i registered for fall classes today, pathophysiology and two nursing related labs. it is exciting and totally anxiety inducing.

this spring has been a nostalgic period for me. i got to see the cure again, the first and only other time being 19 years ago, and they were so good. i saw peter murphy for the second time and he sounded amazing. the lakers and the celtics are in the NBA playoffs. it's no larry bird / magic johnson, but is still kinda cool.

i ran to work this morning. from my place to work is about 13.5, but my marathon training schedule has me doing a 17 mile run this saturday. since i am leaving for the gorge tomorrow and didn't want to have to get up at 4am to run 17 miles, i added some to the work run. the total this morning ended up being 16.75 at a pretty slow pace. i had ( Read more... )

it is april 30th and there was frost on the ground this morning in issaquah. i am sooo tired of the cold and so ready for something warmer.

i woke up this morning to one of the worst noises ever. i went downstairs and asked miss i if she heard the sound and she told me that raccoons were fighting in the street. it was so eerie and disturbing, their shrieking. i thought maybe a dog was injured.

i am going to be a nurse! one of the schools i applied to accepted me into their program. this is kind of huge and exciting for me.

i went down to los angeles this past weekend and ran most of the marathon. the trip, overall, was a good, minus the disastrous race. my father (and mother, but she is in california) was there, which was awesome, since he doesn't live in this country right now. i got to stay with dianne and tim and that's always a good time. this la marathon was my ( Read more... )
