Wednesday, August 27, 2008. The finish line. There was an announcer in the tent on the left broadcasting our names as we crossed. (SO FUN! He even pronounced my last name OK, and when he did, I did the Rocky hands in the air. The triathlon was AMAZING. I haven't had time to really process all of my thoughts but I thought I'd report in and start to post a few of the pictures I took over the next couple of days. I am definitely hooked and hope to do another one - the sooner the better! Yesterday I bought a...

Thursday, May 21, 2009. And I can't sleep. See, I'm getting older, and I guess with that comes the sensitivity to drastic changes in sleep patterns. Last Friday night, I went out, and came home about 1 to walk Lois. We started walking when my phone rang. Um, my phone doesn't ring very often lately, for one, and for another, never does it ring past, 11? Unless it's been established via text or email with a good friend that we're awake and it's a good time to call. And "Are we a couple? Long story longer o...

Thursday, July 31, 2008. I am still underpaid, and undervalued, and to be truthful, very disappointed in the powers that be. And maybe a little bit in myself for letting myself be - as I do in all of my bad relationships - taken advantage of for little to no return of support, respect, or happiness. I am so tired of giving it away. If not, what's the alternative? Labels: broke but not broken (yet). Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Lois in the alley, after midnight. Yesterday was my excellent bike class but my t...

Tuesday, April 29, 2008. This is a picture of my car on the day it was totalled on Lake Shore Drive, while I was driving the WX home at 7am in sub-zero weather. The accident was at the end of January, and this is pretty much what it looks like now, too, since the insurance cos are in dispute and I haven't sued anyone yet. In the 24-hour pound, but in the one that closes at 5pm. Both, of course, have the same phone number and address. I was just supposed to know this apparently. So that I won't have to pa...

Thursday, May 29, 2008. And a 45-minute yoga class at this sports clothing store for rich people downtown, then I rode my bike home, and had the next morning all to myself and Lois - we went running, etc. All was well. It was an unbelievably painful few blocks. I got home, brushed, flossed, did 20 pushups and gave Lois a biscuit for hangin' in there with me, and played with her and a toy for a while and went to sleep pretty soon after. And you know what? Middle of the night. Wednesday, May 28, 2008.

Thursday, February 21, 2008. My friend S. got me the best - well, the funniest - birthday present ever. It's a rap written and performed by Rap Master Maurice for the guy I was dating/seeing/whatever up until Valentine's day, when he disclosed he'd been seeing someone else, and the next day, when he brought her to the (small) bar/music venue where he knew I would be, and stayed all evening. This is seriously hilarious and genius. Go to Rap Master Maurice's page. Once there, click on "A Lot of Nuts.".

Saturday, June 06, 2009. Lois demonstrating sorta how I feel right now about men. Yes, definitely the problem with a makeout in the midst of a dry spell, plus the warmer weather, plus extra exercise, is the residual hormonal craziness that follows. Erg. I remember my friend and college ex S went through a "Do you want to make out? Phase, where he'd just ask girls that.and that was effective for him years ago, I think he even got a girlfriend out of it! Guess I'll take my dog out. Wednesday, June 03, 2009.

poptart: So, it's been a while.
http://tartpop.blogspot.com/2009/05/so-its-been-while.html
Wednesday, May 20, 2009. So, it's been a while. Me in a 5K run this season, looking geeky. How do some runners look good after 3 miles? I dunno if this is a good thing or not, but I'm back in the blog mood. Facebook is fun, and can waste a helluva bunch of time, but I am feeling a bit more long-winded and need to sort of make a summer plan of accountability or I worry the good months will slip away. Things I am worrying about lately:. Losing weight - about 30 pounds! Uncomfortable in most of my clothes.

Monday, March 30, 2009. I am posting movies I've seen recently, mainly so I have a place to remember them. Don't worry, I'm not back to blogging again. EU Film Festival 2009:. A Woman in Berlin (Germany). Fear Me Not (Denmark). Let the Right One In (rented the one with bad subtitles, apparently). The Inspector Lynley Mysteries, seasons 1-6. Wait Why aren't you back to blogging again? Tue Mar 31, 09:24:00 AM CDT. Oh Churl, because my life is too hectic and boring for a blog! Tue Mar 31, 09:57:00 AM CDT.

Tuesday, November 18, 2008. I know (October update pics). My wonderful grandmother waving from her hospital bed. She is back home and doing much better but she scared us a bit there - she doesn't like eating or drinking water, and here's how she winds up. Stubborn! This is Clover, the dog I helped to dogsit for my friend B. Clover is old and has lost some functioning, which makes it not so easy to care for her, but what a sweet pooch - look at that face! Most of all, it was great to see him. Hmmmm - you ...
