List of Last Week's Labors of Love - Birthday Edition

- happy birthday, baby blog!  This weekend, R'N'F turned 2.  

Remember this?

Or how about this ?
Fun fact: Rob Pattinson was the first dude to grace the end of the blog.  

...

REALLY?!  ROB PATTINSON!?  Not Christian Bale or ... Christian Bale?

 

Another fun fact: I have a Pinterest board titled "End of the Blog" so I can curate a collection of hot dudes.  

You're welcome.

The Case for a Marathon - In Honor of Boston

I am not a very successful marathoner.  Yes, I finished one...  "Finished" being the key word... Not "ran".

Nevertheless, after completing that marathon, I was pretty sure I wanted to do another one.

And now I'm sure.

Because finish lines should look like this:

Or this:

Not like... well, you know.

I want to run another marathon because there's so many good people in the world.

Because it's a marathon (if you've done one, you know).

Because it sucks to be scared (of failure or life in general).

Because I'm so angry.

Because of all the people who were supporting, finishing, and volunteering in Boston 9 days ago.  

Because I want to run across the finish line at 4:09:23 and shatter my first result and my fear.

List of Last Week's Labors of Love - Late Night Edition

HEY-O.  It's been a long time.  SORRY.  I had this thought that if I didn't blog I'd have more time to do... you know, stuff.  

And guess what?  

I got LAZIER.  

Granted, I was rehearsing for a little show, practicing the ballrooms, momming the ladies, while trying to keep the layer of construction dust to a minimum AND  avoiding folding laundry, but really, not blogging hasn't saved me any time.  

Experiment over, people.  

It's on.

- Upside Down Hour.  Doesn't everyone have this?

- Zoo's first photo.

- I wasn't impressed by the photo because that girl clicks around on my iPhone like I play Super Mario Bros. (ALLTHEBUTTONS, ALLTHETIME!).  But the screen shot?  I know capable adults who haven't mastered it.

- I made a thing and it was delicious.  

- I got a thing in the mail.  It's a sparkly thing.  It's a secret sparkly thing.  

- I stared at this cover for about 5 minutes at Target.  It gives me chills. The woman cop leading the way!  The old man finishing AND falling!  The debris!  The location of the photographer!  The action!  The circumstances!  

Let's not talk about last week right now because... HOW MANY REASONS DO YOU WANT?

But I will talk about it more on Wednesday because... THE FEELS!
