The Status is NOT Quo

finished my 5k race today in 35:55. Go me! New personal record! (Well, first official personal record, in as much as it was my first race......)

it was hot as all hell when i went to register. then, we had a thunderstorm kick in, and the temperature dropped- no exaggeration here- about 20 degrees.

My number was 303. That's cause I registered months ago- April or May, I forget.

davitant, I'm sorry, no one had a camera. Tiger Paw Images may at some point have a very icky looking photo of me about mile marker 2, but ew. You will also be able to find my name in the race results at Compuscore... I'm number 1241.
Random statistic time:
My total time was 35:55
My average pace per mile was 11:34
My place among all women 458/519
My place in my age group F25-29:52/59

woooooo, I wasn't last!!!!!

Hmm, good thing I went for my run this afternoon instead of waiting for tomorrow. This is what weather.com has to say about my local forecast:

Heavy Rain
High 68° F
Precip: 100%

Rain, heavy at times early. High 68F. Winds ENE at 5 to 10 mph. Rainfall may reach two inches.

That's quite reassuring, no? -_-

I kinda want to go play FFXI. I kinda want to go level my WHM, but I'm not sure how long it'll take to go find a party. I should also go level Khihii... I'm sure Infinitemonkey is getting lonely.

I made up my dinner tonight. Had a plantain- got them at the store cause they were ass-cheap- 4/$1... so made platanos. Also had some leftover broiled chicken on the bone form the 4th. So I peeled all the chicken off the bone (ewwwww greasy hands). I put some water and rice in a pan, and cooked the rice, then added a can of diced tomatoes with jalapenos. In retrospect, I should have cooked w/ the tomatoes so it wouldn't have taken so long... Then I dumped the chicken in, too. And boom, spanishy/mexicany rice and chicken. I ate all the platanos while the rice was cooking... So now I'm not really hungry. But I have rice and chicken downstairs when/if I do get hungry.

Thought of another major milestone that comes soon w/ my weight loss. in ~5 pounds, I will be the same weight I was the summer before 9th grade. Ok, that's a scary one. O_o
