For awhile, there was the small but real possibility that I might be able to move to Orlando. Last week that hope was dashed. So – what does one do in the wake of such a disappointment? Regroup, of course! First, I must remind myself that as much as I would die for year-round warmth and Walt Disney World...

MOON: So, let’s blog? JENN: Indeed. How was your running this week? MOON: Ehhhhhhhh. JENN: You get much in? MOON: Yeah, I went to the gym about 6 times. My left leg has been a little spotty. JENN: Oh dear. Recurring injury? MOON: Yeah, it’s been like this for about a week, maybe a bit longer. JENN: Hmmm. Might...

JENN: It’s a Photographic Memory! This is the on-ride photo from our trip on Radiator Springs Racers in Disney’s California Adventure. I was initially super bummed when I realized I had forgotten to include this in the relevant portion of our trip report, but then I realized it was a golden Photographic Memory opportunity. Moon is in the picture. Trust...

JENN: Let me start by saying I HAVE NEW SNEAKERS. MOON: Yay! Did you pick a new style? JENN: Nope, stuck with the Brooks Ravennas. MOON: Did you try anything new? JENN: I haven’t experienced any knee or hip pain with them – at least not, as far as I can tell, because of them – so I’m keeping...

JENN: First things first: I must apologize for the slow blog week previous. Things got a little hectic and I fell down on the job. But as Rafiki so wisely says: What does it matter? It’s in the past! So I soldier on. MOON: I’m sure your adoring fans were on the edge of their seats. All is well,...

JENN: So, the big news of the week, runDisney-wise, was that there is a new half marathon at Disneyland themed to – wait for it – The Avengers. Your thoughts? MOON: I did laugh out loud when I got that email in my inbox. And no, I haven’t seen the movie. JENN: Me neither. I… don’t care. Like at all. I...

I do not pretend this is a great idea. I do pretend that it’s a fast and flexible idea. I give you: The Cheater’s Grilled Cheese. You cheat because you don’t use a pan or grill or anything like that. Yes, you lose out on the buttery goodness of the standard recipe, but you gain the following things: No...

JENN: Last week we speculated that not running this week might be a thing. Did you? MOON: I did run, but very little. JENN: I did intervals. Slow, terrible intervals. MOON: I am actually in a music slump. JENN: Oh, that invariably sucks. MOON: If I’m not excited about my music then running more than 3 miles becomes dumb....

JENN: Well, this was your brainchild. Would you like to explain our new project? MOON: Okay. We were in a Disney park (Disneyland) for the billionth time and I realized that most of my photos of Jenn are her… in front of Disney property. JENN: Where I belong. MOON: And EVERYONE blogs these days… Soooooo, a Tumblr! jenninfrontofdisneythings.tumblr.com. JENN: Entitled “Jenn In Front of Disney...

Fact: I have been known to bring up Disney park customer service practices and enhancement programs in brainstorming sessions at work. They tend to go over like GANGBUSTERS. Seriously. You should try it. Before Moon and I left for Disneyland, the CEO of the organization where I work jokingly told me that he’d pay for my food expenses if...
