    Playing catch up.

    Allow me to sneak in here and just pretend I haven’t neglected this site for over three years. Instead, I thought we’d play a quick game of catch up. Major milestones Kennedy: We had a baby! Yup, a whole ass child. Her name is Kennedy Josephine and she was born in October of 2017. That’s…

    Home Stretch.

    As some of you may or may not know, this blog started off as a shared project between Yong & I. We wanted to document moving in together. The trials and tribulations of combining our living arrangements, styles and attitudes. However, Yong went on to start Romero Brooks and I became the only one who…

    Resolve to be resolute.

    Here we are, brand new year. While being out with a cold isn’t how I’d imagined starting off the year I’m going to stay positive about it. Like most people I’ve always been the type of person that make grand resolutions and can’t even remember what they were by the last week of January. But…

    running: progress, week two

    The temperature dropped about 10° from last week, down to 64°. In LA we call that cold. Sorry rest of the country, we’re spoiled! For me that means under the covers with the space heater blasting (we have no central air and poor insulation). So I’m especially proud that I went out and did my…

    doing it and doing it and doing it (not so) well.

    You guys, I’m doing it! Last week’s post was, like I said, difficult for me; but so necessary. All of last week I focused on the self-discipline part of it all. Kept myself on task when it came to the small stuff. I mean really small stuff, like replying to emails/texts/messages immediately. Especially if they…

  • just do it already.

    As a I check my twitter feed this morning I noticed a tweet from Nike Women that simply read “What are you training for?” — To which I replied, “a better me.” @infamylives How are you improving yourself today? #mymoment #nikeplus — NikeWomen (@nikewomen) October 24, 2012 They replied with a question I’ve been asking…

    week’s end.

    This weekend involved an overindulgence in everything lazy. Except trying out the ‘Best Marinade in Existence‘ as recommended by Ms. Teigen. Dude, if you’re in need of a new marinade, or just you know… like to eat really deliciously tender and juicy steak — MAKE THIS NOW. We used chuck steak because it was $3/lb.…

    Trainin’.

    He has countless other stories just like that. Yong’s dad happens to be a 9th Degree GrandMaster in Tae Kwon Do. Back in the 70s and 80s when the American fascination with martial arts hit the big time he was a pretty big deal. Training professional athletes, celebrities and the like. When Yong was growing…

    Dirty thirty.

    Can I just say that speed cooking is not my thing? It also makes for undercooked rice, grr. But everyone scraped their plates and told me it was delicious

    They’ve decided…

    …the chair is theirs. And we were all like “but you’re white dogs on a black corduroy bean bag chair, the HORROR!!” but they didn’t care. So we don’t either.
