Life happens.

April 22nd, 2009 — 7:07pm

I was sitting in a yoga studio recently waiting for a class to begin when I started talking to the girl sitting next to me. We chatted about how much we love yoga and how there was a period in our lives we were obsessed about making it to practice every day. “And then, I kinda stopped. Life just happened,” I said. She grinned a knowing smile and shook her head sympathetically. Things happen, stuff gets in the way and things fall to the wayside – whether we like it or not.

I can’t continue to try and make excuses as to why I only manage to post once every three months. Really, there is no excuse. Life just happens.

I have been traveling recently – which only furthers my posting hiatus. Pretty much every month since last November, I’ve been on the go. I’m not complaining – if I had a choice, I’d live out of suitcase. Paris in November. Chicago in December. Utah in February. Whistler and San Fran in March. Canada (the other coast) in April. I’m not doing much to save the environment burning through that much jet fuel but I am keeping myself sane. Travel is my catharsis.

Oh, Canada!

I have no excuse as to why I find it so hard to keep up this blog. Clearly, my goal of being internet-famous really isn’t that important. I mean, it’s only been FIVE months since I posted anything. I’m sure a lot has happened during that time but right now, it feels like a blur. Holidays, job interviews, birthdays, snowboarding, filing unemployment. Rinse, repeat. It all kinda runs together after a while.

Last night, we got back from a great five day snowboarding trip to Mr. Smith’s motherland. The conditions at Whistler Blackcomb weren’t awesome but I cannot even begin to describe how much I love Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. Sure, I love the snow of Utah and I will always feel at home in Colorado, but neither of those places have POUTINE.

Canada FTW!

These four five B&Bs/boutique hotels have been added to my “places to stay at on my next trip to Paris” list.

  1. La Bateau Johanna
  2. Chez Sabrina
  3. Chambre D’Hotes Bastille
  4. Les Petits Apparts D’Yvon
  5. The Five (*added to the list after reading about it in the April ‘09 issue of Saveur.)

And that trip can’t come soon enough…
