I ran 19 miles today.  In a row.  My poor footsies!  Walking immediately afterwards was perhaps more painful than running.  No, not 'perhaps,' it was more painful.  Also, my heart has been beating faster than normal since I finished at 9:30am.  I can tell, because I have to breathe deeper and faster.  It's freakin' weird, but I think I read ( Read more... )

So much has been going on recently, and since going to law school has made me hate typing out anything on a computer, I have procrastinated updating my beloved LJ for too, too long.  Where should I begin ( Read more... )

Yesterday at work, I sneezed.

No one said, "Bless you."

I always say bless you to people at work when they sneeze.

I hate an awkward silence after a loud, "Achoo!" (even though my sneezes aren't that loud, and don't sound like, "achoo.")

I was all sad, alone, and left to sulk with a boogery nose and a wet napkin.

Yes, folks, sitting next to me, right here under my desk at work, is literally a bag holding only things comprised of soy.  I just realized this, and found it amusing.  Here is what is in my little paper Whole Foods bag:  a carton of organic smooth vanilla VitaSoy soy milk, a package of BBQ soy crisps, and a package of ranch soy crisps.  That's it ( Read more... )

Nothing's really happened that is journal-worthy in awhile, but I thought that if I just started typing while I'm sitting here full of Reisling and watching a 'Supernatural' re-run, that something would come.  I'm feeling the urge for sushi right now.  Not hungry-- just want sushi ( Read more... )

Woo-hoo!  Looks like the move back to Chicago in September will go off without a hitch (so far).  Crazy Sue (landlady) is finally warming up to the idea of renting my place to my friend, Nick.  She's coming back from NY (where she was planning to stay for about 6 months-- what a nice landlady!) to meet him on Sunday.  He's coming to DC for the ( Read more... )

Last Wednesday night I met Jill and Dave at the Manchester Airport to begin the extended weekend of pre-wedding maid of honor duties by checking out a bunch of  wedding stuff with them in Hew Hampshire.  Jill went over all the details in her post, so I'll just list some things that stood out in my mind about the trip ( Read more... )

I'm planning on moving back to Chicago in September, doing some contract legal work and taking massage therapy classes at night.  So, with that in mind, I flew out there last weekend, took a free, all-day massage intro class at the school I'll be going to downtown, and had a load of fun.

I got in on Saturday afternoon and my friend, Breeg, picked me ( Read more... )

I only do quality LJ updates about once a week cause I'm too darn busy to type.  A lot of stuff can happen in a week. 
In general, I'd have to say that I'd prefer not to see a woman's camel toe.  EVER.  So far in my life, I've been pretty successful with that...until yesterday.  First, it started at MINT.  I was doing my 14 miler on the treadmill ( ( Read more... )
