when you wake up feeling old...

i haven't much felt like an athlete lately, much less a racer. the holidays have sucked me (and my low self control) into the vortex that is eat, drink and be merry. funny how the eat and drink can steal away from the merry though, wouldn't you agree? i had an idea that i would bottom out this week but it wasn't supposed to be until the end of the week. anyway, i must ski tonight hung over or not.

i have a dentist appointment today. i'm not proud of the fact that i haven't seen one lately, and i don't intend on divulging just how long it has been. some of it has been circumstance, some of it laziness and, frankly, a big part of it is me being an anti-dentite. but i decided to bite the pain bullet and schedule an appointment...to fix my missing filling and all the 8,000 other problems they will probably find. should be fun. big fun.

by 6:45 this morning there were two people near me in the office eating smack style at the computers. lovely.

i wonder what pat is up to these days?
