deltoid tuberosity

Life has stolen all of my potential energy lately and I like it. School has been really time consuming and should probably be given even more time, and I have been more physically active so I pretty much want to sleep all the time. I ran for a long time yesterday and felt like I could have kept going for a while so I'm thinking this whole ambitious marathon training might be possible, we'll see how I feel when school starts again...

I also have been trying to develop my relationship with my parents. I know I take advantage of them everyday and I am really lucky to be given something that people try and find all of their lives so I want to appreciate it more. At first talking to my mom was kind of hard, we often talked about politics because I have a bad habit of making fun of her for watching Fox News and those conversations never seem to go very well. Lately it has been getting better. Today I mentioned to her that after I graduate I am considering the Peace Corps and she didn't spaz like I thought she would. BIG suprise. My dad will definately spaz. Talking to my dad is a lot harder and even just being around him is hard but I am slowly getting better.

I have a yearning to create and think I will get on that soon. I plan on writing a letter later tonight to an elected offical and I think I am going to try and make a habit of doing it once a week, or at least once a month. The once a week thing is probably a little bit too ambitious.

I really don't have any cool statistics or anything useful to say like Laura. Sorry. Well actually in my english calss we had to read the Glass Menagerie by Tennesee Williams and I really liked the line,

Time is the longest distance between two places.

I mostly agree, mostly. But seriously, I think speaking of distance in terms of time makes a lot of sense.

Oh also my mom and I were talking today and she was telling me about some Hindu guy that was aparently a really big deal (I am so ignorant about the world it's not even funny) and how when he died his body took a really long time to decompose. It is believed that his body decomposed more slowly because his soul was so pure and he was so close to God. Saints bodies are also supposed to decompose more slowly. I thought this was pretty interesting and I want to read about it in the near furture.
