I was sick all last week. It was only a cold, But all week I didn’t run, lift weights, or even leave the house! There was a lot of book reading and movie watching. This was a common sighting in our apartment: Oh, memories I indulged in some of my childhood favorites of the 90’s. […]

Dan and I were go-go-go all weekend. We have mixed feelings about weekends like the last- on the one hand, we both are firm believers that no one remembers a relaxing evening at home, so we might as well make the most of our lives. On the other, by the time Sunday evening rolls around […]
Summer is Coming!
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged blogging, Japan on May 28, 2013 | Leave a Comment »
Yes! It’s true. Things are already heating up here which is good and bad. Good because, while on the humid side, it’s still nice to have reliably good weather for runs, bike rides, etc. Bad, because we don’t really have air conditioning (a small unit over the couch), so our room is hot at night, […]
When Bad Days Happen

I know I’m often ridiculously perky. At least, people tell me so all the time! But in a moment of complete honesty, things make me tick, I get mad at myself, and I have flat-out bad days. And today was one of them! I was just behind schedule all day. After a terrible night’s sleep […]
Oh, City Living…

Bam! That would be the line for cabs at Shinjuku Station on a Friday night when the Keio train line is down. Dan and I had a fun night because it was our running club night! He was also haring (leading the trail) so it was fun to “host” the runners, provide snacks and drinks, […]

It’s Thursday! As usual I have no idea what I did with my week and it’s almost over! Today’s exercising was just a run. Let’s be honest, I’m not a fast runner. On top of that I’ve lost some steam since taking a month or two off for my torn achilles tendon. So I decided […]

Happy Wednesday! First off, I have to thank my future mother in law Cathy! She recently visited the Big Island in Hawaii and brought me back this awesome running shirt! Big Island Running Company is a neat little running store in Kona, and Dan and I checked it out when we were visiting the area […]
Costco in Japan and Belated Spring Cleaning!

If there’s a word for today, it’s PRODUCTIVE! But before I jump into my Tuesday, Dan and I did something exciting (to us) yesterday: a trip to Costco!!! Costco is kind of far from us, but it’s a nice little taste of home, and a nice break from the high prices of Tokyo. Let’s take […]
Buzz Lightyear + Cross Training = Good Weekend!

Happy Monday! Let’s take care of business first: how adorable is my nephew in his Buzz Lightyear jammies?! I sent him a set of Woody and Buzz pajamas for his birthday last month (which still needs proper attention in the form of a blog posting), and my sister sent me pics of him that I […]
