CONGRATS, JAY-C ON FINISHING THE NEW YORK CITY MARATHON!!!!! WOOHOO!!!

i'm finally starting to feel better. i think the sleeping with the wet socks under dry wool socks might've worked. i'm still blowing my nose a ton, but i don't feel achy/sick anymore. i was able to run today, albeit in the basement on the treadmill as it's been pouring outside lately, but it was running! this has been a fairly relaxed weekend. friday night we caught a performance of "One Day", a story about Portland and vision PDX, a community led effort initiated by Portland Mayor Tom Potter. the play was supported by grants from various organizations, and there is no cost for attendance. i believe it's playing for two more weekends on fri, sat, & sun. definitely worth the time.

saturday morning we went to my parents' house to feed & walk their dog, pepper. we spent the rest of the day running errands, hanging hooks in our garage ceiling for our bikes, & doing other stuff around the house. we went out for dinner at stanford's, thanks to a friend who gave us a gift card there, and watched a silly movie on vh1 about the 80's (forget what it was called). today we both slogged through piles of laundry, & i went running & shopping while j climbed at the gym. i just found out that our tenants bought a house & are leaving next month, so i have an advert posted on craigslist. i hope we find some tenants just as fabulous as they were soon!
