So apparently it's possible to be addicted to ventriloquism...?

Who are these people?

In other news:

1. I started my running clinic last night in preparation for ATB. Now, ordinarily I'd say I was a pretty confident runner--far from the head of the pack, but I hold my own. Until last night.

I was literally the ONLY PERSON in a room of 60+ that hadn't run the complete race before, and when they posed the question to the group and I, the lone reed in the wilderness, raised my hand in the back of the room, I swear the record stopped and crickets were audible.

The cheese stands alone, I guess...

So I rallied, and while stuffing down a raging cold, readied myself for my first interval experience. And... I felt about as fast as this guy.

Me hopes I leave my grumpy pants at home on Thursday...

2. I called Lil'C "my partner" a few weeks ago--"come on, partner, lets go!"--and now he calls me his par'ner...

I heart this.

3. Are the holidays seriously over?
