i found the rhythm, baby..

At long last, the rhythm is with me. Hail the lord, i can run now! We went for the 10K practice after office - i know, we are such brave souls, 8 hours of office and we still had enough energy left to run!! And today, my organs stayed in their respective places and i ran for about 6K. Our ploy (?) is to run for 5 minutes, walk for 5 minutes - basically alternate between walking and running. We completed 10K in 1 hr 35 minutes today. Needless to say, i am brimming over with pride. Just two days away. And we will find out just how much will power we have. We have changed our goal from completing it to not being the last one to complete! Talk of ambition!

We will go for dosa after the run! It would be like the carrot at the end of the stick. i will run with thoughts of masala dosa, vegetable pakoras and lassi - i think that should be enough motivation to make me complete the run.

i had to get up at 8 for a meeting - who the hell schedules a meeting for 8 in the morning?! i managed to get up on time, logged in from bed and attended the meeting. Bleary eyes, tousled hair and my early-morning-still-asleep, wanne-be husky voice! The meeting lasted for 19 minutes! So i went back to sleep and got up at 9! And struted to office! i am a peacock (actually, a peahen! But are peahen vain?) with a laptop!! :)

i have been having ilish for 4 days straight! i love ilish - i can have ilish for breakfast, lunch, dinner and maybe midnight snack! Ilish - if i were a fish, i would love to be an ilish mach - silvery, tasty and with lots of bones to irk people!

i need to make my shopping list - shopping is so boring. i hate shopping. i would rather run 20k than go shopping.
