After a couple of years of perusing blogs (and an evening of goading) I've decided to join the unread masses. That's right, like all good things, this is the product of verbal abuse (from this kid). So, read at your own risk. Feel free to direct any negative comments here. Ok, on to the blogging.

In the spirit of dares, I made a very ill-considered wager this evening. I have bet a rather healthy friend that I will beat her in a 10km running race on Labour Day. I've been looking for a reason to get in shape, and this seems like a good one. I'm no athlete, but I hate losing more than Jesus hates sinners. So, if nothing else, I'll have my training or slacking to talk about here.
