Most Sexy.

I like to end on a positive note. That last post had me thinking of all the bad stuff guys do, so I want to give props where props are due

10. Cycling Kits...pretty much only I think this is sexy. Well, me and my friend Liv...but we're both Triathletes so give us some slack...on this note I also love a guy in Rudy Project Sunglasses and a nice aero helmet.
9. Dark Jeans. But only if they're paired with loafers.
8. Peacoats - they're sharp, sleek, no nonsense, and damn I love them. Add a scarf? I promise I'll swoon.
7. Glasses - but only sometimes, and on the right guy. Nerdy is sexy more often than not.
6. Chivalry - if he says please and thank you and is patient with the waiter, I notice.
5. Sweatpants - not crappy, ripped ones but the Nike ones with the stripes down the side or the ones that say a college down the side. Especially in the morning. Especially in the dining hall. Many girls have agreed on this.
4. 5 O'Clock Shadow - some girls hate, some girls love. I love. Just don't give me a rub burn.
3. Slow walking - Not too slow because this is Boston and walking any slower than 5 mph is socially unacceptable but if we have no where to be...lets stroll. And this gives the vibe he's laid back and confident.
2. Instruments - guitar, violin, drums, vocal cords..hell, it could be a mandolin. I love it.

And my number one?

1. Confidence. Don't jump around the subject and don't act stupid. If you want to ask a girl out, ask her out. Tell her time, place, and that you'll pick her up. I've never turned down a guy who is direct. She's not going to wait on you forever. That is very, very sexy.

Love love love,
me

Stop Shoulding all over yourself

Yesterday I went on Cor Jesu's Vivare "young alumni" retreat. My friend from high school Katie posted it on my wall a few weeks ago and tagged a couple other CJ sisters to the post and it struck my interest. I haven't done a single thing with CJ since I graduated and somewhere between moving to Boston and joining the triathlon team my Catholic past was put on the backburner. I figured I had nothing to lose except a Saturday and at the very least I'd get to hang out with my friends so I signed up and sent in my $25 without much thought.  I've never been the most devout Catholic. Most times in church I'm scanning the crowd for familiar faces, zoning out, and making Target lists- and that's if I go at all. Sunday is usually run-day...or ski day. Or sleep in day. Or study day. Or vacuum day. Whatever day it is...it's rarely church day. Despite being raised by two Catholic parents, going to a Catholic grade school and a Catholic high school, going o...

A Near Miss

I may have spoken too soon when I said that Kirkwood library was my spot. Here I am comfortably doing my speech-pathology work when out of nowhere: We took the square route of this and put it here and here and put it there and there.  My ears tuned in and I raised my head. I sniffed the air and suspiciously scanned the area. Yep. Math. Immediately I broke out in a sweat. Hands started shaking. Eyes twitched. Jaw clenched and neck twisted. Vomit literally came up my esophagus. Pavlov conditioning in it's purest form.  So this times this gives you this and this times this gives you that.  Focus, Katie. Hmm....a 2 year old with hearing loss who is struggling with some final consonant deletion, some stopping of fricatives, some devoicing? Now that, I am good at.... Now do you see inside your parenthesis that there is a difference of squares? No I don't see, lady. That past is long behind me and I'm never going back.  Right now I'm transcribing, identifying ...
First mountain bike ride = SUCCESS! Rex and I rode 18 miles this morning. We did the Logan river trail for about 14 then we rode around town stopping into some bike shops looking at pedals and mountain biking shoes. It'll be a few weeks before I actually buy a pair but I want to get an idea of what's out there - just like road cycling, clipless pedals change everything. With regular pedals, the rider can only get movement forward by pushing down. With clipless pedals, the rider's foot is attached to the bike so you can push down and pull up, which makes climbing and accelerating completely different. I absolutely love my pedals on Mr. Mac so Rex should have a pair, too. The ride was awesome though. The thing I like about mountain biking is that it's a nice blend between trail running and road cycling. You get to the distance of cycling but you get to be close with nature like you do running. It's absolutely perfect. I even had my very first crash today! I w...
