The title really had nothing to do with anything, but it is true. I can't believe that it is December 8th and we are having our first substantial snowfall here in the Metro Detroit area. This is said as an observation, not as a complaint, of course. Who would complain of lack of snow? I have been remembering how much I used to enjoy blogging and ( Read more... )

I recently signed up to run the Brooksie Way Half-Marathon in Rochester Hills. The run date is October 3, 2010. That means I have 3 months and 11 days until the big day.

I have been having a lot of really weird dreams lately, and last night was no exception. It was like a college reunion in my head, except for the fact that none of the things that people are doing now factored into the dream.
