Books 43-46

43)Koenig, Karen R. RULES OF NORMAL EATING. Gurze Books: 2005.

44)Fagone, Jason. HORSEMEN OF THE ESOPHAGUS : competitive eating and the big fat American dream. Crown Publishers: 2006.*

*LOL....YES, I am aware of the incongruity of reading these two books one after the other! The first really clicked with me; I need to reread it more closely and apply the information into my own life. The second book was interesting to read, in an adversion therapy sort of way (hot dogs and hot wings never seemed quite so unappetizing), especially from my reader's pov as a disordered eater.

45)Kibler, M. Alison. RANK LADIES: gender and cultural hierarchy in American Vaudeville. University of North Carolina Press: 1999.

46)Bruns, Roger. DESERT HONKYTONK: story of Tombstone's Bird Cage Theatre. Fulcrum Publishing: 2000.**

** these two scholarly books were from my Dad's research shelf; I think it's cool we share some uncommon interests.

short distance/ big dreams

Looks and feels like there are storms on the way. I'm glad I got a short breaktime walk in. 2.5 miles.

planning:
Registration for the Harpeth Hills Flying Monkey Marathon (Nashville, TN) open August 1st at 8 am. The race is Nov. 22, 2009 and the field limited to 200. Last year, I volunteered at the race, but this year, I intend to be a finisher. http://www.harpethhillsmarathon.com/

The local Huntsville Rocket City Marathon is Dec. 12, 2009
Birmingham's Mercedes Marathon is Feb 12, 2010
and March 2010 will be the Delano Park run again....don't know if I'll really do them all, but it gives me something to keep after.
