Well, a few days ago, I signed up for a 5K my district is doing on May 5. Being that I've been running a lot in recent weeks, I figured 3.1 miles would be doable. I ate the $22.50 registration fee (hey, at least I get a medal and a t-shirt), and signed up for the big event.

I spent hours and hours cleaning and trying to remove stains from my clothing. I planned lessons. And now it's 9 PM and I'm finally trying to take a deep breath. On the plus side, my apartment smells and looks nice. And I have a delicious chocolate lovers' bundt cake calling my name. I don't know how many times I have said this, but honestly, I'd rather have someone just A) Tell me no instead of give me a maybe B) Not even mention something without having the intention of doing it. A): I waited all spring break to hear about something that I expected pro...
