It's Cold in Oklahoma!!!

I am so excited! I am sitting here at work (don't worry...I'm at lunch) freezing and sipping on a hot cup of chai and it is awesome! The cold..not the chai. Well, the chai is good too.

I love this weather. You get to dress in layers, eat comfort food, not shave your legs. Well, you don't have to. I'll do it at least once a week. You know. Just because. The only drawback to the cold weather is that there is less to do outside. But, give me a warm fireplace and I won't mind.

I have tossed sanity to the wind and signed up to run a half marathon in a couple of weeks. Am I ready for this? Uh...NO! Am I going to do it anyway? Uh...yeah. I'm getting a lot of encouragement from friends and loved ones. You know, stuff like, "Are you crazy?" and "You're running HOW many miles?". Makes you just warm all over doesn't it?

I'm still working on fundraising for the marathon I'm going to attempt in January. Who knew $4000 was going to be so hard to raise? Any ideas out there? Let's keep it clean. I hope everyone is having a Happy Monday. Well, try to anyway.

Have you considered standing on a street corner and...singing?

Uh...I'm pretty sure that's illegal, but thanks for the suggestion.
