yesterday morning i ran with my friend in the morning and planned on taking a nice, evening hike up the Y.
and then the snow came.
and then sun.
and then wind.
and then hail.
and then snow.
the entire day went like this in my head: stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, goal.
how was i going to do this in the rain/snow/sleet/wind? and as we live RIGHT under the mountain all day long it taunted me. it taunted me in the morning taking out the trash. on the drive to the store. on the drive home. out the girls' window while putting them down for naps.
"annnnnnnnnnnnnnnie"
"yes mountain?"
"did you forget about me?"
"no, i'm still coming"
"good, because i haven't kicked your trash yet today"
"i know, i know" sigh
and so, i strapped on my trusty camelback and headed up the mountain. and suprise, suprise, i did it! and strange, but all 4 days this week of hiking i have been completely alone, and i really like it.
*note to self* if you hike the Y again on a friday evening, the parking lot will be full of pimply faced teenagers in steamy parked cars. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
