an alaskan girl's adventures in love, life and fishing

Gotcha!

Just something to make you all crazy like me:
Ever seen the movie Arachnophobia? There’s a scene in it where someone dies because she got bit in the ass by a spider hiding under her toilet seat.
Now I have to lift up the seat before I use the toilet. Every single time, in every single restroom.
And [...]

I refuse to believe it… Champagne can’t be evil!

At the dentist this morning my hygienist commented that I obviously practice “excellent” home care… and then she told me I have 3 cavities. WTF? Apparently my mouth has low ph? Gah. Anyway this was my brief conversation:
Hygienist: “Jenny, do you have any specific drinks you consume a lot, like every day, you know like [...]

Advice Pleez

Oops… too much Lolcats. Silly animals with bad grammar, can’t get enough of it.
ANYWAY, I need some opinions. Adam and I are ready to upgrade our crappy phones and I have trouble making decisions. Here are your 2 choices, please vote (and give me reasons why I would hate/love whichever you pick). I know it [...]

I’m Baaaaaaaaaack!

I know I know, I’ve been gone for like, EVER. Or only 3 weeks, but according to some of my friends that means forever.
Adam and I went on an awesome 2-week honeymoon to California and Mexico, and then I spent another week in Anaheim for a business meeting. Whew!
So… more in a bit! I’m still [...]

Tidbits #2

Adam, having trouble sleeping. It’s 3am.
 
Me: Your insomnia is giving me insomnia.
Adam: I can’t get comfortable!!
Me: Obviously. What can I do to help?
Adam: Nothing. It’s too hot in here. I’m going to sleep on the floor.
Me: WHAT? Don’t be a dork. C’mon, open the window. Do you want to switch sides?
Adam: NO!
Me: Huh?
Adam: Men don’t sleep [...]

Tidbits from the Fast household #1

Me: Honey, I think I’m going to go buy some new gym shoes this week.
Adam: Why?
Me: Well, they’re falling apart, and also I’ve been getting pretty bad shin splints since the shoes are so worn out. I’ve had them for like 2 years! There’s no support in them, and I’ve been running a lot lately.
Adam: [...]

Word to the Wise

From the un-wise.
Don’t talk on the phone while checking in at the airport using that e-check-in thingy.
And definitely don’t accidentally push the button for “yes, I am carrying multiple knives, ulus and cutting things, as well as flammable explosives” because you’re on the phone talking to your friend about your recent heavenly Sephora shopping experience.
And [...]

27 is the new 25

Or so I’d like to think. Last Wednesday brought a “new age” for me, the boring 27… and this year, just as I did last year, I stumbled through my day as a hungover, headache-ridden older girl.
See, my birthday hasn’t fallen on a weekend in a few years, so Adam and I have had my [...]

Jenny Fast, Creative Genius

Or I like to think so, at least.
This weekend, amongst fabulous late-season salmon fishing, spider-laced raspberry picking and redneck sprucehen hunting with my awesome husband, I created a drink that I’m positive will begin a new era of “mixed” drinks:
Beer, mixed with a single serve Crystal Light packet.
TA-DA!
I know, I know… you wish you’d thought [...]
