Currently reading #TheDarkTower, and came across a beautiful quote: “God pisses down the back of your neck every day but only drowns you once.” Thanks @stephenking.bsky.social

Just signed up for the #CentralParkHalfMarathon. This will be my first race since my IT band syndrome troubles in 22-24 and a good race test before the #JerseyCityMarathon. Very excited to be healthy and racing again! #Running #Marathon

Anybody big into dubstep around 2010? Haven’t thought about this song in over a decade, somehow just popped into my head. I definitely miss when this was the type of music topping the charts. #skrillex #dubstep #throwback

My @amtrak.com train this morning got delayed over an hour while they fixed the doors which were frozen. You'd hope the trains that run through the Northeast Corridor would be designed to handle a couple inches of snow and cold. #Amtrak #Trains #Commute #WinterStormBlair

Made some homemade gluten-free Kreplach this evening following a recipe from The Jewish Cookbook. While it was an absolute labor of 3 hours, it was worth it. I ended up with almost 80 dumplings. Throwing a bunch in the freezer for easy dinners for the next couple months. #jewish #cooking #kreplach

Finally put together my training schedule in preparation for Jersey City Marathon. Feeling excited and scared, hope I can handle the mileage ramp up injury free! 🤞 #marathon #running

A beautiful morning jog to finish out the year.

New Years Resolution for 2025 - Run 2025 miles 🫡 #2025 #running #marathon

Ran through the clouds this morning. #running #marathon

Not sure if it’s just my personal brand of carsickness, within 5 mins of sitting in a moving vehicle I knock out. It’s honestly so helpful for traveling during holidays.

Just watched #EmiliaPerez last night, it was fantastic! While I loved the music, what really blew me away was the story. I almost wish it wasn’t a musical. Some of the scenes that were very tense were paired with lighter music or dance numbers, it felt a bit distracting.

Going for runs in the winter feels like hopping in a pool - I’m a bit afraid of the cold right before I start, but once I get going I forget about the temperature and enjoy the run.

Went for a beautiful run on the National Mall tn. One of those runs where your stresses melt away and you just feel grateful to be alive. #running #marathon

Milieu has got the most pretentious word in the English language.

Very cool to see that the Philly Whole Foods that I go to is unionizing! Best of luck to the workers!

For the last year managers have been telling me I'm up for a promo next quarter. But as the deadlines approach, I'm told I'll need to wait just one more quarter. I'm told they just need more data, even though I've been rated Top Talent for 3 years now and have delivered impactful projects.

Today was a coworker's last day and I am so jealous of the relief he must be feeling. Leaving a job during this time of the year reminds me of winter break in college. Every responsibility that could possibly stress me out went away for weeks and I could just focus on important things for me.

Happy Black Friday to all! May your capitalist consumption of discount marked up plastic goods ever make the line go up.

Leg day today! I have a love/hate relationship with Bulgarian split squats. They are very effective, but they often give me DOMs for days! Really hope to not be hobbling on turkeyday.

One of the things I feel so weird about at work is that people don’t just recognize you for your achievements. If I want a promotion, I have to apply for it, if I want people to know about a win I need to document and present it. Just makes the accomplishments feel artificial and underwhelming.

Ban pharmaceutical ads!

After a crazy week of deployment, very excited to help get Favorite Applications out this week! aws.amazon.com/about-aws/wh... #aws #amazon #ux

Congrats and good luck Philadelphia Half and Full Marathon runners! #Philadelphia #HalfMarathon #Marathon

Rewarded myself post long run with some pumpkin pie. It’s a great day! 🏃‍♂️😋🥧

Making mushroom risotto tn. This such a test of my patience!

Insane that this was 12 years ago: The bottom 80% of Americans control only 7% of the wealth. I wonder how much worse it looks like today: youtu.be/QPKKQnijnsM?... Thanks @kylekulinski.bsky.social for bringing this fact back to my attention.

Nothing gets me more fired up at the gym than System of a Down. In particular, Suggestions and Prison Song really hit hard today. #SystemOfADown

Running with tailwind > running downhill

Love when I have a no meeting day at work, and then a Sev2 comes in taking up the majority of the day, then have to spend the remaining time I have left to review other peoples work. Worked the whole day and nothing to show for it. Maybe tomorrow I'll get something done. 🤷‍♂️

Just signed up for the Jersey City Marathon. Haven’t run a marathon in 2 years and never a spring marathon. Feeling quite nervous for winter training. #marathon #jersey-city-marathon

New here. Kinda want to become a bigger social media user so gonna try posting here. Doubt I’ll be a regular poster for long, but who knows 🤷‍♂️
