Life of a Katie...

I am Katie. This is my life. Dance parties and kitties make me happy, as do rainbows. It's hard to be a ganster with a basket on your bike. katie.ashworth@gmail.com

just call me fatty!

i am having serious gym motivation issues. i work out in the gym at my work at 5 everyday. yeah, not everyday. not only am i super hungry by about that time, i am also tired tired tired after a long day. hunger + sleepiness =/ gym time. i have only gone to the gym once this week and was totally going to go today, but, of course, i was STARVING. And, snacks do not help. i am totally ready for dinner at this time. so, dear readers, any advice?

Rory: We’re fondue purists, Grandma.
Lorelai: Yea we dip old school.
Emily: The government says you should have nine servings of fruits and vegetables per day.
Lorelai: Imperialist propaganda.
Rory: Noam Chomsky would agree.
Lorelai: I bet Noam doesn’t dip fruit

um….who said that mixing vodka and champagne was a good idea? delish and lovely, check. hangover inducing, check. i went out in west seattle last night with my roomies friends. while i am proud of myself for getting myself out of the house and pjs w/out bf, i probably should have stuck with beer. on the upside, i had a great time checking out the bars over there and making up dance moves all night!

precious memory: foo foo juice

i just remembered this for some reason: when i was little, my dad would call his jovan musk calogne “foofoo juice”. and when he put it on he would always tell us that it was made from “foo foos” and people go out into the woods and sqeeze the juice from the foo foos to make the calogne. for years, i truly believed this, probably since he told me when i was little and repeated the story for years. and it wasn’t until i was about 12 or 13 that i actually realized/found out that foo foos are not real, but only a being of my father and mine’s imagination! i will probably tell my kids the same thing!

I feel like I live for the weekends. This weekend, bf went home to his parent’s house in California, leaving me to fend for myself this weekend. As I was taking him to the airport this evening, I got a flat tire! Bf stepped up and changed the tire in the front of the airport in the loading zone in just 15 minutes! Not gonna lie, seeing him take charge and do it with so much confidence was pretty hot! So, anyways, I have a confession to make-we spend every weekend together! This is the first weekend I will be alone since he went to India in November! It is pretty disgusting really! I know, I know. I guess I will fill the weekend with all kinds of girly things that he won’t do with me…paint my nails, read mags, maybe a little shopping (although I should NOT be spending any money). As much time as I spend with him, I can’t help but feel a little sad and lonely right now w/out him.

Summer Lovin’
I honestly did not think that summer was ever going to come here in Seattle. After my first winter up here in the Pacific Northwest, I have to say I am certainly happy that it is finally here. You have to remember that I am from California, and have lived in San Diego for the last 4 years! Anyways, here are the things I have already established as my summer favorites:
laying in warm grass at parks
lemonade
iced coffee
driving with the windows down, country music nice and loud
canoeing on lake washington
gardening (even though it has started costing me tres $$)

GPOYW: Me and Curly Barkley edition. This is my parent’s doggie. My dad taught him to howl like a wolf, and now when my father walks in the door after work, Curly runs to him and start howling. And my dad howls back! It’s pretty adorable! This was also taken in October, right before I moved to Seattle.
