My parrot really tends to disrupt my love life. His cage is in the bedroom and oftentimes he interrupts when Marc and I are trying to have relations with each other. We'll be in the moment and here's Sammy blowing kisses, which causes us to burst into laugher, cover the cage with a sheet, and try to get back into the moment.
Even though that's way too much information, I thought it would be funny to picture a parrot interrupting you when you're trying to get busy... by the way, covering the cage with a sheet doesn't always help so sometimes we just have to tune him out...or just wheel his cage out into the hallway.
I had an exceptionally amazing run on saturday morning. I went to a park with a track and ran a 5k in 22:15. I almost crapped myself when I realized how fast I was running. I think I'm ready for my 10 mile race at the end of the month. I'm switching up slower long runs some days with shorter faster runs and I seem to be in good shape. The scale also says 129 more than it says 130 so that makes me happy too. Baby steps. But anyway....running a 5k on a track with no one else there isnt really realistic. The 5ks I run in Chicago are usually accompanied by 2200 other people and its crowded as hell. I never run that fast when I run a race. It made me feel damn good too.
This year I decided that I'm not going to let my summer run away from me. Last summer and the summer before, I did way too much crap and was too busy to enjoy myself. Every other week I had stuff going on when all I wanted to do was spend a nice weekend with Marc.
I'm taking a vacation weekend specifically for that purpose. I have the day off Friday June 5th and monday June 8th. I dont know what we're doing that weekend but its going to be a weekend just for us. ha.
Remind me that I need paper towels, toothpaste and cotton balls. I keep forgetting.
