Casper the Ghost

Casper, Wyoming. WOW.

I love LA. Like, a lot.

Casper, Wyoming is this little town of 40,000 some people - living at 5400 feet elevation surrounded by snowtopped mountains and Walmart. Theres not really much else. Its a super mellow town, lots of big huge stores and a Kum & Go (which I still think is a hilarious name, but my mind typically wanders).

I'll be travelling there every week for the next 6 months or so (get out the tissue please). Getting there is crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrazy. Actually, getting home is that nutty part. We took this tiny little plane from Casper to Denver and you could feel EVERY little bump. I've never felt nautious on a plane and I've never almost hit my head from bouncing and jerking so much. At one point, I even said my prayers... and I have to do this next week and for the next 24 weeks. Thats alotta praying.

Anyway, on much more exciting news... I ran a 5K PR in Boston and threw up at the finishing line. HUUUGE!! And then I ran 4 miles through Newton during the Boston marathon, including Heartbreak Hill....soooooooooo fun. I love marathons and I love running. I'm sick!

Some of my favorites

I've been gathering a list of some of my favorites... just those little things that make me happy:

-Turning on my car with a full tank of gas
-Opening my fridge after I just went grocery shopping... so many choices!!
-A closet full of clothes, just after I did laundry
-A brand new pair of running socks!
-Eating a beautiful yellow banana...and really almost any fresh ripe fruit. MMMMM, good!
-Of course, watching a romantic comedy. HA!

HOW GREAT ARE THOSE?!

OOOOH, so I was hunted down the other night for saying I loved bad chic flicks after all... I DO love bad chic flicks, but ones like... The Wedding Planner, Save the Last Dance, Coyote Ugly. LOVE THEM. And I strongly dislike Kate Hudson flops. Poor girl... sometimes she picks amazing movies, sometimes... not so much.
