It was hard to resist the spirit and energy of San Francisco as the Giants played in the World Series this past week. Last night the entire city erupted with cheers and shouts of joy as the Giant's swept the series. This is the second time since I've lived here that the Giants have won …

Every Monday should end with Sushi
Monday's are always full of plenty of emails, work and wishing it was not Monday. So what better way to get through a Monday but thinking about sushi for dinner all day. That is what I did yesterday... When the clock struck 5:30 I was out the door and on my way to Japanese heaven. …
Missing Running
Today I woke up really missing going for a run. Since I have been sick these past couple of days I have not worked out and I truly feel that I have not had a good work out since before my accident when I could run. I wish I could just wake up and roll …
Goodbyes can be fun
Yesterday my company said goodbye to a coworker as it was her last day of work. While I will miss her presence in the office and having her as my desk neighbor, I am happy she has found other opportunities that will fulfill her. Even though it was sad realizing that I would not see …

A Day in the Clouds
Yesterday there was no way to tell that it was the end of summer based on the weather we experienced. As usual in the Bay Area the day was rather cool and the fog hung around till late afternoon. Despite these clouds we headed out on an adventure and left the city. About 45 minutes …
It only took 2 years…
for me to get my California driver's license! Let's just say the DMV is not a super peasant place, but if you are on crutches they treat you a bit more like a VIP customer. So even though I moved here over two years ago, yesterday I finally became an official Cali resident. The sis …
Dad’s Here!
As many of you know, I am not native to California. I grew up in NJ and moved out to San Francisco a year after college to be with my boyfriend who is from the bay area. I love living here, but having family live so far away is never easy, especially when you break …
