Awesome - I was already thinking of Montana/Dakotas, etc. I'm trying to convince Joel to go to the Ingalls Homestead in De Smet, SD. ;)

How awesome! Such a cool way to raise money for ACS.

Doug & I visited my bro when he lived in ND and we drove back through South Dakota and went through the Badlands, saw Mt. Rushmore. Beautiful drive. When I went to Montana with Kulaga's leadership expedition, we got to see a bit of Yellowstone - I've always wanted to see more of it! How fun!!!

You can always volunteer to hand them out, then steal one for yourself! :) And I don't know Sara - she's well past the "basic" classes from the looks of it. Hope to be so talented someday!

I think the only reason I would want to run a marathon--half or otherwise--would be to wear the tin foil blanket afterwards. Fun! Oh, and do you know Sarah @ sillygrrl.com? I believe she's an aerialist at Flyhouse, too.

Do it! And don't wait for Aaaron!

Here is my advice:1. Run because you like it.
People always tell me "I wish I liked running" or just think I'm crazy, but running doesn't have to make you feel terrible or hurt or be anything but great. Take it slow, listen to your body & don't focus on speed/calories/etc. Each footstep is a meditation.

2. Sign up for a race.
I'm a million times more motivated if I have something to keep me accountable. Pick a 5k 2 months from now & run a few times a week. Check out the Couch to 5k program for ideas on how to get started: http://www.c25k.com/. I use Hal Higdon's schedules for my training - he has all distances & 3 levels of training for each: http://halhigdon.com/.

3. Move here & be my running partner.
Someday. :)

Just so you know, based on your habit [& other friends that keep the same habit] of running, Aaron's going to teach me how to run when he gets home. So your one of your goals has inspired someone else to create their own goal. Let's just hope it's the "therapy" I've been needing/looking for!

Starting at 1:03:00 - Amy Goodman prompts Julian Assange to reflect on Wikileaks. I found his answer to be inspiring. Maybe you will too? Hope you're well. Joel too.Yours,Jason Matney

Re: On archives and identity, a quote

chelsea — Sun, 31 Jul 2011 23:09:22 -0000

I haven't eaten red meat in about 6 years & haven't had a hot dog in probably about 10! But I'm suddenly surrounded by hot dog aficionados & I think I'm ready to give it a shot!

Also - YES REUNION! There's always so much going on in Ypsi, or we could head out your way. Regardless, yes!

Re: Summer 2011 Bucket List

rachel — Sat, 02 Jul 2011 20:36:36 -0000

wait. wait. does "eat a hotdog [liz]" mean you've never eaten a hotdog?! or just not yet this summer?! i am concerned.

and, maybe amy, liz & rachel reunion could join the list?
