Marathon anyone?
So today was pretty ok. I went to class like usual. Came home and ate myself some lunch (tuna and crackers for your information). I left while the sun was out to take some photos and the sun left me before I got to my location. I took my photos for my fundamentals of design class and headed to walmart to get 'em printed off. Bought a few groceries while I was there. Worked out for a couple hours. AMAZING! Half hour on a treadmill, half hour on an eliptical, and weight lifting. Jen has this fabulous idea to run some marathons! I'm scared out of my mind, but I think it's going to be fun. Something to work toward.
I've been thinking about dad a lot lately. Ok, I guess that's no different from the past 4 months. Yesterday was 4 months to the day. There is so much I want to tell him, so much I'm excited about right now and I know he'd love to hear about it. I would give anything to walk downstairs and have him stop me to listen to a song off of his most recent cd purchase. He always seemed to keep me updated with things in the news and such. I miss listening to him talk about his plans for the day. It would usually consist of, well with this good weather, taking the dogs for a walk when he gets home from work. Probably watch some TV and then get on the treadmill and blast whatever music fit. Maybe he'd bake some cookies and make some phone calls. Watch more TV. Of course cook some off the wall dinner. He'd always come upstairs right at 8 pm to get a snack. Go to bed at 9. You know what the most amazing thing about him was? He was ok with just being home, with just being him, with just everyday stuff. He didn't need to travel, he didn't need to excel in anything or be the greatest. I never realized that until it was brought to my attention. I was always so annoyed by the fact that he just stayed home all the time. He was just so neat. And you NEVER get it until it's too late. I hate that about life. Who the hell dies at 51 anyway? That's the lamest thing I've ever heard of.
In conclusion, I am determined to live life to the fullest and keep my eyes open. I want to be greatful for all I have and all I am able to do.
I just want to call him sometimes and I hate that I can't.
anyway, blah blah blah. complain sad complain sad.
I'm going to enter some photos in some art show I think. I'm not sure how it works. I'm going to do it though. Yay for that right?
I'm going to enjoy a movie and study for my AP exam.
