Commencement was on Friday. That was a very cool experience! I ran into a few old classmates walking at the same time, so we had fun cuttin it up. There were more graduates this year than ever before at TMCC. I wonder if they say that every year?
Over the past few months I have run a lot. I have done 5k, 10k, and 12k races including the Bay to Breakers 2009. This coming weekend I am running in the Reno Tahoe Odyssey relay race. There are 12 of us on the "Legends" team running a total of 178 miles. I am telling you this because... that's pretty fucking kewl!

I have jumped hea first into this running and I plan on doing the San Francisco half marathon in July and being ready for the San Diego Rock n Roll marathon next year. I love it! If you had told me I would be running these races a few years ago, I would have laughed, smoked another cigarette, drank another beer, and then I would have taken a nap LOL
Life is really, really good today. I think about where I have come from, and all the mistakes I have had to make to get here, and where I am going, and all the mistakes I will make getting there, and I smile. Because everything is OK. I have found that there are so many things in life that I can try, that I never have to go back to drinking, smoking, and doing some of the other stupid mind altering things I used to need to do. I will surely be dead before I can even come close to trying everything that there is for me to try in life. Life is the largest sampler plate of all, and right now I am sampling it all!
Oh yeah, I forgot that I am also planning a couple of sprint triathlons this summer. The distances are not all that great, but they sure do look fun. Where can I practice swimming? Any ideas?
Peace...
