mixtape time....

i've got an unusual collection of songs on this one. i put a few together for my jogs. let me make note that the last two songs i love and my daddy used to make fun of them when they came on the radio. haha! i'd probably do that to my child too if they liked something that bad. so the 5k is saturday. hopefully i'll make it. i call this one "run forrest, run!"

ideas....

so yesterday i had one of those days where i was like, what have i done with the past 27 years of my life, my life is going no where, i'm good for nothing, waaah, waaah, waaah, poor poor pitiful me. whatever. i had the evening to myself cause d was at school all night. i put in my favorite silverchair cd from jr. high and just thought. i thought, what am i passionate about. two things easily, animals and music. i'm a total music junkie and i can easily post stuff about music on my blog. one of my greatest pleasure in life has always been making mixtapes, old school i know, for people. so, i thought, make a mixtape (playlist) for your blog every week. that might be fun. i'll call it mixtape madness, insert evil laugh here. stupid i know, but hey, it makes me laugh. and isn't that what matters? haha. so in honor of my utter peed-offness yesterday, here's my first official mixtape madness. i call it peed-off, the musical.

misery....

yup, the past four days i have been in complete misery. a throat infection is not something anyone wants to have. i can promise that. you can't swollow you can't eat cause you can't swollow, you can't talk cause your throat's swollen. yeah, it stunk. but i feel much much better now. still super weak. and of course i would get that two weeks before the 5k. i've pretty much decided i'm going to have to walk this. oh well. should have known better.

bleck...

you ever feel that way? like just whatever about everything. i do. i've been so down in the dumps the last few days. i hate feeling like this. this whole 5k thing that i thought i could do, yeah right. i was kidding myself thinking i could do this. i can walk it no problem-o, but i dont' want to walk it. i want to run it and prove to myself i can do this. of course, it doesn't help my body feels like it's shutting down on me. i need some protein shakes or something. at one time in my life, i was a really healthy person. not that i'm unhealthy now, just not taking as good of care of myself as i should. well, it's almost 5 and time to go home. maybe i'll feel better after i see crystal bowersox on ai tonight. she's awesome. i heart her. even david loves her too. and he hates idol.

boo...

my disney movie rewards account got blocked cause i put in a few codes i had already used, so boooo! but i called them and they were really nice and getting it fixed for me, so yaaaay! i have tomorrow off for good friday. i'm so glad, but i'll really be glad for next weekend when i don't have to travel! i've been gone every weekend for the last month. that's exhausting. i got my mama and mom-in-law a pretty easter lily to take to them. i'm a good daughter/daughter-in-law. haha. i like to think so at least. i feel much better today than i did yesterday. hopefully, i can keep the positive mood. i must finish up my work now to get ready to head out, so happy easter everyone! have a great day celebrating our risen Saviour!!

bad blogger, bad...

yup, i'm a terrible blogger. i've been gone so much the last few weeks, i just don't even think about it. we went to wdw during david's spring break. that was fun. wish we were going again soon. he's still trying to find a job for next school year. hopefully, he will. it's getting to that point where i'm starting to worry when i know i shouldn't. God has taken care of us so far, how can i doubt Him. i need to have more faith. just when i think i'm growing in faith, i get knocked down and become doubting thomas again.

so onto happier subjects... my first 5k is in a few weeks. i'm doing pretty good with it. some days, like today, i really dread running. but being pre-registered for it is helping with the motivation factor.

work is different right now. i moved into a new office yesterday. and lots of other things are going on. it'll be slowing down soon hopefully.

one step closer....

so i mailed my registration for my first 5k this morning. it was tough writing that check and mailing it. it meant i am actually going to do this. i just hope i can get it in my head all i have to do is finish. not win, just finish. i'm excited and nervous. it is almost two months away, but i'm still nervous i'm going to look stupid my first go round.

i have been meaning to blog about my first vinylmations i got last week. it's my newest obsession. i documented the opening process. good thing i'll be in disney world in two weeks to get lots of them!!
