I’ve been swimming for so long that it’s not fun anymore. Every once in a while the water calms enough for me to take a couple of strokes in what seems like the right direction. It’s hard to know though, when you can’t see a shore anywhere. It’s been a long time since I felt like I was making any progress. I’ve just been treading water lately. And now it feels like the undertow’s got me. I don’t want to drown, but there’s something so seductive about the idea to just let go.

What I really want right now is a cigarette.

Lets see if I can stick with it this time.
3 days a week. MWF. Once I can comfortably do a 5k, I’ll move up to 10K. Then a half-marathon, then a marathon.

Me: "You should take a dictionary"
Him: I would but I can't get out my phone in class.
