Good timing on the IM - what a way to let your hair down. I'm doubting the wisdom of starting training in December ;). Let us know what's next soon?

Also the framed collage - you have some amazing friends.<br /><br />Enjoy the next few weeks. Thanks for the tip about 'The Mission' - will keep it in mind if I ever get back to San Diego :)Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18623487.post-15903575329064736682009-12-10T17:53:23.830-08:002009-12-10T17:53:23.830-08:00Isn't the title of this post "Coookie Tim...Isn't the title of this post "Coookie Time Pictures?" I was expecting to see festive sugary treats and all I got was a bloody, festering wound. Thanks.<br /><br />Kidding. You have such a supportive crew in your life-you are one lucky girl (even if one of them takes pictures of you sleeping...) I am so happy for you that this whole thing is over and that your life is back to normal. I felt the same way this fall and enjoyed every single minute of it. Then I fucked it all up and signed up for IM. I will now live vicariously through you and your MUCH deserved down time :)<br /><br />P.s. we went down to the finish after Amy's race too-it is such an emotional, inspiring place. <br /><br />Congrats, again!KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14000274933357972123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18623487.post-80508250866866599882009-12-09T17:12:01.913-08:002009-12-09T17:12:01.913-08:00Love all the pics & really enjoyed our time wi...Love all the pics & really enjoyed our time with you.
