Sobriety: Today is my 27th day of sobriety. I am extremely proud of this.
Reading: I finished reading Wild by Cheryl Strayed and found it absolutely fantastic. I got halfway through The Kiss by Kathryn Harrison. I couldn't finish it because it's so f'ing weird. I won't spoil it in case some of you actually like reading books about weird completely f'ed up girls who bang their dads (that is not a spoiler, fyi). I'm currently reading Let's Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson aka The Bloggess. I'm listening to Tina Fey's Bossypants on audiobook.
Movies: I saw Zero Dark Thirty in theaters with J. One man in the theater yelled out "I told you that would happen!" at one point. It's a true story people. These things actually happened. I'd give it a solid B.
TV: I need more Scandal in my life. I'm watching The West Wing on Netflix. J & I are watching Sons of Anarchy Season 5 on the DVR. Did you see the episode Laying Pipe? Oh god.
Food: My new goal is to make 2 new pinterest recipes every month. I made eggs baked in avocado with facon last Sunday and I'm currently working on one in a crockpot. This past week was restaurant week and my friend and I made it to Spin! for a BLT salad, sundried tomato & olive pizza, & autumn crunch gelato that was fantastic.
The 5k: Today I ran the Groundhog run. I was incredibly slow. But I finished, so hooray!
Looking forward to: Spring

So this is the new year...
Happy New Year!
Holy shit, it's 2013!
I had a fantastic NYE and was more than thrilled to spend it with some fantastic people, including J. We both took the day off work and sat inside watching Homeland and eating pizza while the snow fell. We made snack foods and our friends came over to drink champagne and countdown til midnight and watch fireworks and take shots. It was actually perfect.
I know that a lot of people say that resolutions are bullshit and if you want to change your life you should just do it instead of waiting for an arbitrary date on a calendar and blah blah blah. However, it just makes the actual most sense to do it at that time. Here are a few highlights from my list of goals for the year: run a 5k every month, read 2 books every month, & complete NDJ.
So today I bought my 2013 calendar and planner and ate my first vegan bacon burger and didn't drink at all and started a new 5k training program. So here we go. We can do this. We can totally fucking do this.
Sending you love and light in the new year.
