Monday: Work all day then gym with the coworkers. Ran a faster 2 miles than usual. Lifted some weights to work on my legs and arms.
Tuesday: Work all day then hills and more weights. Nice and sore.
I think I may have convinced another crazy person to join our Tough Mudder team. I’m excited that some people want to do this.
Run
2.9 miles today. Nice.
Challenges
This year is shaping up to be the one where I feel that I have been the bravest. I joined a team for the Tough Mudder challenge, I asked out that boy, I applied and go accepted into a pre-vet program.
I have no idea where all this has come from. It is causing me anxiety though but if I can get through all of these new challenges then I will only be better for it.
Oh PS, I ran 2.3 miles today....
Bravery
I was brave for one of the few times in my life a couple of days ago. Granted I wanted to puke and pass out in the process I managed to muster up all the courage I had in my 62 inch body. I’m not sure where it came from and I’m still surprised.

New Year
Let’s see, well since my last real post, I have lost a few pounds (like 2-3) with diet changes and exercise which is nice. I have been using the Nike Training Coach app which is pretty neat and it kicks my butt too. I’m working on strengthening my knees and legs to be able to run a 5k. So far I am able to run two miles. That is a pretty amazing feat from that girl in high school who...

Year in Review According to Facebook.
A year in review according to some Facebook statues.
January:
“Snow day again!!”
February:
“Oh my way to the ER. Nothing serious, probably a broken toe and can’t walk correctly but to all those people who don’t want universal health care, go fuck yourself because I have no health insurance yet.”
March:
“Ha, first our range dies now our...
So I think I might make this a health tumblr for myself. Damn holidays made me put on a few pounds. Thank you cookies and cake and cookies and cookies. Actually, thank you to all our clients who thought of us during the holidays and brought us tons of snacks. It’s appreciated.
Anyway, I started yesterday eating healthy and whatnot. Oatmeal for breakfast, spinach salad for lunch, an apple,...

somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond
somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond any experience, your eyes have their silence: in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me, or which i cannot touch because they are too near your slightest look will easily unclose me though i have closed myself as fingers, you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens (touching skilfully, mysteriously) her first rose or if your...

I have a dog.
I haven’t had a dog of my own for about 11 years now and I recently adopted one about a month ago. The day I went to pick her up and free her from the 6 months she’s lived in a cage, there was an earthquake. Perhaps that was foreshadowing of the new adventure I was going on. I don’t believe it was a negative sign but more of a get-ready-for-surprises type of sign.
In the month...

The gifs below are rather beautiful. There are some beautiful people working at Pixar. It is especially nice to look at considering I’ve been feeling so down lately. I’m not sure when my happy will decide to return but for now I can wish that I was in a house flying far away.
