settled

the barn has finally been setup, minus the flooring, which buckdaddy still hasn't finished. But the roommates received a bonus for the inconvience and dined out Japanese style by the capital. It was pretty awesome and the waiter was really cool.

My room is still... small. I'm already calling it, El Fin de Den or the Last Den. Large plans are still in the making for a loft and desk, both designed and fabricated by me. It looks like my job is ending prematurely due to gov't funding, but I'm working on extending it a bit longer. Although, this is giving me ample time to draw plans for my room.

Still feeling a little out of place in Madison though. Student status, and all the perks that come with it, have ended. Kind of feel like I should move on, though, I have to come back in January.

I have 9 weeks till my marathon as of 2 days ago. It's hard to pick a date to stop the nightlife, but it's way sooner than later. I'm pushing for Sunday right now. I figure it will give me a solid 8 weeks of pure, healthy training. I have a better outlook on all of my activities when I'm keeping in shape and eating correctly. So the break should also help with keeping the good times rollin. The Echo Tap will just have to wait till Halloween.
