Ninja Training

Any who knows me knows that I'm really into American Ninja Warrior . I've been training for the past year to hopefully compete on the show in the future. Lately, almost all my free time is dedicated to working out whether it's running, practicing bikram yoga, or doing pull ups. While watching the show together with my gf she comments that I'll never make it pass the 1st qualifying round. So here's to you sweetie, when I win that 500k prize money just remember that you never believed in me = p

Holidays

The holiday season is upon us once again and the customary holiday traditions like frolicking in the snow, gift exchanges, and nonstop feasting are in full swing. Personally, I think it's important to look beyond the material items and really focus on the most important thing in your life, your loved ones. For the 2 weeks leading up to Christmas, I've been sentimental about this very special girl in my life. After a long day of work I would race home so that I could see her beautiful face. She even takes priority over going for a run! Every time I see her smiling it just melts my heart.











Here she is...isn't she just adorable. This is Gabi,my gf's neice.

Oops almost forgot, you're beautiful too sweetie.

Busted

My gf found a Christmas card in the trash, took a picture of it and sent it to me. She texted "who's Shelly and what did you do?" Shelly is Sheldon, my boss. In retrospect, maybe I should have played along to punish her for going through the garbage like a nyc rat.

Babies

Yesterday, my gf and I experienced changing a soiled diaper for the 1st time. It was both a humorous and dramatic scene as we frantically searched for a new diaper, argued over who would toss the poop filled diaper, and debated over how much baby powder to use. We eventually accomplished the task at hand, but it would have been much less stressful if my gf wasn't screaming the whole time as if the poop-filled diaper was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any second.

Doggy obsessed

My gf spends approximately 840 minutes a week looking at pictures of dogs online. That works out to 2 hours everyday or nearly 10% of her day!

Daisy

While I was away in Vegas for a weekend my gf randomly decided to foster a dog. She saved an 18 month old beagle mix, named Daisy, from being put to sleep. My gf agreed to foster Daisy until the shelter found a permanent home for her. Daisy turned out to be such a cute and well behaved dog that we instantly became attached to her. The shelter was able to find someone to adopt Daisy rather quickly so we only fostered her for 10 days. As it turns out, my gf was away that weekend when the shelter came to transfer Daisy to her new country home in Pennsylvania, so when she returned home Daisy was already gone. Now every time we pass by a cute dog or see a picture of a puppy online, my gf will cry out "You gave Daisy away!! How could you??" As I've discovered over the years, the best response is to just hug her and whisper "I know, I know, it's okay."

PB&J

I made my gf a heart shaped PB&J sandwich for breakfast by cutting off the corners of the bread and she got angry because she thought that I had given her a half-eaten sandwich!
