Mom left early early this morning and ever since I've been officially on my own here in Dallas...well, Irving. It's weird...and more importantly, boring. I can't wait to make friends! Tomorrow I'm taking all of my stuff over to my apartment before the furniture comes Monday. Thank God my mom was nice enough to extend my hotel stay. Mani also goes to daycare Monday so she'll quit driving me nuts! There's just not enough for her to do around here. Or me for that matter. So I spent the day eating sour patch kids and other crap and watching the Lifetime dysfunction junction movie marathon. I had enough of that so I switched to HBO just in time to catch My Sister's Keeper. Excellent movie but I CRIED LIKE A BABY! Kinda put a damper on the day, but now I know the next book I'll be reading. Success. Hopefully I'll have more to report soon other than it's so damn hot!
Guess what I did this weekend??? I was a very good girl and asked my coach very nicely if I could please please please do the Lovin' the Hills 6 mile trail race and because he's the best he gave me the green light to participate . So, I did my very first trail race on Saturday! I'm not necessarily a stranger to trails but I definitely wouldn't say we're friends. Trail running goes on the same list as all of those really great athletes I "know" and am Facebook friends with and want to be able to be real friends with but I'm too intimidated to try. You know what I mean right? Anyway, I've run trails before and volunteered at many a trail race but I've never actually "raced" myself so this was going to be a fun new experience. The site wasn't far from my house and since I'd waited to sign up for various reasons, I didn't have to get up too too early to get there in time for race day registration. I drove to Jeffer...
I also watched that movie last night and cried. So excited for you. Glad juicy could be with you. Keep those posts coming. I so enjoy them. Ciao for now. Pat
