blizzard of '06

18 inches of pure goodness. and yes, i went running in the middle of it. there is something blissful and quite lovely about running along the charles through 2-3 foot drifts, completely alone, passing only the occasional cross-country skier.





the pics are [top to bottom]: sidewalk near my apt, street (glad i don't have a car), the park near my place, and me and my faithful red hat.

our first Sojourn!

we had our first Sojourn "gathering" this past thursday! it was really good...we only had 3 students, but another 4-5 are pretty stoked about Sojourn too, and just weren't able to come. so 7-10ish students might sound small but it's huge. i was glad to meet the three...it's good to finally have some faces behind names. and it was especially good to just come together and have a "starting point" of sorts.

this coming week we begin serving with Starlight ministries, a homeless outreach. i am verrry excited for that...getting to talk and chill with the people of Boston Common. every wednesday. can't wait.

more later on all of that. i'll end with some numbers:

2: harvard wrestling meets i've attended within the past month. fun times, cheering on the boys from the MAC. i'm a fan...i mean, what's not to love? the competition, the intensity, the hot guys in singlets...

3: times i woke up last week thinking i was pregnant. yikes.

4: weeks until the Boston Run to Remember!!

12-15: inches of snow predicted for tonight/tomorrow. a true Nor'easter is on its way. :)
