I must have been box jumping for fitness for at least 14 years, assuming I started in college during plyometric workouts for basketball. And yet while I tore the side of my knee open once by not clearing a hurdle during plyos and trying to straddle it once I knew I wasn’t going to clear it…

The mama, the mini, the mulligan | Feel Good Friday 112015
The mama The mini The mulligan … Won’t let me take a picture of him, but suffice it to say that my Toronto vacation turned into sleeping in a hospital chair followed by a Scandal marathon with a grouchy, drugged-up fella friend missing a body part. So I will need a Canada mulligan.
Basketball | Feel Good Friday 111315
From about eighth grade on, my life revolved around basketball—pickup, practice, drills, rec league, school teams, AAU, open gyms, the sport court we built just for me on the side of our house. My high school and early college experiences centered around basketball, and I loved it. I love sports, teams, camraderie, physicality, training, playing,…

Dudes, Football, Fitwall, and Other Dumb Stuff I’m Grateful For | Feel Good Friday 102315
I just have to say … I like guys. Like, not one in particular, but I like to date guys. I have crushes on guys. Good, that’s settled. I also like football. I also like trying out Fitwall with my girls (but I still like to date dudes). I also like my unstainable white dress…
I Don’t Have To Be Grateful | Feel Good Friday/Sunday 101815
I don’t have to be grateful, and I don’t have to write about all the things I am grateful for—but I can, and I am. I am grateful. I am grateful for work, work friends, my first Cirque du Soleil (Kurios), a suite at the Ducks game, two football victories, volleyball wall drills, the gym, dinosaur…
Idaho, Part 2 | Feel Good Friday 100215
Last weekend’s trip to Idaho was mind-bogglingly perfect. Literally everything went right. We packed a ton of fun stuff into one long weekend, but the most amazing part of the trip was the people: five near-strangers (Bromance and I already had a, well, bromance) became instant best friends (#bestspuds). From the moment the guys picked…
A Moment of Silent Gratitude
While I was glamping, hiking, wine tasting, tandem biking, dancing, exploring, moonlight hiking, taking in views, drinking coffees on porches, loving life, and annoying the hell out of my friends on social media whilst in Sandpoint, Idaho, one of this blog’s and DailyHap‘s biggest supporters died unexpectedly. She was a champion of all things good,…
PO, Two Shoes, and Stars
In my short life, I’ve experienced a lot of death, both of major people in my own life and in my friends’ lives. I don’t know if this is a self-selecting group or odd coincidence. I met this girl not even a year ago, and we were instantly close. She lost her husband two years…
