It’s weird because it feels like today is Monday. That’s fair enough considering I work all day tomorrow and Saturday…Sunday is of course Easter which means a church service in the morning (super excited to play for what I understand is an all-Latin mass for this one!)…and then Monday should feel like Friday but it’ll actually be Monday…did I confuse you completely yet? Or, more likely…bore you?

We had a freak snowstorm on Sunday, as you probably know.

I saw this on facebook the next day. 

This is what I love to hate about St Louis—people think this is unusual.  Maybe Cleveland was crazy too, but we had plenty of warm one day, cold and snowy the next. It’s called: weather. It happens everywhere, along with most things that people here tend to think are “only in St Louis.”

I have said many times: the things that people think are unique to St Louis generally aren’t, and the thing St Louisians think are normal everywhere often are actually unique to St Louis.  I’d name them, but I’m tired and I don’t want to see like a huge jerk.

Bathroom selfie! I got a new workout top at Target and wanted to instagram it.

Which eventually led to this “Inspirational photo”…thanks Tracy! I think it’s important to feel good when you’re working out. I love longer tops because I’m not a huge fan of showing my belly when I’m doing burpees or thrusters or whatever other stuff is named that involves jumping or leaping or pushing my arms up towards the air.

Thanks for your kind comments about my last post. I’m fine. I just get tired of the world I live in sometimes and wish I could change it. I can try, or I can simply choose to live a different life than most in society do.  As one of my Suzuki teacher trainers said (Susan Kempter): we as violin teachers can offer our families an alternative. I feel that I live that alternative as well.

I was wearing a hooded sweatshirt the other night and tweeted about it. I’m told that everybody calls these hoodies. That’s from a race, back when I used to run…oh and I’m doing a half marathon next weekend. And I signed up for a fall marathon. This will actually happen because we all know I have tons of time in the summer to train. 2013 just hasn’t been quite what I planned but I really feel like things have turned a corner as far as my physical and mental health and my schedule.

This was one of the most delicious tacos I’ve ever had. Imagine a taco made of cool ranch doritos. Okay? There you have it. People tend to either love or hate Taco Bell. You can perhaps guess where my feelings lie.

Tell me something random.
