running in circles.

is really really boring. I got up at 6:15 this morning to meet my friend/running partner. We were going to go to a paved trail and get a run in. . Apparently neither of us were feeling it because she said, "Do you want to go to the lake instead?"  Me: "ha ha, yes, i was going to ask you the same thing". The trail we run is about 30-40 minutes away.. We drove the 1 mile down to the lake (We shoulda just ran down there), we made it 2 laps around the lake and were done. pathetic. Our run was 2.59 miles, in 24:25.. not a bad time. I just couldn't go around that stupid lake one more time. It seemed like it was taking forever, I couldn't get into a good rhythm and I couldn't get my mind off the fact that we were running in circles.

We have a 10k next weekend. http://www.youreventconsultant.com/cypressgardens/2010-RacePressRelease.pdf      My first 10k race. . I know I can do the distance, but my runs have been few & far between. I'm "hoping" this week will be better. I only work 5 days, instead of 6 this week! Woohoo!

Speaking of work: Boy oh Boy. The economy is bad you say? You wouldn't think so the way we are plowing through receptionists. I don't even know what number we are on since November 09.. more then 10, I promise you that. Yesterday was supposed to be an easy day for me ; I was going to complete some stuff I haven't been able to do because I play the roll of receptionist during the week. Everything is going great, or so I think. No altercations with patients, it was a really quiet morning actually.. I go to lunch at 11:30. Come back around 12.. Weekend receptionists says she is going to step out, she is going to go to Tropical Smoothie to get a Smoothie.... 10 minutes later she calls and says she's not coming back. me: today? or ever...  her: Ever.. me.. Uhm, okay. Bye.

What happened you ask? I have no idea. Just when she was about to start working Saturdays by herself. She was going to be on her own the first weekend in May, and I was going to be off Saturday duty.. wrong! My 6 days weeks are not going anywhere any time soon, and my work is not getting closer to getting done-

I have a pork shoulder in the crock-pot right now & it smells SOOOOOO good! I can't wait to pull that baby apart, drown it in BBQ sauce and have a good ol' pork samich, mm mm mm!

Alright, I have to go do some more homework!
