The answer

Friday, April 28th, 2006

I’m leaving.
I’ve been at Complete Running for almost 2 years now and its been a great ride. Mark has done a great job with the site despite all the ups and downs of late. I had talked to Mark about an opportunity that came up for me a little over a month and [...]

The secret

Thursday, April 27th, 2006

Remember I said I had a secret? Time to let the secret out. Its one of the things listed below, the rest are lies. For those who already know, just keep quiet for now (please?).
1. I have finished writing the children’s book that I have always wanted to write (from my [...]

Oh so very bad.

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

Something very bad has happened.  Not like somebody is dead bad, or the world will end bad, but more like a great big rock is going to fall from the sky on me bad, and everyone will blame me for it bad.  Bad.  Remember that scene from the movie Lord of the Rings where they [...]

Simple pleasures

I got tagged by Pam for this virus meme. 10 simple pleasures. Let’s see.
1. Chocolate (d’ya think?)
2. afternoon naps in the summertime with the windows open and the cicadas buzzing outside
3. fishing when the fish aren’t biting and I have all day to drink cold lemonade and eat chicken sandwiches from a cooler
4. warm [...]

Here’s what we’re doing today

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

Ok, here is my productive day today. You can play along too.
Take your right index finger and stick in up your right nostril and twist it back and forth.
Then take your left index finger, point it upwards, and make little circles in the air.

I ran three miles!

Monday, April 24th, 2006

When did running three miles become such a challenge?  Well, when I turned into a lazy blob, that’s when.
I ran three miles at the gym on the ‘mill.  I put it at 3% incline (I think that’s down a bit) and did a nice 9:30 pace.  The first mile was pretty nice, but the last [...]

KABLAAAM!!!!!!

Sunday, April 23rd, 2006

Just got woken up by some LUNATIC that crashed into a telephone pole in front of our house. KABLAM!
Grab my flashlight, first aid kit, towels (to stop severe bleeding), run out like a lunatic down to the road. They hit a power pole on our side. Windows are all blown out, airbags [...]

I am Pam.

Saturday, April 22nd, 2006

Pam was right.  I’ve become her.  My wife asked me tonight if I wanted to run at the park while she road her bike along side.  “No.  I was going to stay inside now.  Besides, I think the path is wet.
The path is wet.  Yeah, the asphalt running path.  The same path where I ran [...]

Its happened. I’m a sloth

Its 9:30 am on Saturday.  I’ve been up since 8:00.  I don’t to leave to go anywhere until 10:30.  Did I get up and go out and run my three miles?  No.  I opened another giant can of chocolate covered caramel corn and sat in front of the computer and ate it.
