I was grounded this past weekend. You might be asking yourself from what was I grounded? I mean I’m almost 25. Was I sneaking out past my non-existent curfew? Not exactly. You see, I wasn’t grounded for doing anything wrong per se, rather I was grounded from doing too many activities. I’m perhaps a little … Continue reading »

DC chilling
“DC really only started becoming cool like five years ago,” my friend Liz explained as we ate red velvet cake at Founding Farmers restaurant in Washington DC this past Saturday. I have no what DC was like pre-2008, but I was definitely impressed with how much fun I had during my brief time in the … Continue reading »
Virginia rocks
Living in Colorado I am pretty spoiled with stunning natural beauty on a regular basis. It’s a hard state to beat. I mean my casual after work runs involve this view: Mount Falcon sunset trail run. Or what I like to call Thursday night. However, I am happy to report that Virginia now ranks highly … Continue reading »

1803 was a good year
I have recently decided that 1803 was a spectacular year. Why? The Louisiana Purchase. Thank you Thomas Jefferson! The best $15 million investment that brought the United States the mountains in Colorado and New Orleans. Last week, my friends and I went on a whirlwind two day trip for a concert in New Orleans, which … Continue reading »

The Amazing Race: Eastern Tennessee
This past weekend, I finally got out of the ATL for some fun times in Nashvegas! I met one of my college sorority sisters there, because it is really quite a reasonable four hour drive from Atlanta, and we had an awesome time. I will say that if you’re a fan of the movie “Coyote … Continue reading »
