Gingerbread doughnuts are really good

My mom gave me a box of dark, mini-hedgehogs on Monday and I am trying to save some of them for Michael but it's not going so well.
Today I had two Tim Horton's doughnuts and a small piece of ice cream cake and wigged out and ran four miles and then did 25 minutes of weight training while on a sugar high (then had crackers and cheese and hedgehogs for dinner).
This time of year.  Goddamnit. My daily weigh in is giving me anxiety attacks.  And why am I having a daily weigh in (oh let's be real: I weight myself every time I see a goddamn scale)?  Am I fighting GSP this weekend?
Anyways.  It's always fun to look up what you were doing this day last year and so here it is.  It's like time travel, but slower and with more scrolling.
Thoughts for this year?  Well, I won a marathon.  That was a big one.  I ran one of the majors: Chicago.  That was also a big one.  I saw Occupy Chicago and Occupy Montreal.  I almost cataclysmally derailed my life in the most spectacular fashion. I'm still waiting to see where chips fall.  I spent a lot of time in therapy.  I started writing a book that may or may not suck.  I ran on the treadmill a lot.  We sold Lasqueti and we went up there for one final family grieving process.  Skyhammer and N got married.  Po and A moved in together.  Another friend of mine got engaged.  C and his wife had a beautiful baby boy.  I was there to see a coworker and her husband run their first half marathon.  Another friend of mine got married.
People moved forward.  I moved sideways.
I ran on the treadmill a lot.  It's not bad, it's just that you don't get anywhere and it's a lot of work.

  1. What the hell is a hedgehog? I know what they are but are you actually eating small spiky animals? If so I'll pass, hand me a donut instead.

  2. If you ran on the treadmill, what the fck did I do?!!! I can't bear to look at this year.
    If anybody expects me to talk about what I've been doing in Japan this past year, this coming winter vacation, I'm just gonna sit there, stare, and dribble.
