*Official* 10K Race Results: 00:49:55.73.

Apparently, this time put me in 93rd overall (out of 437) in the race and third for my age group (25-29M), about 80 seconds after the second place finisher.  That pace puts me on track for a 03:30:30.85 marathon finish and qualifies me for the National Marathon in D.C. this March.  I'm pretty proud of that.

So it looks like I'm not going to make it to Orlando for an installation... this is the second trip they've pulled away from me, but whatever.  Apparently, Adam will be down my way for some training in DC when I should've been on the trip so I guess it'll still work out well.  Unfortunately, I won't be able to run into my friend who still seems to ( Read more... )

November is shaping up to be fairly prodigious:

***Expected in the first week of November*** -- my niece will be born. That's cool.

November 1st -- Concert @ Ram's Head Live! Matisyahu and the Flobots

November 4th -- Obama's going to get elected. I am unwilling to accept any other possible conclusion short of a breakdown of the Electoral College ( Read more... )

So I worked both Sat and Sun, and did one of those stupid "all-night playing video games" nights on Sunday until I chickened out at 3am on Monday. Was kind of useless yesterday, so I went to bed early only to wake up early again. Like at around 3. So it's looking like I'll be useless again today ( Read more... )

So I was supposed to run into Jaimi tomorrow for lunch and then whatever in Phillie for the day, but those in charge at BBY #1054 decided to change my schedule so I have to work tomorrow. I sort of know why they changed this around on me and, while I do see the point, I'm none too pleased with that. Kind of changes my plans a bit, too. Likely, ( Read more... )

I was just kind of off this week. Work definitely felt like work and I don't like it, goshdarnit ( Read more... )

Hrmm... don't know what to say, although I figure something needs to be said. Problem is, there's really nothing to say. Did that make any sense ( Read more... )

So it was pay day at Best Buy yesterday, and I felt that it was time to treat myself to something good. Taco Bell used to be one of my four food groups in Maine, and it's been a while since I had Mexican, so it was time to satisfy that craving. So I do the research. There's supposedly this alright Mexican restaurant in Baltimore in an area that ( Read more... )
