It’s officially 2014 here in Japan! Dan and I weren’t sure how to ring in the new year- a quiet night together at home, or out with friends? We decided to do both! We went to the Samurai New Year’s Eve hash, toasted and kissed at midnight, spent a little more time socializing, then headed […]

Alternate Working Title- No More Hashbrowns Again. Ever. No. Alternate Working Title #2- Fun With Knives! So… we had an incident Saturday night… But first let me set the scene. I was having a great Saturday. Caught up on some to-do list things. Dan was out at Samurai hash and I was home alone most […]

In Japan, it’s officially Christmas! I am worn out! We last left off Sunday night, when I successfully completed my last 20-miler for Goofy training. The next day, Monday, Tokyo Hash House Harriers was having their Christmas run and party. It was my last free Monday before I leave, so I figured I might as […]

I’m completely cloud-9ing right now after a great weekend of running. A successful hash and a successful distance training for Goofy’s Race & a Half Challenge. Saturday- Samurai Jingle Bell Run (Samurai Hash House Harriers) Yesterday (Saturday) Dan and I chose to run at the Samurai hash because A- it was a Christmas run, B- […]

Goals for this weekend: go for a 9 mile run Saturday and a 13 mile run Sunday. Buy and pack boxes for the move. Bake gingerbread men for a Christmas party on Tuesday night. Sushi date with Dan. Snoopy exhibit at Mori Tower. But none of this got done because I caught a nasty cold!! […]

I’ve had breakfast and I’m dressed to go run 5 miles, but blogging about Nate in my cozy apartment sounds much better! At this point in my blogging history, you all know my baby nephew Nate. He’s 20 months, weighs about 10 apples and is about 15 apples high (how Hello Kitty is measured ;)). […]
New Header!

I am in love with my new header! What do you all think? I have been using my pal Wes as a graphic designer for quite a while now, but usually for haberdashery projects with my hash. I wanted to personalize my blog a bit more and asked if he could help make it a […]
Big News! I’m Moving!

I’ve been putting off blogging about this for a while, and once I wrote it out, I sat on it for even longer. Maybe I kept thinking I’d change my mind. Or I’d find a perfect job here in Tokyo. Or all my US family and friends would decide to move to Japan. But those […]
The Road to Goofy

I’m ridiculously pleased to say that training for Goofy’s Race & a Half Challenge is going really well. Or at a minimum, FAR better than last year (when I didn’t train). I haven’t missed a distance run yet and my mileage is climbing. When it was time to run 16 miles I couldn’t fathom it. […]

Where have I been?! I’ve had company in town! My friend Amanda, who came to visit me last spring, returned for a couple weeks with her boyfriend Steven. We had an absolute blast- Dan and I aren’t hermits per se, but we definitely get out more when we have friends in town! Some high lights […]
