I was able to get to the gym and run a little today. I'm still fighting with my body over whether I should get sick or not, so I only ran 3mi, pushing past exhaustion and headaches and chills. I went to work after that, how exciting, only it was!! It was so freaking busy we prolly had 50 comps run through our area today. I do like my job so far ( Read more... )

I made myself a mocha.

Well, it snowed pretty much all day today. I was able to make it over to the gym before I had to work. I nailed out 8mi on the treadmill in 1:18:00. I did 5mi in 48:00, which is by far my best time so far for that marker. I had to stop then for approx. 5min to use the bathroom but then got right back on and did the last 3mi in 30:00. I could ( Read more... )

Well, I apologize to my fans for the lack of update since last week. I was pretty busy recovering from what I figured out was food poisoning, borderline cold, and the giving of blood. Last week just wasn't that cool. The last time I ran was on wednesday, for 2mi because of the fact that I had given blood on monday ( Read more... )

I managed to watch 2 episodes of Star Trek Voyager and did a little research on running marathons. I looked at the Boston Marathon and it's intense. The qualifications for my age group ( Read more... )

Well, I was about to get pretty pissed. Something happened where LJ kicked me back to the home screen, mid-journal entry. I was able to find it again, luckily. I was going to start over. Now I don't have to ( Read more... )

Well, I think I found a church I can attend. Even though I shy away from mega-churches, I actually like this one. It's called James River, and it's one of the Assemblies of God churches. I already started going to the gym there and found myself discontent with my parent's church, Hope Community. I found comfort in one of the Eastern Orthodox ( Read more... )

yay! more updates ( Read more... )

Here I am again, sitting at the Mud House. It's a wonderful place. I was last here 4 days ago, and there are some familiar people here. With this being only my 3rd visit here, I'm surprised to recognize anyone. Previous to my coming here, I went to the gym. When I was there I tried pushing myself but then got bored because I had forgotten my ( Read more... )

Thanks much to my cousin in the neighboring state of Illinois for showing me that the Ubuntu installer nondestructively partitions the host hard drive!! I have now stealthily installed Ubuntu on my mother's HP dv5035nr notebook computer. After thieving away 10gb of her hard dive that she'll never miss, I've completed the install after only ( Read more... )
