Valentine's Day and then some...



THIS (plus some candy...that I have already consumed) is what came to school for me on Valentine's day. I can't begin to tell you how excited I was. Of course no one got to see them because it was toward the end of the day...but that's ok...because I told EVERYONE who would listen (lol).

Ok, enough of the mushy stuff...

The indoor season is finally coming to a close...I swear it feels like my girls have been running for FOREVER! We're on meet number 7 I believe and it's starting to show in their running. Hell I'm even tired because I'm used to a 4 meet indoor season. I hear that indoor is longer here because of the weather for outdoor is usually pretty sucky so the outdoor season is considerably shorter.

Once again I've become a grade A procrastinator. Today we had another random holiday and of course I did nothing productive in the school area. Instead I slept...and played the domestic role for the afternoon (cooked, cleaned, did laundry, etc). Sigh...yeah I'll pay for it next week when my two papers are due and I'm still trying to catch up on my sleep from our trip to Maine this weekend...oh well.

For about 4 days we had a glimpse of warm (50 degrees...New England warm) weather and I was ecstatic. And then today about lunch time it starts to snow again. I'm like are you freakin' kidding...this is so not ok. All I want to do is go for a jog in a sports bra and tights...That way I can get some sun and exercise all at the same time.

I think I'm coming out of my mini-depression. I still get a little snappy with people from time to time but I learning how to make that go away. I've met some very interesting and distinguished students and faculty of color over the past week. I'm always so caged up in the gym that I never even realized that there is world on the other side of campus. It's been nice to just get away. I still feel like I have a lot going on right now...but I'm managing...just ready for Spring Break now!

***This week I'm grateful for:
-my sis Mem
-Felicia's apartment (and Felicia as well)
-Val's post card
-being one of Toy's angels :-)
-my fam (I got like 8 phone calls in one week)
-HIM (for making this the BEST valentine's day WEEK ever)
