So you know how when you have a job that requires you to work at a computer all day, it sometimes makes you not want to spend your non-working hours sitting on the computer?
I swear, I work for a week and miss out on so much. I’ve fallen way behind on my daily blog reading. I didn’t know Clay Aiken was gay and a baby daddy.
Life goes on, I guess.
It’s crunch time at the office for the next two days, but thankfully it will be a short week. I take off for St. Paul on Thursday, planning to just chill for a few days before the potential six hours of pain on Sunday morning. I secretly wished today that Minneapolis would be struck with a freak heat wave (like last year) but hot enough to warrant canceling the race. I guess an attitude like that probably means I shouldn’t run, but like all other stupid decisions I’ve made in my life, I’m going to at least give it a shot. I won’t be running with Scott this time, so I’m not sure how I’ll do without him with me, but what the hell. It isn’t that I know it can’t be done. My mental toughness on the mental toughness-o-meter is pretty low lately.
At the very least, I’ll get away for a few days to a metropolitan area, where I’ll enjoy a Starbucks brand beverage, spend a few gift cards I received for my birthday, and remember for a few days what it feels like to be a city girl, even if it means I will have to walk up stairs backwards until Wednesday.
