this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Theo, I hope your friend gets the help she needs. You're a good friend.

In stunning synchronicity with the marathon posts, I found out about an hour ago that my BiL is running a marathon RIGHT NOW. He should finish in about 2 minutes.

Tim and I, OTOH, are spending our Sunday at the chocolate festival, because I would rather stuff my face with chocolate than run. Come on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You're a good friend, Theo.

I am the world's biggest slug this weekend. At least I cleaned the bathroom.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Echoing that.

aurelia, I'll never look at catalog models the same way again. That was funny!

I'd love to run a marathon, but seeing as I can't quite get my asthma under control, I may never make it to a brisk walk down the block. Speaking of which, while diving through the archives, I found a post I wrote in 2004 where I said "y'all have just about convinced me that I really am asthmatic". I should have listened; y'all were, as usual, right.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm glad your friend has you looking out for her (and her cat), Theo. You really stepped up.

As I lay in bed this morning before the sun came up, before the cats demanded I let them out, awake but not quite ready to get up, I could breathe easily and my muscles were not sore and the day seemed full of potential. All of that has changed.

Shoulda stood in bed.

I have the 0.0 sticker! It's from The Oatmeal!

I'm not a runner, but I love cheering them. Those moments-when you get a weak grin, someone whacks your tambourine, the mouthed thank you to whatever you shouted, the pumped fists at mile 22/9, the held eye contact and a nod, watching someone clearly spent stand a little taller, step a little stronger, telling someone stopped with a cra

Sounds like you were doing it all kinda of right, Sara! Two years ago I went to cheer my roomie on at the Seattle Half, and ended up staying for hours, with my cowbell. Last year we went to the worst hill on the course and cheered for like, 4 hours with signs and a vuvuzela. This year I was all excited when I realized I'm coming back from thanksgiving on Saturday, so ican cheer again this year!!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It seems like a .131 or a .262 one would be nice, as well.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I’m avoiding cleaning my apartment by editing photographs. I currently have 25 pictures queued up on Tumblr.

hip deep in pie

I am making dinner for a friend who is coming over to watch Downton. I am about halfway through prep and I am totally out of gas.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Went to brunch with my folks and Gary's mom. Now doing laundry and catching up on stuff on the DVR.
