Tomorrow, I have my first olympic triathlon. Naturally, after any sort of race, a blogger writes a recap. But I'll have no time for that, because the real race will begin after the finish line, when I have to make it home in time for the wedding of my good friend from work. We survived our first year of teaching together, which is sort of like surviving war.
The bride-to-be is just to the right of me. |
Look at that sexy blue steel |
If you don't have relevant pictures, you can just use any ones of the people you are talking about. |
So you see what I mean about a blog content overload? Plus, some people have asked about my 5K training, so I really want to write a post about how that works. The sad thing is, once this excess is over, I'll probably go through weeks with nothing interesting to talk about. Especially since my JFK training will just something like "ran, ran more, long run, more running, icing and compression, repeat". Thrilling.
Have you ever had too many exciting life events going on in one weekend?
Have you ever had to refrain from punching someone because they said they "didn't see color"? I know I read it in a blog once and was in awe that someone would actually write something so stupid. I don't even know that I'm totally clear on what it means.
Haha, newsflash: You are white. Eric is black. AMAZING. I NEVER NOTICED.
ReplyDeleteSee you tomorrow! 86F water and all!
Your exciting weekends make mine look so sad and pathetic.
ReplyDeleteI don't see color.
...Eric's black!? I can't believe I never noticed.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you stay awake for all of this activity, even with coffee! Have a great weekend full of excitement!
ReplyDeleteWhat? Eric's black???
ReplyDeleteI can't even think about all the other stuff you mentioned.
My friend is red/green color blind, so he doesn't see red and green like we do. He knows if the traffic light is red or green because red is on top and green is on the bottom. It's fun to mess with him. That really doesn't go with what you were talking about, but I thought I'd mention it. Because being random is fun.
ReplyDeleteGood luck tomorrow, Alyssa! Can't wait to hear how you do!
ReplyDeleteGood luck tomorrow! When I have a bunch of things that all end up on the same weekend like this I make sure I have a list of what all I need for each event so I don't end up leaving something behind or not having it with me when I need it. Not really sure if that helps!
ReplyDeleteI hear that blind people don't see color, but they can hear it.
ReplyDeleteThat's racist.

ReplyDeleteUh, did you say Eric was black? Are you sure? I can't believe I missed that!
I was so excited to comment, "What, Eric is black?" but four people beat me to the punch. Damn.
ReplyDeleteHOW WAS THE RACE? UPDATES?
