So, I've started a new running program. I've been running pretty regularly since about March or so, but not with any plan or goal in mind other than to get fit. So, on
runners, I found this new program called Couch25K.

I think I might draw mine out a little further to avoid complications with my asthma, but I think I can do it. I want to do it. One of the things on my List Of Things To Do Before I Die is to run a half marathon (13 1/2 miles). Also, I am going to invest in a bike to ride to and from work. Both of my jobs are within 2 miles of my house, so it's no big feat, but it will get me excerising at least twice more a day. I've been drinking water pretty exclusively as of late. I dunno, I've always had bouts of wanting to change my body and become healthy, but this is the first time I can't see myself going back.
Hmm, yeah last week I went to 3 Rocket Summer shows. And pretty much died of the awesomeness. Also, TAI is an incredible live band. I always forget how much better they are live. It makes up for some of the trite lyrics. And the lack of amazing songs on Santi. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad album. But I only like about half of the songs from that one vesus virtually all of the songs from their first full length album. I've been working working working and when I'm not working I'm doing other things to keep my life running smoothly. Oh shit, which reminds me, I have to pay my phone bill tonight.
totheend_frank is starting a band. Well, he is writing music and hoping to find someone who is looking to be in a band. I've been pathetically trying to teach myself guitar since Christmas and am still very pitiful. But I told Scott that I would learn it for him so he would be able to write music and be happy. In Chicago. With me. We'll be one big queer will and grace arranged living band/ social worker. I don't even know.
Man, I need to sleep. I'm going to be a dark fairy for Halloween, because damn, I haven't had time to fins a Ron Weasley costume. oh, there will be tears shed, I know. But I am but a mortal woman. With no time. And limited funds. And no DAMN patience for Halloween costume stores.
