an update

I have spent the past few days running around like a crazy person, but it has been so worth it. Some of the highlights include:

- Getting my hair trimmed and colored last Friday. It was MUCH cheaper than when I had it done in DC last year and the girl I went to was phenomenal. 

- A fabulous Skype date with one of my best buddies that is still up at Drum. I miss her dearly, but she'll be heading this was soon!

- Many, M-A-N-Y fabulous gym dates. I've sampled a kickboxing class, Pilates classes, hung out and chatted on the elliptical, fallen in love with my absolute I-hate-it-but-drag-myself-anyway class -- Spin, etc. I may or may not have spent a good five minutes on a yoga mat in the weight room in complete hysterical laughter yesterday with a fabulous friend. Laughter is considered an ab workout, right?

- While on the topic of the gym, I have FINALLY made my triumphant sweaty return to running. I wrote awhile ago about my decision to drop the Marine Corps Marathon from my schedule this year and subsequently took an entire month off from running. I am, however, still running the Army 10-Miler with some amazing girlfriends and signed up for a half marathon here in town a few weeks later. 

- Delish food -- this is twofold:
1. There is a frozen yogurt place here that is AMAZING. Cannot wait for a little double-date action there this evening. 
2. My quest to find Coconut M&Ms has ended. A friend here spotted the very last package of them and snagged them for me. Love, love, love.

I think that's about it for my completely random post! :)

I love coconut M&Ms! They are hard to find, though. Have you tried the new pretzel M&Ms? They're very tasty, too!

Where did you get your hair done? I definitely need a cut!

Also, love gym dates. Making them social keeps me coming back and makes it so much fun. :-)

Fun workout dates sounds like a good time! Glad you're found your running mojo, mines on the verge of being lost...have to hold on to it just a few more weeks! Yuck on coconut M&Ms but I'm glad you found a bag to make you happy!
