so i realize we've been seriously neglecting this blog lately. i know that i have been for the last 2 years or so. but i suppose when mike was still writing i felt less guilty because i felt like he was keeping you all updated for the both of us. but now i realize.. it's just gotten bad. the last few posts have been such blow off posts. blog tag, copy and pasting other peoples blogs, and mostly pedal stuff. so figured it was time i say something... for the 3 of you out there still reading.

i'm house sitting for my friend jill right now. she has a fantastic house up in the hills of silver lake. i'm taking care of her dog peaches.. who is snoring in the chair next to me as i type this. she's had a long day.. we went on a great hike through runyon canyon in the hollywood hills. it was a beautiful day. jill is in NYC directing all my children right now. yeah.. jill's cool like that.

so i finally got myself a new car. i feel like a whole person again. although i did really enjoy riding my bike to work, 3 months without a car (in LA) was a long time. it's nice knowing i can go where i want, when i want again.

so far 2007 has been a whirlwind of crazy events and emotions. in a way it feels like it might not ever stop. i suppose that's part of the reason we've been so neglectful lately. there are some things that are still just too personal to share.

i'm really proud of mike for winning the network2 contest. and for all of the progress he's made with pedal in the last few months. he also got a freelance gig editing for NBC which is so good for him. he really deserves it. and it looks like he'll get to do more work for them when we return from filming pedal. so.. yay mike!

mike and i have been working hard lately figuring out all of the details for pedal. buying airplane tickets and ordering equipment, checking out rental vans, going over the budget and the pedal calendar. we've still got so much to do... but it's getting really exciting. i'm ready for this. i desperately need to get away. i need an adventure.

i'm sorry to all of the people i've been distant from lately. i've really been avoiding calls and emails and comments. i've been literally all over the place lately and emotionally dealing with a lot. please don't anyone take it personally.

things are starting to work out and i'm slowly feeling like myself again.

more to come soon. promise :)
