« you ask. i answer. | Main | $%&*@! »

lookie what i got!!!!!!

i never check my mail. ever. because i never get anything good. just bills... junk mail.. catalogs of clothing/furniture/life i can't afford. kitchen appliances i want, but... really? would more than likely never have a use for... applications for more credit cards, requests for money from local charities...

i mean i know i'm not the only one, but, come on already ya know?

so... like i said. i never check my mail.

except..... those nights when i do.

tonight was one of those nights.

it was actually more of a damn. i haven't checked my mail in forever and seriously? where is my tax return? maybe its here! lets go check kind of delusional few minutes... but regardless, i checked my mail.

and?

damn IRS sucks. no check yet.

HOWEVER!!!! today. this fourth day of the fifth month... exactly one month before the day i conquer my second marathon...

i got something even better.

i got my Rock'n'Roll Marathon Confirmation Card.

i got my Race Number.

i got chills. and i can't wait.


Rock'n'Roll San Diego...

ready or not..... HERE. I. COME.

(and lookie there... they even know me by name out there!
huh. how 'bout that?!)

Cool beans! Better than the IRS stuff anyway! You will so enjoy your race.

DATE: 7:47 AM
Oh yeah..WOO HOO...It's yo' birfday!!

DATE: 7:00 AM
I'm excited for you!!!

DATE: 10:26 AM
Whoot! Very exciting. I like the personalization on the card.

DATE: 3:54 AM
That sounds like a really fun race! I wish I could find something like that in NC. Even more of a reason to travel to races! I know you'll have a blast. By the way, I have never seen the word "corral" used for humans. I have corraled the goats but never a person. :)


DATE: 4:36 AM
I got mine too! Woohoo! And I think I was just as excited as you on that one. :-)Less than 1 month now!

DATE: 5:44 AM
That seems to be a popular corral. I've got at least two local friends in No. 15. Enjoy the party!

DATE: 6:59 AM
i've got nothing to post today.so, i am totally stealing your idea!!

DATE: 7:12 AM
Funny, I didn't get one of those. (How do you not check your mail? don't you people get bills??) Anyway, I'm amazed that they know you're wicked awesome AND you're a chick extraordinaire!!! :)

DATE: 7:19 AM
You Predicted a Finish Time of: 5:00:00.....I don't think so...better change that to a 4:59:59.


DATE: 8:16 AM
If you're aiming for 5:00:00, you should run the .00000001 sec/mile faster to break the 5 hour mark. It will be worth the effort to be able to refer to the FOUR hour (and 59 minute) marathon. You still get to say four, instead of five.Sixteen days to the Green Bay half, 22 days to the first triathlon, then it's off and training for the Fox Cities in September.Have fun in your final weeks of training.

DATE: 8:16 PM
How exciting!!

DATE: 9:00 PM
Good things happen to those who check their mail. It won't be long now!P.S. In case you didn't notice, your race number is listed. You might want to white that out so people can't get your personal information. I'm sorry to be so paranoid.

DATE: 9:23 PM
me too me too!!! i never, ever check my mail, but did today, and there it was! i don't think i've been this excited about a letter in the mail since...maybe the one that said i was getting into the college i wanted...maybeyou totally stole my post idea too! i even already took pictures of mine!so need to change my start corral though, what was i thinking back in january?


DATE: 9:49 PM
Got mine today also. So excited I just stacked it on top of the microwave with the rest of the mail from the past 2 weeks. But it IS on the top of the stack.

DATE: 10:51 PM
Awesome!!! That is such a great marathon and I'm so impressed that they got your name and they just "got" you!

DATE: 11:50 PM
