My mother purchased a body spray from Bath & Body Works on Sunday and proudly showed it off to me on Sunday night. I agreed that it smelled very nice, but I’m not really a perfume, body spray or scented lotion kind of woman. I was once, but I now allow Dove soaps and Dove [...]
It’s like they know. It’s like my job knows when I’m having (or will have, if you look at the links) a spectacular weekend. My job knows and plots on how to best piss me off come Monday morning (or whatever day I happen to be returning [or leaving]).
Of course, I had a fantastic weekend. [...]
Running has not been good this week, but not because I’m tired or because I’m slowly but surely reaching my breaking point. Barring an injury, I should be fine through the end of training and the half-marathon.
No, what’s ruining my runs lately are the damn dogs. I am gradually beginning to dislike every single dog [...]
I have spent my day:
A) Debating on whether or not to run tonightB) Reading Stephen King’s Pet SemataryC) Wandering around the house with no work to doD) All of the above
You guess. I’ll continue to do what I’m doing.
I did it! In less than two hours! And I am so proud of my–

Escort LX, 2-door Hatchback. Beloved Transportation. 1995-2005.
On the bright side, I won’t have to pay more than $400 in car insurance this October.
Happy Independence Day! On this day in 1810, Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla called on Mexicans to fight for their independence from Spain (okay, so it might’ve been the 15th–no one’s ever been clear on that, but it also lets us start celebrating at 11pm on the 15th all through today). In 1821, we finally got [...]
After my meeting at the office this morning, I climbed into my supposedly fixed car, turned the thing on, then proceeded. I was going slow since I was in a business park, but as soon as I got onto the main road, I depressed the accelerator in order to run at the indicated 45 miles [...]
So, how’d my run go?
. . .
It didn’t.
See, here’s the thing. The website where I first saw the race, Run Michigan, and the website where I registered for the race, Active, both have a start time of 8:30am for the race. There is no differentiation between start times for all the runs offered. So, I [...]
