No, Holbsy! More reruns! Please let her post more reruns. I'm loving them. And also I realized that I have NOT kept up my end of the deal, that is, I have not sent you anything funny or imaginative or day-brightening like I promised I would. Shame on me.

However, your use of precipitous delighted me. Especially since it really was nowhere close! Ha! I loved it! :-)

In Iowa, those traveling paperdolls are called Flat Stanley. Having now met Miss Flat Morgan, I am wondering if there are yet more names for them. Hmm.

Something to ponder in bed at night.

I don't know much about Flat Morgans, but I was a big fan of a little man called Flat Stanley. And, being a generation removed from Brooklyn living (and, flatly, a tourist incarnate), a BIG fan of Grimaldi's, though that is relatively unrelated to the 5k (impressive).

Dang, allergies and pregnancy just don't mix- nothing to do but sneeze, no good meds can be ingested to fix it all. I'm surprised to see that you weren't always a runner- you seem like a natural, you know, one of those annoying people who just go out for a 10 mile run for fun?!?

Was that the 5k that prompted you into runninghood? Just wondering, because I'm no runner, even though I like the idea of me BEING a runner. (Clear up until the time to start running, of course.)

My allergies are nearly gone (thank heaven! They started in April and ended roughly 3 months later! No thanks!). I hope your sneezing stops soon...

My little sister had one of those flat dudes except his name was Stan and she sent it to my sister who lives in Idaho. Puh-lease. I have to tell you that the Husband has been trying to convince me to move our family to New York because he lived there once and loves it to no end, but I can't imagine schlepping two kids and all their stuff along with my lazy arse to a place that doesn't have front or back yards, driveways, privacy, or sky. I will be reading with bated breath to see how things go for you. You'll probably prove me silly, and I will end up being jealous of you.

PS-Did you perchance major in English at a little school called BYU? If so then that would probably be while you look semi-familiar to me.

Wait, these reruns have not been a charming and well-planned way to hearken back to the beginnings of this blog, celebrating the return to the big city while keeping all of your new readers in the know? WELL!

Regardless, I like the reruns, mainly because you and the Holbs look like little kids!!!! Not that you look like old fogies now, but there's definitely a difference in the NYC Mr. and Mrs. and the Moscow ones. Ca-UTE!

Please, feel better - the dogs need their rest!!!!

Yeah for you! I am sure you are awaiting every moment to live in NY. I'll probably never be able to run though. In fact, I remember lying to my PE teacher in college and telling him I ran when I only half ran. Well bc I am lame like that and didnt want to get all sweaty.
