My Holiday Wishlist

My wishlist is pretty simple since it consists of one item: donations to Tufts University in sponsorship of my marathon journey. It's even 100% tax-deductible!

Training is especially challenging right now between the natural obstacles of cold, dark, and snow, and a certain other stressor keeping me up at night. The last couple of weeks have not been great for my progress and I need to turn that around starting today. A month ago I had no doubt that I could do this but right now I'm much less sure. Asking for support when I lack the requisite confidence is terribly difficult, but I have to do it and that's part of the challenge. I can hardly express my gratitude to those who have already helped.


This is me after last week's Jingle Bell Run. Yes, that was the outfit I wore for the race (minus the medal, which we got at the finish line). As is evident by the get-up, I didn't run it for time.

So, anyway, that's my wishlist. Well, that and Dominion: Seaside.

Thanks for the reminder! I forgot last week.

You, sweetie, are beyond awesome, y'know. :]

And I just added a photo to the above post! Which reminds me: how did the pics you took of [livejournal.com profile] amomie666 and me turn out?

Not terribly well, alas, but thanks for reminding me — I’ll mail you the one that you were semi-recognizable in when I get home.

PS — Unlike [livejournal.com profile] oneagain, I have not lost my words. And my words are all “Yum!”

What's funny is that she reacted quite similarly when I first posted it. :) (For your benefit, though it's behind a filter.)
