I've Honestly Never Tried

My son told me this morning that I'm strong enough to carry the refrigerator...

Maybe he's right.

My hour is almost come,
When I to sulphurous and tormenting flames
Must render up myself.

Pass The Ammo

The despondency fairy keeps rapping at my window.

So far I have resisted the urge to invite her in,
serve her a sweating glass of unsweetened iced tea.

But my resolve is a sandcastle.

She is lovely,
but I can see
those canines,
polished white
from cleaning
all the meat
off the bone.

The Half

Ran a half marathon on Saturday. Temperature was high (it hit 103 later in the day) and the course was very hilly (total elevation change was 2848 ft), but I did well.

2:13:34

That was good enough for 7th place. 2nd in my age group (the overall winner was also in my age group, he beat me by 34 minutes)

It was fun, but tough. I'm going back next year...and hoping for cooler temps!
