1) I’m listening to an audiobook that I borrowed from Cracker Barrel for a long drive on Tuesday. Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger. I like listening to audiobooks on long drives, but I hate listening on short drives – and when do I have to listen to them otherwise? I got through 5 disks on the drive and now I’m struggling to finish listening to the rest of the story. I’m kind of torn on audiobooks anyhow. They read so much slower than I read regularly, and there’s all this dramatic, breathy speech … I get it, twins, a ghost. Can you just read it to me? I put the hard copy on hold at my local library, so if it comes in today or tomorrow I’ll just read the rest of the book.
2) I did the same thing with The Tender Bar. I own the book, but I listened to the first half on audio before switching back to the book. I have never been more annoyed by the phrase “The Men” in all my life than I was while listening to that book.
3) Henry has decided to start walking this week. WALKING! Before he even turned 7 months old! He holds onto the couch and goes back and forth. I think there’s more playpen time in his future. Must. Contain.
4) Henry turned seven months today. Happy Birthday, baby doll!
5) DST kicked my butt this year. I’ve been so tired all week, I’ve been later than normal to work nearly every day. I can’t wait to sleep in (relatively, until 7am or so, when the boys wake up). I’m salivating at the thought.
6) After two and a half months of running, I can go for longer times but I still can't seem to run for longer periods. Thus, I have decided to start a couch-to-10k program beginning on Monday. Goal is to run for longer periods of time without stopping. Not how fast I can run a specific distance, just how long I can run.
