Bonjour everyone! I am actually sitting outside the Jimmy Johns on Hennepin Ave S. They have internet here. Thank you Apple Store (across the street!). I do not have internet at my apartment, trying to save money where i can so that i can pay rent! so I have to get creative when i need the web. Tonight, i an phoneless. I forgot my phone and bus pass at work and realized it when i was getting on the bus. I just told the driver i had to find mine in my purse, and then walked to the back of the bus. i assumed, since the bus is so busy, that the drive would forget all about my promise by the time we got to my stop...he did. i just walked right off the bus, no problems. that's the second time i've done that. excellent!

In other news, I have decided to run a 5k this fall with Josh. We're running the Chaska Turkey Trot on November, 13. i'm actually pretty pumped about it. I'm sitting here, just steps away from the gym, preparing to go run a mile and a half. i think tonight i can do it. I do need to get some new shoes though. Mine are old and i need more support for my ankles and bunions. ugh, why do i have to have those? sick. Anyways, this will be a pretty big accomplishment for me, since i am not a runner. I will start with the 5ks, then eventually run a 10k, and i would like to run a half marathon before i have a family of my own...but we'll see about that. I still don't know why a person would actually want to run 13ish miles. it just sounds so stupid. but i'll try!

This weekend will be 1 year for Josh and me. September 16, 2009 we met in person, for the first time, at Solera. we had some drinks and talked for hours about everything. i felt an instant connection to him...and i think he felt the same. anyway, now a year later we're still going strong. We'll be in IL on the 16th for my best college friend's wedding. Justin is getting married and he asked me to stand with him, on his side. so i'll be a "Groomsmaid". i'm looking forward to it. Then in October, the first week, Josh and I are headed up to Two Harbors and Duluth to spend a week sight seeing and relaxing. I've never really been to either place before, at least not that i can remember. I stayed in DUluth one night with jamey because we went up to watch our friend Katie Timm play volleyball in college, but i think i was there for a total of like 8 hours. not sure. anyway...i'm really looking forward to our time together up there. It'll be awesome!

Ok, i need to go and run this 1.5 miles now. i was trying to get a hold of Josh on Gmail chat, but he refuses to look at his phone and talk to me. i have NO other way to communicate with him because my phone is on my desk at work. i guess i'll check back after my run. ugh...i feel helpless and lost without my phone. alright gotta run. ha. get it? run...because i'm running a turkey trot. haha the word trot makes me laugh.

CHOW.
