like a blister in the cold.
well, all schools around here are closed due to cold. it wasn't long ago that this would be taken by me as a challenge to get outside and do something in it. like, training...whatever that means. the whole 'i'm outside training while maybe my competition is inside slurping hot chocolate' way of thinking. but, now i'm smarter. and not as fast...hmmmm.
anyway, i ran outside on saturday and, after having to thaw my eyes out after the run, decided to hit the trainer yesterday. i'm starting to have treadmill envy...almost enough that if we weren't going to dk in the spring and i wasn't maybe going the grad school i would have grabbed robin by the wrist and taken her to pick one out this weekend. but spending 2k on a treadmill isn't prudent right now.
the other weekend event...i learned a lot about what it is to have a 2 year old. it's a lot like having a 1 year old dog...except oliver doesn't throw tantrums or get crabby when he is tired...he just goes to sleep. they are equals when it comes to messing the house, leaving prints on glass, wrecking a leather couch and putting shit in their mouths. i still say oliver is slightly smarter but a two year old is gaining on him fast. oliver can go outside for more than 30 seconds in the cold. they both wake up way too early. it's nice that ollie doesn't have thumbs. there are a lot more but i'll end it with i'm glad we just have a puppy right now.
the superbowl. kind of a shit game. i liked the commercial with the car robot jumping off a bridge and the beard comb over.
i could use a long weekend in arizona.
