The Silver Lining

Maybe there will be cute, athletic boys in physical therapy that I can nurse back to health?

My eyes are too puffy for contacts right now but I look super cute in glasses.

I was really worried about GI issues in NOLA and not getting to eat all the delicious food.  Now I can eat beignets any damn time I want and not stress about smitting all over the course.

I really am the world’s best marathon cheerleader.  Ask Moxy or Christine or Kristy or Casey or Rach or Kate or Brenna or Tribander or some random bloggers.  I dominate cheering.  And now I can cheer on tons of friends!

I don’t have to worry about sleeping in New Orleans.  I can stay up ALL NIGHT LONG and harass people while they’re trying to rest.

Chicago is looking like my first full.  Hometown advantage?

Not running for a while will give me a sweet opportunity to drop a few pounds?  Will I seize this opportunity?  Who knows.  Eating like a marathoner is fun.

I’ve never felt so fiercely loved.  I woke up with one roommate in my bed and a note from the other in my bathroom.  These girls make everything okay. 

I’m going to use physical therapy as an excuse to wear leggings and a t shirt to work every other day.  Try and stop me.

Because I was too chicken shit to tell my coworkers about marathon training, I don’t have to explain to any of them that I’m not running New Orleans any more. 

I found a doctor that I like and have an appointment for a complete physical.  It’s time to stop avoiding them.  I’ve been proactive about my health for a while and I’m proud of it.  Shame about my former life as an obese person shouldn’t keep me from living the healthiest life possible.
