HUSBAND BEWARE, YOU’RE IN FOR A SCARE… PART 1

WELL, MAYBE!! Okay, sooo I admit, I can be just a tad bit superstitious sometimes and/or make big deals about stuff that’s silly. After all, my blogger tagline is:

Personal confessions of a twenty something drama queen.

So don’t you forget it!! Haha, kidding!! Just think… this time next year, my tagline will be different (well maybe) Eeek!! Because, HELLO, I’ll be 30! That’s crazy to say out loud!! I still can’t believe that my sister is 32 now! Yep, she just turned 32!! Wow, when did she even turn 30? It was just the other day, right?! Well, apparently not! 2 years blew past like a crazy thunderstorm and I’m left pondering where time went. Does it go and hide somewhere or what? I wish because then I’d bait it out with a piece of chocolate cake or maybe even a blueberry scone. Do you think Time likes blueberries? Hmmm…I hope because I have plenty of them in my refrigerator.

Can you believe I’ve known my husband for 10 years??!! Oh, by the way, our 4 year wedding anniversary was August 14th!! It was a great time! Remember, I was in that ahhhhh, I’m too stressed to post mode back in mid- August. Anyways! Whoa baby, I’m like totally freaking myself out now!! It has been a wild, twisty 10 year ride, but I gotta say, I love him! Honestly, I do!! We’re definitely a peanut butter and (grape) jelly kinda couple (well, peanut butter and strawberry for him). Check out why:

#1: We’re always stuck together (we do everything together),

#2: We definitely have our salty (peanut butter)/sweet (jelly) moments, but the salt is few and far between,

#3: People just can’t get enough of us!! Like yeeeeah, we’re cool, ya know, what every kid wants in their lunchbox!! Hehe!!

Yaaay!!! But back to the title (Husband Beware…)! The past two Wednesdays, excluding today (hopefully), there has been something scary happen to me. Okay, so last week I was at the dog park with Marc (my husband) and Prince (my Italian mastiff) aaaand…

Imagine this. Last Wednesday, Prince was having a blast at the park, you know, runnin’ raggid with his crew (a.k.a. pack of dogs) when all of a sudden the pack (including Prince) decides to switch directions in the middle of their play and run towards me at full speed. Well obviously, that was scary for me, but obviously they didn’t flatten me like a pancake because um, I’m here typing this post! That’s a good thing I guess! I don’t know many people that wanna be a pancake! I know I sure don’t!! Yep, SO Prince (Mr. 125 pounds) is in full sprint mode, racing his friends, ready to clobber his competition, but hint, instead of clobbering his competition, he clobbers ME! Prince is such a klutz. I mean seriously, he trips over EVERYTHING!! He’s SO much like Scooby Doo!! It’s usually kinda funny, but was less than desirable (let’s face it, I was mad) last Wednesday. He stomped on my right big toe mound so hard that I wanted to scream, kick, and cry (but I didn’t)!

I tried NOT to panic (although my big toe mound looked grossly swollen and out of place) , but then I whimpered when my husband said:

We’re going to Patient First NOW!!! I think Prince just broke your toe!!

I had to get x-rays and the whole nine yards, but as it turned out, it wasn’t broken, just severely bruised. I have to say though, it wasn’t that comforting to have the x-ray lady tell me how bad it looked… I wanted to scream, HELLO, I’m wearing a tank top that says, Run Fast!

Grrrr…Don’t scare this runner…I have a half marathon October 5th!!

To sum it up, I had to wear this uncomfortable boot for a few days (riiiight…that’s what I did…more like, run 6 miles the next day…shhhh…) and wish that Dr. Marshall, my doctor (THE MOST awesome doctor in the world), was opened 24 hours a day because as it turns out (or as my husband told me), I’m not so good with the whole injury thaaang (he didn’t say it like that). I guess I don’t like change, meaning I like to be around people that I know, trust and love, especially when I’m going through something scary.

On a happy note, I ran 9 miles today (with lots of hill work)!! Awesome!! Have a fabulous day!! Happy Wednesday!! Hehe!! XOXO!!

This was my foot the next day…
