Welcome to Thursday! Almost the weekend…it is so close I can practically taste it. So since I feel like there is not enough randomness on this blog already I thought we’d start a random thoughts Thursday. So why don’t you play along?
Here are some random thoughts rolling around in my head at the present moment. I apologize in advance…oops I mean, I hope you enjoy.
–I really enjoy running trails after a long day at work when I am able to get out there. There’s nothing more fun than getting dirty with my trail pals and enjoying some icy cold beverages after. Plus it is getting cooler out so really it is the most perfect time of year for some trail adventures and to be one with nature.
–I have a random obsession lately with string cheese. And I feel like I am 6 years old again. And I have to literally take it apart in string form. Also I have trust issues with people who bite straight into the string cheese without pulling it apart. Just saying.
–Can we talk about how frustrating it is as an instructor to not have a working mic or when the music goes OUT when you teach a spin class full of people at the gym? Now you know my constant struggle.
-Like seriously, teaching spin class without music is like watching paint dry.
–And…as I just typed that rant above, the Pharrell song “Happy” just started playing on my iTunes at work. It’s clearly the universe telling me everything is going to be okay. Woo sah.
–I am planning on a random Friday off very soon so I can basically do absolutely nothing but my own selfish pursuits…you know, like get a pedicure, watching mindless TV, trail running with my personal trainer friend who always has Fridays off. It is going to be absolutely fabulous.
–It is September and I could not be happier for upcoming fall festivals…yes that means the State Fair of Texas and GRAPEFEST my favorite wine festival of all…give me the vino and life will be just peachy.
Tell me something random about your week! Do you have any fall festivals in your area coming up?

Fall Festival is going to Denver in two weeks, live in Phoenix still need to escape the heat. Also Spinning Instructor on the side, the wifi kept going out this week, and keep on smiling. Kept saying so sorry so sorry, random.
Oh no, I feel you on the frustration of wifi! I’m probably going to have to go get a bluetooth speaker as backup!!
The full week of October we have our Fall Festival. It’s over 100+ food booths. All of the booths are connected to schools, churches, and non-profits, and they all do specialty items. Because this is the Midwest there’s a ton of fried food. You can find deep-fried twinkies, oreas, one year there was even deep-fried butter, brain sandwiches, gator meat, chocolate covered crickets…It’s crazy and fun. I can’t wait. I love the potato springs and funnel cakes the best. Although, pickle shots aren’t bad either! Maybe that’s the runner in my talking.
LOL!! Yes to pickle shots!
I loves me a good Oktoberfest. Normally, I visit Montreal around Columbus Day, which is Thanksgiving in Canada. This year will not be able to make the trip because I teach on weekends this semester. 😦
Ahh, we have Oktoberfest here as well!! Lots of beer lovers like that one but I’m more of a vino gal! Cheers to fall festivities!!
I love Fall festivals. They really put me in a good mood!
Enjoy your day off!
Indeed!! So many fall festivals so little time!!
Fall festivals are my jam! Great post!
Thx!!
