RACE IN ONE DAY.

[ladibug21]

The universe decided to give everyone a final kick in the ass at the end of the day yesterday by firing my favorite coworker. My favorite crabby, hilarious, 64 year old coworker. I just can't believe it. I'm in a sort of shock about it. I guess I sort of see why. She was stubborn as hell. I know they were asking her to change the way she does things, but jeez. She's 64. Couldn't they have just waited for her to retire and let her leave with some dignity? I hope she's OK. I will give her a week or so before I call her. I will really miss sitting next to her all day.

After that, I just decided I'm at my max. I can't take anymore bad news. I know it's playing with fire to make a statement like that, but it's true.

On the happy side of things, my sister's kitty is gonna be OK. He's going to need a lot of special medication and treatment for awhile to heal his liver, but he's going to make it.

It's raining today for the first time in awhile. It's inconvenient because I need to go out for a final run and bike ride in preparation for tomorrow, but it will stop eventually. I am ready to race tomorrow. I need to get off this computer and really prepare, but the biggest part of the work is done.

I am ready for fall. It is my favorite season. I am ready for cold days, my ugly sweater, excessive amounts of coffee to get through the dark 5 hours-of-sunlight-days, lots of listening to Belle and Sebastian, flooded basements, flannel pajama bottoms, tourists getting the hell out of town, my birthday, leaves, pumpkins, halloween, that fall smell.
