so, here you go miss maritza :) (some day i hope to meet you!)
this is my latest ink.
(yes, dad, i really did that. yes, it's right there for everyone to see. somehow i think the family might think this is a little *too* forward and i await the phone to ring with some kind of commentary...and yes, i am 35 years old, but parents are still parents with opinions they'll share...)
it's to get me through, well, life, but also? my first marathon....
june 20.
i registered this week.
so in all of the miles that i'll start hammering out on the 28th (yes the 16 week training program starts one week and one day from now...) i can look at my teammates, friends, and my own wrist, and do just what it says while trying to not lose my sanity or self worth.
this week, i also got the crud (cough cough cough) and i will blame the constant use of public computers for this. :(
but despite that, here i sit tonight singin' along (loudly and a little raspily) to this:
a country classic girl.. who died too young. but had a great great set of pipes...and good lyrics (with a really young willie helpin her with a few good lyrics...) i sang some patsy at karaoke last week, so i felt like some more tonight while mark is at rehearsal.
i'm tired, sad and wanting to be better...
time for some dinner, chores and a little bit of Things for the workland...
