I am my next sneeze waiting to happen...

I got my California Dreamin Racing Series medal last weekend; upon my completion of the Long Beach Half Marathon. It was the least trained I'd been throughout any of the three I've run this year, but the most worthwhile, cuz I finally got my coveted "extra" medal and jacket. I feel so accomplished. Now if only I could train and improve on my times, he he he.

Of sneezes and then some..
Allergies have been not-so-good to me. I had to go home early from work yesterday I was suffering so bad. Not even my Claritin D has been working for me lately. Blech, I don't know why my allergies actually get worse as summer comes to an end and changes to fall; but it does. They passed out H1N1 kits at work today, complete with kleenex, hand wipes, hand sanitizer, and get this; face masks! ha ha ha. I gues my sneezing yesterday was more than some people could handle, he he he.

Of voicemails and checking
Okay, so I have some, correction A voicemail issue. With that said, I would like to try to establish a worldwide...protocol, for leaving voicemails, thereby improving the listening experience. I always get a call from some people that leave the following vm, "Jay, this is _____. I just had a question to ask you, call me back." Well, the question is never posed on said voicemail. Only to call to find out what the question is and then formulate an answer. Um, can't you just ask me on the voicemail? That way, I'd at least feel like there was some substance to it and could already prepare my mind for a response. Otherwise, you might as well just text me to call back or something. It's not that major, just popped in my head :)

With all the b-day parties over, and trips come and gone, and activities mostly finished, I've had more time to organize and clean lately. Not as much as I would find ideal, but more than the youscsh. I like it. It's nice. And it's probably only the calm before the holiday storm. But enjoying it I am.

Man, I need to run...haven't run since the half and the Nike Human race is on Friday...krikey!

Today's picture hails from Cat and Joemama's wedding...wow, almost a month ago now...my goodness time flies. Anywho, so another congrats to the happy happy couple, thanks so much for letting me be a part of your wedding! I even got to do the invocation, which I was completely nervous about, so I hope I didn't botch it up too badly.

Of loyalty on TV
I find myself to be quite a loyalist when it comes to TV shows. Currently, I'm watching quite a few of them...from my old ones; Lost, Smallville, Heroes, HIMYM to new ones; Modern Family and Glee. Heroes seems to have taken a turn towards the less exciting; in fact, even the season finale of the pilot season was kinda ehhh....but i stuck with it and I'm still entertained. HIMYM, I've stuck with it through it's 5 seasons so far and I'm also not that thrilled w/ this season thus far; some have even gone so far as to say that the show has "Jumped the Shark," which for those of you who don't know, is the reference to Happy Days when the show completely lost it when the Fonz jumped over a shark while on ski's and in his trademark leather jacket...but I digress...where was I... oh yes, HIMYM, so yah, people think it might've jumped the shark, and altho I'm not as excited about the show as I used to be, I still stick with it, in hopes that it the ship will right itself, just like they did in Lost. So is it because I'm such a loyalist that I stick it out with these shows? Or merely because of the fact that I'm easily entertained. I'd like to say it was the former, rather than the latter...

I'm too lazy to write more today, but I definitely have more to mention...
