Heat wave in Minnesota
It got up to 30 today. As a measure of just how freaking cold it's been the last couple weeks, 30 degrees made me feel like running in shorts. But I stuck with my good ol' Minnehaha Marathoner greenies. The club ran in our centipede costume in the St. Paul Winter Carnival 5K this morning. We had a full contingent of 13 heads and 26 feet, and completed in a blistering 42 minutes. We burn up a fair amount of time surrounding police officers stationed on the course and giving high-fives to the runners coming back in the opposite direction. Steve stayed in bed. He woke up to his own personal morning pukefest, triggered by, a) the scallops we had for dinner, or b) the copious amount of wine we had at dinner, or c) some kind of evil-but-brief stomach flu. He seems to be better this afternoon. At least he's talking about what we'll have for dinner tonight.

Lordy. Seafood and centipedes. No wonder Elvis yakked. I'm glad to hear he is better. What DID you guys end up eating tonight?
Remember those two-inch long centipedes in our basement growing up? Now that I remember them, the thought reminds me of the smoking, coffee room aliens of Men in Black.
