Twitter: the Internet’s Happy Place?

Posted on Aug 14, 2009 in Babbling, Social Media

My friend Lori (@lj3000) is notorious for telling people, sometimes strangers, to find their happy place, and it is from her that I learned to just be positive.  Not being a naturally happy, positive, or optimistic person, it was a skill I had to learn; since acquring this new skill, I’ve noticed the negativity in the world even more.  But one place that negativity certainly doesn’t fly is on Twitter.

Wow, is it really Week 3 already?!

I feel like I’ve just begun, but according to the training schedule, I’m in Week 3 of training.  Geebus cripes.

Without a doubt, 26.2 miles still scares me… BUT today on my run, I saw a glimmer of hope.

Guess I’m running a marathon…

I’m doing that which I always said I wouldn’t.  But I guess I should’ve known it would come to this.  I’ve been inching toward it all along, and on December 13, those inches will turn into 26.2 miles.  Yep, I’ve decided to train for the Honolulu Marathon!!!
