I came, I saw, I ran

"...And I ran...I ran so far away..." I just finished running a 5k today! It was the Goblin Gallop in Fairfax, VA, and runners were encouraged to run in costume. I dressed up like a surgeon. I also saw several Batman & Robin duos, Radioactive Man, a pimp daddy, a prisoner, Wonder Woman, a beer can, Napoleon Dynamite - it was fun!

I needed to have a fun thing to do. I worked most of the day yesterday trying to finish up recording Spanish telephone voice prompts for a client. They want all their stuff this week and well, there are well over 5K prompts to record. Right now I am on the numbers. I have to record 100 - 999, two prompts per number - one to be announced as the end of a sentence, and one as the beginning or middle of a sentence. I am only in the 200's right now. Ugh. I REALLY don't want to work today.

Other than that, things are going pretty good. My mom is getting stronger every day. But two of my sisters are going through some tough times with regards to their relationships with their significant others. I know I complain about living a boring life but you know what? Sometimes I am HAPPY that my life and my relationship are so static and constant. I don't think I could take such a huge disruption as my sisters are experiencing. They are getting stronger by going through that, and I am here for support.

"We are family...I got all my sisters and me"

Oh, BTW, I had a WILD dream regarding Bono last week. And I found the video where I first laid eyes on the band - "Gloria" ! I remember seeing this on early MTV (back when they used to play music videos in 1982). Look at how young Larry looks, he looks like he's 15!
