At Last.... (to the tune of Etta James singing...)



HOORAY!! The race is over, AT LAST! Aside from stumbling out of bed this morning on legs that don't seem to want to work, I feel great! The race went remarkably well, and I think Becky and I only ran out of things to talk about for about 3 minutes! Not to get mushy, but there's no way in hell I would have done this without her (granted she was harassing me every step of the way, but...). She's been a great coach and, believe it or not, it's brought us even closer (which even I didn't know was possible). Love you, Beck!
After the race, (and unfortunately, no nap in the afternoon :( we all went to watch the annual Harbor Parade of Boats. It was a bit disappointing this year- seemed like alot less boats than years past, but oh well, it was still a good time with our best of friends! We went and grabbed a drink and some nibbles at a new restaurant downtown called The Buccaneer. A friend of our family just opened it last Monday. The food was great, the drinks even better (try a Crazy Arnold!!) and the place has all kinds of pirate memorabilia all over it. And on top of that, the prices aren't half bad for a downtown restaurant! I highly recommend it :)
Two more weeks of school left...hard to believe that as of December 18th it will all be over. I can't quite seem to get my head around it. Oh well, it will sink in eventually. And, as Eric continues to remind me, FINALLY I'll be bringing home the bacon!
