You know those events that are so epic they seem like and have a reputation for having always been so? Well Beer Olympics is one of those amongst my Austin friend group, despite this year’s only being the third annual. It’s tomorrow, and I could not be more excited. I LOVE throwing this party. It’s…
I’ve said this before: the person who says “oh this is so much fun!” is always perceived as the person having the most fun. Wednesday night I observed this phenomenon again with an eclectic group of incredibly successful women eating delicious food at Rose Mary Chicago, sharing Croatian wine, and lifting each other up. It…
This week I’m grateful for: Bob squeezing into the floor of the two-seater truck and on top of his kennel in the mini and the bmw the mobile mechanic a romp through a random field off the side of the road as we waited for a tow truck OmniShield pest control pack walks a puff-sleeve…
OMG TWO STEP INN was every bit as good as I was hoping. Fantastic music, hilarious mini adventures with my man, a fab festy fit, perfect temps on Sunday … it was all epic. I loved it. I’m so grateful. We met this guy, and he was amazing too. This week was birthday week for…

I felt a pop in the arch of my foot, and knew something was torn but didn’t even know you COULD tear a plantar fascia, particularly not one that gave you no warning and previously did not have pain.…
020323: is losing your voice always a metaphor for … losing your voice? Did writing about being even a tiny bit intimidated bring this on? Did I silence MYSELF? Or is it just recirculated airplane air, a virus going around, a diminished immune system from disrupted routines? Coming back from the leadership offsite, I was…
Bob, Zimbobwae, Byobi … the weird lil corgi army crawler guy continues to be simultaneously a complete and utter dickhead (to strangers, people walking by, and everyone who has to hear him on my conference calls) and a source of endless joy, love, and humor (especially at night, when it’s dark, and he can’t see…
Remember when this blog was Life in Austin & Aspen? I’m in Aspen again today! This place is so full of magic and wonder, and yet, so different than it was before. The skiing though? As epic as ever. 2023 is off to a fabulous start. The fancy as f@$k! new year’s eve party was…
