Damn I like to ramble.

I’ve been training like woah for my upcoming races. I think having to intensely focus on something other than wedding plans is really helping me try and stay levelheaded about this whole thing.

Cursing at my shins mid hill sprint helped me get a lot of the stress out.

They mowed the big hill up near the football fields and when I was exhausted I rambled up the side and sat there, staring at the sun behind some big, misty clouds. It was tranquil there, with all the kids sports gone for the day and the lone Korean runner looking small, feet below.

I’ll be back there tomorrow. And the day after. And Saturday morning, with Jeremy.

I have a wonderful newfound appreciation for exercise and eating better. I wish at times my parents hadn’t left healthy activity and eating out from their parenting agenda entirely. I remember my mother trying to tell me how to eat when I was younger but I rarely saw the advice put into practice. This is one thing I will be doing different with my children.

My parents are not going to be happy if I play Lil Wayne at my wedding.

What the heck is the music going to be like? I am so not into rock music, oldies, or the “typical” wedding songs. Watch it wind up being a bunch of 90’s stuff because it’s the only thing we can agree on.

How about Kevin Rudolf’s “I Made It (Cash Money Heroes)?

I look up to the sky
And now the world is mine
I’ve known it all my life
I made it I made it

I used to dream about
The life I’m living now
I know that there’s no doubt
I made it I made it

The rest of the song would make no sense at a wedding but I love those two quatrains.

I am so ghetto.
I did grow up in the ATL, though. 😛
