Sunday 2
So this week.. well, this Sunday was crazy hot.
And I spent a part of it helping Anne-girl move back home. Instead of walking, helped move, ate ALOT of Reza's, and lounged by a pool with some beer.
Hoped to have walked yesterday or Monday.. alas... too muggy or outright down pouring. NO fun. So perhaps tonight if only to get away from Mar and collect some Chi. I need it I've been so horribly distracted and my energies all over the place...I'm hoping a good long walk will help...
Look for more info on bodacious tata tees and massage specials from me to help raise me some more funds.
Thanks again to those that have contributed thus far... if I could write an ode to y'all I would... maybe I'll write a hiaku...
Sundays
are training days for me.
So after
Lindy By the Lake, I went ahead and walked from North Ave Beach to Union Station... Horrible day for it, so humid, but every once in a while a lovely breeze off of the lake.
Every practice walk turns into a adventures. I'd left North Ave beach earlier than I had originally planned because I was getting hot and tired and I'd rotated through all the leads....
Good thing too.. I'd made a pit stop at Moonlight Chocolatiers and got an Earl Grey chocolate...cause I bloody well deserved it...Then as I was passing by the Hard Rock Hotel, I found my OTHER bartender. So if ever you find yourself by the China Grill, go on in there and order up a Long Hard Ronnie from the cute good smellin' Irish bartender. I, unfortunately, had a train to catch so none for me... boo..
Purposefully went past the Art Institute to see the display for the Toulouse-Lautrec and Montmartre exhibit. Looks awesome - will have to go... perhaps another walk...
NYC... here I come
So I couldn't do Chicago AvonWalk this year... Soooo.. New York Avon Walk it is! October 1-2, 2005!!!!
Just finishing up my Avon Walk page at the moment but I wanted to be sure that I had something up to date on this page before I sent out the emails.
I drove past the Chicago walkers this year on the way to my massage class this past June. I coulda cried. All those pink shirts and smiling faces.. and I was missing out. I knew Kitty and Sandi were in there walking without me and I was so disappointed. But massage school was priority...
And now that I am finished... well, it occured to me that I wanted to volunteer in either Boston or New York anyways... why not go ahead and do the walk?
Signed up and ready to raise money and do a BUTTLOAD of walking. Yes, Miss Rachakate, this butt still stops traffic... ;)
80 more days.. BRING IT!!!
