How is it possible?

That I have soooooo much to do on my day off but I feel like doing none of it?

Going with your gut

I am not a huge political guru. I don't know all the facts. What I did know is that I actually for once in my life was interested in what a candidate was saying and actually believed him at the same time. In school we hold mock trials and by a landslide McCain won. After hearing the "mock" winner I was also "priveledged" enough to hear a lot of the teachers and aides opinions. I was shocked to hear that so many people were against Obama and judged him only by his lack of experience...to say the least. I was surprised that they didn't 'feel' anything when he spoke. They debated and spoke about their reasons why they didn't like him and they sparked a small spark in my mind on whether or not I should stick to my orignial choice.

After school I picked Brooke up and brought her with me to vote. I closed the curtain and easily and without any hesitation picked Obama. I am happy that I stuck to my first decision, my gut feeling. I hope that the people that didn't vote for him will come around and accept the change because it IS going to be for the better.

New Challenge and Goal for the future...Who'll join me?

I really want to run in the New York City Marathon. I am giving myself till 2010. For you experienced runners do you think I would have to train longer? Let's here your thoughts and see who is joining me?
