With a Thousand Sweet Kisses

I just came back from seeing "Rent"! It was *fabulous*! I cried so many times and just loved it! Since I've seen the stage production and have the cast recording memorized, I knew immediately what they left out (which were minor lines), but overall it was great. I loved how the director kept things dark and solemn and how the set was depressing (since the subject matter is depressing) and the company numbers were exciting. I could go on and on... but I'll spare you. I will say that when Jesse L. Martin sang, "I'll Cover You" towards the end, my make-up was running down my face.

I went running today. I went a bit over 14 miles (it might've been closer to 15, but I'm not too sure). Overall, I felt good. Here's the stats...

Distance: 14.5

Time: 3:30 (I forgot to stop my watch on the bathroom break and the water stop breaks)

Nutrition: Poor

Hydration: Poor

Boredom level: surprisingly low

Pain level: My right Achilles tendon (of course) was tightening up at mile 12, so I walked a mile. My knees started to ache towards the end. Now I'm just stiff (and was groaning when I went down 4 flights of stairs at the movie theatre)

Dead animals: None

Weather: Sucked. Humid, humid, humid

People I knew (besides running buddies): 2 - a teacher from my school and a college buddy

I'm going to take a nap now. Then I need to grade some papers (I must be productive for at least two hours tonight).

Tomorrow: theatre auditions!
