• I started using Patreon to support my favorite podcast, I’ll Have Another with Lindsey Hein. Isn’t it awesome there’s so much content out there, and a multitude of ways to take it in (blogs, podcasts, vlogs & youtube, etc.)? What a time to be alive, folks. (Ha, not that garbage content and content-overload are not huge issues…)
  • Speaking of podcasts, I found another one to listen to I really thought I’d like because it’s interviews with the average runner, but I could not handle all the “um”s and “uh”s in the interviews. GAH. It made me mental. I understand they are more casual speakers because they ARE the average runner, but I couldn’t focus on what they were saying. Note to self – watch my “um”s, “uh”s, and “like”s.
  • I am going to try a dip manicure today! I usually get gel, but it’s not lasting as long as I’d like, and dip is supposed to last longer. I hope I like the way it turns out.
  • We started calling Starbuck “Bucatini” (full name Starbuck Cooters McScooters Bucatini Lastname) so we decided the other cats should have Italian nicknames too. Apollo is “Quattro Formaggi” and Khali is “Cacciatore.”

  • After finishing From Scratch, I started the memoir An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth, which I heard Molly Huddle talking about in a podcast. I’m digging it so far! Although I do find my mind wandering to work issues when I am reading it. Probably because the author talks a lot about problem solving and that makes me think of work.
