So busy! Here's what's been going on in the last monthish since I've been on here.

My foot is still bothering me from the half marathon so I'm finally going to get it checked out in a week. I'm sure nothing is broken since walking doesn't hurt and nothing hurts to the touch. I think it's a sprain or strain, or possibly a bone spur...

Holy crazy month! I found out on May 4th that I got a promotion to replace the girl in the cube next to me who was quitting for a better job in a different field. On May 5th my parents got into town from Phoenix. On May 6th I ran the half marathon, and I spent the rest of the week on vacation from work...

I did it! I survived running a half marathon! My original goal was to finish in two and a half hours or less. During training I managed to run between a 9-10 minute mile so I changed my goal to 2 hours and 15 minutes or less. The official times aren't posted yet but according to my GPS I finished in 2:13:58! I beat my...

The half marathon is now 2 days away. I'm looking for words of wisdom/advice/inspiration to take with me on this run. At this point it may be more of a mental struggle than anything.

My training didn't exactly go as planned. I wanted to get up to 11 or 12 miles but life got in the way and the highest I did was 10 and...

The half marathon is in just over a week. I just remembered to be scared again. I've only trained up to 10 miles because I just haven't had the time to do more. Apparently that's all most people train to so hopefully I'll be fine. Eeek!

I'm so proud of myself! I just ran 10.34 miles in 1:41:49. My average pace was 9:51 per mile. I was aiming for 10 miles and my GPS said I hit it just after I ran past my house so I decided to keep going just a little longer since I was going downhill. The half marathon I'm training for is on May 6th and...

Happy Easter everyone. I don't get the connection between crucifixion, colored eggs, and bunnies, but whatever. I love all the chocolate around this time of year.



Kinda cracked me up that at the beginning of this video YouTube put up an add for a mormon site.

Dating sucks! A week after TaoAndCoffee and I broke up someone I had a crush on a few years ago expressed both past and current interest. Apparently he'd been planning to ask me out until he realized I was married. We've hung out a few times and the more I get to know him the more I like him. The issue is we're both pretty...

New peektures from my shoot yesterday! I think hundreds more are coming. It was musical photographers. The photos below were by Dave Whitson again. Seeing as the shoot was less than 24 hours ago none of the other photographers have sent anything and none of the photos are edited.

It was a really cool experience. There were two other models there. They set us up...

I've been working on a dream of mine, modeling. It's hard to do much with this site I've found so I'm branching out hoping to gain experience and get paid. Here are some pretty fucking cool results.

These are outtakes of a shoot I did on March 10th by Inkblot98. God I love her! She was shooting the shoot and the photographer's flash did...

New news. I've talked it over with friends, family, and coworkers. I'll be staying in Michigan at least another year. I'm too mentally and emotionally fucked up to make a decision on where to go or what to do. I own a house here, I have great friends here, and I have a job that most days doesn't make me want to kill myself. My...

I'm on Twitter finally! Check out Kirin Suicide. I'll try to be more entertaining there than I am here.
