9 Happy Miles

This week has been awful. Skipped the 5 miler on Monday because I could barely walk after the 16 miler on Sunday. Then, work-wise, I thought Tuesday was as bad as it could get, when I told my 6th period class that I was on strike due to poor working conditions, as NOWHERE in my contract does it say I'm allowed to be overtly disrespected. But then today happened. And today was bad because of adults. Sigh. Just a string of days in a row where things haven't gone right. Even the small things seem to go wrong. And no ugly sweater party to look forward to as a distraction :(

But, some positives. Got in a nice 9 mile run today up and around hills, so I feel really good about that. Plus, my leg held up nicely, so I'm totally stoked about that. Just got to get through the 18 miler this weekend... And then the 20 miler the following weekend (ah, Christmas Eve).

And, next week will be better. All-you-can-eat lobster dinner at the U with Big Daws and the Cruise Crew, 2 year anniversary dinner with mah boo, and then Friday at 3:05, the ultimate "Hell Yeah!" celebration. I need this vacation like whoa! Then Christmas, then Tennessee, then Cherry Hill New Years... If I can just make it to this Friday, I might make it to the vacation! And a game of horseshoes.

Why is tomorrow only Thursday?!?!
