I totally spaced the fact that today is my mother's 54th birthday... even after I had a conversation with her on my way to work. Yeah for florists who deliver.

Seriously, it's been a month since I posted? Seriously? Wow...

Things have been hectic. I keep a very regular schedule and getting up, going to work, coming home, feeding the cat, and then generally going out to meet up with someone for drinks or dinner or something. I'm enjoying it. Some of my favorite people come see me on my side of the river, and I've discovered new favorite people as well.

My latest obsession is running. Working for the Army, I get paid to work out every morning. I definitely take advantage of that. But lately I've been wanting to do more running. It's sick. So I decided that I was going to run from the boys' house (SE 38th and Hawthorne) to my house (SW16th and Morrison). Just over 3.8 miles, I believe. So last night, Philip and I went to dinner, then I changed into running clothes and off I went.

40 minutes. Flat. I didn't stop running once, and if I was stuck and an intersection, I ran in place. I was so proud of myself. I will be doing this more frequently. Now I just need to get back up to speed with an ab workout, and I'll be set for summer...

On a completely different note: I've started something. I'm not sure if it's good or bad, but I've started it. For the first time in my life, rather than over-analyzing the pros and the cons and the what-ifs, I just dove right in. I'm loving it. It's not nothing but it's not something. It's a thing.

All I know is that I'm not going to stop this thing. I can't think of a time when I felt more at ease. I'm going to enjoy this for as much of and as long as I can. Debbie not playing it safe; this is new. I like it.


always.....
