C25K

-

These are the shoes that will (hopefully) be carrying me across the finish line at the Lincoln Park Run For The Zoo in June.
I've been using the C25K program, you know, because I've never run a 5K in my life, or been that much of a runner, and so far so good. I started the program just after the new year. Was dying for a week so couldn't run and then had to start all over again in February. I missed more days than I should have (up to missing an entire week and a half this month), but finally got back into the swing of things this week. In fact, I hit a milestone by completing 2 miles just the other day. WHAT!?! It was ridiculous, but after a full 20 minute run, I think that I'll be in good shape for completing the race this summer.

Not even a little. - -Is that fair? Now I realize that plans change sometimes, possibly even the better half of the time, but... C'mon... It's two weeks until my birthday... Shouldn't I get a little leeway with this?

Bad Dreams v Nightmares

-
I couldn't tell you the last time I had a nightmare. Of course, now that I've said that, I'm probably going to have a wicked horrible one tonight, but that's besides the point. Bad dreams on the other hand.... Well, before Sunday night, I couldn't have told you the last time I had one. Since Sunday though, I've been plagued by them. One (at least one) every time I fall asleep for a good time. Now, you may be asking: What's the difference between a bad dream and nightmare? I don't know if there's a universal definition, but a nightmare, to me, is when some scary mass murdered is after you or when someone you love dearly passes away. I still remember my first nightmare, and it involved skeletons chasing me with knives. Weird... And scary. A bad dream on the other hand... Things just aren't right in a bad dream - -They're not how they're suppose to be. People are saying "I love you" to the wrong people. Kissing people who t
