marathoner452Yay for college dances with good friends. Yay for getting to wear our old prom dresses to dress up as Arwen/Eowyn/Galadriel from Lord of the Rings and pretending we were princesses, which of course we are anyway. :-) Even though I found out afterwards that Eowyn isn't an elf...oh well. Dancing like we were immortal was fun anyhow and now I need to watch the movies and read the books again and I can't wait for the Winter Formal in February.
And thanks to the dance and chilling afterwards I didn't get to bed until almost 2 am and I didn't get up until almost 11. When was the last time that happened? So it wasn't likely I could bike up to church 7 miles in 15 minutes, and it was raining anyway. So here I am listening to interminable Christian music CDs 'cause I slept in on a Sunday morning, once again. But this time it's NOT because of a race the day before. And I think sleeping in and missing church because you were hanging out with your Christian friends the night before is moderately more excusable than missing church 'cause you were out partying too late the night before. :-)
Okay, back to work. I have so much reading to do on slavery and history research methods and Senegal. And so much writing to do on empathy and oral history and the methodology of my SMP. Nice light stuff-good thing I like a challenge.
And probably a 3-4 mile run in there somewhere. I'm just starting to get to the point where it'll be nice to get back to serious training, but for now it's nice to take it easy. Even the elites take a break from time to time, right?
