Help me figure out where I should be.
I want both the mountains and the ocean. I need water in my life again. Where is the giant river or ocean when you need it? But! I don’t want to give up the mountains. Help me figure out where I should be.
_____ This reminded me of something I wrote on Facebook right before I graduated _____
I am looking for a job that will allow me to travel all over the world. Hopefully it would require...
Tonight
Didn’t make it to the gym tonight but I did get a ton of laundry done! Workout at home .. almost as good.
WatchI don’t have a video of my own this week … mine didn’t quite come out but Lauren’s came out well! Check her out!
Proud Daughter
My mom is awesome and NOW she has started her own awesome blog. So proud of her. :)
put a bird on it
I need to start thinking about what I want my next couple of months to look like. And even further. What I want my next year to look like. There might be big changes in the works.
WatchJust another day at the office.
I made this. And I actually really like it. →
Remember
remember that time you watched the Jetson Movie as an adult and realized how much it resembled what you imagined an acid trip to be like?
“In my return back through the passage, I heard the same words repeated twice...”
Sleep
I fell asleep so early last night. I wanted to go out and do something fun and have a ball with friends … and I got ready and sat down and fell asleep. I am oddly ok with that.
Observatory
Tonight I went to an observatory. It was so neat! I got to see a few planets and some clusters. It was so amazing. At the end, I spoke a bit with the professor running the event and he gave me some suggestions as to where in the area I could go to do similar gazing. I had such a nice time. It reminded me how much I love learning … I think I am going to look into PHD programs and also check...
Bakery
Not so secret desire - I want to open a bakery. I want to do it in Austin and I want to sell delicious scones, cakes, cupcakes, finger sandwiches and home made potato chips. I want there to be an unbelievable tea selection. I want there to be a small stage for local performers and an art section .. because food is inspiring and people should write/paint/draw and create in places where it is warm...
Lot Going On
There is a ton going on in my life lately. I want to update on all of it and I really want to get back to my quiet time. I am literally craving it at this point. But… I have to go to work. So, tonight. Tonight I will get a bottle of wine or more probable, some cold medicine, maybe a little Chinese food and an old movie and catch up with … myself.
Second Star to the Right
I am so excited for today/ tonight. Just a few more hours!!!
WatchI need to learn to stand closer to the camera. Tonight was a blast! I am in the back on the right.

WatchCan you find me? I missed one step but I am fairly proud of myself.
Cold?
Wondering why it was so cold in my apartment I checked the heater. Turns out, I forgot to turn it on. Lol. Oh my goodness. I am ridiculous sometimes.
Chuck Norris Karate
Today was a busy day at work. But that is boring to talk about so here is a story from when I was little:
I loved the Ninja Turtles when I was little. Wait. Who am I kidding? Loved? I love the Ninja Turtles. Neither here no there. Anyway, every Halloween I wanted to be a 50’s girl. Just give me a poodle skirt I would tell my mom. Every year. However, every day that wasn’t Halloween,...
Bowling
Dang it. I woke up at 4. First thought: I really want to go bowling. I just want to bowl, eat a hot dog, listen to music and walk around Denver. And I want to do all of that with someone who wants to do all of that too. Maybe be a little silly. Where is Jen Burkey when you need her? sigh.
Giants Win!!!
Yay! So excited! I wanted to do a happy dance but out of respect for Brenden and Alena, I refrained. Inside though - danced like there was no tomorrow.
WatchHard core sledding. We made a ramp of snow. It was a hit with all the kids.

Tumblr Ate My Posts
There was a post about hip hop and one about sledding. Both were eaten. I didn’t even notice. Once I hit the “create post” button, I rarely check to see if things have posted right. I just exit and go on my happy little way.
Anyway. Yesterday, I went snowboarding. I had a lot on my mind, so my first run was the return to basics. I even fell twice. That never happens anymore....
Downtown Abbey
I have heard massively wonderful things about this AND the first season is on Netflix. Who wants to curl up with me today and give it a go?
Email I Just Got
Hi all,
Wow, what a snowstorm! We are closing the office today, Friday. That means it is like the weekend—the office main phone line is on voicemail, no mail or UPS, you need your pass to access our floors, and there are no support services. Work from home to the extent possible and coordinate any deadlines with clients. Most of all stay safe!
SNOOOOOOWWWWW DAY! Who wants to play? I am thinking...
Lights Pulsating
Today was an ok day. So, that was as far as I got before I literally fell asleep on my keyboard. I’ll fill you in on tonight tomorrow. I am clearly too tired to do it right now.
Just know - it is snowing. It is snowing a lot. I am going to cuddle with my pillow now and watch it!
Two Night
Not a typo. Tonight I went two-stepping mostly because I needed something to distract myself. Oh man. First of all, while fun, everyone should know that two-stepping is just glorified walking. Literally, you just walk in a circle - first quickly for two steps and then slowly for one. (It helps if you say “quick quick slow” as you do it, as ridiculous as it sounds) That is it....
Deciding To Be Happy
Wasn’t enjoying my mood (sad, frustrated, uncertain and ya know all those things) so I decided to be happy today. Let’s go world. Bring it.
Remember
When I watched Gidget in the fifth grade and then tried to get everyone to call me Gidget. I am still trying.
tomorrow night
is going to be weird. The first Wednesday in awhile without a Wednesday night dinner.
