Hi! I’m Kim, a 40-something-year-old living in northeastern Illinois with my husband Steven, and our cats, Khaleesi, Apollo, Starbuck, and Eddard aka Ned. My current main hobbies are running, painting rocks, flying, reading, and eating. I follow a vegan lifestyle and work in an account management role. I write about a variety of topics and consider this a “life” blog – a place I can share anything that’s on my mind. Please visit the “About” page to get a better idea of who I am! 🙂
YAY! YAY!! YAY!!! So exciting!
Awesome!! Congratulations 😀

I was really tempted to answer “Charlie Sheen” because he seems to be getting around. But I’m glad it’s you instead.
LOL. You crack me up! 🙂
Awesome! That’s incredibly exciting.
Excellent!!! We must plan a get together this time around. We can go to the expo and pick up our numbers together!
That sounds like fun!!! We definitely have to get together. And I may have to ask you for recommendations on where to stay. My sis said she wants to come with her bf, so I will have to find something not too expensive. Hmm…
Oh my gosh!!!! I can’t believe you got selected in the lottery. That is crazy. You should go buy a real lottery ticket now.
omg awesome, congrats!! 🙂 I didn’t make it but am honestly not too bummed about it. I’ll be there cheering people on!
Was this your first year trying to get in? Have you watched it before? I bet it’s a ton of fun!
SO exciting!!!
YAY!!!!!!!!! SO FREAKING EXCITED FOR YOU!!!
Whoop! That is exciting!
That is awesome! I have to be honest and say that I am a tad jealous b/c I did not get in but it’s super exciting for those that did!
What is your back-up marathon plan? 🙂
My back up plan is TBD. I know I want a late fall or early December marathon b/c the heat down here is insane and I can’t imagine “cranking” through 20 milers in the 90 degree heat!
I may have a viable contingency plan that I hate to even say but: I know a NYRR who may be looking to sell her bib and has given me dibs if she decides to(hate to post that publicly but it is what it is) AND my aunt is an athletic apparel buyer and her ASICS rep has told her that if she (my aunt) ever needed a bib to NYC that she would be able to get one. So…I hate relyng on others but my hopes are not totally dead yet. I wanted to go through the lotto though to try and avoid the above scenarios.
That is awesome!! 🙂
Hooray!!
AHH! Congrats Kim! So happy for you! that is so exciting!
SWEET!!!!
Hooray!!! And this means an excuse to get more bagels!!! 🙂
That is the main reason I want to go back!
(Okay, not really, but it’s high on the list!)
OMG!!!! That is so awesome that you were chosen!!!! I am so freaking excited for you!!!!
=^..^=
YAY!! That is so awesome! 🙂
AWESOME! I am jealous 🙂

I might be the only person excited NOT to get in!!!
OMG!!!! Yay! Someone I know virtually actually got in!! Yay!!!
Holy cow girl I’m so happy for you! Congrats!
Nice! I ran it in 2010 and it was so, so fun. It was a hard course for me but it’s like running through a giant party.
wooooooo!
I keep meaning to send you an email to say that I’m thinking of you. Just so you know 🙂 thinking all sorts of good thoughts. Even though I’m a huge failure at sending that email, please feel free to send me anything to chat, vent, escape, etc.
Congratulations! Wow – that is exciting!!!
Yay! How exciting! The marathon AND NYC bagels? You are a lucky girl! 🙂
ahh so jealous! I didn’t get in. In fact I don’t know ANYONE from Boston/MA who did in real life or twitter. I think they purposely left out the Red Sox fans :/ Congrats
whoo whoo! **high5**
