They say bad things happen in threes, so this better be it damnit!!! So far this month I have: 1) hurt the soft tissue in my foot, 2) gotten 8 stitches to the face, and 3) got the flu and a URI the day after Austin (i.e., the day I had to fly home) and spent all week in bed and spent some time getting to know an IV for dehydration!!! So now, I better be good for the rest of the year, this shit is no joke! On a brighter note, I ran 3:35.03 which is 34 minutes better than my previous fastest time, and the locals loved my shorts...favorite quote about them while running, "I'd like to see that pot of gold"...You're easily amused 23 miles into a race...

Austin

And on the 3rd day, he shall return...ok, that sounds a lil bit to biblical, and I needs God on my side this weekend!!! Off to Austin for the Austin Marathon on Sunday (I should look something like this when crossing the line, I may wear the same damn outfit actually...lol) ...Wish me luck and send me some love....and no John, if I die you CANNOT have my apartment!!!

Whole Foods

Ok, so one major problem with making people take paper bags when they don't bring their own....can you guess? I'll give you a hint...it's called fucking water!!!! Like when it snows/hails/freezing rains all day and they give you crappy paper bags to carry and the cashier insists they're strong and they break two blocks from the store!!! And one more riddle...How does one get 5 packs of cajun chicken, a pound of broccoli, bananas, apples, bread, yogurt, granola, and other bougie accoutrements home 15 blocks in said weather????? You stuff it in your pockets, work bag, etc and try not to slip on the ice and fall on you bum thus crushing your bananas...Besides that, the paper bags are awesome

To let go

So I realized something really obvious, but important recently....sometimes the only way that you can really be happy in life is to let go....you hold onto false hope....you obsess, whether consciously or subconsciously and you drive yourself crazy in the process without even knowing it....but then there's something, that one thing that makes you realize that it's time....that life has to move on....that it's difficult and that it means you have to be honest with yourself and face facts and the reality of life....only then can you really find yourself, your life and fulfill your purpose...and sometimes you get a little help from your friends to do that...

Bossip

My obsession with Bossip must stop!!!! I'm checking it all the time when I'm home and when I get a chance to at work. It's crazy....Why do I care about Kim Kard"ass"ian dating Reggie Bush? Or who the next contestants on "Flavor of Love" are or why that chick (not Beyonce) from Destiny's Child got implants? Someone help me. Stop me, or I'll end up on Lossip too!!!
