Can you guys believe it's almost been 10 days since I started all this? Seems unreal. It feels like so much more time has gone past. I keep thinking that one day I'm going to wake up and be a pro runner. It's hard to think that I still have so much ahead of me. I am enjoying the journey though. I'm enjoying the challenge.
So Happy Valentines day! You know what bothers me? When people get frustrated with Valentines because it's some sort of commercial holiday. Um, so is Christmas. And Halloween. And, oh I don't know, Easter! It's all just silly fun! Granted, I don't care for Santa, or the Easter bunny, (I LOVE Halloween), but Valentines isn't just about love anymore. It's become this day where all those who are single hate those who are not (I'm generalizing but It's mostly true). I'm not going to lie and say I haven't done that, but at the same time, let's remember that Valentines isn't all about getting it on, and flowers, and chocolates, blah, blah, blah. Those things are nice, and you know I love me some flowers. Speaking of which:
Pretty sweet, huh? I thought so. But I'm not all buttsore because Ryan hasn't done it the other 364 days of the year. So what if he did it only on Valentines. We still say we love each other every day. Anyway, I just hate that the comments on facebook are so polarized. It's either a comment about how much valentines day is ruining someone's life or a comment dripping in absolute repulsive cuteness. If you need some love in the club today, just remember that Valentines isn't just about one relationship. It's about families, and friends, and the people that have changed your life for the better. So there you go. I love you guys. LOVE. VALENTINES!
Oh, so this was part of Ryans V-Day gift. I thought you guys would get a kick out of them:
I laughed for like an hour.
Also here's are sorry half eaten Valentines Cake I made. Yeah, we're white trash:
Tonight we got a pizza for our super romantic dinner and then Ryan had to go to stupid mutual. So I'm wearing sweats and I'm not gonna lie, I'm most likely going to play video games after I finish this post. That's right. I'm a 13 year old boy.
Oh yeah, Yoga was great this morning. In fact it was kind of easy. I'm thinking I need a harder Yoga video. Suggestions? Anyone? Bueller? Also, I got a new Yoga mat and I absolutely LOVE IT! It's purple and it makes these temporary indents where your feet have been. I don't know why, but it's fascinating. It makes Yoga exciting!
Running day tomorrow! Pray for me! I'm feeling good! I'm also trying not to think about the whole 4:30 AM - 5:00 AM thing. I love denial. Here's to hoping the pizza doesn't slow me down tomorrow!
This post made my day!! I totally agree about the feelings people have on Valentine's.. So what if it's a sappy holiday. Still fun. and you are right. It's totally about everyone in your life who is special. So single people need to just stop whining. Just because you aren't married doesn't mean you don't have people who love you. ok. rant, over.
ReplyDeleteYay for running! just remember, the more you do it, the easier it becomes. Slowly, but surely, it will start to get easier. persistance is key. :) Proud of you!
