well I have the week off of school this week as a break between the summer and fall semesters. I am enjoying not having more work to do when I get off work. It's been pretty hot this week so it makes you thankful for the air conditioning.
Last night I went down to Croc's restaurant for a Green Drink's get-together. It was pretty fun and they even give you a ticket for a free organic beer or wine from Virginia, which was awesome! I had a beer called Starr Hill by Dave Matthews and it's brewed out of Charlottesville area. Croc's has amazing food and they said that they use all organic or sustainable food as much as possible and even have organic liquor like vodka! haha...I didn't even know they could do that with liquor but I don't know the source of most liquor anyway. So yeah, I had a good time, good food, and good drink then I headed home to relax on one of my final free nights before Christmas. Once classes start Monday, I probably won't have much of a life until I get a break at Thanksgiving and Christmas time. I am taking two classes so I hope I can handle it all with working on top of that. That is why I really need to get this practicum stuff out of the way so I don't have to worry about doing that stuff on top of everything.
I am going to Bush Gardens on Saturday with my family because I don't know if I will be able to go anymore this summer. I definitely dont think I'll be able to go when my cousins come down cause I will have to work since I'm already getting labor day off. I doubt they will want to go on labor day because they usually go later in the week like friday. Oh well. There's always howl-o-scream and stuff like that.
Rock n Roll 1/2 marathon is only a couple weeks away and I know that I'm not fully ready but it's ok. I haven't had the time to train and that's ok because my life is hectic enough as it is. I plan on running two miles then walking for a little bit then running two miles, etc. I know that I will finish eventually so I'm not worried about it and I can always pull out if I really need to, there's no pressure. I just hope it's not like 90 degrees that day, I think that will make it worse for everyone.
Things are complicated with Matt. I want to be with him and love him like I used to but the way he has treated me in the past is holding me back and with good reason. I have had a lot of people tell me to take it slow and be careful, so that is what I'm trying to do. Life is so funny with the curve balls that it throws you and you never end up where you think you might.
well, that's about all for now. I am telecommuting today and must get to work so I can play a little bit today! have a good weekend everyone!
