Well, December has come and gone and I suspect January will be over before I can turn around. The past few weeks/months have been quite busy for me and at this point, I'm pretty much booked through...well, for a while.
I spent several weekends going back and forth from Texas to Monroe, then I did end up making a quick trip to Chattanooga to ring in the new year with Oriel and Company. I spend the first week of every January being exhausted, and 2007 was no exception. It was well worth it and even though I say I'm sick of parties, just give me a week or two and I'll be ready to go again.
This coming weekend is the big marathon. I can't say I'm actually looking forward to it, but I'm sure it will be an interesting experience, if I live to tell about it. Between illness, injuries, traveling, and crazy weather, our training has not been all that it should have been. We might need a calender rather than a clock to mark our finish, but Finish, I will. And when I say "finish" I mean: I have no desire to run again for quite some time. Anything but running.
Speaking of interesting experiences that I hope I live to tell about: the trip to Thailand is seeming more realistic as the weeks pass. I'm getting more excited and more nervous about it every day. As with many big events in life, I'm dreading all the things that have to be done in preparation, I'm curious about what it will actually be like, and I wish the time would just get here, so I can plan the next part of my life.
I started the year off thinking, "This is going to be the best year ever." After one week, I've already decreased my expectations, but I do intend to make the most of it.
I think a road trip to MS this weekend is in the works. Gotta root you on!
