Moving on and settling down…all at once
Bust a MovePosted by beth on December 16, 2010
I’ve decided to forgo professionalism today. If I have to work on a snow day, I’m going to do it in the comfort of my jabambas by the fire. Plus, who wants to go outside today? Not this girl. And if I’m not going out, why shower? I’m just sayin’ is all. So yesterday I [...]
Merry Artistic ChristmasPosted by beth on December 14, 2010
My very good friend and favorite Skype companion, the lovely Miss DLF, recommended a book for me to read probably two years ago. I got it and started reading it, but then I got distracted from it somehow and put it down. Well. I picked it back up this morning, and wouldn’t you know it, [...]
Asheville Weekend in PicturesPosted by beth on October 20, 2010
One of my students requested that I take pictures of my trip to Asheville last weekend and post them here (hey Sarah!), and although I forgot my camera, Josh has a pretty good one on her phone, so here we go (thanks Josh!)! We spent Friday afternoon wandering around downtown, trying to find me a [...]
Social Event of the SeasonPosted by beth on October 15, 2010
As you may already know, The Container Store is opening in Raleigh this weekend. And since I hosted that giveaway a while back, they gave me a ticket to a “private” preview party, which took place last night. L-Josh and I went, and Amaris was supposed to come too, but she got…lost? Yeah, we’ll call [...]
I hate you, Chubby Jones, but I love you for it.Posted by beth on September 6, 2010
This morning, I went on my first solo run. Up til now, I’ve always gone jogging with at least one Josh, but Whitney’s out of town, and Lauren was hanging with her family, so today I went by myself. To keep myself on track with the timing, I downloaded a podcast designed specifically to help [...]
1/2 Marathon Training: Day 1Posted by beth on August 14, 2010
Well, you’ll never believe it, but Josh and Josh and I got up and went running this morning. Now, by “got up,” I mean “woke up naturally,” and by “running,” I mean “running and walking, but mostly walking.” But still, for me, that’s pretty miraculous. Lauren started doing this “Couch to 5K” running program, and [...]
The Ocean: Better than a neti potPosted by beth on August 6, 2010
In the past 48 hours, I have gotten in two good workouts and sufficiently cleared out my sinuses, which I didn’t even know were full. I’ve also worked on evening out my tan a little bit, which is no small feat, let me tell you, considering the bizarre kayak burn I got two weeks ago. [...]
“I am,” I said.Posted by beth on July 23, 2010
I live in a musical, if only in my own mind. There’s always a song playing in my head, always a lyric to fit the occasion, and if I had my way, we’d all burst into spontaneous, choreographed dance in the streets daily. The weather (natural lighting) would also fit our moods, and our outfits [...]
Real QuickPosted by beth on July 22, 2010
I want to tell y’all this story really fast before I go to see Iron Man 2 with my roommate. I don’t think I’ve already told it, but if I have, forgive me. So my friend Rae was at this thing one night. I don’t really know what to call it. I’d say it was [...]
Jesus Is Totally RadicalPosted by beth on July 21, 2010
This is not necessarily a story I want to write with my life, but seeing as I do not have that post finished yet, and this just came up the other day, I figured I’d tell y’all about it. I was talking to Emily Furr Hogan about that summer (I think it was ’98) when [...]
