Sorry to disappoint Beth, I will not be joining your brood any time soon (see previous post), because I have once again been revitalized. Today, I did two miles of a run/walk. My ribs are feeling mostly healed and I will not be defeated.
Last night in class, we talked about sabotage, and sometimes I feel like I sabotage myself, by too often taking the easy way out, being content with mediocrity when I am capable of greatness. And I am capable of greatness. Twas the poet, actually he's a senator now, who said, "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggonit, people like me." So, even though I'm kind of a fatty, and even though I am not running's biggest fan, and even though injuries have put me behind schedule, I am not quitting. I am making P.F. Chang, his stupid race, and by extension most of east Asia, my beeotch.
Kim Jong Il, Godzilla, Hu Jin Tao, Lucy Liu, Lisa Ling, Charlie Chan, Hello Kitty, Collins Elementary 92-96, The Crying Indian*, Connie Chung, The Panda Express Panda, Chinese Hutchins, You're all on my list. Watch out.
*No, he's not asian, but he's not an Indian either, so whattayagonnado?
Hey Fletch, best advice an old woman and avid swimmer like me can give...SWIM. It is considered to be the very best exercise in the world,uses every muscle in the body, no impact (Especially while healing other injuries) and it very therapeutic for the mind.) Try it, you just might like it and end up being 1/3 ready for the next triathlon to boot!
