hanging with snow white.....

yep so i've been grumpy lately. er, ok so since i landed in Paris almost two weeks ago the sun has not come out tomorrow. moments of laughter have been few and far between and usually the result of an unfortunate incident - "man down" as we lose someone on the crowded city trains, "take cover" - as the coffee pot shoots sparks 2 feet into the air - probably due to our DIY electric rig up, "he's open" - as not one, but both of my team QBs (tennessee's crompton and Big Ben) fail to see open receivers down the field and instead find them selves making barely even pop warner caliber passes to no one in particular, "smokey!" as little black dog yet again grabs the hall pass and goes for a little jaunt around the neighborhood.

i did have a mojo finding experience during my brick last night that instilled just the tiniest bit of hope that this saturday will not be a total disaster. Despite the fact that i will be swimming in a size large wet suit - quite possibly all that extra neoprene will add to my buoyancy and allow me to glide thru the water.

but truly my life has been held to gether the last few days by strawberry yogurt. with pumpkin granola. its the one food i can have any time and its something i look forward to when i am away. silly to think something so simple can make me so happy.
