Improv Everywhere

One of my favorite bloggers is Katie Sokoler, who is also the offficial photographer of a group called Improv Everywhere.  They are a fun group! I like them because they are a 'prank collective that causes scenes of chaos and joy in public places.'  I would LOVE to be a part of their group!
Here are two of my favorite Improv Acts they put together: 


1. One of the actors pretended to get lost at a Knicks game. And what is funny, is how involved the fans became in his dilemma! Read the behind the scenes story here.





2. Recently they did a fun musical at the Gel Conference in NY. The song is a parody on how we overshare on the internet. Hee hee. it's so true!

A bit of THis and ThAt

Hello Friends!

Check it out, I am trying to start a new bike fashion trend. It is called the Monkey Light!

There is a small circuit board with LED lights that attach to your bike spokes. And when your wheel turns, it becomes a beautiful light display. Not to mention, you become very visible in the dark - which is why I want everyone to have one! Find them here: http://store.monkeylectric.com/

I have been having so much fun riding at night!

Update!

Hello Friends! I am so sorry for my absence of late. I guess I should explain...



As you know from my last post, I was feeling very lovey dovey in February. By the end of the month, however, I started to spend more of my time like this :

sick sick sick

And as time went on I felt like doing this every day at work:

ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz

And THEN, every time I got dressed I felt like I should wear this shirt:

Well, as you might have already guessed, all of these new feelings only lead to one thing. In 7 months Brian and I are going to have one of these!!!

And we couldn't be happier. <3

It's February!

I have to be honest, reading all of that teen romance has put me in a romantic mood and I find myself wanting to hug Brian a bit tighter these days. Thank goodness it's February and I can have an excuse to bring out my romantic side.

So, in honor of February (and In case you need a little push to get your heart a flutter, and your mind wandering to lustful daydreams) here is another Ode to Love and kissing -- and all of it's intense emotion that makes you forget there is a world outside of it.

P.S.  If you want to give your special someone something they will cherish, consider my all time favorite romantic gift-- a love note.

The Young and the Restless?

OH my, I don't know how it started, but I am pretty sure it is my husband's fault.

Two weeks ago we were in the bookstore and I was perusing the fiction isles, bored with all of the titles and old dead authors. That is when Brian came around with a remedy for my reading woes-- before I could say "glitterotti," I had a stack of teen drama and romance novels in my wiry hands.

Alas, it has been a whirlwind of first kisses, first loves, divorcing parents, and S.A.T. anxieties. Two weeks and ten novels later, I am still enthralled. My grandmother says it is because I am trying to recapture my youth... but I am not so sure.

Super Dope Winter Fun

My husband showed this video to me last night, it is a trailer for the latest Matchstick production "The Way I See It."  My mouth dropped, my fists clenched, and I having been thinking about hitting the slopes ever since. I definitely want to see the whole movie.

These ski junkies defy what I knew to be humanly possible. They fly. They stand on the tippity top of the highest mountains and instead of peeing their pants, like I would, they teeter over the edge and bomb down like speeding bullets. In short, this shit rocks -- and regardless of whether you ski, you should watch it.

In review!

Hooray Hooray Hooray! It is the holiday season and I am feeling joyful. Last month was awesome -- to say the least. Lot's of friends, adventures and laughs. Here are a few of my favorite November memories compliments of my iPet.

Anniversary at the Oregon Coast

 be still my heart

Friends who like to color coordinate

 Spunky Co-Workers on a fall walk.

Secret Date to watch the new Harry Potter flick <3 this was the line!

 Watching the Blazers! This is the first time I laid eyes on Dante Cunningham after I said something inappropriate to him at a bar not too long ago. awkward.

Super cool lightning bunny. look closely.

I crashed a random house party. I met this guy and appropriately referred to him as 'Bear Head.'

This was Last CX race of the season for me. And it was awesome!

Hot Bodies

First, let me say...

But there is a limit to my love.   For instance, this is hot - 

This is definitely not (lol)- 

Here is an example of toned hotties!

 And back to the.. not so much.

maybe it is just her hair....



Steroids? No thanks.

But a walk on the beach sounds good....

Oh look she is on the beach too!

And this girl is in the mountains... I think this one belongs on the love side, what do you think?

That's a lot of alcohol!

I just got these stats from a Halloween house party I attended. Wowza!

Maybe that is why my friend, Neal, and I looked like this...

And this guy definitely had the best costume. He scared me!

 
Hooray for Halloween parties! Did you attend a party of note?

October!

Wowza another month of our lives has passed. And, what a great month it was! My family came for a visit, it was Halloween, I was not last place in every cyclocross race, I hung out with some wicked cool peeps, and I even made a few new friends. Thankfully, I have my iPet to document the good times. Check it.

This lil' player told me he liked me, said I was pretty, and then asked me to go to his hotel rm because he had a huge couch.

Holy Sunglasses, Batman!

I <3 the Laurelthirst Pub. I eat breakfast there often and am always shocked when people order booze before noon.

 Susan and John came to PDX and we had the BEST time

Yes, this type of corruption may send me, and my team, to the hot place.

Really?

vOTE!

I just finished filling out my ballot and feel GREAT!  I, of course, did my best to vote for representatives who have my best interests in mind when making decisions and laws ---  translation: I want bike riding, puppy loving, spreadsheet making politicians who like to dance.

Make sure you don't forget to vote. And, if you need some inspiration to get out there...
