Ah ha! Y'all thought I didn't make it through the Bay to Breakers?! Amazingly I did. I did better (Bib #7863) than I thought. 109 equates to approxmiately 9 min/mile, giving me 10 1/2 for the 1 mile up hill. I told myself to do it in 1 hr and 20 minutes. Woo!

At the end of the race I felt like I could continue running, 3 miles perhaps. HA! I doubt I could have, but hey, I felt it :).

And surprisingly I don't look (Bib #7863) THAT tired.

I know, I'm dumb, but I am actually considering runnig a 1/2 marathon sometime. HA!

My youngest brother, Nathan (Peanut) was out for a couple weeks. My oldest brother, Anson (oldest bro- no nickname :P)and his wife, Sarah (Mouse) is out for another week. Our entire family (immediate) went to Yosemite last week. It was beautiful! I will be very slowly adding pictures to my new photo blog

I can't believe I had never been to Yosemite before this past week. Yosemite is gorgeous. Due to the late rain/snow and recent warm weather, the waterfalls were gushing and the rivers were high and roaring. I'd like to go there again, backpacking, camping, exploring!

The drive to Yosemite was VERY fun. That is once on Highway 140. Although the drive back wasn't as fun. I'm trying to make Peanut pay half since he was in the car with me. Starving student, Mama's boy, 1500 miles away... yea, no way :P.

So far at the end of the last 2 Critical Thinking classes, my head has hurt. I really hope I can retain all the information that is being squished into this cranium.

Soccer is good... we are in first place, with 3 points higher than the second place team. I'm trying to make myself get atleast one goal per game.

Work is insane. I feel like I am not getting anything done; more and more tasks are getting thrown at me hourly. It is crazy. It feels like I should be working 20 hr days to keep up. Why is it so crazy? Move is STILL going on, lab is COMPLETELY PACKED AND MESSY AND UNORGANIZED AND CHAOTIC AND PACKED AND PACKED, ISO audit is coming up, important projects need to get done, 2 employees left our team, our engineer base(customers) has GROWN. I am trailing behind... far behind. ARGH! This sucks!

I'm still in my r-e-l-a-t-i-o-n-s-h-i-p. VERY surprised? I am.. I think this is like 11 mths or something. Wow.. that is almost double my norm. AND, more importantly I still REALLY like the guy. I really do think he saw a bruja

other news?

Roommate moved out. I am ALONE again :). I quickly re-organized the room. I will now have a bed for company, room for weight lifting and excercising. AND a garage to myself :).

Read a lil, then bed...
