Big Boston day tomorrow

Ok, so I am officially on vacation... there are certainly some benefits to this, however it does take me off my normal routine. Tomorrow we are headed to Boston to WATCH the marathon and the chilling until we head into Game 2. Our seats aren't great, but they were cheap and everyone loves play-off basketball. I am thinking it's going to be a long day though.

Did another long run today... I am not sure i like mixing speed into my runs that are longer than 10 miles. I have to faith in coach mike that he knows what he is talking about... I feel less ready today than I did a month ago. I am sure I am not, but my legs haven't been clued in yet. My mileage is definitely up- looking at around 35 a week... I was doing around 25. Is it terrible that I am dying to taper?

Fairly big development in the Ben and Kaity situation... we have talked about moving in together and in February it was NO WAY. We didn't talk about it other than in passing in March. April though- i brought up that I needed a roommate and we started talking about we are together all the time anyway... it would be cheaper... blah, blah... we decided we would live together (at bridge street or high street). I clearly was pushing for Bridge Street (I hate moving), but understood where he was coming from. Moving in with a girlfriend is a BIG deal, leaving friends behind is a BIG deal... we were hanging out and he announced that he would move into Bridge Street. I am glad now that i didn't push too much and let him process things on his own. Now we are trying to decide if we get a dog... I want one so badly... I want a cute little puppy... I am thinking a lab or a german shorthaired pointer... he is thinking german shepard. My only issue with german shepards are they are HUGE and they are really ugly when they are old. So, I guess we'll see.

Summer league has also been decided... Toby (the captain coordinator) said that Ben and Jess cannot captain together. I am glad that someone else got to make that decision... took the pressure off me. Phew- I think with recent developments though I would have been fine with it. She and I still need to figure out how to be able to be in the same place.

School- can we say VACATION! and it couldn't have come at a better time.

I am reading "the Shack" right now... interesting story. It's about a family who's daughter is kidnapped and murdered and the families struggle to maintain their relationship with God. It's interesting to spend most my reading time about faith and the relationship between Jesus, God and the holy spirit. I think I need to go back and reread the bible. anyone else read this?
