Feeling drafty? That's because hell just froze over. After gentle prodding from [livejournal.com profile] afrikate and a pledge of support from [livejournal.com profile] uschickens I have just signed up for this. Not the walk the run. It will be my first race. Right now I can do 3 miles at a 12 min. mile pace (or 2 miles at an 11 min. mile pace). I need to do 10 miles at a 14 min. mile pace or they'll kick me out. This seems doable, but still a little scary (ambitious?). I guess this is what they call incentive to go to the gym.

In other news life is okay. I'm working the GAHA (graduate art history association) booksale this week. Yesterday we made $250, yay!

Tomorrow is the last day of classes and my final is Saturday morning at 8am. It should be fine, but my final grades have to be in Monday at midnight so this weekend will be grading heavy.

Fabulous dinner tonight at Gua Rapo for [livejournal.com profile] cmshaw's and [livejournal.com profile] ellen_fremedon's birthdays! I tried ceviche for the first time. It was tuna and very very yummy.

Last weekend's treasure hunt was awesome! I can not explain the awesomeness of running around the mall figuring out clues and ducking into museums. We're definitely doing the Quest for Edgar's Gold in Baltimore in January and perhaps this next summer?
