the darkening of the light
Where did my voice go? A long time ago, whenever I couldn't speak how I felt aloud, I was nonetheless able to write down on paper. Poetry, diary entries, anything written... it was one of the few things in my life that actually came easy to me - and thank heavens. Most of the time I walk around with a chest so full of sorrow and self-pity I'd ( Read more... ) -
The Myrtle Beach Marathon
Okay, so I guess it took longer than expected to get around to writing this. My legs are mostly healed and I can walk without looking like I've been reamed with a pine cone again. A bit late but no less exciting, here is my account of my Myrtle Beach Marathon experience ( Read more... ) -

Well, I ran the Myrtle Beach Marathon on Saturday in 3 hours 54 minutes and 31 seconds.
A more detailed account of this is in order as soon as I finish this giant stack of grading.
I wanna do another one (marathon, that is... not giant stack of grading) -

Seeing as I was running on a dirt trail seemingly nowhere near a nest of any kind, I am highly offended by the bold little buggers that landed, unprovoked to my knowledge, on my arms and stung me repeatedly!

Wow... my legs are surprisingly mobile this morning. I half expected to need crutches and a handicap parking pass today. I guess I'm not quite as out of shape as I thought ( Read more... ) -

How in the hell did it get to be 2:30 in the morning so quickly?!
I feel like I just got home and now I'm going to be wrecked for tomorrow.
Grrrr! -
Autumn
When I woke up this morning after a post 5K sleep I felt great. I got dressed and went to Southpoint mall to get a sleeve for my new laptop. On Sundays nothing opens before noon so I bought a coffee and wandered around the vaguely Irvine Spectrumesque structure(s), feeling eerily out of place in my current duds (my mother still insists on dressing ( Read more... ) -
Buried in grading...
I can't believe how little I have gotten done today. Granted, I taught lab for 4 hours straight, fixed some orders for NSRG, reported some kinks in Raj's web labs software and I'm about to leave for cross country practice... HOWEVER, none of this brings me any closer to being done with the 3 labs and 2 quantum homework sets I have to have finished ( Read more... )
