This is a picture of "Sunday night Sara" in my typical PATS baseball hat and comfy attire. Sitting in front of my giant monitor writing this blog post for ya'll. The only thing is...I have drastically changed overnight and I am still in shock.
I attended a friends Christmas party last night and I was even in the holiday spirit. I put effort into my hair, rocked an Olivia Newton-John inspired outfit, leather pants and all. I made my grand entrance with my corona and a bottle of wine for the host. I caught up with some old friends I haven't seen in a while and avoided the others.
After I made my way through the kitchen I decided to venture down stairs where everything quickly went south. All of us ladies were complaining about shopping and talking about who is stressed out more. At that point the craziest thing ever happened. I was told if I keep running so much my Blossom Opossum was going to fall out. I am not sure who was more shocked my friend Jim standing to my left or me?! This is by far the scariest thing I have ever been told in my life. I mean I am a single woman who absolutely needs my Blossom Opossum more than ever. All my married and slightly mean friends began to point and laugh at me. The fear I began to feel was real. I always considered running to be a healthy form of exercise and had no idea I was taking such a gamble. I looked around the room for all my fellow female running friends and felt they needed to know about this immediately. It then dawned on me the amount of people that drive by me during my daily runs will be potentially at risk to see this devastating transformation. How would I be able to show my face around here and well news flash I am kinda a big deal?! This was all just so much for my brain to digest. I started to think how much I will miss by Blossom Opossum and if it falls out where would I then put it?
So this morning while I would typically go for a long run I decided against it. I went for a long hike in the woods instead. It gave me time to really weigh my decision whether I continue running which keeps me sane or I say good-bye to my Blossom Opossum. Just when I think life can't get any harder this is thrown at me. Life is such a game of give and take sometimes.
