Guess what inane thing
I did?
I went to the garage
with the idea of checking the dryer and then doing something about
my bike seat. I wanted to angle it just a tad more down in front so
when I ride it the seat isn't stabbing me in the crotch. I shut the
kitchen door behind me so the iguanas wouldn't scuttle out. I did my
stuff, then I went to go back inside and I realized the kitchen
doorknob latch thing must have been pushed in, so instead of just
shutting the door I locked me out!
So I went out the
garage to the yard and walked around the house and rapped at the
bedroom window. Paul, in his dental drugged haze just stares at me
and waves, thinking I am saying hello.
I flap back, trying to
get him to open the window so he can hear what I am saying.
He just stares at my
monkeying about.
I start rattling the
window frame and shouting.
Eventually, he opens
the window and asks me why I am "dancing in the side
yard?"
Yeesh.
Got my NF training
T-shirt in the mail today. It's white with dark green letters.
I also added two new
pages to the pledge
area. One is a page
with the form I mail out so people can see what it's like, the
other is an
HTML version of the form so people can just print it from their
browser and send it in.
I have to work on my
formal letter and when I see the dietitian and dentist in the next
few weeks, I have to remember to take a bunch of forms with me
there. I'm going to see if my bank wants to sponsor me. My parents
are back from vacation, so I have to take them a mess of forms too.
When I go pay the Home Owner's Association for May, I am have to see
if I can drop an ad off for the community newsletter.
Adrith made a little
button for link to our training blog so people can show their suport
that way too:
Me? I thought I was
getting over the nervousness and paranoia but it wasn't so. I was
looking at the course layout
from last year and just about croaked! I joined a mailing list for
people who plan to do the event. I hope it's a nice list. It feels
kinda scary to be in with these impressive runners and me being the
walker baby.
Ok, so run or walk, 26
miles is still pretty tough, but yow! Still feels daunting. I
wonder if after this is all over if I'll be able to jog finally?!
Fear motivates me.
First it was fear of pain and deeper illness. Now it's fear of
making a total ass out of myself. Bed. Have to work out tomorrow
morning.
