urgh.
i'm so agitated and concerned and angry and worried about everything that's happening in washington that i can't even focus on what's happening in minnesota. i've been doing all sorts of work for the burnsville relay for life, but it's hard to focus while also trying to do things for your state representatives when you disagree with many of the things they are fighting for. it's also hard to argue that something is unconstitutional when you don't even have a pre-law bachelors, let alone a masters in constitutional law. which i now wish i had.
i'm trying to tackle the issues and where i stand on each one at a time. i think this is how i have to approach my other blog, too. all of our problems look smaller when tackled individually and methodically. i just wish congress would adopt the same kind of protocol.
running helps. sam, i finally started the couch to 5k program you talked to me about so many months ago. thus far i'm really liking it, it seems to go at just the right pace for me. i've only been doing it for about a week, but i already feel better. now the goal is just to stick with it and hopefully enter a 5k race before next winter. lofty goals, but maybe.
if the other blog is where i put the funny and interesting things, i guess the scraps and leftovers and pathetic whining goes here. just because i love you all so much.
urgh.
