Flip turns are murder on me. My nose runs all night and all the next day I sit with sinuses that feel like they're full of concrete.

And yes, I could take the benedryl, I meant to last night and forgot and I can't take it now or I'll zzzz at my desk all day. (Not that I'm not doing that now, but I would seriously fall asleep and that'd be bad.)

On the upside my breathing is getting much much better. MUCH better. Noticeably much better. I can do 4 lengths now without stopping where before I couldn't do two. The group did 2500m last night. I think that I only did 2200 or 2300, but I was gabbing with the coach about technique during the cool down laps and missed 100m there, and I was too slow during the sets and only got 250m instead of 300 - and we did that 3 times. So... 250m short of the 2500. Still. Not bad, not bad!

On the down side, I haven't run in about 3 weeks. I'm just not finding I have the time. I know, I know... make the time. I will.

***Achoo***

I didn't want to get out of bed this morning. I still don't, though here I'm finding myself dressed and at work, so I guess I've already succeeded at that.

I think I'm going to go blow some money on a massage today. It's very handy when the massage therapist has the office next door to yours

Since pacolouie had such a brilliant horoscope, I thought I'd check mine:

Saggitarius: If you are doing the best you can do, how can it result in the worst possible outcome? If you are unhappy about what's happening, it can only be for one of two reasons. Either you are not doing your best and, deep down, you know it... or you are, and you are misinterpreting the situation. You may be entertaining a false fear or succumbing to unnecessary pessimism. The strong celestial suggestion now, is that you are on the right track - even if the wrong things sometimes seem to be happening.

One of those wise words of wisdom that can be interpreted in so many situations.

Oh, and one more thing...

framlingem where are you? You ok?

that was MY horoscope too!

and. it was right on. mostly. but you can interpret it lots of ways, right?

i KNOW i'm doing my best so i'm must be misinterpreting the situation.
time to go bury my head in the sand for awhile till it all blows over, i guess.

care to join me???

oh, your sinuses are already filled with sand.
sort of.
;)

benedryl at work would be bad, wouldnt it? unless they dont mind you sleeping there.
hehe...also: you have a massage person next door to you???

LUCKY!

i KNOW i'm doing my best so i'm must be misinterpreting the situation.

I guess that's the million dollar question. When do you know what your best is. Ok, in your situation you're doing MORE than the best you can, but how do I know I'm doing the best? Is there ever "the best?" Can't you always do better? When does one call it "the best" and when does one call it a draw and decide that there must be misinterpretation afoot?

no.

*I* know that you are doing your best, too. unless you've suddenly gotten really good at lying.
i'm used to reading your journal and i can tell that you are doing a super job, in all areas.

um.
*I* trust my judgement so why dont you?
;)
anyway, moot point. the fact is; you've got a lovely Kid, a nice dog and house, a great work ethic and neat hobbies and you exercise.
plus, you are CUTE! (and not in the chipmunk way.)

so yeah, it's not YOU.
trust me.

(ps: it's not me either, but sometimes a sad fact with sagittarius's is that we occasionally hook up with fucktards.)
