January 21st, 2010 While many Sacramentans I know turn their nose up at eating at such a well-known place in Midtown, I don’t care. There’s a reason this place is popular, busy and well-loved: because it’s awesome.
Located on Capitol Avenue, literally in the heart of Midtown, Paesanos has been one of my favorite restaurants in Sacramento for years. In fact, it’s the first restaurant I ever dined at in Midtown—and ever

So, you can judge me all you want, but let me tell you what my reaction was after seeing this yesterday:
Scream LOUDLY. Like, so loud that the custodian cleaning the classroom two doors down came rushing into my room to check on me, only to see me… DOING A VICTORY LAP. Complete with little hops and jumps and arms pumping and a TWIRL because I was wearing a

January 20th, 2010 Brandy is a friend, a fellow teacher and a lover of both dairy and CAPS ATTACK! I couldn’t resist posting this for her and her Hot Awesome Dude, who was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, an incurable cancer.
We love you, Brandy! And sadly. my blog is being temperamental and won’t post the video that accompanies this post…but, the important stuff is still there. Click over to donate to Love Harder.

Have you ever written a post, published it and then felt “uh-oh, I shared too much this time”? Or one that has caused problems in your “real life”? What

January 19th, 2010 Once upon a time, I was one of those hot yoga people. The kind who woke up every morning and attended a 5:30 am class. The kind who talked about it as a religious experience and loved every minute of it. Due to a variety of issues, I had to stop attending, and then started going once a week with a friend. When that friendship fizzled, so did my yoga

January 19th, 2010 It was a long, lovely weekend. I have decided to never work another Monday, though I doubt that my boss/students would appreciate that. Still, being off work an additional day was glorious. So, what did you do this weekend?
I spent my Saturday morning at running club (you can read more about that over at Skinny Titch!)
I spent my afternoon

January 18th, 2010 So, wow. You guys had some awesome, creative questions! Here are a few of them, and my answers.
How many friends do you really have, you know, the ones you can call anytime and just chat? — from MaryJo
Well, first of all, you should probably know that I am not a phone person, like, at all. BUT…I think I know what you’re getting at. If I needed something, do

So, I’m curious: what do YOU want to know about ME?
I figure that everyday, I come here and FOIST information upon you all, whether you’re interested or not. I’ve seen a few other bloggers do this, so I thought I’d jump on the bandwagon. What do you want to know? Barring any sort of icky, NSFW question, or a very specific work

January 15th, 2010 And it’s with a pair of pants.
These are the glorious pants I referenced yesterday, and they are from Gap. In case you are searching, they can be found here. They are basically amazing—soft (they don’t call them the Supersoft Lounge Pants for anything!) but not fleecy, warm but not heavy. They also sell matching sweatshirts. As a sweats person (I change into them immediately when I get home!)

January 14th, 2010 As you may or may not know, I live near Sacramento, California. I grew up in a tiny town about 20 miles away before moving into the heart of Midtown Sac at age 21. I loved it there, but when Andrew and I got an apartment together, we chose to live in the suburbs because…I don’t really know. I’ve been out of the city for almost a year, but in
