For My Homegirl

I did a little road trip recently last weekend, it was great. I love driving long distances, because it gives me an excuse to make great mixtapes, and listen to them uninterrupted for hours. On this recent roadtrip, I actually resurrected some old mixtapes, which made it even better. It's so fun to listen to all my favourite songs from a few years ago.

I was going to make a big, shiny blog post dedicated to my awesomeness at compiling roadtrip mixtapes. Actually, I thought I'd share some of the awesome roadtrip mixtape tracks from those old CDs (2003-2004 vintage) I was listening to in the car on the weekend.

Until I was reminded that I am a bum who drives long distances, while my homegirl is a legend who runs long distances instead.

Personally, I don't want to use my legs when I have a perfectly useful motor vehicle. But some people like using their legs, and my homegirl is doing a roadtrip of her own this weekend, in the form of a half-marathon.

I am so humbled by her innovation to use her body for something more useful than just sex and eating, that I want to dedicate a little blog post to her.




here's a little mini-mixtape for those who like to run. Yep, it's a tacky little taster...

Yay! Thanks heaps. :-) I do sometimes feel like I'm on a road to nowhere when I'm out running - particularly when I do loops. ha ha.
