    i just happen to email her today about moving into town to see if she would still be interested in training together. she said she just hunted down my email as i emailed her because she was just looking up race schedules (running/biking/tris) and wanted to see when i was going to be healed and if i heard anything on the job. well i now have a training buddy, though not sure how badly she's going to kick my @ss. hopefully not to bad. i told her hopefully i'll be running "normally" by june. i'm even more excited and terrified now to move!
    CWR- Fantastic news!! Making running/biking buddy in Anchorage even before arriving, way to go. How are your moving plans coming along?

    BTW, X, you would have laughed so hard if you saw the package job my BF did with his stuff. He only bought one roll of packing tape, so 75 percent of the boxes were not sealed, so you had to hold them on the bottom so they didn't open and they were overflowing at the top. Then he ran out of boxes so he did the old throw-it-in-a-garbage-bag thing then ask yourself 20 times which bags are trash and which are stuff.

    Not that I'm making fun of him at all. I wouldn't do something like that.

    OTG that's funny. no wonder you got such a good work out. you had to be coordinated also to carry those boxes up and down steps!

    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    Oh OTG, packing tape is my friend. So are free newspapers and boxes. I'm being very careful how I pack my stuff because it's not going to be in my hands the whole time. Who knows if this guy is going to hit every pothole from here to OR just because he can. Each wine glass, each candleholder... everything wrapped separately and padded well. Now, I just have to figure out how to box a band saw, a scroll saw, my sanders and other misc woodworking tools. Then there's gram's rocking chair that I haven't refinished the whole way yet and the canoe coffeetable with the oars endtable... Arrrrgh! The computer desk is getting dismantled tonight I hope. I'll transfer everything to the shelves on the walls for the next week or so since they are clear of books and such.

    Oops, gotta go. OR is calling...
    see ya this weekend!

    I dunno that Peanut would mesh well with Ito'san, then....

    *gasp!*

    Given Peanut's size, I would probably think that'd be for the best, whatever Ito'san's preference.
    Physics says kitty would be on the bottom...

    But what do I know-
    I prefer the "upper hand" anyway
