I need help making an important decision.... In the next few months, I either want to move or buy a new car. Not move out of Austin of course, just to a new pad. I will try to show the pros and cons of both choices and then would love to hear what you have to say.

I have been a busy Doodle today. Got up early, walked the pup up to the pet store for his weekly treat supply, and then was inspired to clean for some reason. I washed my sheets, ran the vacuum, scrubbed my tile floors on my hands and knees, cleaned the toity and bathtub, dusted, watered and trimmed plants, changed the kitty box, windexed all my...

It must have been a hell of a dream. I woke up pitching a tent. I'm blaming you for that. 
jena:
Do you really think it's a reasonable apology? I am just miserable over this. 
So, I was all proud of myself Monday for doing a really long (for me) run. I went to bed early and woke up Tuesday morning looking forward to having the day off and maybe running again. Had some breakfast, read the news, and got ready to walk the doggie. Then I got back in the bed for a bit, just so tired. Finally took...

hope you're feeling better!
Okay guys, tomorrow I am attempting the longest run I have ever done, wish me luck. In my head I know my body can do it, and I think that is most of the battle. I have also cut way down on the consumption of my beloved Shiner Bock, which I know is a good thing but makes me 
UPDATE I did it!!! I really...

you have the nipples of a goddess! YUM! 
So a friend of mine called last night and said she just met the perfect guy for me. I have to say I pretty much trust her judgement, she knows me and my taste in boys. She said she told him about me and he was dying to meet me, maybe he was drunk....... But, he is supposed to call soon and we might go...

I am so behind in comments and I was away a few days.
What you last said about my writings---I might've thanked you already but I'm doing it again I suppose---inspires me so greatly. I thank you again so much...it makes me want to write so much more.

yeah, but if it doesn't work out or he never calls...as dudes can be so lame when they are drunk..give me a shout...or booty call-228-2074
It's fucking 3:30 in the morning, and I am too stubborn to go to sleep. I have to work in 7 hours, boo fucking hiss. It's really cold and rainy, I have been sitting on the patio wearing two robes, one hooded, one not, to smoke. Not that I should be smoking. I have been giving in to my whims lately, too much so. I...

did you piss off of your customers? did you make someone cry? I'm hitting 2:30am (granted, the following day) and trying to decide if I should just stay up or try to go to sleep. Of course, if I'm gonna stay up, I'd like to have someone keeping me company. Well, cheers...

Doesn't ring an immediate bell, but they might have. I'm going to Portland for the weekend, but would you care for a drink early next week?
I really don't want to be a wet blanket, but I am so fucking down today. I thought going out last night would pick me up, but it did quite the opposite. The girls I went out with are sisters, and they are super cute, and they were wearing cool vintage dresses, just fucking adorable all the way around. The kind of girls that just...

Feeling any better about things today?
walker:
I know how you feeling on most of that. Best way to describe how I feel most of the time. If they were getting all the attention then the guys there must have been blind. I hope you cheer up a bit and you find the answer you are looking for. You are good person and good people should have nothing but the best.
I think I may go out tonight, now that my city is free of all the SXSW bullshit. I am going to happy hour with my aunt and I have the feeling that may start the proverbial ball rolling. One of my friends wants to go to this ghetto ass blues joint on the east side that is so fucking fun, so I think that...

I run Tues/Thurs/Sat/Sun
Tues = shortish/recovery easy, ex: 2 miles
Thurs = a tiny bit longer, and a tiny bit faster/maybe some hills, ex: 3 miles but with a hill thrown in or two sprints between stop lights/phone poles, etc DON'T over-do this run, it's the long one that really counts
Sat = same run as Tues
Sun = long run of the week. Steady tempo, no sprints. ex: 4 miles
Only increase distances every 2 weeks, and every fourth week cut way back on all runs for recovery purposes.
After every long run do cold water/ice soak. Add upper body weights 2 x week and core 3x for stability/endurance. Totally helps endurance.
So your sched wouldbe: Thurs/Sat/Mon/Tues with long run on Tues. Make your Tues my Sun and go from there.
ALso, aren't you about due for a new pair of running shoes?

So there is this guy I work with that I used to be friends with but we haven't hung out for the past 4 years or so. Let's just say he is the type to sniff the seats at the playground, for lack of a better way to put it. He comes up to me the other night at work and says "So, I...

Supposed to hang out with a drunken friend of mine, so I might bring him along and meet you there. Time ya goin?
I am just so fucking tired, and tired of being tired. I have gone running the last three days in a row, and have used muscles I didn't even know I had. That is saying a lot, because I run pretty often. My thighs are straining to bust out of my jeans, but they are firm and purdy. My whole fucking house looks like a...
