well, i'm alive

i haven't even checked my email that much, if that tells you something. i got whatever, feeling like a brick got stuck up my nose and is sitting on my forehead, type of illness t had last week. so, i've been holed up in my cozy bed, while he has been in WY working away.

some of the most extraordinary things happened this past week. well, one. i've never had anyone that i've known not be trying to have a baby and then find out that they were...and then have them be o.k. with that. we sat there the night that she was getting ready to take the tests and bantered back and forth about how it so was NOT the case and how everyone (her sister) was making a deal about it, when clearly, she was obviously NOT. oops, she is.

i'm so happy for her and her guy, i can't even express. they are seriously the people that can handle something unexpected like this and turn it into something that seemed like it had been planned for years.

On another front, the running is still happening. i'm still planning on doing the marathon, despite my setback a couple weeks ago. i've been running this week, which may seem counterintuitive considering my cold, but i truly feel that this makes people heal faster.

i'm going to l.a. in april sometime to see my friend from 3rd grade. she is having a baby and i was told that i better come becuase "i'm not going to have time for you later". hmmm...
