It's My Party

Well, I'm officially one year closer to the big 3-0. It stinks that my birthday's on a Monday and I have class tonight, but I had a great weekend of celebrating with my hubby, my parents, and our TWO kitties. Saturday night was fun night out in NoLibs with Michael. Then we went back there for brunch with my parents on Sunday. The phermone-blocker we got for the cats seriously made a difference, and we spent most of yesterday with both of them coexisting on the couch with us! They still nip at each other every now and then, but it's a vast improvement.

My parents got me so many presents, and they got us nice anniversary gifts as well! I got a new MP3 player, which made a huge difference on my 4-mile run this morning. I had a great run at a 9:17/mile average. I'm a tiny bit sore from Saturday's run, but not too bad. It was a cool morning and so nice to have that "me" time to start my birthday.

Thanks to everyone for all of their birthday wishes and donations! I'm at 62% of my goal!! YES!!!

Happy birthday and great job! Wow, 62%!

Be careful with the music. I DEFINITELY run differently depending on the music. If I play the wrong stuff, I have to back down consciously to keep from exhausting myself. :-)
