Manic Monday

OK I know this is Tuesday... but I was pretty busy yesterday and after catching up with my weekend posts I thought maybe I should spend a little time working. LOL yeah right! Actually after lunch Arland and I went to the Cingular store and he bought me a new phone as my Marathon present :) pretty cool.... I'm hoping my Yeah you finished a marathon present will be a new Ford Edge or Honda CRV... hint hint ;)

So yesterday morning I had to go to the bank. I walked in the door and a lady who walked in just ahead of me started coughing and hacking/ I immediately went into a little panic, oh no this place is going to be swimming with germs. etc. There were 4 people in line and I tried to stay as far away from that lady as I could, poor thing she probably thought I was crazy!! After a few minutes another lady walks in looking a little untidy and stands right behind me so I move up a little, but now I'm trapped between two suspect looking women who are probably harboring millions of germs... well then I look at the other people in line and they all look like germ harborers as well. Sheeessshhhh I started to get a little manic, my heart started racing, I felt a little light headed and inside my brain I was screaming get me out of here, I didn't realized it at first but I was tapping my foot like crazy and trying to figure out how to get out of there without being attacked by the million germs surrounding me. I was finally able to take care of my banking and leave before I went nutso in public!!

I've been reading about taper madness for months and now I know how it feels!!! LOL

I have been trying to convince my husband that I deserve a "Marathon present" and he isnt buying it. How did you do it ??? :)

You sound like ME! Ha. I avoided everything like crazy before my marathon in March. And I did everything the coach said TO THE LETTER.
