This was on the wall at the restaurant tonight:


Training Journal – 2/29/12:

  • Current plan: 12K Training
  • Today’s session: 4 Mile Easy Run
  • Comments: Same as yesterday: Did a 6.2 instead – though a tempo run vs. a negative split test.  On the outbound leg of the out-and-back, I ran up on a skunk – which resulted in a 100 yard dash being incorporated into the tempo run!

My Valentine

Nigh a score and seven years ago thou captivated my heart

And lo, I’ve been thine e’er since

Many roads we’ve traveled- most joyous, some with tribulation:

Always hand in hand,
Sometimes thou leaning,
Sometimes me,
Sometimes both.

Though at the time, “remove the trial” I wished, I prayed
In hindsight, our love was strengthened e’en more
Our bond, made tighter
Our Reliance, e’en firmer

See, my love, many are the things I cherish about thee:

Thy smile encourages and slays me still
The sound of thy laughter tames and tickles
Thy care and concern doth comfort my soul
The genuineness of thy character doth inspire me
Thy true love and friendship – ah, priceless treasures they are!
– – –
Alas, an endless list I easily could pen…
…and a lifetime foreseen to fathom, to appreciate them all!

Nigh a score and seven years ago thou captivated my heart

And lo, I’ve been thine e’er since,
And wilt e’ermore!

  • Current plan: 10K Training
  • Today’s session: 3 mile easy run
  • Comments: Nice morning for a run. I lost my pinky toenail last night – a casualty of a twisted, poser sport sock worn on a 13.1 a few weeks ago.   I wondered if it would bug me this morning – no issues (thank goodness!)

Yep Yep

Twenty-five years ago, I married my best friend…what a wonderful adventure we started and continue each blissful day!

We’re not experts, but learn something new each day of the journey – about each other, relying on God, and so much more.

Karen, I love you so much!

A little over a week ago, I linked a story about a man who has kept his arm raised for 38 years…check this out.

How far would you be willing to go if a person you trusted or put your faith in told you to do or not do something?

Ahhh…

For my Valentine!

I just wanna hold your hand
Hang on every word you say
Let’s write a song for us
And sing until we’re old and grey!

Yesterday, the post prompt on Plinky.com was:

Write a haiku about something that drives you nuts.

Her
By Dennis Arriaga

A late-eighties start
All thoughts eclipsed by this one:
I’m crazy for her!

Like most, I take the standard touristy-type photos when I go somewhere.  I think it’s required somewhere – we wouldn’t be good tourists if we didn’t.  That said, I also tend to snap photos of artsy/abstract things, stuff that amuses me, or prompts me to think or appreciate.  (Well, at least I try.)

I was looking through some of the photos I snapped while we were in Monterey last weekend and noticed one from Sunday evening (taken about 9pm):

To most, this photo would seem odd, weird, or a waste of a shot.  To me, it captured a moment to which I could assign a single word to:
