Sister Plus Coffee Kiosk
This morning I had swimming on my schedule but I was up until almost one AM doing various things so I didn’t expect I would feel like swimming at 6 AM. I was correct. I reset the alarm for 7 AM and started my day then. I have a chunk of free time tomorrow morning so I am going to swim then instead in addition to my planned run. I got ready for work and then had some time to kill so I did my knee exercises and knee stretches for about 25 minutes solely so I could cross them off of my giant typed to-do list. Then, and this is priceless, I went to the coffee kiosk where my sister and her boyfriend work. They had put aside a chocolate chip muffin for me they swore I had to try, plus I think they wanted me to see where they work. It was the most expensive muffin I ever had (they didn’t charge me but isn’t the unwritten rule that you’ve got to tip generously when your friends/relatives are the servers?!?) but watching my sister A) work and B) in a service industry in which she had to be pleasant to people early in the morning (we are a moody family)…was priceless. She is all grown up!! I am definitely going back next Friday morning to take pictures of her working. She will be completely mortified.
That’s kind of it. Work was good. Some friends are gathering for dinner and a movie at a friend's house. This should be a busy and fun weekend with some workstuff thrown in. I also have to decide what to wear to the tri which is NEXT weekend. I am buying nothing (else) new for it so I have some ideas on how to combine bathing suits/sports bras/shorts, but it is not going to be pretty.

In the tris that I have done I simply wore my bathing suit. I don't know what kind of suit you have, but I always had a very snug fitting speedo type suit that was supportive enough to run in. A few times I wore running shorts for the run, but I was actually most comfortable wearing a belt with the number on it. I had to borrow one from a friend, but it was easier to just run in the suit. I think that they cost like $8 but you can use them for regular ol' running races too.
