OK. I have no excuses whatsoever for not having blogged in i-don't-even-know-how-long. I guess that it's been a confluence of 2 things: (1) Facebook has become my blog proxy. (2) Work pretty much swallowed me whole this winter.
But now it's April and I'm almost human again.
So where do I start when it's been this long?
The big news around here lately is that I'm training for the Gold Nugget triathalon. That's right. Me. Doing a triathalon. Or trying to, anyway. It's what's called a "sprint tri", although nothing abt it seems "sprinty" to me -- 500 m swim --> 10 mile bike --> 4.1 mi run. Right now I don't know if I can do any one of those things, let alone all 3 together in rapid succession.
Today will be my first attempt at swimming in awhile, which should be illuminating. (Read: terrifying).
Mr. PurlInterrupted, meanwhile, is training for a 200-mile bike race, the Fireweed. Now who's the crazy one?
