See ya at Sectionals!
OK, that’s not true, I’ll mainly be seeing myself at Sectionals … but I did go ahead and compete in the first WOD. It’ll only get harder from here as I have to film myself doing the WODs … in my “normal” commercial gym … awkward! But nonetheless, I am committed. http://games.crossfit.com/ My first go at…
On Not Drinking
I’ve been in Austin for over a week now, playing and partaking in SXSW. This is my fourth year to attend, but my first to attend as a teetotaler: that’s right, I haven’t drank a drop of alcohol this year. Normally, SX is a time of free parties, free booze, free food, and serendipitous finds…
Austin: Second Bar + Kitchen
This is my second Second meal. It looks remarkably similar to the first Second meal: Despite a large menu and amazing buffalo fried pickles, all I have ever ordered at the hip, happening new Second Bar + Kitchen, next to Congress and Congress Bar on … Second & Congress, is the amazing burger ($12) and…
Aspen: Broken Social Scene for Free!
The indie-rock phenomenon Broken Social Scene will play for FREE in downtown Aspen on Friday, March 18 at 8 pm for Core Party, kicking off the 11th Annual Bud Light Spring Jam. Which is sort of ironic since a little fest called SXSW is happening in Austin with lots of big names, but not this one!…

I <3 Red Black Gym
Y’all know I like my workouts to look like play … Nature’s Garage Gym was my own personal playground, and then I did workouts on an actual playground. Well today I got to return to my roots at the Red Black Gym (nee SicFit) with the 1:15pm class with Big Mike. LOVED IT! Warmup: lots of…
Take a SXSW Break to Shop for Freewaters
When all the hipsters invade town (I’m looking at you, MUSIC festival), inevitably TOMS take over the streets. What’s more hipster than donating a pair of shoes to a barefoot kid somewhere else in the world while rocking the UGLIEST shoes known to man? (Even the wedges are ugly, and I really, really tried to…
Raw Milk
I tweeted recently about the stupid FDA spending my hard-earned tax money on a stupid poster AGAINST raw milk. This is stupid because: More people were killed last year BY SHARK ATTACK than raw milk Leafy greens are FAR MORE DANGEROUS than raw milk Sugar, sugar substitutes, and white flour kill more people in the…
SXSW Six Odds and Ends
People, we are in FULL SWING. I have never seen Interactive so full of people and parties, and of course panels, but that’s almost a second thought. Below are six things that I haven’t yet talked about because they don’t fit because there isn’t always free “Stuff” or whatever. All-Inclusive Hotel & Indie Day Party:…
