“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain

in a search for Fage Yogurt substitutes up here in Canada (Other than Liberty), I came across a neat blog. I LOVED this flow chart!
On Monday, I got back from a wonderful trip to Jamaica and Toronto with Haines and my friend Sandra. It was a fantastic time away, and so refreshing. Maybe more on that later... for now, a few pics. I came back, and it hit me. I'm officially done Mat leave. I no longer get government assistance/EI. I am back on the sign-in sheet at work. I have just over a month before my first shift again. Wow! I have a few things happening this week, with my in-laws in town, a party to throw, and advent starting. On Monday, I invited a few friends of mine to Vancouver to kick off advent & one of them, who I haven't been able to see for quite a while, was unable to attend. Something emotional triggered in me, and I suddenly worried that I had my first "Friend Fatality." You know, that thing that happens when someone who has never been a parent, becomes a parent? That shift in social relationships that acc...
so, let's just start with a comment that I think this sport is hilarious . the things we do (and, read on, you will get some in this report) are ridiculous. Not only because we think that waking up at 4:30 am to go and get your exercise on for 5+ hours straight is fun, but we do things that in normal society would be considered completely inappropriate and people would wonder if you need a psych consult. i find it hilarious the pre-race rituals we have. the need to wear a "i've done an ironman" shirt to race check-in, rather than normal street clothes. the carting around of a gallon water bottle day before a race. the food we eat, and the abnormal sleep schedules we keep. hilarious. pre-race prep was pretty normal. I got to syracuse at about 6pm on friday, and meet Kelly Covert , her husband (also kelly covert!) and boys Noah and Ryan. It was a fantastic place to stay, and we indeed, talked! it was great :) after a solid sleep on friday night, I was able t...
so, i guess the way to start this to to say: "well, it turns out that the boy i like, is actually the boy i love." post race was spent in the hotel, lounging while watching the Canucks game (right... ice hockey while in Hawaii!), and eating a ginormous meal for dinner. The plan was to go to the Mauna Kea Observatory , but the drive up and back would take at least 4 hours, and it would (obviously) be at night. Not necessarily the best idea for the evening/night after a 1/2 ironman! so, we woke up on sunday after a lovely (surprizingly, for being in the same room as two boys who really like to snore) sleep, and went out for some coffee. Then, of course went for second breakfast... at the buffet. and, subsequently stuffed ourselves again. then, it was a little lagoon lounging at the hotel, and off for the afternoon activities! I have added pictures, but, I thought that i would leave the report up to the boy. 'Cause it was all him. ...
