“Moments before, we were mere mortals. Now, standing proudly in front of the mirror, checking to see that the number is straight and properly placed, we are warriors…Like all great warriors, we stand ready to face the enemy. In most cases, that enemy is ourselves.” -John “The Penguin” Bingham, The Courage to Start
Speaking French on the phone has never been the easiest task for me. I just called our contact about our apartment, and I stumbled over 2 sentences and my mind went blank at one point. At least she didn’t start speaking English to me like most Parisians do once they hear my accent. So, we’re all set to get our key at 13:00 at the apartment! woo hoo!
Toots, I’m jittery, too. I printed out our pace charts for our cheering section and it struck me that I’m actually running this damn thing. I might even be ready, and that is scary. heh. I keep trying to visualize me crossing the finish line with 3:55 posted on the time clock. We’ll see if it’s working. I’ll be doing homework all day today. That should calm me down immediately, if not put me to sleep. I guess if I don’t post tonight, this is it until we get to France. Oh, and hey, it’s snowing.
A bientot!
