I realized tonight that I may be in for a life of mediocrity at the rate I’m going. I played in my office poker game tonight and was pretty pleased that I didn’t suck. And I was telling someone today about the marathon I did a few years back, and how glad I was simply to finish. “I didn’t suck” and “at least I finished” — I feel like I can do better than that!
I’m exhausted tonight. I woke up a little before 6 a.m. with an upset stomach. I figured I would just stay up and let my stomach settle before hitting the treadmill for my usual 3-mile Tuesday morning run. Well, my stomach never quite settled (in fact, it still feels a little gloopy) and I ended up just staying awake instead. So I’m planning to hit the sack in a bit so I can get up early tomorrow morning to run. I really hope my tummy feels better by then! If it doesn’t, I’ll have to somehow fit 15 miles in by Sunday…5 miles each on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday? Yeesh…I’d rather not do it that way, so hopefully I’ll be back to normal tomorrow. I think I’m actually starting to sound like one of those people…”I didn’t get my run in this morning, and I just feel weird!”
Please smack me if I start talking about PRs — heck, I’d be giving mediocrity the bird if I was trying to set any personal records, right?
I will admit to considering a subscription to Runners World, though. So if you want to encourage my break from mediocrity, feel free to spoil me.
So if I’m a good girl and I keep running, can I have the guy on the cover? Please??
Oh…I’m not sure how I feel about the fact that someone visited my blog today after apparently searching for “teeny anal.” Now you’re wondering where in my blog I have mentioned such unmentionables, right? Well, there’s an old post where I told of getting a junior Frosty at Wendy’s (the cups are teeny) and I later shared that I took Kona to Petsmart to get her anal glands expressed.
Pervs.
Ohmigosh, I’m totally rambling again! I think I’m delirious. And I totally forgot that I have a dentist appointment in the morning…crap. I’m so looking forward to the rays of sunshine that are dental hygienists…NOT.
On that note, g’night!
I live in Atlanta, Georgia, and work as a 
well, i look to benchmark against myself and the i recognize that my progress isn’t mediocre but really extraordinary. i also have come to the realization that only a few people are really detined to be ‘great’ at big stuff that people notice, and thats okay, although i think we all have the potential do be great at something, even if it isn’t the sort of thing that is going to land us on the cover of some magazine.
That’s not what he said.
