That awkward moment when
Your best friend comments on a tumblr post and you start crying on the spin bike.
Excuse me while I have a quarter-life crisis ha.
But really, I love you guys. Thanks for giving me a high-tech shoulder to cry on.

My poor toes
Why do they always hurt?
My big toe started December’s tendonitis. Now my three little toes have that “uncrackable” feeling.
Further proof that I hate the week before my birthday. Without fail, I always get unexplainably sad. But this year, it’s pretty much obvious.
I’m turning 25 on Friday. What am I doing with my life?
I don’t know.
I do know that...
150 cookies later
Never making cookies again.
lol jk.
Today, I am annoyed with everyone.

Sara's on tumblr! →
Dear followers,
My best friend/cousin-in-law/crafter extraordinaire just (re)joined tumblr! She’s a new mommy and looking to join the fitblr community. Give her some love and encouragement!
P.S. - She’s also the gift giver of my awesome new birthday purse.
P.P.S. - I turn 25 in one week. Kill me.

What is celestesepessy.com? →
For the past seven years, I labeled myself as a magazine writer.
However, along the way, I’ve worked with various regional and national businesses to develop content and marketing strategies. I’ve edited technical documents, Ph.D papers and educational webinars—among other things. And I’ve written. A lot.
My new venture at celestesepessy.com offers editorial services...

My fellow gym patrons are especially smelly this morning.

I was going to go to the gym tonight
But after a very crazy 24 hours, I think I deserve a break.
Last-minute client meeting. Last-minute resume/portfolio/strategy gathering. Last-minute client obtaining (!!!).
So, this morning’s 3-mile run is enough. I don’t need to kill myself.
I do need my bed. And a book.
See you at 4 a.m. for Body Pump.

1/24 Log - A very good day
Tomorrow I have my first client meeting … with the Bod Pod owners!
I am ecstatic. Nervous. Totally ready and totally unprepared at the same time.
This morning I was talking to the client in my undies. Tomorrow we’ll be discussing business. Natural progression.
Tuesday, 1/24
Macros (fat/carbs/protein percentage): 23/49/28
Gym: 6 miles treadmill, 50 push ups
Kill Bill
Probably the best movie I could watch on the treadmill.
So epic. I want to be hot and sassy. And maybe chop some heads off.
Just saying.

Too much branding, too little blogging lately.
2012 is proving to be a busy—but incredibly exciting—year.

So tired
I need to rest. Mentally and physically.
Christmas and Thanksgiving were my last two rest days.
Today I have a staff meeting, school, then three tutoring appointments.
I left the house at 5 a.m., and I’ll get home around 8 p.m. It’s Monday, round two.
Tomorrow, sleep in. Right now, Body Pump.

1/14-17 Log
I have been exercising a lot (as usual), but the past few days have been a bit pathetic in the macros department. I owe it all to frozen yogurt, cake, ice cream and Sbux frapzzzzz. Thanks!

I've been absent.
I’m slumping. Unmotivated, bored, apathetic.
Here’s why. I think.
1. I am having some serious sugar issues. I’ve always had a sweet tooth, but it has reached an all-time high (well, low) in the past few months. There are days when I will have frozen yogurt, a Starbucks frappuccino and a McDonald’s ice cream cone in the same day. No lie. Keep in mind that I’m...

Often forgotten benefit of being healthy
The last time I was sick: December 18, 2010.
13 months ago. No sore throats, runny noses, coughs since then.
Did I mention … I’m a teacher?
Pretty amazing, if you ask me.

What more could I ask for?
P.S. - Just made an addition: Mexican Chocolate Cake with Mascarpone Frosting.
