• Movie: Eragon

    I got this one via Netflix well over a month ago. It has been sitting around because Caitlin and I were put off by the scenes/snippets leading up to the main menu. Those scenes alone prepared me for this endeavor, so nothing came as much of a surprise. This movie is pretty bad. It doesn’t even seem to hide the fact that it’s a…

  • Race: Virginia Run Turkey Trot

    Yet another race. I love this race, and the idea of racing on Turkey Day. In fact, this is one of the first races I did way back in the day. It’s now about quadrupled in size, but still a really well run event. Peaced out of the house at 5:30 with the pie I cooked last night, arrived, walk to the race, checked…

Rolled out to the ole Herndon Community Center, registered, sat for an hour, warmed up with my old friend Jason, and we were off. COLD AS… Really cold places… So cold I had no idea what kind of pace I was running. A bit in to…

  • An attempt to get back in the posting spirit

    The death of Smalls still has me down, I never really got back in to a routine since returning from vacation, and work/school have both been insane. I owe a vacation recap and some movie reviews. Today, I give you two videos to remind you there are special people out there… We aren’t them  Hello Youtubes!
