Cold ugh

i have a cold. i can't sing. I might go home early to rest.
that is all

Broken Toe

So, I decided to help a friend move on friday. All was going well until I neglected to pay attention and had a box hit my foot so hard, I got sick. Finally, I am fitting back in to my shoes, thankfully the swelling has gone down. With an injury though that means no running- ugh. I did go for a couple short bike rides though.

Sunday, I cleaned my apartment and made a lasagne. no recipe, I just made it up as I went. Possibly the best lasagne Ive ever made.

Awesome rehearsal.

I had the most awesome Bach rehearsal today. I just thought I would share.

Actually, I felt rather dejected after my last rehearsal and completely unprepared; this rehearsal was a bit of vindication. I think it put my mind to ease, and definitely Jere's mind at ease. Come Palm Sunday, I am going to be the best Evangelist that downtown Minneapolis has ever seen.

I want some Poutine. I am willing to bring a flask of gravy in to a bar to create it.

Run, Yoga, Beer

So last night there was no vegetable hotdish making, but there was running (3 miles), yoga (75 minutes), and then Subway. I noticed that my warrior one keeps getting better and better, but one side is definitely stronger than the other. I guess I will have to work on that.

This Morning I registered for the Surly Brewery Tour. I am totally excited. Mar. 19 6-8!

must keep positive outlook

It is sunny today- did you know that? did you know that the coffee tastes good, not burnt for once. I have pictures of my family at my desk, (well, most some of them), and they are smiling. I went running last night, and I am not sore yet. I am going again today, and then perhaps to yoga. Maybe I'll make a vegetable hotdish tonight, Maybe.

My plans for the weekend are still flushing their way out. Saturday Morning, I need to get my oil changed and take Gigantor in to be tuned up. She needs new bar tape, and I want orange. I do hope the Chain has Orange. I am getting together with D and then maybe I will take Mom and Dad's Dog for a run or to the park.

Sunday, I have church, and then I will go to a spin class or something, all the while, trying to invoke the spirit of St John. Maybe Ill make something to eat this weekend. Tomorrow will be a sunny day.

Holy Land Deli

Deliciousness abounds in the lunch buffet at this NE Minneapolis Establishment. I believe, along with libgyrl, my counterpart, that the highlight was an eggplant dish, followed closely with the gyros. MMMMMM. I can justify this trip to the buffet because I am preparing the Gospel of John for an upcoming concert. What better place to find Jesus and his Homies than the Holy Land?

While we were there, we bought some really fresh pita, and I bought a giant container of dates. I foresee many trips to the Holy Land in my future, yet I need to cook at home.

Tonight, before church, I plan a 5mile run and some much needed core work. I plan on being sore for the rest of my life due to the sad state I have let my body fall into. The bright part is that I can change it.

The feeling of being overwhelmed.

First of all, let me just say that not all young adults are ready to go to college when they graduate highschool. Furthermore, College is not appropriate for everyone, which is where apprenticing and trade school comes in. This came to mind once again during a meeting this morning. Perhaps I can trade in my student loans and become a cabinet maker.

Peanut Butter Krispie Treats are the bane of my existence. How can they be so delicious. How.

I got my ass handed to me in a Hatha Yoga class today.

So much Singing!!!! yeah?
This weekend I have Prairie Home Companion with VocalEssence, and Witness with VocalEssence, plus Church. Next week, I have Witness on Tues and Wed., a St John Passion rehearsal Tues., Ash Wednesday on Wed., and a MN Chorale project/concert Thursday night, Sat. Morning, and Sat. Evening. Church on Sunday. Lots of money for me, but not much "wellness" time.

I am really struggling with the Bach Passion, that is learning the Evangelist role...I fear that I am not ready to take on such a role. oh well, no turning back now.
