I only wanted 40 miles. And I thought 3 hours was my limit for the day. But when the sun is shining and the roads are wide open and when you can talk through and work through what's been stuck in your head and your heart with a girlfriend—and when you just don't do moderation—65 …

I think I see some flurries happening outside. COME ON, SPRING. In Florida, every day is just another day in terms of weather. We got rain and thunderstorms and flooding and all that, and in the Summer, it rains every afternoon for less than an hour...but then the beautiful sunshine emerges and we're back to …
I Biked, I Hiked, & I Cried But Like Only Just A Little Bit.
It’s overwhelming, this place. Colorado. Especially for someone like me who didn’t grow up in the mountains or anywhere near them; for someone like me who has only vacationed overseas and at sea level. I loved my northeast childhood and my southeast adulthood and my tropical vacations. But watching the sun hang above the Flatirons …

Ten beautiful hours of sleep later... I always look forward to Fridays because they're one of my work-from-home freelance days. Which means I don't set an alarm on Thursday night, and pajamas are my uniform I feel like it. Praise yeezus. One of my neighbors just walked by with her dog; out for a morning …
I Want To _______ So I Need To _______
I've been down on myself and my riding lately. When I say lately I mean the past four months. ^^^ This is my bike. I love it. When I want to ride it's freezing or snowing or dark or the roads are wet or not yet plowed or I'm working. Except Saturday. It's my one day …
If You’re Going Through It
I really went through it the other night. Again. It’s been over a year since I experienced the most difficult breakup and goodbye of my life. I’m through the worst of it. The laying on the floor sobbing into the thickest quilts I own. The foggy head and heart. The isolation pretending to be independence. …
Outside, Eats, Mountains + Cycling
Being outside does things to me. Soul-soothing, endorphin-pumping, damn-grateful kinda things. I think that’s why Florida did it for me for so long. I was outside every day no matter what—for morning runs or bike rides, for farmers’ market strolling, for evening and weekend walks, for some stair-running and for people-watching at my favorite coffee …
Instacart Is Too Easy
I used to think grocery delivery services were a waste of time. Which is totally stupid and backwards because the purpose is actually to save time. I thought they were a waste of money and I thought grocery shopping wasn’t a big enough hassle to warrant someone doing it for you. But. Like so many …
A Little Bit Closer to Together
Florida broke me. Wait, that’s not true. I loved Florida and still really miss it from time to time, but the Lindsay I was in Florida broke me. Because she sucked and she couldn’t see it. Because people told her that in softer but similar words and she didn’t listen or couldn’t listen or couldn’t …

Sometimes I'm still totally floored that anyone reads this thing besides my mom. And further? That people leave comments and send emails and tweet reply and text and Insta-message me. I appreciate the hell out of it, especially when that time could've been spent doing...anything else. So to you fine people, thanks a freakload. So, …
