. It’s the one where this little girl who lives on a different planet where it rains all the time, gets bullied and ends up locked away during the one day the sun comes out and everyone is too psyched to be soaking up the sun to go and get this poor child out of the closet…

Couch to 5k Week 9 Version 4

FINALLY Week 9 version 4 of my #c25k podcast is up & ready to get sweaty to.

Hey Homeslices, I’m back with a new podcast to round out version 4 of this podcast series! Since it’s 2017 and, well, EVERYTHING, I did things a little bit differently (like, very, very slightly different) at the beginning of this podcast. If you don’t like change, try it anyway. If you are completely resistant, you can fast forward to about the 2:40 mark to start our usual walking warm-up.…

Couch to 5k Podcast: Week 6 V4

Couch to 5k Podcast: Week 6 V4

I’ve been doing a lot of meditating recently – I don’t know if I finally reached the age where I’m ok with alone time, or because I’m trying to deal with all the changes happening at once in my life in a way that doesn’t turn me into the shorter, less-green version of The Incredible Hulk, the insane dark dark darkness of this time of year, or what – but I somehow came to a few realizations that I…
