8:03 pmFarewell (possibly), Readers
Tomorrow, my 32nd birthday, may in fact be my last day alive upon this Earth.
For tomorrow morning I am running my first 5k.
And I haven’t really trained so much, except that I try to flex my abs while doing normal daily tasks (like drinking a glass of milk, or doing laundry)… to try to maintain some core strength.
And I tend to be sort of all-around lazy… like even when I write I use a lot of ellipses to show that I’m too lazy to finish a thought…
Plus, also, been known to hit what runners call “the wall” while covering the distance between my bedroom and the garage door. And my house isn’t even all that big…
So good bye, friends. I have already bequeathed my Star Trek Movie collection to my bff Diana, in the event that it seriously only takes 3.1 miles for me to kick the bucket. The rest of you can fight over my stuff by sending lots of inquiries and requests to Jon. He’ll like that. He’ll appreciate the correspondence in my absence. If you could make your letters really sarcastic and obnoxious — which is how I would write a letter — he’d probably really like that, too.
hugs and kisses,
Suz
xoxoxoxo
ps- In the event that I don’t die, I’ll post tomorrow with pics and maps and all sorts of fun stuff. Maybe. Or maybe not… cuz it IS my birthday, after all, and hopefully I’ll be out doing something fun. And being not dead.

I would agree that “(being not dead)” is a good place from which to start … having FUN!
(which is what I do hope that your special day brings you a whole bunch of … ’cause your writing brings bunches of fun to me)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I was gonna be really obnoxious and call you at 6 when my kids woke me up, but I thought that maybe that wasn’t so nice. Have fun today, and don’t die!

Happy Birthday Suz! Kudo’s (not sure if that is how you spell it) to you on the 5k. Good Luck!

Happy birthday, dear child. I know you are going to rock and not die at all. To my benefit, of course.
Have a great time…
(Oh, and if you have been shimmy-ing, you are developing core strength. And sassy dance moves.)

I’m a cheater. I already know that you didn’t die because I’m late to the party…
But, I have to tell you that I admire you for doing this. And on your birthday! I usually sit around declaring that I AM THE QUEEN and that everyone must serve me on my special day. I think you’re a little more evolved.
