Brian Wilson

My dad and I went to see Brian Wilson last night at The National in Richmond and had a great time! (My favorite quote of my night was my dad saying, "You know, Robyn, I don't know how excited you are about this, but he is a living legend." HA! I know dad- I only grew up listening to his music ALL THE TIME from you). I was very impressed with his band and was once again reminded of how much I love his music. It was a late night for me, as the concert was from 8-10:15 PM (on a school night!!!), but I enjoyed myself. Check out some of the pictures and video below:)

Also, we think one guy thought I was my dad's younger wife- that was a first! Ha!

Ignore my signing on the video :)

Otherwise, I have been sleeping a lot this week to get over my cold, rest during my peak week in running (I had two 5-milers and a 10-miler this week), and prep for my final 20 miler tomorrow! I feel good, but I am VERY excited to begin tapering:):):) I am looking forward to an evening of catching up on all the shows I missed last night and hitting the sack early! Welcome to adulthood...aka marathon training:)

Have a great Friday!

Weekend Tunes

I know I try to pride myself on not posting music/lyrics on here too much, but I heard a new song this week that I can't get out of my head. Yes, it is from "Glee," but the song is fabulous despite me hearing their version first:



I have my own opinion of the lyrics, but everyone can take away their own interpretation from it. I think it is great and was featured in a pretty powerful sequence on the show that otherwise is quickly becoming way too over the top.

Anyways, happy weekend to you all. I am spending it dog sitting Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings (overnight)/afternoons, which means my social life is dictated by the pooch. BUT that doesn't mean I don't get to grab some food with various friends and walk the "Oregon Trail" with my friend Emily (as she has dubbed it) to the local Starbucks! I still don't fully understand how people are ok with strangers staying the night in their home with their dog, but I am a cat person so obviously that is another world to me.
