Some random thoughts/happenings/musings over the past 24 hours or so around the league:
* Got another walk in last night in training for that 5K. I finished in 52 minutes. Not bad. My goal of breaking an hour definitely appears to be reachable.
* While on my walk, I came within 10 yards of two very young deer that appeared to be lost. They were hiding behind the bushes at one of those large houses that I’ll always dream about but never be able to afford. I’m not sure who startled whom first. But we stared at each other for about 30 seconds or so, waiting to see which of us was going to make the next move. Finally, I cautiously went across the street and continued walking, hoping that the two youngsters would gallivant across the street safely. Which they did. I only wish I would have had my camera with me, although that surely would have scared them.
* Also seen on my walk? Two little girls, practicing their gymnastic skills in their front yard. Made me reminisce of my days, watching the Olympics and then making up my mind that I was going to be a gold medalist. They want to be Shawn Johnson or Nastia Liukin. I wanted to be Kim Zmeskal. Remember her?
* I love it when things like this happen. And no, they don’t know each other.
* Today is my little sister’s second wedding anniversary with her lovely husband. Where has the time gone? Seems like just yesterday. Wow.
* In other news from the homefront, my Mom is now a proud Facebook user. You know the times have changed when you can’t get a phone call through to your parents because Mom is updating her friends list.
* Speaking of Facebook, I started a Blog Network for this little blog of mine. But I need 10 people to verify I’m the author. So, if you know me and you use Blog Network on Facebook, a little help would be appreciated!
* Big news from the friends. Robyn is on her way to Budapest … and she decided to start a blog about her big Hungarian adventure. Read it here. And, a super big congratulations to my newly-engaged friends, who I won’t name just yet, simply because I don’t want to ruin the news for anyone they haven’t told yet …
So, it’s been an interesting 24 hours. And it should only get more interesting, as I spend this afternoon discussing my educational future with my advisor. Guaranteed I’ll only be even more confused by tomorrow …
