let’s run wild.

I fall in love every time I board a plane or take a drive beyond the city limits. I love this world so much. I am in love with these places all around me- they capture me, draw me in and inspire me to want to be a person of worth. Recently, I found myself…

San Francisco Part 2.

After we left our shows in Berkeley, we naturally had to go get some In ‘n’ Out Burger before parking the Tahoe for a nights rest. With the mix of the stubbornness that is our friendship, the over tiredness from the weekend and the aching bodies from dancing we were quickly frustrated with the lack of planning…

Berkeley, CA.

I felt the cool Northern California breeze rush through my bones as it snuck its way into my sleeping bag. I shivered and rolled over, amused by the sight of my friends all piled up together in the middle of Berkeley. Only a few crazies would do this, but I’m glad those crazies were my…

San Francisco Part 1.

With the sun beating through the Tahoe windows the next morning, I put on my glasses and peered up over the front window to see the beautiful mountains saying good morning. What a view to wake to! Before we could ever stretch, C jumped into the front seat, revved up the engine and away we…

bad-assiest.

Seattle. Traffic. Is. The. Worst. One hour, I repeat, one hour, to make it down 3 blocks in the city last Friday afternoon. What. The. Hell. It was a rough day and we were ready for this much needed weekend away from the city. However, with traffic like this- it wasn’t looking like that was…

Yesterday’s Adventure.

Thursday. Oh, what a happy day Thursday was. My favorite of all the days. This particular Thursday was extra special and seemingly perfect. The weather was again, oh so perfect, too perfect. C and I headed down to the waterfront for some casual midday dog walking. I had the pleasure of slowly wandering along with an…

Departure Part1

Thursday night before my departure I didn’t sleep very well. I tossed and turned all night long wondering if I was making the right decision. As part of my personality, I’m constantly worrying about taking the ‘right’ path and making the decisions that will make me the happiest in the long run. My students kept…

SPAC- Til We Dance Away..

I spent this past weekend in Saratoga Springs, New York for a little Dave Matthews Band weekend. I’ve only been to New York one other time and the East Coast only a handful so I’m not the most familiar with the area. Ignorantly in my mind, everything on the East Coast is within like, 3…

Get Up and Go.

When I was 19 years old I thought I was going through a mid-life crisis. I wasn’t happy with how college was going, I couldn’t decide on a career path, and my restless heart had me constantly looking around at someplace to go and something new to see. This was the end of my sophomore year…

We’re All Mad Here

Summertime is almost here! It’s time to say buh-bye to those winter blues, bust out the ‘ole sunnies and slap on that sunscreen. The days are longer, the weather is nicer and people are just plain ole more fun to be around. Oh, and for us that may be slightly insane, summertime means one thing…
