I think I'm going to have sanders268 and fonticulus become my life coaches. They were both spot on about going to the running store and getting decent shoes. They were also correct in their assertion that the store would not be filled with hateful, marathon running ogres. I'm pretty sure I was pre-emptively painting the store employees with the brush dipped in the ( Read more... )

My mantra has always been, “I’m not running anywhere. Even if someone is chasing me with a knife, I’m not running because I’m sure as hell not dying out of breath.” I am the girl who wrote a scathing, thinly veiled short story skewering my middle school gym teacher (I did win a creative writing award for that one, though).

A few years ago, I participated in a program at a local elementary school called H.O.S.T. (Helping One Student TO Succeed). I was paired up with a hardened little urchin named James.

I admit to being a bit of a fangirl. My fangirl tendencies encompass writers (David Sedaris), artists (Andrew Wyeth and Dale Chihuly), but the truly rabid fandom is reserved for musicans, though my stalking tendencies of Andrew Wyeth have borne fruit on 2 occassions.
