The Book Warehouse is a little independent bookstore in Oviedo that is sadly closing. Tomorrow (Thursday) is their LAST DAY and right now all books are $1. ALL BOOKS ARE $1. It’s crazy, because there are some great books! My kids aren’t big readers. But I tell you, tell them they can have anything in…
This past weekend I hit the 50% mark of my yearly biking goal! Over 1,000 miles have been logged on the bike. Now, a lot of that is spin class, but it counts and damn it…it’s not easy to do it every morning at 6am. At this pace, I’ll almost double my yearly goal!! I…
This has been the longest week. I mean…just emotionally draining. I’m shocked, horrified, annoyed, angry, sad, grateful… Such a mix of emotions. A few rambling thoughts I felt I had to share: I’m so impressed with runners. I can’t imagine what it’s like to run 26 miles, as I can’t even run one. No lie. …

I can’t go to Chicago without hitting up some of my favorite restaurants and finding my favorite Chicago food. This time, I didn’t go to my favorite pizza place. I didn’t even have a SINGLE ONE of these: I don’t know why I didn’t. I just didn’t. Instead, I went back to a place I…
ACTUAL CONVERSATION: Random student: “It’s so great you came back! What year did you graduate?” Me: “1994” Random student: “Oh…1994 is the year I was born! Cool!” Me: DYING….. Now – repeat this conversation about 300 times and that was my Friday night back at my high school. While I felt like an old lady…
March 2013: 259.50 miles on the bike – 135,085 pounds lifted Not too much to say about this month. Overall, I’m happy with my pace and commitment. I’ve been able to bike outside more since the weather has been nicer. I was so sick at the beginning of March that it didn’t get off to…
Up until I met my husband, I never knew what a “Speak Easy” was. I never even heard of it. He, on the other hand, uses that word for all of his user names…even on twitter!! It’s always been his thing. He’s been talking about opening his own forever. Well, someone finally got smart and…
Based on a press release sent to me early this morning, the answer may be yes. Listen, I’m all about the bacon. When cooked properly, it’s the most magical thing ever. Exhibit A– BaconOff. However, the latest bacon-inspired products may be a bit disturbed. I give you…Bacon Condoms. The press release actually says, “Make Your…
I don’t know if it’s the crappy weather outside, but this morning’s bike ride was quite the adventure! It’s nice and overcast, and there were a few sprinkles along the way. But nothing too bad…although the wind is getting pretty fierce out there! I’ve mentioned it before, but the area behind my house is some…
