I feel like time is speeding by today, very slowly. That doesn’t make sense, does it? No, it does not. It’s just that, every time I’ve looked at the clock today, i’ve been impressed with how much time has lapsed since I last looked at the clock. But I am still overcome with sadness when [...]

Two Down, Eleventy Billion To Go!
I saw a dead goose in the road this morning. This goose wasn’t just dead. Oh no. It was absolutely massacred. Obliterated in it’s attempts to cross from one side of the road to the other. I think it may have been a younger goose, too. The wreckage was much smaller than some of the [...]
I Think I Can!
Well, I opted to eat nothing on the morning of the run. I drank about half a bottle of water and took a couple swigs of some Diet Coke so I could wake up. Coffee was out for before the run because, let’s be honest, it makes me have to poop and I didn’t want [...]
Run, Run, Run…As Fast as You Can!
I am so nervous about tomorrow, I can’t even think straight. I just keep trying to tell myself that it’s just a super long workout. It’s nothing more than a longer than regular, work oouuuut. I never think twice about doing a 45 minute, crazy rigorous, Jillian Michaels video…so why should I be worried [...]
Holy Hot Weather, Batman!
Holy Goodness, ya’ll. It’s a hot one.
And? I LOVE it!
I would totally prefer to be sitting next to a pool with a yummy beverage in hand…but I will certainly cut my losses just knowing that it is finally SUMMER!
One thing I am worried about, though? I may die on Saturday. So, you know…that may put [...]
I Promise I’m not Always This Sappy
Clumsy in love. I read that phrase today, in a novel that is, so far, very beautiful. And it fractured my concentration on the novel, sending it skipping this way and that to realize that I’ve been feeling that way lately. Clumsy in love.
You know the feeling of being clumsy. Especially when you want [...]
Taking Root
This past weekend, Dorian and I had the distinct privilege of becoming the Godparents to my cousin’s brand new baby girl. And I just cannot even tell you how strong a hold that delicious bundle of baby already has on my heart. She single-handedly restored the passion for parenthood that I thought I’d lost on [...]
Duck, Duck, Duck, GOOSE!
I hate geese. I really do. They are a vile, gigantic, territorial, hissy-fit-throwing bird that make running through my apartment complex an absolute nightmare. On more than one occassion, I’ve found “picking up the pace” to be no problem, whatsoever, because one of those effing birds was a little too close for comfort. Seriously, they [...]
Work and er…Working Out…?
Yesterday, I attended an all day conference for professional women. (I would tell you exactly what the conference was and who hosted it, but I don’t feel like advertising for a company I am a.) not yet sold on and b.) not getting reimbursed to advertise for…because frankly? I would be shameless in allowing advertisements [...]
He Must be Pretty Special
My boss is on vacation this week. He’s got, what sounds like, an incredible family reunion going on in Arkansas. Anyways, he’s gone. Out of the office since last Thursday and will not be returning until this coming Monday. I will be the first to admit that I kind of love it when the managers [...]
