A Pink Pixie Princess - Complete!

Yay for a good running week! I went back and modified my half plans after being reminded about step back weeks here- I'm already excited for my first one haha Love the outfit for your "Long run" too! Those pieces go really well together!

I decided to pass on Iron Fist too. I've really liked the Marvel shows on Netflix so far, but after seeing how many critics trashed this one I really couldn't bring myself to even start it.

I love your water bottles! I really need to do better about drinking more water!

And glad Archie got a clean bill of health at his check up. Sorry that it was expensive though.
 
If it makes you feel better - I made my first inknburn purchase yesterday too. Maybe I'll have a cute shirt for Wine & Dine 10K out of it! If not - well there's Facebook or eBay.
Ahhhh. I hope it's awesome!! I have some guesses as to what it will be but I guess we'll see in a few weeks!
Yay!!

This makes a lot of sense, actually. Sometimes the slowing/speeding up hurts more than the longer running, and it makes a lot of sense to minimize the transitions. As frustrating as it must be to still be trying to work things around your back, in the long run, I think that doing what works best for your back is going to be the best way to stave off all types of injury.
Yeah, I am sure there's some what that I could transition from run to walk and walk to run better - gliding or whatever Galloway calls it - and it wouldn't wear on my back as much. :confused3 But at this point I feel like I have tried the shorter intervals a couple of times now and I am just not sure they are for me. I feel like I did my best a couple of years ago when I was running 1 mile/walking 1 minute and I hope to possibly get back to that some day.
Nice! Definitely important to have good non-running weeks sometimes to. And having it during a stepback week ... that's double awesome!
Agreed! :banana:
I thought about watching "13 Reasons Why," but I feel like with the way my life is right now, I really don't need to be watching something that basically highlights the worst parts of high school (which was not a great time for me). I may watch it eventually, especially if I see/hear/read a lot of good reviews, but it's not on the top of my Netflix list.
It absolutely was "the worst parts of high school" - like almost every possible terrible thing that could happen to a high school kid, happened to the main character. I finished it yesterday and overall I would say that it was hard to watch and I do have some big issues with it...when I started out I was thinking it was maybe important for high school kids to watch (just to see that yes, loneliness, being cruel, etc. DOES have consequences), but as I thought about it more I'm just not sure. I thought it sent some bad messages in a way. Not sure I'd recommend it to anyone, to be honest. :confused3
In terms of Iron Fist ... eh. I don't want to bore you with the reasons I don't particularly like it, but ... I think it will be important in setting up The Defenders, but I don't know that it's definitely a much watch. I really liked the trailer, so I'm kinda disappointed that I don't like the show, but ... whatever. After loving the first few episodes of Luke Cage and hating the end, I'm actually kinda happy that I started off not liking Iron Fist ... is that weird?
"Loving the first few episodes of Luke Cage and hating the end" was EXACTLY my reaction. I thought it started out great and then got stupid, and I hope that that is not the direction the Defenders is heading in. Maybe I'll just read an Iron Fist recap.
That Sorcerer Mickey bag is adorable!! Inside and outside!
I LOOOOOVE IT :wizard:

Seriously, LOVE the step-back weeks! They are just a nice break!

Yeah, I am super not into Marvel (I couldn't get into the Avengers or Gardians) but I really liked the Netflix Marvel shows until Luke Cage got stupid, so I'm disappointed!

I think they are so cute! If cute Disney water bottles can't get me to drink more water, nothing will!
And glad Archie got a clean bill of health at his check up. Sorry that it was expensive though.
Ahhh, it was. Worth it, obviously, but we had 3 shots, heartworm test, some meds to re-fill...yikes!!
The purse, the adorable water bottles, the cute outfit and great run.... Love it all! :D
Thanks! :teeth: Me too!!
 
Ooooh, I'll have to check out that trip report writer and the playlist on spotify. I A) love all things Tiki (parrothead over here) and B) am addicted to spotify.
Since I have yet to go to an actual Trader Sams (soon to be rectified) I might as well get to know the music now!

Cute outfit as always!

So the big question of the day: Are you going to choose the Sephora birthday skincare or the blush/lipgloss thing? I went with the skincare because I already owned that same mini-blush. I can say I liked it for my fair complexion a lot but the lipstick was too nude for me. And the skincare I really liked but the full sizes are PRICEY. That's my two cents. (I think you should go with the blush...if you are a blush person!)

I have a water bottle like that (not disney though :sad1:) and I'm good at the first half of the day or the last half of the day but have yet to do well finishing it for a whole day. Gotta keep working on that!

I am having a hard time finding good, long Disneyland TRs...so I'm re-reading his! I may have Disney-itis already!

This playlist is what finally got me to download Spotify! :rotfl2:

I chose...the blush/lip gloss! I am a big Tarte fan so it was an easy choice! I totally agree about the lipgloss though, I put it on and was just like "...ohhhh, I don't know about this!"

I feel like it looks better in this picture below than it did "in real life." Maybe it'll just take some getting used to? I basically never wear lipgloss or lip color of any kind so it's an adjustment!

My normal M-O is I forget about it until the end of the workday and then chug it before leaving...makes for an uncomfortable drive home! :eek: I do notice I feel significantly better if I am consistent with the water though!

I LIKE THAT LIPPIE ON YOU!!! I think it came out great with your hair color. It has like a peachy undertone in that pic that just suits you. I say you should definitely keep wearing it! Maybe I need to give it another chance too (I'm like you though, it's hard for me to get used to a new color)

Thank yoooouuuu :cutie:

I also have a dark red that I'm trying to get used to (Mr. Ariel484 is not a fan). Normally I got more toward sparkly corals (and by that I mean - I buy them and just end up sticking to colorless lip balm) so these are both very new to me!

Just had to put my two cents in that you look gorgeous right here! I love that lip color- it looks really a really pretty warm natural.

I also like the lip gloss and think that's a great picture of you!
:love::love::love: Thank you!! I was getting dolled up to head out to dinner with Mr. Ariel484 (joint birthday dinner :love2:)
 
I also love the lip color!

I similarly am not a regular lip-color wearer. The reapplying annoys me. (And please, no one try to sell my lipsense. I have it.)

YES with the reapply. I also hate getting it on cups and whatnot!

(Also not interested in LipSense or whatever ;))
PS... so when is your birthday!! Happy Birthday week/month! (I celebrate all month :) )
Tomorrow! :faint: Mr. A's was last Saturday so we normally do a nice dinner out together somewhere in the middle. :love2:
 
Me RN: :surfweb:

:wave: thanks for reading and saying hi!

Hahaha...I'm addicted to HE Tees. It's bad. Did you order any of Star Wars wars tops? I've resisted...so far...:faint:
My wallet made it through unscathed -- I plan on starting with the Park-themed tees, but I see it quickly devolving into ALL THE SHIRTS!

Happy Birthday!
