Had to work 9-9 today so I jumped on the trainer for a quick 30min before work knowing I'd be dead when I got home from work

Had a crappy day at work so I went to the store and bought oysters and a trout for dinner, went home and baked the fish with some herbs and broiled the oysters with a wine sauce.  Made me feel a little better.  Fell asleep on the couch and woke up at 10 to run.  Felt like crap and ran 3 miles on the treadmill (7:50 overall pace). Blech, tired with a cold

 Yesterday was our Department's Christmas party.  They also give out awards for outstanding grad student and outstanding TA.  I manged to win outstanding TA for an undergrad class I helped with.  I did pretty much what was expected of me with a couple little extra things thrown in so I did not expect to win.  It was pretty exciting and totally unexpected.  The teacher of the class wrote some pretty nice things about me!  Sometimes these things can turn into a popularity contest which I definitely would not win, so yea me!  My friend also won the outstanding grad student award so we cleaned up!.  Sadly, our assistant dean/professor is leaving to go be dean at another school.  Aside from my boss, she was the biggest influence of me going into research so she'll be missed.

Rode the rollers for 30 minutes after taking a nap tonight.  Felt like absolute junk, it's either a cold or SAD.

We are going back to Albany tomorrow afternoon for Xmas so i need to get a workout in before we leave.  On a good note, I've lost more weight this week

Home for the holidays and did a nice 5ish mile run in the morning at an easy pace with ralphie.  Not used to the hills but it was ok and I miss running at home on these roads.  Ralphie slipped his coller when a group of 10 dogs charged their fence and scared him.  Luckily he did not get hit and I got his coller back on but it took 5 years off my life.  It was a semi-busy road with 45mph traffic, ugh, stressful.
