Disappointed :-(

For the 2nd time in 2 weeks Wayne, Matt and I have been denied a house. this time is was much worse though. Tuesday night after work, Wayne, Daria and I headed over to the house and checked it out. the house was really bad ass, had planty of room, was in a great location and the price was good. We ended up signing the lease and giving the landlord our personal info so she could check us out. She signed the lease then said if everything checks out we'd get the place.

I talked to her Wednesday to setup an appointment to drop off the deposit, she said that she was busy that night but we could meet on Thursday. I hadn't heard from her by 11:30am yesterday so I called her up, guess what she said???? Sorry I haven't called but there is a woman who's interested in buying the house and I'm going to check out her credit information and if she's good then I'm going to sell it to her.

Needless to say I was pretty livid at this point, she said she'd call me back by 5pm, so at 5:30 I call her up again and she says "I feel horrible but I'm going to sell it to the other woman who wants to buy it". So now we're still looking.

I keep telling myself that it means we weren't meant to have this house and that we'll find something better, hopefully that's the case :-)

Recovering

This past weekend was a good time, there was lots of drinking and eating saturday followed by lots of sleeping on sunday. A good time was had by all, ranging from drinking and eating, to standing on top of a pile of dirt at a construction site, to stealing street signs on the light rail, good times!!!

Insanity Part II

So due to some active.com issues the registration for the Pike's Peak Marathon on the 1st had to be re-done at 6:30am this morning. I was online at 6:28, logged into the site at 6:32 and was done and registered by 6:37. I called Josh up and he said he was in and registering, so I hopped in the shower and got out Josh was on the phone again, said he was getting an error message and he couldn't register. He went back to the main page and the marathon was full.

So here I go again, training for and running my 3rd marathon by myself :-(

Insanity

So I've been wanting to do another full marathon lately and have been trying to get my friend Josh to do one with me. He's wanted to get back into shape and I've wanted to train and run a marathon with someone so after talking to him for a while we have decided to run one of the most difficult marathons around, the Pike's Peak Marathon!!!!

Essentially we start at 6,000 feet in elevation and run for hopefully 4 hours up to the summit of 14,000 feet then back down!!!! It's definitely going to be the biggest physical challenge of my life so far and possibly the biggest challenge I'll ever do!!!!

Here's the link to a very detailed description of what we'll be going through in August;
