I am the worst blogger ever. THE. WORST. I've been gone for a month and a half and it felt kinda good. Here are my excuses.

I'm moving. TO NEW YORK CITY. Yeah, I've been gone for over a month and pop back in here and nonchalantly drop that bomb on you. We won't be moving for a few months, but things are decided and deposits are paid and it is happening. Get excited for lots of NYC instas (follow me here).

Why are we moving? This leads me to another excuse for my bloggidy absence. I applied - and got in - to law school. I'm not going to type it out here because that's not the kind of SEO traffic I'm looking for on a lifestyle blog, but let's just say it starts with the letter "C" and rhymes with Shmolumbia. 

I've been gone a lot. This is legit. We were out in ski country for most of the holidays and have been spending as many spare weekends skiing as we can in anticipation of a trip out to Big Sky this spring. I am actually turning into a decent skier, so I'm sure my mom is mighty proud.

Speaking of skiing... I'm also the proud owner of a new, bright magenta ski coat (they're calling this color Amethyst but it is bordering on neon in person). I want to wear it everywhere but apparently it's not cool to wear your ski coat out to a nice dinner so I'm holding back a little bit. This hasn't much to do with my absence from blogging, but I'm pumped about it so there ya go.

Other things that have been keeping me from this blog? Good old procrastination. Yoga. Weight lifting. Watching Parenthood in a bath tub (seriously, I cannot stop, and I am so in love with the Kristina/Adam relationship that I might just die of happiness).

Anyway, I'm back! 
Working on a few recipes and workout routines and everything in between. Come back soon :)

Update: The teefs are out! I'm alive and well and on a complicated regimen of dee-rugs.

And wearing a face diaper. 

Update on Sickness and Wisdom

Tweet this!
Guess what? I'm sick! Seriously. For the past few days I've been swimming in tissues. And crying. Like this.

And... drumroll please... I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled! Yeah, sucks doesn't it? A few weeks ago, while sitting at my desk at work, I was talking and my cute lil tongue was flopping around in my mouth when I realized... I have an extra tooth in there! That's just not right. Imagine my surprise upon realizing I had an extra tooth...

And then, upon realizing that not only do I have one extra tooth, but I also have three more that are waiting in the wings, just begging to pop onto the stage, all of which must be semi immediately ripped out...

Why am I sharing this? Well, first, because I know you miss me and are wondering where I am and what I'm doing and what I'm eating for lunch and what color my toe nails are (joke... but really, they're painted teal right now). Second, and less jokingly, because I skipped posting yesterday (sick girls don't post, right Fergie ferg?) and might not be posting tomorrow, either.

Why? Because I'll likely be drugged. And looking a bit like this.

Oh behave. The drama! Don't miss me too much :)
