Randomness


What is with people posting pictures on the internet of themselves kissing their significant other? I mean it's great if you're in love and everything, but it makes us uncomfortable in person, do you think we want to voluntarily look at it on the internet? Does anybody else want to vomit when you see a self-portrait, of which the camera captures all of their lips, part of their faces, and is at a funny angle being held out at arms length by one of the participators in the kissing going on? Maybe I'm the only one. I'm not sure.

On another note, three days until my man gets here! Yay! (Does anyone want to vomit now?)

I signed up for a half-marathon tonight. I'm excited about that. I like the half distance. It's just about right to feel like you have accomplished something, but yet you can still have that competitive edge and try to take out some of the competitors. You don't have to pace as much I suppose this means. If I were really good, I could be competitive at the marathon distance, or someday maybe Ironman distance. For now, I'm satisfied finishing those distances and leaving the competitive edge for the shorter ones.

I have 50 meter swimming time trials in the morning. This makes me nervous. It makes me want to puke...for real. Not just because I think it's disgusting like the self-portrait make-out picture. Granted, it's 50 meters. It's not likely that I will puke, I just want to do good. And by doing good, I mean I want to get the fastest time in the class. Is that too competitive? Out of the girls I think I have a fighting chance. I think there are four of us up there that have a fighting chance. Anna, (remember her trigrl82), just might beat me. Yes, she has been swimming better than me in the last few weeks. We'll see how it goes. I could miss the wall on my kick turn and have a completely horrible time. I've done that before. I guess you can't predict everything.

I recently remembered that I have a quiz in the morning. Time to break out the notes on diabetes, dyslipidemia, and metabolic abnormalities. Here we go...

we are so friends. you may count me in as one of those people who wants to gag at that sort of photo. gross. good for you, now please spare the rest of us unfortunate souls who must look at your conjoined faces from such an awkward angle. eeek!

have you always been this competitive? hahaha. look who's talking, i was swimming next to someone today who's over a foot taller than me and i was trying to make sure he wasn't beating me. i need help... and clearly i lost. :( you can do it! just get inside her head somehow. she does always seem very focused. it's creepy really... coming from a person who has seen every race photo of myself where i look half crazed/ half angry. oh well.. good luck! :)
