http://www.laurieelaine.com/2014/02/spring-break-2k14.html
Thursday, February 27, 2014. But in a month, I won't have to wish myself there. I will be on St. John and it will be 85-88 degrees and I'll be snorkeling or laying on a white beach or drinking a painkiller or maybe all of the above. I have never in my life needed 8 days of unadulterated warmth this badly. So, am I ridiculously excited that today is one day closer to my Spring Break Getaway? Laurie Elaine, Ph.D. Ahcount them down.it will be sunny days ahead! February 28, 2014 at 3:08 PM. Charmed, i'm sure.

Saturday, October 5, 2013. In my last post I included the new-ish John Mayer song that is currently rocking my socks off. And when I posted that video I realized that I have kind of developed a Summer Soundtrack. It all started back in April, when Summer was still just a dream and a wish on a snowy day. I think it was the change of the seasons taking so long that made me so emo. But during that phase in my year, I was driving in my car when this song came on:.

http://www.laurieelaine.com/2014/02/31.html
Wednesday, February 12, 2014. Today I turned 31. I dislike saying that. I feel weird about being 31 because that just can't be right. can it? This year was the first year I've lied about my age. It was with a wink and a nudge and a joke about how amazing it was that I magically quit aging - but those are all just a bunch of tactics used to avoid the truth. 29 is wrong, but 31 doesn't feel right. Two events that I love ( well I'm kind of falling out of love with aging. During the last Summer Olympics I wa...

Thursday, February 28, 2013. Then Monday I woke up. And my first thought was: "HOLY SHIT WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY ELBOW? Because the pain was REAL. And it wasn't on the surface, it was in. My elbow. Looking in the mirror I didn't notice any swelling, but it felt. But of course I googled/webMDed it first. And I found out that yes, your elbow could totally get infected. Let's look at a picture:.

Thursday, November 21, 2013. The past three days have been so stressful because as it turns out there's a lot to do to prepare to leave the country for 9 days. You know, ridiculously essential things like sewing sequins to a sweatshirt or dealing with your first world problems. I wasn't prepared for all of the hullabaloo (side note: that is one of the best words EVER). Because sadly, I haven't done this as an adult. Okay I guess I was 18 (or nearly?

http://www.laurieelaine.com/2013/11/rock-me-mama.html
Saturday, November 23, 2013. Did you know the song "Wagon Wheel" by Old Crow Medicine Show is co-written in by Bob Dylan? Anyways, today has been a whirlwind and I'm guessing it's a testament to jet lag and Smithwicks that I'm even still awake enough to coherently tell you about it. I keep forgetting to capture the sights on my cell phone but here are a few animal centric moments from today. First there were the horses that we found in the fog during our morning jaunt through the Gap of Dunloe:. If you d...

Tuesday, April 23, 2013. The advantage of wearing sunglasses is that you can't tell that I never took my eyes off the road. They'll just CGI the missing parts in. This guy is totally camera ready though. Once you dock at the pier on Vieques you take a taxi over to Island Adventures Biobay Tours which has an associated restaurant where we all ate dinner. We all chose mofongo because mofongo is amazing and we tried to eat it every day during the trip. Bellies full of mofongo. From the boat ride back. The w...

http://www.laurieelaine.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 19, 2012. That's kind of a misleading blog title, because most of these things are things I don't actually have. But are new things I've been doing. If you've seen a Minnesota license plate, then you know we have 10,000 lakes up in here. After I got back from a whirlwind 2 weeks of travel in July, a few of my friends and I decided it was about time to start exploring them. And not by walking around them.we'd been there and done that. This time, we went by kayak. I just love the way they sm...

Thursday, January 24, 2013. I got an email yesterday encouraging me to shop because: "Studies suggest that this is the year's most depressing week, when winter blues reach a climax". And ya'll that totally. Makes sense to me. If there was ever a place trying to win at being winter.it's Minneapolis. This past week temperatures have been being a major beotch by topping out at 5 degrees but feeling like -25. You Heard. Me. This just proves that LA is probably not ever going to my jam. It was 16 degrees.
