If I were a super hero I'd fight.....

Migraines.



That is my official diagnosis after seeing the neurologist on Friday. What a weird character she was. So nice and helpful - but might be the most socially awkward person I've met. She walked into the room where I was sitting with Sam. Her first question? "How do you know each other?". What? You mean, my husband? It just got weirder and more awkward from there. Thankfully Sam held his tongue. Although, I'm sure any of his regular jokes would have crashed and burned anyway -she was  not the joking kind.

I got meds, taking them every night, and I already feel better! Still slight headaches, but nothing like I was getting. On the way home from the appointment Sam was going on and on about "I can't believe the Dr. didn't laugh at my joke...." Man, she was the weirdest!

So, the plan now that I know what's wrong with me and I'm on the mend????

Training

I've got my first race planned: rock n roll 1/2 marathon in DC. Training starts Dec 26th, which means I need to get ready. Yep. Train to be ready to train. It's a crazy world I live in here. The best part? Sam is going to run it with me - his first 1/2 mary! LOVING that!

Any great races in the Virginia area I NEED to have my training schedule for 2012?
