OAkley JUPITER GLASSES


I cruised up to Oakley to see Blick the other day, and discovered my new favorite sunglasses. They are like the frogskins, but newskool and smaller. Named Jupiter- after the Roman god of light and sky.

WOMEN's Sports foundation event


NEW YORK, NY
Sorry for the lack of updates. I have been really preoccupied with rehab... Anyway, 12 Days post-op, I crutched my way through airports and flew to NYC to participate in a Women's Sports Foundation Charity Dinner. It was a Black tie event hosting 70 of the planet’s top female athletes and a few celebs which raised about $1.4 million that will be turned into grants and educational-related programming for girls/women in sports.

Chop shop


CHULA VISTA, CA
After 9 and a half months with a ruptured ACL (Anterior cruciate ligament) in my right knee, I finally had surgery today!! 10 years ago when I had ACL recon on my other knee, they used a graft from my hamstring, cause your own body tissue is stronger usually, but I opted for a cadaver allograft this time, and had a really successful surgery. Can already bend, put light weight on it, and am in a lot less pain. Healing time for this injury is around 4-6 months, but wearing a brace and continuing like I had been was not an option for me. I will be stronger when I return with the use of OTC facilities, hyperbaric, aggressive rehab, and hard work. Thanks Dr. Selecky, Bryn, Dan Dial, and Stephanie, for looking after me.
