My name is Tierra…

This post is dedicated to the commenter “Mike”. I know who you are. It’s no secret. I know you feel left out because I have recognized other people in this blog and not you. So Mike, this blog is for you. Queue music.

This weekend DC experienced a gnarly blizzard. Some 30 inches of snow over 24 hours was enough for Luis and I to build a snowman! His name is Sam and he stands a little over 5 feet tall.

I also thought it would be fun to run, jump, and then land in soft powdery snow. Well it wasn’t so soft or powdery. But I made an impression, nonetheless.

To put in perspective how much snow we received, it went up to above my knee. Nearly impossible to walk through.

All in all, I’m a little tired of all this snow business. My last two kickball games have been cancelled and it’s starting to bug me! More snow is expected this week. But I’m happy to report that next weekend Luis and I will be traveling to Durham, North Carolina to play with Chris Walker. Yeehaw!

Today is Ronald Reagan’s 99th birthday. Happy Birthday to the Gipper. We miss you and could certainly use your leadership!

Back in the day, I used to be tan. In fact, I would tan every so often just to keep a base. Tanning, for me, makes me feel good about myself. It’s one of those little things you do to spoil yourself. Kinda like getting a manicure. Well I stopped tanning back in November because it is SO BAD for you.. I started spray tanning instead and while it acts as a decent substitute, it just isn’t the same. Spray tanning requires more maintenance and costs more. I miss tanning. I swear, once summer rolls around I am going to lay out every weekend. Below, notice untan Tierra versus tan Tierra.
