신의 over and over again

Why is Faith (Shinui 신의) the one drama I can watch over and over again? It's a bit like One Hundred Years of Solitude - after I finished that book I had to go back to the beginning and read it again to get the stuff I'd overlooked. Of course, you can never quite recapture the uncertain mystery of the first time, but Faith gets better and better. Plus, watching Faith on Vikii, I get to turn on the comments, which are mainly lustful and always hilarious. There's nothing like a soft kitty joke to add levity.  BBT anyone? Yes, I have too much time on my hands.

Do people start working at 2pm? I am out of there at 4:30, and no, the process you started 2 minutes ago will not be finished in 10 minutes, especially not when I have 20 other processes to deal with. Anyway, all I mean is I didn't get to run with the running group. I went later on my own, which was just as well - my knee still isn't 100%. I tried to run a flat route, but even so after 2 miles my knee had had enough, cue walking. At least there was no parkway traffic - a gift from God.

Sissy 1 and Sissy 2 banned together against me, so it looks like I'm driving to my parents for the weekend yet again. A birthday and Father's Day. So this is what happens when you live not quite far enough away. I love my family, but I'm not a fan of packing up every weekend. Plus both sissies are home so I will have nowhere to sleep.

The best defense... or an excuse to post LMH as Choi Young in Faith.

i got my ray bans on and i'm feelin hella cool tonight...

I used my vision insurance for an eye exam. Haven't had insurance for 3 years, so I'm going to have many doctor appointments in the near future. My poor eyes have been through the wringer today. And they have to get dilated during next week's follow up exam. Sunglasses time. Meanwhile, I have two different types of contacts to try out.

Sissy tells me some (knock off) Ray Bans are headed my way.

I saw SH this weekend, and it was fun but disappointing. Some couples make me want to puke. I guess you can't go back to how it used to be. I'm glad he seems happy though - for all the ladies out there he's a great catch, even if he has little to no sense of direction. It's one of his few faults, and easy enough to accept. One of my sisters is like that too.  I tried to find a new way home and wound up driving by work on a Saturday - such disappointment.

Ventured out between rainstorms to see the giant snapping turtle that lives in the man made lake at work, but the water was so muddy that we saw nothing. I went with J, who is late middle aged and outgoing and somewhat of a flirt. In a harmless enough way. I bet his wife is awesome.

Tornado warnings. Didn't run. Wouldn't have anyway since I hadn't shaved my legs in too long. But so ready for tomorrow. I want sun and shorts.

All my running clothes come from Marshalls.

Icing works- my knee is fine. Avoiding downhill and sticking to flat or uphill is working. Today we did a short speed workout. I liked the variety. I didn't realize I'd gotten a little bored with running 2 or 3 miles and then heading out. I also realize that I have little to no stamina - but I can work on that.

hoping to run up some hills soon

Watching trashy tv - Say Yes to the Dress and Breaking Amish. SYtD is classic, but BA is stupid. My parents live near the Amish - I'd run into them sometimes in Hibernia, so I don't have any illusions. The show just kind of shows me that reality tv tries really hard to make drama out of everything. I just have a weird fascination because the show takes place like 10 miles from my parents' house. It's not as fascinating as Amish Mafia, which kind of horrified me, but still semi-entertaining.

Facebook can make you feel left out. I'm boycotting for a while.

if it seems like something's weird, then...

So in my experience, if it seems like something weird's going on, then probably something weird's going on. If A is married to B. But Q seems into A, then is AQ a work marriage? Mind you, I've never witnessed AB. But when I first met A and Q I thought they were dating, so I was surprised that AB was an item since way back forever. Overthinking?

Intern season at work - I met a math major. The interns are all so cute. They're younger than Y, who just got her BA.

I've been treating my knee well, but I got ambitious today. I did walk the downhills, but it turns out 3.4 miles was still to far. Walking down a path you've always run is so tedious. On the other hand, all these butterflies kept flying around me and I imagined myself as a Disney princess - the power to command wildlife to do my bidding. Power corrupts.

Just finished icing my leg and the verdict is not the greatest. Let's pray I can walk right tomorrow.

enough ice to heal my knee ...

one of my few

SH called me on Friday! And just when I accepted that he was never going to talk to me again. How is it that some people are just so comfortable? He's definitely one of my few. Family is comfortable b/c you've known each other forever, grown and become different people; but friends are a different story, especially when you've moved around military-brat style like me. Only years together determines if your relationship is one of the few, years fortified not just by good times but by bad ones and drama too. I have no clue if this relationship goes both ways, but I think I'll always feel this way.

Came home again this weekend to continue the game of musical chairs with the cars. It's inspection season.

Loving the beautiful hot days where being outside is such a pleasure. It's delicious - so much better than inside.
