Back in the Game

That..was a huge hiccup!

 

One year after starting my blog, I realized that a new love, marriage and, uh, life…took hold, didn’t leave much to spare.  So, I’m back! 

There is much to tell.  You’ve missed most of life since I met and married Justin.

Here goes. 

I lost my job.  Dumb bum deal.

I ran the Boston Marathon.

I ran another marathon six days later, Oklahoma City, and almost died.

I took the MCAT two weeks after that.  Again, almost died.

I traded stocks for a few months, experienced a load of stress and equity maintenance/T calls.

Wanted to scream and shout.

I got a part-time job.

I got a full-time job. 

Both with my degree.  I work at Shawnee Mission Med Center and Truman Med Lab.

Great career moves.  Lot of hours.

I work weekends.

I have suffered severe depression.

Been mad at God.  Been unforgiving.  Been seeking God in all the places I go.

Quit running.  Started again this morning.

Got poor.  Got my money back.

Have three dogs, chances to move.

Ran Hospital Hill.  Wished I had stayed in bed.

Sitting at work, wishing I were hanging out on the coast of somewhere majical and distant.

Love summer, gonna miss most of it for the sake of, ugh, adulthood.

I wish I were a kid again.

I’m afraid of having kids.

Michael Jackson died.  That’s the Elvis event  of my day.

Saved by the Bell return?  Nah, keep it in the ’90s please.

Going to try to try  out for American Idol.  Got a GREAT voice, still.

Joined Junior League (jlkc.org)

Miss Springfield like it’s nobody’s business.

Racing a 5k tomorrow night.  Might wanna hang around for that one

On to a new blog post.

There’s a lot to discuss, like:  The KRA BBQ, Iran-Contra in modern society?, Obama’s ruinous record, America’s recreation, all the races I still want to run (incl. Ireland and Paris marathons), my desertion by blood relation (do they still know I’m alive?, and the possibilities of moving back to Springfield; do I still want to try Med school?, the art of money management, what being married is teaching me slowly, virtue, good books, powerful things, adventure, a future, a hope, plans, dreams…..
