The race is tomorrow (2007 April 29 - ignore the post date). Tomorrow.
Marathon: So today I went over to the expo to pick up my packet. But I couldn't find the ChampionChip I bought, which sucked. Then I went to the pasta dinner with another Marine/classmate/runner and his fiance. I actually spent the whole time talking with the fiance as the Marine is quiet and a bit childish. In a good way. But it's obvious who the adult in the relationship is. One discusses law, plans for the future, etc. The other is thrilled by apples.
This is it... None of the people I thought would be here are. They've all dropped out and recently scheduled something that overrides my crowning achievement second only to becoming a Marine. My back-up didn't show (partially my fault but not entirely) either. I am doing all of this alone. I guess that isn't a bad thing looking back at how things go when I count on anyone but myself.
Language: Really short speaking practice today. I didn't accomplish much but confuse myself trying to explain English grammar to my partner.
Medical: Sick. In pain. Great start.
Apartment: The power is on! So I moved all my stuff today... I really over-loaded those boxes. Then I dumped them all over the floor trying to find stuff. Still... I'm officially in my apartment! Finally!
Oh, look! The bathroom sink is leaking and the plug doesn't work. There's no shower curtain. The fridge doesn't work! Great...
Personal: You can't keep me down. The world can't keep me down. So why do you think you can?
