I don’t post so much on men’s fashion because it’s sort of boring. And the Vermonster is frankly uninterested. My brother still wears his Ghanaan caftan thing on stage when he performs. My dad tries, but loves puffy vests more than stylin’ suits. So when I found a fantastic guide to buying a super-hot men’s…

Filthy Fifty
I’ve only attempted the Filthy Fifty one other time, and didn’t finish before our 30-minute cutoff. Today, after FIVE hours of skiing (on the blues, of course, Lisa!) I said to That Ripped Guy of Mine(TM): “If it’s a long metcon, I’m not doing it,” … because I’m going to drive the 25 minutes to…
Ski CrossFit
CrossFit is awesome preparation for skiing. I hit the slopes for only my third time ever with my highly-advanced, born-on-skis That Ripped Guy of Mine(TM) coaching me and I was tearing down the mountain by the end of the day. Ok, well, turning up the greens. But still. My turn mantra went something like this:…
Austin Restaurant Week picks
Austin Restaurant Week can be intimidating … there are so many good restaurants to try! Basically, RARE media gets all the restaurants together to host fixed-price meals for two weeks, Sunday through Wednesday. This year, it’s February 28th – March 3rd and March 7th – 10th. My top ten picks: Baby, you got options: Chinatown…
If you can afford it …
Anthony Nak is 50-80% off! This MAY be old news, and there’s no way I can afford anything, even if it’s 50-80% off, but how fantastic is this necklace? http://anthonynak.com/

14: Wreak Havoc on my Shoulders
I show you this results board because today it was essential to my strategy. You see, Nick, in the green marker above my name, is one of the trainers at Roaring Fork CrossFit and he finished 13.5 rounds, so my only goal in this workout was to beat him. Pre WOD Handstand Practice … apparently…

First is the worst, second is the best, third is the one with the treasure chest …
Remember that rhyme from when you lost things as a kid? You’d taunt the winner by telling them they were actually the worst … maybe that was just my childhood, where you also got taunted for being a girl wearing a Ninja Turtles shorts + t-shirt combo that looked EXACTLY like the turtle shell sported…
Double the volleyball
Still feeling kind of puny, but planning to hit up Roaring Fork tonight. Last night I got in some rec leage volleyball, thinking it’d be a nice, light way to test out how sick I really am. Played one match (three games) and felt good but started to tire, but when the next team asked…
