24
After last weekend’s beach adventure that saw the return of Cherry Man, I spent the last week recovering. Monday and Tuesday were given over to slathering massive amounts of green aloe vera gel on my sunburned face in a desperate attempt to try and speed the recovery process, and Wednesday and Thursday were spent shedding…

Sidecars
I’m fairly certain I already covered this in a previous post, but last week was pretty rock-solid awesome. Between the running, the biking, the 5K, the soccer game, etc., I was both really really pleased with myself and really, really exhausted on Friday night. I did what the cool kids did and took a nap…

Valentines Day Adventures
I suppose since I am dating someone I can’t really call Valentines Day Singles Awareness Day this year. Bummer. I rather enjoyed having a really good reason to be kind of surly. It’s the only other day of the year I can bust out my Dr. House routine. Oh well. Yesterday started out on a…

Taco Bell…foodstuffs…and that weight loss post
I promise, it’s a coincidence that these two topics are being conjoined into one post. By now most people have probably heard about the lawsuit against Taco Bell for calling their tasty meat-like filling beef. When I had heard on NPR that you needed your beef to be at least 70% beef, I figured Taco…

Christening the Le Creuset
Last week I got my Le Creuset and resolved to break it in soon, which I was able to do tonight when I made scalloped potatoes with some leftover ham from Easter last year that’s been sitting in my freezer for the last nine months. Tasty. I basically began with the recipe in my Better…

My big empty deck
My deck now sits empty, thanks to the new rules regarding grills and the snow, but fear not. I have a plan to return it to it’s previous state of awesome. I didn’t do a whole lot with the deck this summer because it was still a work in progress. I realize it can be…

2011: now with that fresh, new year smell!
I had originally planned on doing a couple of posts somewhere between last Thursday’s meatfest and today, but the last week’s been kind of crazy. Because I’m lazy and don’t feel like duplicating efforts, I have decided that my Christmas shall be documented in picture form. Easier on the eyes, and easier on my fingers.…

Puppies and Meatfest
To those of you who have been clamoring for pictures to liven up the blog, consider your needs met. This post contains approximately 3 times more pictures than the rest of this entire blog put together. Last night I began the simultaneously sad and awesome process of retiring my grill. For my birthday I had…

Well, we still lost.
But not because I was on goal, because I wasn’t. We got someone else from the Rangers to sub in for us, and it went pretty well. Instead of a blowout game we lost by a more reasonable score (8-4), and while we kind of gave away the first five points, we made them work…

Listless
Tonight I find myself wondering where all the time went. Seriously. Tomorrow: Sam’s Club with my mom to restock my freezer, Christmas cookie baking for Friday night’s office party/cookie exchange, my debut as goalie at a 4pm soccer game, and presentation prep for a VoIP phone demo on Monday morning at 9. Monday night there’s…
