Desperately Seeking Stevie...

"A million delightful ideas are crowding your head, and your spirit is as effervescent as seltzer water. It's a great time to mix in with a big crowd...they'll love your enthusiasm."

Translation: you have ADD and you've been identifying too well with the vodka & soda drinks at the bar...it's time to lose yourself in the chaos around you.

Yes, I would say His sense of humor has returned.

Training kicked my ass hard today. Today was my endurance day, and I'm a week behind the schedule. I ran/walked 5 miles today at the gym. That's the longest distance I've ever hit in one session, and it's just a mile and change under the distance for my next race, the 10K. I feel good that I made it and I feel comfortable that I'll make it through the next event.

Except I feel like I need to hack off my left foot. It's throbbing in pain, and I was actually limping around my apartment when I came home. Something is not right with that foot, and I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do about it. If this is what happens after 5 miles, I'm afraid of what will happen when I walk the mini-marathon.

I am soooooooo out of shape. 5 miles really hurt me, and I ended up soaking in a hot bath with a tall, icy vodka & soda to ease my pain. It worked, but I'm not sure it's a race-sanctioned recovery practice and I probably should refrain from sharing it with others. Oh well, the bath has me warm and relaxed (and my skin so freakin' soft right now...it's a shame I have no boy to share this with). As soon as I finish this post, I'm off to winky town.

Oh! I almost forgot! I found out today that Stevie Nicks is going on tour with Chris Isaak this summer, but there isn't any ticket information available on her website except for a few shows in Vegas next month.

I love Chris Issak.
I LOVE Stevie Nicks.
Therefore I MUST find tickets to this show.

All I want for my birthday is a ticket to this show. I cannot explain how overwhelmingly excited I am right now. I have no one I know of that would want to go with me, but I don't care. I am in love with the notion that I could see both of them together at one venue. This is better than The Police reunion or meeting Billy Corgan in person. I have no idea if she'll even make it to Indy, but I'll catch a Detroit or Chicago venue if I have to...I will now stalk her official website until it provides updated tour information. I'm so excited right now...
