JENN: Did you run at all this week? MOON: Hmm, I think another mile? The progress is rather slow over here… JENN: Hey, that’s one more mile than a lot of people manage! MOON: Yes, but about 25 less than I usually do… XD I have been hunting for half marathons for the late summer, though! JENN: Any prospects? MOON: Hmm, there was one...

Two weeks ago, I did not run at all. AT ALL. The time had come. Pictured: Not running. Pictured: Still not running. Did I miss it? I hardly had time to miss it. Pictured: All the time I had. Since then I’ve had a couple good runs and a couple bad runs. I’ve pushed myself. I’ve barely eked it...

JENN: She repeatedly refused to go to the hospital, so...

But I had said to myself, today I shall run fifteen...

JENN: Let’s welcome back the one, the only, Perfect Traveling Companion, Elizabeth! ELIZABETH: Ta-da! You’ll spoil me with those comments. My ego is getting so inflated.

JENN: Would you like to start us off with your Grand Impressions of Israel? MOON: A gorgeous land of geographic contrasts. JENN: I’m assuming you didn’t run for fear of startling all the stray cats.

As outlined yesterday, I am CRAZY BUSY this week with rehearsals and performances of my ballet studio’s spring show. You try dancing around en pointe while wearing a giant foam seahorse on your head. Yup, I’m a seahorse.* The ballet is The Fisherman. It all makes sense in context, I swear! My point here is that regular blog posting will...

But never fear – I have every intention of roping her into a solo post soon, lest you all go into Moon withdrawal. That’s all right, I have things to tell you anyway....
