Waiting for My Jet Plane

I've been MIA I know. Probably because I don't have much to discuss or find myself with much time to blog. But I have time now as I am stranded in the exciting and bustling Birmingham, AL airport. What started as a 10 minute delay has turned into a 3 1/2 hour delay. I just want to leave and at this point not really caring what time as long as I don't end up stranded here (which is looking more likely as each hour passes). Now I should be writing a report as it is due tomorrow and I have yet another day trip scheduled but I thought I would procrastinate a bit longer.

With all my day trips and general wedding stuff I don't find myself running much (or having time to read about all you running!) The lack of running is increasing my stress levels as I have no outlet now. I really want to get out there. I have often found myself wishing I had the schedule I had last summer filled with humid long runs and new speed workouts but that just is not the case. Luckily I was able to run (in addition to consuming copious amounts of beer and bomb pop martinis) over the long weekend. Also was able to squeeze in a short run in the drizzle with no garmy before catching my flight yesterday.

On the wedding front - 47 days and counting with 98876554234 items on my list to complete. There are good things to do though - a tasting this Thursday, bachelorette party this weekend (the girls are surprising me so this should be fun!), and I think I found a fantastic new and reasonable affordable florist. The last one found it inconvenient to return calls/emails or find any time to meet with me.

Now send your positive thoughts that I get home tonight and am able to spend a few hours of much needed sleep in my bed before heading out for another day visit!

I hope you made it home for some snooze time.

I do not envy you your schedule. I'm sure you'll be having a kick ass hen party this weekend though. Live it up, my friend! :)
