there's a fine line between making people crazy and doing what needs to be done.

training for a marathon requires a bit of dedication. maybe you can't go to brunch at 9 but you can go at 10 but everyone is going at 9. do you go at 9 and try to run another time... or do you be a butt and go run, and don't do the group thing. and why is choosing to go run equated with being a butt? you can tell people over and over that you need to go to bed early or you need to run for 2 hours or whatever, but they're not going to remember. it's just not important to them. i mean, not to insinuate that other people are butts, but you know, you just remember things that are about yourself and you figure other people will take care of themselves. thing is, running is such an alone-thing that it comes off as selfish. maybe it's just the seat-of-the-pants way things operate in my world -- any plan is disruptive to my spontaneity.
