Things standing in the way of me and a nice little...
10 am meeting
finishing up a memo
cleaning out my office (have to move to a crappier one booooo)
throwing a bunch of stuff in a bag
sitting in car with cavapoo on lap
Being 26 and maintaining a positive relationship with yo mama involves much tongue biting and lots of “OF COURSE.”

I have a ton of neck and shoulder problems from when I used to be a swimmer (distance freestyle, you ruined me) and this chair I am sitting in is probably the least ergonomically correct in existence and I had to er, severe relations with my chiropractor because of an insurance mishap so I really really really really want a massage.
Any recommendations for a DC place that will fix me right up?

Just in case I’m not the last human on Earth to have been baffled by this acronym.
Thanks to my BFF for keeping me in the realm of cool.
I have been wondering what this meant but never asked someone.
I was kind of wondering if it meant something dirty and/or rude. Glad it doesn’t!

Hate of the day.
People who email/gchat/text/call out of nowhere just to brag about their lives. Glad you are going to Paris/buying a house/getting a new car.
If I haven’t talked to you in 6 months to a year and we live in the same city, chances are extremely high that I don’t give a shit.

Not ready for adulthood.
I just popped onto Fbook to check out a newly posted ring pic for a girl I know who just got engaged (gorgeous!).
Glanced over my feed and saw a girl from high school wearing a baby in a front facing carrier. In my 4:00 pm haze, my first thought was, “Hmmm.. it’s not Halloween. Why is she posting herself in costume as the guy from The Hangover?”
OHHHH RIGHT! Because it...

If anyone is ever on the market for an apartment in DC, hit me up. I am on a listserve that is supposed to be professionally oriented for people in my fellowship program, but instead it has become a microcosm of Craigslist apartment listings.
It would annoy me, but I have already helped find a roommate for one of Christian’s work friends, so I guess all the spam is worth something.

Coming at you to let you know that I have been drunk for approximately 24 hours, I am still completely full from brunch 6 hours ago, and there are three engagements and two new babies on my newsfeed.
Friday Questions.
After work, pre-Chin arrival and weekend of sweet sweet reunions..
Gym or manicure?
The countdown to chin's arrival is in the hours.
ohheyychrissy:
Today will be staring at my phone for updates on her journey, making a playlist for our pregames and generally getting super excited. That is all for now.
The next three days are basically going to look like this.
WOOOOOOOOOO!

My little bro is rolling into town tonight with a Uhaul full of his life, his girlfriend, their boxer, and apparently a ton of dirty laundry that needs some big sis TLC. Hope they have a safe and uneventful trek from Saratoga Springs and can’t wait to see him!!!

It’s another one of those “got to work and realized my dress was short and low cut” kinda days.

Monday memories.
The time my BFF and I hooked up with the same guy unbeknownst to either of us and then ran into him in the AU Tavern* while with our parents.
*Sadly, not an actual tavern, cause booze would have been most useful.

Monday musings.
My stomach feels like I ate ate rocks this weekend.
Every weekend I completely break my body with booze and food all the live long day, and then I spend Monday through Thursday eating carrots and hitting the treadmill to reboot. Something’s gotta give guys.
Weekend recap.
For the first time in a while, this weekend felt really long. In a good way. Lots of relaxing balanced with plenty of fun, and I actually feel refreshed for once.
Friday was for a long run at the gym, tasty takeout, and drinks on the balcony with my boys.
Saturday was for inexplicably waking up at 8 am and just going with it, dog park, new hair, shopping, a leisurely sidewalk lunch in Clarendon,...
