HAPPY

Just to show you how distracted I am these days:

This morning I grabbed a free paper at the entrance of my building, as I usually do, and walked into to work. I fixed my morning coffee and was eating breakfast at my desk as I started my computer and read the paper. I read the articles more carefully than usual, though I don't know why, but when I was flipping the page, noticed that the paper said Wednesday. "Wow, it's already Wednesday?" I thought to myself.

I spent a good five minutes believing it was already Wednesday; it wasn't until I looked at the TV lineup and saw that it was results night on American Idol and Mariah Carey would perform that I realized it was in fact Tuesday, and I was reading LAST WEDNESDAY'S paper. Really? How did I make it all the way to the TV listings before realizing that, and furthermore, how is it still in the stand?

Last night was a great night. Unexpectedly. Those are the best nights, when you don't plan for it to be such a great night and then it's awesome? Love those. It started when I called a spa - carefully selected after my extensive research - and booked a few treatments for the Monday after the race. If I'm not going to pamper myself, who IS? Then I met up with the brothers Thomas for another free sneak peek, this time of Baby Mama. Y'all - HILARIOUS. Go see it this weekend so it gets good opening weekend numbers. Then, I ran a four mile stretch that will be four miles of course on Saturday by the way - chance of rain back up to 40% and the high is now 70°, yikes!

I'm distracted from everything else because I am Focused with a capital F on the half! So I'm starting to feel really prepared! Yay!
