Lazy Blogger

Sometimes blogging feels like a chore, don'tcha think? But I expect others to keep their's up fairly regularly, so I'd better hold up my end of the bargain.

Let's play catch up.

Two Friday's ago I was stuck on a stinky bus, in the Lincoln Tunnel, for nearly 3 hours. During that idle time I made a promise to myself that I would not have to go into Manhattan, at all, until Monday morning. Not long after this, Norm calls me up and has decided that he is going to run a half marathon in Central Park the next day, with no training. Needless to say, I did not get to stay home. But, I'm so glad I went to see Norm accomplish something that is so daunting, to me anyway. Here's a video at the finish line -- poor thing ran right out of gas with about 200 feet to go :) I'll just repeat though, he did not even train for this 13 mile race.







And about a month ago we took a little day trip to Princeton University. I had no idea that Princeton was in New Jersey until I borrowed a tourist book from the library. What a cool campus and town! I told Norm to look "presidential" in this picture, given the huge pillars.

Princeton is super old.

You are SO lazy Rach!!! Why didn't you get out there and run that thing next to your husband?!?! (don't even try to use the whole "pregnancy" thing either) You're such a wuss.

***Seriously though: What is WRONG with these people? Why does anyone want to do this? I whine if I have to park and walk farther than the third spot at the grocery store.
