Hodge podging it: a fun way to say a bunch of random crap.

The Oscars: 

I thought there were so many pretty dresses and looks on Sunday night at the Oscars. But the three that nailed it in my opinion were:

1.  Naomi Watts - She was classic and yet was very fresh and with the times.

2. Charlize Theron - I LOVE her hair. I always thing going short is bold and she pulled the look off flawlessly and looked so comfortable in her skin.

3. Jessica Chastain - She looks stunning in the "Old Hollywood" look. And that night she also rocked a serious red lip.

Best Couple of the Night - Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner.

I loved his speech because he talked about marriage being work. It was so right on and I know he took a lot of flack for it, but I wholeheartedly agree with it and glad someone in Hollywood finally said it.

Also, he's hot and she's really pretty.

On Encouragement 

I want to take a quick moment to say if you’re losing weight and you see others doing the same, take the time to encourage that person. A kind word goes a long way. And weight loss is really hard. So it makes sense that we all stick together while doing it!

Whole Foods 

I may or may not have a slight obsession with this store. I know my daddy would probably tell me that it was the land of the yuppies and that I’ve officially crossed over because I like this store so well.

But I just can’t help myself!

The downside is that it is SUPER expensive. I think there are lots of reasons why people don’t buy organic but the biggest one is that people can’t afford it. I understand that if it is necessary that sacrifices will and should be made. However, the cost of things was absurd. There has to be some middle ground somewhere. People shouldn’t have to give up doing fun things so they can eat. (How is that for a first world problem?)

Winter

I’m over it. Seriously. The snow isn’t fun to me anymore. It just is a pain in the butt that I have to wait to be cleaned off to go run. And I’m tired of wearing boots not because I want to but because I have to.

(Edited to Add: It is a flipping blizzard here right now.)

Race Season

I am really looking forward to my first full race season!  I'm currently registered for two races and I'm registering for a third one soon! The running community is just a bunch of fun people. Everyone is super encouraging, friendly, and helpful. It's beginning to be one of my favorite communities I'm a part of.

What's going on in your world that you're digging? Happy Wednesday!
