Alishan, Tanya and I all coincidentally share the same china.

Best grab bag gift ever (that would be a bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau, from our First Official Book Club Holiday Grab Bag).

Now I’m off to put on my uniform (yoga pants, tee, long cardigan) and watch the Biggest Loser while eating chocolate chips (no, the irony is not lost on me) in bed.

Weekend Shenanigans

The window displays of Bergdorf Goodman along 5th Avenue

speechless.

Oh, I loved them. We stood outside each one for what seemed like forever, just taking them in.

I love, love, love this...

I love, love, love this song.

Today I completed a run that I didn’t think I had in me.

I went faster, farther and longer than I thought I could.

The lesson here is: never underestimate yourself (or the power of a really fantastic playlist).

allthingsalishan:

Have you ever had a day where you just feel off and without even saying anything about it, someone far away will ask you if you’re ok?

Have you ever met people that love you without judgement? People you want to share the world with, who you email daily because life sucks and it’s completely unfair that you’re not in the same city?

What about people that genuinely *get* you? People that understand when you get a case of the crazies and can talk you down and tell you it’s ok without being patronizing. People that you can gossip with and trust in your heart that if there were ever an issue that they would come to you? People that you don’t have to agree on everything with but you will always respect. People that value you as much as you value them?

These are my people. I thank them often for being them. Today is one of those days where I appreciate it more than others. They are lifers and I am a better person because of it.

Yes. To all of it (with a few tears thrown in because apparently I am very emotional about how lucky I am).

The truth is, not a day goes by that I don’t wish the three of us lived in the same city. That I don’t wish we could just meet up for nachos and ~~beer~~ cider and discussions about life, love, careers and the state of our footwear.

But they’re already part of my daily lives, even though we’re miles apart. And, to borrow from Alishan, I’m a better person for it.

Met up with the birthday girl herself, Beth, and our friend Rachel for impromptu drinks that somehow turned into 2 bottles of wine (plus glasses of complimentary champagne), baked brie in a puff pastry served with apple slices, cauliflower, potato and garlic au gratin with homemade potato chips, pita points drizzled with honey and served with cinnamon ice cream and a fresh bag of donuts served with two dipping sauces.

Um, yeah. It was epic.

Lots (and I do mean lots) of wine last night = an emergency bagel this morning. Yes, I went out in this disgusting weather to get it. In my pajamas.

I don’t plan on leaving the apartment again, however. It’s just me, a Harry Potter marathon, Christmas cards, a pot of chili and, yes, my pajamas for the rest of the day.

It’s probably for the best I missed out on this beauty. My inner (wanna-be) Grecian goddess will have to manifest in other ways.
