My fixie has another "I voted!" sticker on its top tube! Wooo! And PLEASE NOTE: I'd just like to *clarify* here, in case if it's not obvious below, that my problem is NOT with McCain and Republicans, my problem is with what I perceive to be ridiculosity, e.g. assassination talk and the idea that Obama is going to take us down the steep and scary path to Socialism. I like McCain. I think he's old, and I think that recently I have agreed less with his words and actions than I did during the Primaries, but I don't think he would have made a bad president and I would not have moved to Canada if he'd won... So Facebook has been pretty ...

Well after my pseudo-late night on Halloween, I spent the rest of the weekend laying low and doing lots of sleeping and a little bit of training. Here's my nap tally for the past 4 days, read it and WEEP!!!! Thursday: 2.5 hours (followed by 8.5 hours overnight) Friday: 1 hour (followed by 8 hours overnight) Saturday: 1.5 hours (followed by 9 hours overnight) Sunday: 2.5 hours (followed by 9 hours overnight) That's 7.5 hours of napping so far, one more nap today and I am at a full night's sleep! I don't know if it's the rainy/snowy/yucky weather, or if it's just the end of a long season, or both, but my body says it needs sleep and I am very happy to oblige. ...

So, I did indeed score a ticket to Tainted Love last night, and I did indeed have an actual Halloween (rather than a virtual one, laying on my couch in my good athlete costume and reading about everyone else's night via Facebook status updates)! And I once again swore up and down and all over the place that next year, next year I will actually wear a proper costume rather than just raiding my own closet. God. However, even though my Slutty Cowgirl costume was a bit weak, apparently I showed enough skin and enough leg for it to be acceptable. Today I'm back to being a good athlete. It's raining, I am excited to run in the rain!! [gallery=27]
