i miss blogging...
i miss reading people's blogs and then being able to take the time and leave a comment...
i miss finding new people's blogs and the fun adventures that they discover...
i never intended this blog to be anything...it was an outlet in grad school...it was a social experiment that at times i almost have deleted...but i have come to enjoy aspects of it. i enjoy the writing process...the creative process...but now...sigh...not so much time.
ironman training is going really well. i'm really enjoying it, but I think i have spawned two gremlins that live in my body. Their names are: Mr. Tired and Mr. Hungry
Now Mr. Tired has a lot to do with the necessity of going to bed at 9pm since i wake up every day...oh yes...every day at 5am. Problem is: i am not a morning person. And well...look at that...it's 9:16 and i'm being a rebel and writing this post. So my gremlin named Mr. Tired is really my own fault.
But Mr. Hungry? He's a bit of a pest at the moment and I don't think it's going to get any better as time goes on. They tell you to eat every 4 hours to keep your sugar levels stable...bla...bla...bla....But my day looks like: wake at 5am eat a snack...go do a workout...eat breakfast at 745 am...Hungry shows his head around 10am...and then again at 12...definately by 3pm, but if i'm having a bad day as early as 2...and then 4 and then if I have an evening workout...don't forget the pre-workout snack and there is dinner at 7...my conclusion: THERE ARE MONSTERS IN MY BELLY!! Either that or I have a tape worm...take your pick.
oh wait...back to the topic of this post...i miss blogging. I do...i'm not even sure if anyone is reading this much anymore...but if you are: hi!
There are realities in life...and i've made choices between choosing to do an ironman as well as some other choices that are sucking the time out of my life oh...yea and then there is that pesky thing called work that has decided to light itself on fire in good fashion. But in truth...while i do miss this blog and reading everyone's blogs...the mis-adventures i have begun embarking on between ironman training and the other things that take up the rest of my time I'm pretty happy with. I just wish I had another 2 hours every day.
So...my sad blog might be even sadder this spring and I even had some silly ideas of how to redesign my writing voice, but i don't know if that will happen or not. Takes a lot of brain cells to do that and recently my little head is only holding so much information apparently.
so...this space will be a little sparce this spring...but it's not because I don't miss it. Unfortunately there are only so many hours in a day!

Make blogging a habit like flossing your teeth. It will help you vent some of the crazy that comes with Ironman training. And it will get more crazy!
We miss you too! Glad the training is going well and maybe give yourself the ok to just do quick updates that us know you're alive :-)
Hi!! Don't worry--people are still reading. :)
sleep and eat.
I'll still read and comment.
keep your eyes on the prize.
Like flossing?! I am supposed to floss too!
CRAP!
But he is right about the stress of training for IM. It's nice to hear people say that you are on the right track and that you are not out there by yourself.
It's not so nice to hear them say "Don't worry, it'll get worse". But they'll say that too! :)
Looking forward to seeing you there
Everything in moderation is good - including blogging or reading others :) I've had to cut back on the blogging lately too - just too much work and not enough time. Glad to hear training is going well!
