Hello 1987...

Is it really November?...Geez...
Pretty soon I'll be decking the halls and watching Elf like its my job.  Oh, and burning overpriced Yankee candles because the smell of "Christmas Eve" is worth the nostalgic moment when your nose hits the jar,...and suddenly you're standing in front of your stocking at 7 years old in the horrible onesie zipper pj's that are guaranteed to cause severe sweating and prevent an emergency trip to the bathroom.
You know exactly what I'm talking about.
And heck yes I would rock a pair at 31 years old.  You mean to tell me I can basically have my socks attached to my pants?  Umm heck yes, sign me up.  At 2am I'm never thrilled about searching for a missing sock in the sheets.
Horrible.

Equinox life is treating me very well.  Honestly, I am thrilled with the club, my growth, and the push from my managers to constantly improve.  Sleep deprived?  Eh, maybe,...but whatever, I love what I do, and God made coffee.
Look at me Mom, problem solver.
But seriously, my move to NY has only been confirmed over and over.  I feel extremely blessed.

In random city news, my shin splints are finally healing from all the walking.  Only took over 4 weeks...ha.  I've also invested in leg warmers.  These things make absolute sense to me now.
Its chilly in the morning....Spandex pants expose ankles....Ankles get cold....I have a secret desire to relive the 80's....Answer: leg warmers.
Logical, progressive thinking.
And honestly, I might fully commit to the look and crimp the hair simply because it feels right.  Throw in a scrunchy and some acid-wash and I'll pretty much live free in my own little 80s dream.
Judge me.  Fine.  Not your dream.

So, holidays are coming up and I'll be completely candid and say that I am fully preparing to miss the heck out of my family.  I will be with them for Christmas, but it is the first time ever that I won't be with them on Thanksgiving.
It saddens me, yes, but its just a year of change.  I miss my nieces and nephew like there's no tomorrow and spend quite a bit of time scrolling through their pictures and videos.  It definitely puts quality time spent together in perspective...

On that note, I am headed out for round 8 of coffee.
First step is admitting you have a problem.
I fully admit I have a problem...

  1. Thank God for technology (and having the time to read). I love your antics and see that NYC is suiting you well. Like there was ever any doubt ;)

    Sounds like you will be very easy to shop for this year! Footie PJs, leg warmers, scrunchies, (do they still make LA Gear?) So long as "leotard" never makes an appearance I think you're good.
