NYC Vs. Boulder

If you can believe it, I just passed my four month mark on Saturday of living in Boulder. Hard to believe I’ve been here four months already. For those of you who don’t know, or didn’t realize, I had never been to Boulder, or even to Colorado, before I moved here. I had absolutely no [...]

Standing on your feet all day really can wear you out, especially when one foot is swollen, itchy and in pain. Not only from the fire ant bites I had gotten on the first two days, but from flip flop injuries–the worst of which was between the first two toes on the same foot as [...]
