Racing a Bus

So Mindy and I went running this morning and I was on my way home running down Maule and on the corner were like 20 kids waiting for the bus. Just Great. So I'm on the road trying to think if I can get around them but I can't and I'm trying to not think about or hear these kids when I hear the bus coming up behind me. I can't get on the sidewalk, there's lots of kids, and so I'm stuck on the road trying to sprint to avoid the bus which is coming up fast on my rear, slowing down but wanting to go where I am. Crap!! So I sprinted probably 200 meters past the bus-waiting kids and feeling like a total retard. I hate running during school bus time.

I hate running by the bus stops too!! Sorry I bailed on you early in the run, we could have raced the bus together. ;)

Just a little shout out...WO HOO for you and your sweet house news. Fun to see you the other day. I loved Vaughn and Evan's little WWF session.

Hey I found your blog! Okay, so I didn't realize that you were Vaughn's mom. :) My son Spencer is in his Primary class and talks about him a lot, so it is nice to make the connection!
