I'm cool! what a relief!

wow sven thanks for that comment, it made my day. and made up for the utter disappointment i had when i read those lies about me snowboarding for free...GRR....by the way, i REALLY want to do some backcountry boarding this weekend...whaddya think?
Okay back to today: twas a good day spent scrubbing a starnger's floors for money. Just another sucky job on my way to success i suppose. I conciously decided NOT to go running today, simple because i didnt FEEl like it. so there. I'm not THAT wrapped up in physical accomplishments, for all you random viewers out there who think i am too self involved..(ie heather who i dont know OR like...) and to prove it, i went to barnes and noble today to read. i love to read. Of course, i read these two books on the Ironman which were fascinating- they were motivating yet terrifying at the same time. I mean, wow do I really have the committment level and mental toughness to do it? i Know i do, i just have to make the decision. I read a cool quote today that went something like this:
A goal wihout a plan is just a wish.
Anyways i thought it made a good point. Moving on, I read Becky the Polar Express- a book that she missed out on during childhood while i was busing memorizing every word and every detail on each page. I loved that book- my mom read it to us every year at christmas and we would spend FOREVER analyzing each page. Oneof those books that you thought had alot to it and when you go back and read it later you realize its a lot simpler than you remember. Anyways that was a good time. and Becky bought me a hazelnut steamer for Starbucks- LOVE those. what a pal. tomorrow hopefully will work out- I want to bike and run with angela in the morning and then make breakfast together...mmmm i hope THAT works out! then do errands, maybe work a bit, and go to the New Zealand meeting at 4-6 and then its up to IDAHO!!! AHHH i cant wait. theres no place like it.

Marry-- i'm feelin' a bit sheepish (baaa) about our bike/run today. I guess we really could have done more. I'm really going to miss you when you're in Omaha. . . it's so fun to have you here!
