i love to walk

i would have to say that my favorite past time is walking. i think itstarted in middle school when sharon and i used to take walks around saratoga pumping our arms and squeezing our butt muscles to try to get a work out...you remember that dont you sharon?

in college it was simply a matter of me not wanting to take the bus so i walked everywhere. i hated being on someone elses schedule (the bus was free btw)

when i lived in sf mon and i ramped it up a bit to urban hiking because the hills were so brutal! i think some of the best times ive ever had were urban hiking with mon and just chatting and enjoying each others company.

in ny i think walking is a necessity. some people think im crazy for walking the three miles to and from connies place but when im not on a time crunch (which is more times than not) its the best and most relaxing thing. i can catch up on my phone conversations, listen to music or just people watch. on a night like tonight it was perfect!

i have A LOT of pics to post up cuz james came and we did awesome stuff like eat chicken wings on vday. its great to have him around and totally looking forward to his next visit!

this first pic was taken on monday as we were getting ready to go to landsdowne! we basically had food coma after the meal cuz we ordered a ton of wings, our favorite pulled pork nachos and then hit up holey cream for a donut ice cream sandwich. what a great way to spend valentines day!

on tues after work james and i went to meet up lu at ginger man and had some of their home made ginger beer. i seriously havent been been to ginger man since i met hana there two years ago! sadly, james and i drank before eating and got pretty darn tipsy after two beers each. we successfully passed out at 9 pm and woke up a good 11 hours later. (well, i woke up 11 hours later. i think james woke up 13 hours later!) strangely enough i was still really tired today and felt groggy at work. super annoying.
his flight just left a few hours ago and its always hard for me to fall asleep without him after hes been here for a while. hopefully my walk will make me fall asleep asap!
