Jolly Jaunt to support Special Olympics Massachusetts 2008

Hey guys!

Last night I finally got around to registering for the 2008 5k Jolly Jaunt to support the Special Olympics in Massachusetts.  It is taking place on Saturday, December 6th in Boston Commons (it’s going to be FREEZING).  Part of the deal is to raise money to benefit this great organization.  I’ve sent out some emails and posted a bulletin on myspace, and now I’m reaching out here.  If you can, I would really appreciate your support!  I made my goal low, but hope to exceed it!

Here is a link to my page:

Here is the standard spiel:

I’m participating in the 2008 Jolly Jaunt because I believe in the highly effective programs run by Special Olympics Massachusetts and I want to do something to help.  I have set a goal to raise money for my local-area Special Olympics athletes.  Special Olympics athletes never pay a cent to participate in any of the 26 different sports offered, so we are raising critical dollars to fund the year-round sports training and athletic competitions for athletes in Massachusetts with intellectual disabilities.

By running/walking or financially supporting the 2008 Jolly Jaunt, we can improve the lives of some very courageous and dedicated athletes in Massachusetts with intellectual disabilities and other closely related developmental disabilities.  Your donation will help to provide them with programs and services that will bring happiness and pride in all that they do.
Thank you so much for your support!

WOO WOO!!! IT’S THE DAY WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!  Just like Christmas, I woke up 30 minutes before my alarm.  And I had even set an earlier one today so that I could go for a run (which I just got back from).  WHAT A MONUMENTAL DAY!!!  The Married to the Sea today is quite funny:

And just for old times sake, and because I think it’s one of MTTS’s finest:

i hate voting

I’M FEELING VERY PATRIOTIC TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BLAH

OMG.  I am so so underwhelmed with life right now.  It feels like depression.  It feel A LOT like depression, actually, and the difference is that instead of wanting to die i want to LIVE.  I want to DO SOMETHING for once.  I’m just bogging myself down thinking about who I am, what I want, what I’m looking for, how I’m going to get there, how I’m going to make a difference…..

and I feel so alone sometimes, too.  That’s not entirely true, but it’s hard to explain.  I mean, I want to call up people (some specific people) and say, ‘AUGHHHH I AM SO UNDERWHELMED WITH LIFE, I NEED A JUMP START, A RESTART, A CLEAN SLATE’ but I don’t know what I’d want to hear back… something… and all the people I want to call and say this to are either far away geographically or emotionally….

what am I going to do?  go back to school.  try more.  try at all.  I just feel like I’m not even trying, but I don’t even know where to start.

“If you want to reach something in life
You ain’t gonna get it unless
You give a little bit of sacrifice
Ooohh, sometimes before you smile you got to cry”

ohh The Roots.
