2 miles with James in the PM. We were so giddy tonight. We kept laughing and horsing around. Actually, James was the one horsing around and I was just laughing. He teases me about my perception of the many "uphill" portions (I think I can tell if it's uphill, even when most scientific instruments probably are not sensitive enough to detect them. I'm amazing that way. *snort*). And I pester him about trying to crush my spirit by tending to run just 2 feet in front of me. It's like he's an old fashioned hubby who wants his wife to walk behind him and only look at the ground and stuff. That's why I have to occasionally attack him on our run, to assert myself...you understand, I'm sure.
You know what? I think I am quite measurablely happier since I started running again. : )))) But then again, really good things keep happening. James just finished his master's thesis tonight. Yea! Only the verbal defense left, which is nothing by comparison. PLUS today I got like 900 square feet of free laminate flooring. It is really light wood, ash, I think...soooo pretty. I am very excited to use it to replace the carpet in the bedrooms. It should make it much nicer for my asthmatic children--fewer allergens, you know. Not to mention how much easier it is to clean up in the middle of the night in case the kids ralph on it. (No one can ever accuse me of not being practical!) But I digress...
My thesis statement for this day is that it was AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWESOME!!! Hope you having a great day too, dear reader. |
