Valentine’s Day. Please don’t say “Valentimes”

Dave’s Mug…

You know you’re getting old when this is a gift to your husband, but- hey- it’s the truth.
No matter how long the aisle, I’ll always run down it- as long as you’re there.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

P.S. A customized pound of designer chocolate was included in this mushy-mug-gifting… it wasn’t all a loss for Dave!

The Author
Michelle Martinka

In brief…

A 12 year smoker- proud to be a quitter, who used a pair of 2 year old cross-trainers to break the habit, going cold turkey in June 2010.

While driving hubby (the infamous Dave from BSharp, PVD) to the brink of divorce, I ran at all hours- day and night to avoid the calling of the Marlboro Man (menthol lights, please).

Yes, sleeping in running shoes is gross.

Save-the-world complex. Lips dripping with satire, brow with sweat.

If you need to know more, all you have to do is ask. The worst anyone can ever tell you is, "no".

...and if you live knowing that "no" means "try harder-change your pitch", you'll be just fine- if not totally annoying.

How can I describe the author "in brief"? Not totally possible, but let's take a chance:

I blog to inform, update, stay on the wagon, help people onto a path, explore myself, get back to writing and to keep from public rants. Whiskey Sours, Velvet Snakebites, Draak, Delirium or Ace Joker Hard Cider win my heart- every time someone says "literally" or "journey" on Biggest Loser- I drink. I'm from Philadelphia, and sometimes I miss it so much I feel it's destroying me... or maybe just Rhode Island is not ever going to be the place for me. I enjoy grammar and mocking people for their lack of understanding of the English language- but we all make mistakes. I miss my father everyday. 5/26/49-4/21/1998. I used to be a drummer, but that ship has sailed. I don't want to cuddle you, or be your generic little spoon. I want to dominate and eviscerate. Grinding coffee gives me pleasure- good coffee is hard to come by. I'm rough everywhere- not just around the edges. I am the bitter truth coupled with total loyalty. If you can't handle the heat, get the hell out of my kitchen- I love spicy food. I listen to music to make me laugh and cry, and finish a 10-miler in the sleet or blinding heat. I can fix almost anything. If you think your lack of contribution will save the animals, do yourself a favor and enjoy a steak. I always use too much detergent. I love to tell people I'm a runner, but, in truth- I'm just a Worth (maiden name), which means everything I do, I do at 110%- So yeah, I'm a runner. I got married 08/02/2009 to the most patient, loving and understanding man... and he's a musician- swoon. I'm overly passionate about Philadelphia sports. I throw up at almost every race- I hate nerves. My bike is my best friend, and it leaves me stranded with flats all the time (<3 Jetter). I want to have babies. I want to have a million dollars in the bank. But mostly, I want runners, bikers and drivers to get along- and to be happy!

Lace up. Man up. We're going on an adventure... or, at least, a long run.
