There are certain ways to start your morning, maybe with a nice cup of tea and a breakfast made for champions. But nearly choking to death is definitely not one of them. But that’s what happened this morning, as I was eating a piece of string cheese while running around my apartment. I was in [...]

I was sitting in bed last night writing in my pretty turquoise journal, all inspired after reading 80 pages of The Alchemist, and I started thinking back over my travels. I actually do this a lot, this whole reminiscing on my trip. I learned so much while traveling and it had such a huge impact [...]

So if you follow me on Twitter, which you should be, you have heard me talk about my second home. The place where I pretty much spend all of my days, and even some evenings. That home? Barnes and Nobles. I love me some free internet (especially since I don’t have any at home), good [...]

*Not Suitable For Vegetarians The nicest thing about my new apartment is the size. It’s a two floor condo with a nice kitchen, dining nook, living room, balcony and a half bath upstairs, 2 bedrooms and a full bath and storage room downstairs. My NYC two bedroom apartment would fit comfortably in the living room. [...]

I moved to Boulder three weeks ago Saturday. This fact is amazing to me, in many ways. First off, how has it ONLY been three weeks?! Secondly, HOW HAVE I BEEN HERE THREE WEEKS ALREADY?!! What a crazy, crazy three weeks it has been. I remember the feeling I had as I was driving through [...]

The snow is descending on Boulder. I’m watching it come down in over the mountains, enveloping them in a snowy fog. As I write this, big fat snowflakes just started falling and I can no longer see the mountains. That’s the fun thing about this town: watching the storm surge over these beautiful peaks before [...]

As I get more settled into my new home in Boulder, and settling back into my independent lifestyle, I have noticed that I’m also settling back into old, bad habits. Habits I wanted to kick when I left NYC. These included: My unhealthy eating habits. These include salty foods, sugar rushes, caffiene overloads, carbs galore [...]

Can we talk for a second about this man? At a dinner party that we hosted the other night with Monica and her friend Emily, there was mutual agreement that Michael Buble was sexy. That voice…MMMM…that voice. Wow. He could serenade me with “I hate you, I hate you, I hate you…” and I’d still [...]

One of the biggest changes I’ve had to deal with, outside of adjusting to consistently sunny days (which, really, is an adjustment we all could get used to), is the time difference. It’s not that I’m having difficulties (more so than the usual) sleeping. My body has adjusted fairly well. It’s my parents who haven’t. [...]
