Memory Wipe

Jan 21, 2011 10:43

Well, as of now, it's looking like my running blog over there on blogger got wiped out.  There are still remnants of it and I seem to be following it in the dashboard, so I have faith the Google people will figure out what the heck is going on and set it right.  They're kind of big brotherish, so I'm sure they can find anything.  If not, I guess that's what I get for giving in to them.  All beliefs that they're evil have to go to the wayside when they make a browser like chrome, though.  It's just so much more effective than anybody else's (that I'm aware of at this point) that it can't be denied..

Apparently I'm not the only one with the problem.  Though, I wouldn't yet call it an epidemic either.  I'm kind of curious to see what happens.  It's been going on for over 24 hours, so obviously it's not a simple fix.

Anyway, while we're at it, the new year has been pretty good so far.  I rang it in with the usual Local H show and the usual people.  I don't think we did a day after thing, though, or at least I wasn't there and didn't hear anything about it.  Oh well, I probably wouldn't have been great company after watching Saban dismantle MSU like an NOVA dismantles SAINT robots with personalities.  How embarrassing!

I'm sick again now.  I think being out running in the cold for the Snowflake 10K did me in, and it probably didn't help that in the midst of feeling bad, I still went out jogging yesterday.  Anyway, I'm looking forward to a new year of races.  I'm doing one that's going to be real "Crazy Town" in July.  Jessi is actually somewhat paranoid of me breaking a limb for our wedding because of it.

Yes,  I did get engaged, and honestly, I don't know how that's happened considering where i was 5 years ago.  Obviously, it was a foregone conclusion this would happen to almost everyone including myself.  That's why when we first started dating it had to be a concious decision to go through with it, knowing that it would be the end of my single life, eventually.  In the end it's a good thing, though.  I'm happier, and, unlike any time before, being with Jessi is less stress, more fun, and just effortlessly easy.  Obviously all that can change on a dime if enough life is thrown at two people, and you lose sight of enjoying each other, but it's hard to think of as even a possibility right now.  As far as the details of the proposal and all that, the important part was that I brought my A-game, she said yes, and I was finally able to get it done after chickening out two times prior (one in mid-flight with a self-imposed "Abort Mission" flag raised by my brain).

Anyway, the Warrior Dash does look pretty hard core in a Nu Metal sort of way, but it looked like a good mix of fun and fear for me.  I don't like heights or climbing things at all, so the cargo nets will be a challenge, but Jason has a fear of water and he's doing it, so I manned up and signed in for the same time wave.  Mike and Pat are going as well.  I know Mike's in good shape, but Pat better start training with us by (at the latest) May, if he wants to make it.  I know it's only 3.3 miles, but it's 3.3 miles, plus obstacles, and I'm sure they're not as easy as they look.  Nothing ever is.
