CHECKING IN

well where do i start??? haven't been knitting at all. it's just too warm and chaotic for me to knit right now. my days consist of trying ot coordinate how to get around because I STILL DON'T HAVE A CAR!!!!!!! yes, very frustrating!!!!! i've been spending most of my time at physical therapy and at the gym trying ot get better and get ready for the new york marathon in november. today was my first day back to running in 2.5 months. i had to start with 10 miles to get up to speed in my schedule for new york. it went well on the run. didn't feel my back so much as my usual nagging knee issues and that good ol' blister on my left foot that came right back by mile 5. now, a few hours later i'm starting to feel it in my lower back. definitely not excruciating, but it's clear that i'm going to have to deal with pain all the time with ice and as little anti-inflammatory as posssible. cross your fingers!!!!!

If you...

  1. ...owned a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve? i've thought about this one before. i'd call the restaurant "whateva's cleva" and change the menu every day with all my favorites including, mexican, indian, soul food, veggie friendly, etc.
  2. ...owned a small store, what kind of merchandise would you sell? yarn, duh!!!!!
  3. ...wrote a book, what genre would it be? biographies are my favorite, but i can't imagine that my own would be a top seller. probably a crime story.
  4. ...ran a school, what would you teach? tolerance
  5. ...recorded an album, what kind of music would be on it? oh, again, that's a difficult one. i'm a musical schizophrenic. some punk, some funk, some metal, some rap, and at least one sappy love song
