I'M MARRIED... AND BUSY!

Wow.

I've been so busy! I thought it would drop-off after the wedding - alas, no. Right now, I'm just keeping my eye on the prize in preparing for my Half-marathon at the Nike Women's Marathon in SF this Sunday. Holy Fagoli! I did NOT blog, run or organize as much as I thought I would in the past few weeks. My blog, legs, and home are all showing signs of neglect.

Therefore, I'm trying to jumpstart my blogging motivator with a little exercise - lists! I love lists an while I haven't been tagged anywhere, I thought I'd tag myself and no one else.

Today I...
1. Tried to wake up early to run, but failed miserably.
2. Ran for 30 minutes on my lunch instead..
3. Ordered meals for the next two weeks at Dinner My Way to be picked up after work.
4. Reserved myself some fresh pesto and olive tapanade from my favorite host and hostess with the most-ess over at the Hidden Kitchen. Yum!

Still to do...
1. Write 70 thank you notes.
2. Run the Nike Women's Marathon (half) on Sunday in San Francisco.
3. Finish up Baby Shower invite design and prepare final proofs for the ever-fabulous James.
4. Clean/Organize/Purge all the chaos in my house.

Some of my guilty pleasures...
1. Pandora radio on my iPhone whilst running - best internet radio EVER!
2. Window shopping online at Gilt Groupe, Hautelook, ideeli, and many, many more.
3. Exotic chocolate bars from my freezer ice bin (though right now it only contains Hershey's).
4. Trying out new eateries and visiting my favorite slow eats in Sacramento.

Random facts about me...
1. No matter how full my Google Reader Inbox gets, I'm determined to at least scan every single one of them (this is a large contributing factor as to why I've not been blogging).
2. I'm keeping my maiden name as a second middle name - which means my initals will now spell "OW!" and I think that's pretty awesome.
3. I just saw a chiropractor for the first time EVER today.
4. I used to have problems making myself burp, but now that I'm married I can't seem to keep them in (okay, this started during the engagement as well)!

Well, I hope to get my blog balls rolling soon in hopes to ramp up for my wedding recap once Travis is done with my pro-photos. Yesterday, I was told that the photos would be in some time next week (SO excited)! Until then, here is an all-encompassing slideshow of all of our wedding related event photos (some contributed by guests) thus far (we have several of these on our wedding website).

I just came across your blog, and I have enjoyed it tremendously!

Good luck tomorrow - I was there last year! My mom, my sister, and I completed the full marathon together in honor of my dad who passed away from lymphoma last. It was the hardest thing I've ever done, but absolutely the most rewarding experience of my life. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, and hoping you're not as sore as I was when you are finished! :)
