Blogger is messing up my posts!!! It won't let me compose a post in Normal mode...just HTML. Everything is all weird...very frustrating.
I went to help and they are supposed to be fixing the problem. I guess that I will edit it whenever it gets fixed.
BOO, Blogger!
Update: I think it was just me. I clicked something and now it's fixed...sorry, Blogger. You aren't stupid.

The Good and The Bad
Today has been both good and bad...
GOOD: I FINALLY found a theoretical perspective for my research. WOOHOO!!! This may not be that exciting to most...but has totally made my whole week!!! I couldn't have found it without Damian (who happens to be the smartest person that I know...REALLY!!!) He has been so patient with me through the whole process so far...he talks everything out with me (even if he has absolutely no interest in my topic). I feel bad because whenever he wants to talk about philosophy...I go deaf and immediately fall asleep (I can be a sucky wife sometimes).
BAD: I only have three sentences done...and I have to have a whole chapter done by Friday.
GOOD: Damian and I went to the OB/GYN to talk about my fibroids (not so exciting) and babies (very exciting!!!!) Nope, not pregnant...not even trying...but we would like to start in a year or so...so we just had a little preliminary talk. It was good. Very grown up.
BAD: We also went to the post office to get Damian's passport and got DENIED! No appointments for like 2-3 weeks. We're going to have go to the passport agency downtown...BOO!
GOOD: Carson got his hair done!
BAD: I didn't:(
Here's a before pic of Carson-dog.
Okay...that's it for now. Hope everyone has a good night!!!

Running is hard...Walking is Easy
I hate that commercial! I don't know why it bugs me so much.
Anyway, I've discovered walking again and I think that I've found love.
Let me back up, I've ALWAYS had a love/hate relationship with running. I want to be a runner so badly. I want to run outside...I want to love all of the elements...I want to increase my speed and blog about all of my wonderful racing adventures. I really want to...I really do. I so enjoy reading everyone else's running blogs and I am inspired and envious of everyone who gets out there, iPod in tow...Garmin in hand....and ready to run for their lives. I really, really, really, really want to do that.
My last blog was called "Becoming That Girl"...cause that is the girl that I wanted to be. But after awhile, I was tired of trying to be someone that I'm not. And I didn't want a whole blog dedicated to not being myself. Hence the change to "Just Me."
Anyway, I digress...I now consider myself someone who runs. 3-4 miles is usually my breaking point...and it is usually on the treadmill (not outside)...but I consider it an accomplishment none the less.
So, I say all of that to say that lately I've been walking on the treadmill (on an incline) and I've been getting a REALLY good workout. I've been doing about 4 miles...at 15:00 pace...with varying inclines. And it is actually enjoyable. Well, maybe enjoyable is a little strong...but I'm not miserable doing it...and I've been gladly going upstairs to the treadmill to get my walk on.
I vowed to finish up C210K...but I'm not sure if it's gonna happen. I'm going to mix it up between running and walking...and some days I may even run AND walk. It's good to mix up your work out and after 11 weeks of C210K, I'm ready to mix it up!!!
SN: I was supposed to start my yoga regimen today until I realized it was Memorial Day and they changed their schedule. Oh well! It actually worked at better because I am in dissertation hell and I should be writing rather than spending 90 minutes in a heated room. But I will definitely be there on Wednesday!!!:) So excited!
