So, I'm completely hoarse and I nearly had an asthma attack.
How was your Easter?
I just got back from Katie & Anna's (& four other girls...it's a crazy house) place, where they hosted a fabulous and incredibly fun Easter Pot Luck & Egg Hunt. I haven't celebrated Easter since I was probably like 10, so it was incredibly nice and fun and HILARIOUS. I got some prize pictures of the frantic egg hunt before my camera died. Then it was pretty much an Anna Hemphill dance party for an hour or so, where I laughed myself nearly to death. Jamie and Natalie are prize interpretive dancers, and Anna channeled some Justin Sease classics during Don't Stop Believin'. And Billy, Peter, Natalie and I enjoyed creating the Jealous Boyfriend Series.
It was a good end to a loooong weekend...I spent most of it washing windows for Denise and Shawn. Which I know sounds weird. They bought this old, neglected house that they're fixing up themselves so they can sell it again. So these poor windows were in serious, serious trouble. I felt like a bizarre combination of Dolores Claiborne (read the book right now, it's phenomenal) and Cinderella.
And for the few of you who read this...I accepted the internship at Florida Studio! EEE!
It's so weird. Now that the long and frantic job search is pretty much over, you'd think that space on my plate and in my brain would free up...but NO. Like dinner theatre, this ending just means that more TRR/day job/take your pick stuff is perfectly poised to pile onto my endless and wonderful To-Do list. So basically, I'm as busy as ever.
I'm also stupidly tired. It's almost 10:00, and that's approaching my pumpkin-time these days.
However, one final thing, in case Gemma reads this...
I ran for an hour yesterday morning, and I got almost 5 miles/8K in. I was on the Noland trail, which means lots and lots of little hills...so my already-slow pace got even slower, but that's okay! My goal is to survive the 10K without collapsing and dying, so I'm focusing on endurance rather than speed.
Tomorrow I'm doing a relatively short run and then my 'bedtime yoga' at 6:30. Good times.
Hope everyone had a good weekend... :)

woo way to go annie! don't you wish the 10k was on a trail? i enjoy that more than the pavement! and i am so happy for your internship. where in florida? and when will you be there? just in case i can come visit! haha
today i am attempting 5 miles. good for you for getting that far! we can do it!
you are right about those hills though...they slow you down! but the pavement hurst my legs or something...i don't know. i still need to read that book. b/c i don't feel as motivated as i did before.
How exciting about the Florida internship! How long will you be there?
Gemma - you totally should read the book! It helps you look at running as a long term part of your lifestyle rather than just a short term commitment. It's awesome. And aah less than a week! We can do it!
Meghan - Yay it is exciting! lol I'm going to be there exactly a year - from August 25th to August 25th. How weird is that? Of course, if I fall in love with it I might ask to stay longer or I might try to get a taste of another theatre - Portland Stage Company in Maine keeps coming back into my brain for some reason. (And going from Florida to Maine would be quite an experience!)
