25 Things.
I’m going to try and do this in short sentences for you lazy readers out there (aka me)
It’s 10:22pm and I just got home, but 4 day weekend commence!
I wrote a draft around 3pm today, but was too busy to post it, but it went like this, “my body is tired, and I hate running, and I am so busy at work, and I hate running, and I have so many errands to run in life these days, and...

"Hardcore"
I am not hardcore, in anything I really do, but especially not in running and working out.
And y’know what? I have zero desire to be ‘hardcore,’ in fact, I never ever want to be classified as a “hardcore runner and/or gym person.”
I have resigned to the fact that working out/running is something I’ll have to do for the rest of my life, because a) I love food...

There is nothing worse in this world than feeling fat and seeing someone take a photo of you.
And then there is nothing better in this word than seeing the photo, and realizing you weren’t looking fat after all.
~ My Week ~
It must be noted it’s a 3 day week for me! Friday is Canada’s Day (the 1st is way cooler than the 4th, haven’t you heard? :) ), and I’m taking Thursday off to spend a sunny day with my sister!
This week also marks the end of the 5 and 5 in 30 challenge, so I’m trying my best to go out on a bang… paleo-perfection FTW!
Tuesday I’ll toss out a 6k tempo run...

23k (14.4 miles) done before noon!
First run in a long time I’m really proud of myself for. Ran with a faster pace group - 6:40 per km // 10:30 per mile pace - and kept up with no issues. Yay!
Brunch time!
Long Posts are the new Black.
Good week. Fast week. Solid week. And in 5 hours it’s the weekend! But this is the problem, I’m always so excited for the weekend, but then come Friday I’m just POOPED from the week’s shenanigans, and all I want to do is snooze the weekend away.
Do you guys ever wonder what will happen if you die? Well, while I was busy not being on the Internet yesterday, I kept thinking about that previous...

Did you guys get all my telepathic posts to you? I was sending them your way all morning! Next time, pay attention. Jeesh.
I’m soooo lazy today, it’s hard to think straight, let alone type. O.k., o.k., it’s probably the whole lack-of-carbs thing, because I actually got 9+ hours of sleep last night. WTF world, today is boring, I want something exciting to happen. Something more...
Four Photos Before 4pm on Tuesday, June 21, 2011
Breakfast: Oh the dilemma I find myself in each morning… I’ll cut to the smelly chase; eggs? Eggs smell. Like really, like ewwww. It has become an office joke that my “natural aroma” is an egg. There is no way around this. I googled it. Eggs are smelly. At first I didn’t care, smell-the-sulfur-aroma-boys-this-is-what-eating-healthy-and-getting-sexy-smells-like, but truth be told? I can’t...
Sometimes I get excited. About what? I’m not sure. Little moments will happen, and then I get an overwhelming sense of excitement about everything; about life. It comes in various, unexpected forms, a simple ‘poke’ on Facebook, the right song driving along in my car, a small txt msg from a friend, fresh flowers in my room, an email from a reader or a smile from a boy in the elevator,...
At approximately 2 minutes ago, the cheese and I made eyes at each other. I’ll admit, I had a moment of lust - desire, if you will - but luckily snapped out of it with memories of the past; been there. done that. And so I turned to the apple, said good day to the cheese, and got on with my night. Another perfect day of Paleo complete.

Wedding Bliss.
I’ve always thought if (when?) I get married, I’d keep it small, so small it may involve a white, summer dress, and a stroll to city hall. Cheap n’ simple. No need to be extravagant, immediate family and close friends would be all I need, and then a backyard bbq to celebrate the vows, and of course a week (or two) in Paris and/or London and/or Bora Bora… BUT, then I went to my good friends’...
It's never too early to start beefing up your...
Tonight: Rock Climbing!!! I have ZERO upper body strength, so this should be interesting [and painful].
And…
August 6th, at 5:30pm: The CN Tower’s new Edgewalk. OMIGOD YOU GUYS!! I’ll be walking around the edge of the CN Tower 356 metres (1,168 feet) above the ground. Holy hell, I’m not scared of heights… but LOOOOOOOK! Eeeeeek! This is going to scare the...
It’s Thursday! It’s Thursday! Gotta get down on Thursday. I swear when the weather is sunny, the whole world is in a better mood. OR, maybe it’s because I have befriended the scale gods, and we’re working together as a team? There’s a certain umph! in my step when I’m running and eating right, like it don’t matter what you or your mama say about me,...

i’ll start by saying i don’t know where this post is going. i’m just just thinking out loud through my hands…
there is something so honest about writing at night, something so safe that i like. it’s like the internet is sleeping and there’s no one out there to read my words, no one to judge my random thoughts.
a nice, safe place, the internet is at night.

Make a wish
From the moment I learned 11:11 gave me another chance to make a wish, I would squeeze my eyes shut, hold my breath, and wish with all my heart, “I wish I was thin.”
For years.
And years.
And years.
But, I’m pleased to report, I just signed into my blog, and glanced at the little clock, which happened to read those four little ones, and I paused to make a...

Gah! Work is busy-busy-busy, and I am an array of many different shades of tired, which is proving to be quite the conundrum. I just want to bang on my drums all day, and by that, I obviously mean snooooooze all day long, preferably in the sun, but my bed would be cool too.
However, my nap time will have to wait until tonight, as oh-so-very-sadly right after work I’m running 13k. File...
