I must be insane

My friends won't be surprised by the title. I always do things they consider insane such as marathons and cycling from Houston to Austin (about 160 miles for those who are not familiar). I don't think that from their point of view that they are necessarily wrong from their point of view. If I step outside of the activities that I choose to engage in, I can see why they may think that. This is not the reason that I give this post the title.

I must be insane because I have agreed to join the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo's Carnival Ticket Sales committee yet again. Last year when I was going through my rookie year I swore I would never do this again. It had to be one of the more painful events of my life. I am not the best salesperson and I don't enjoy it so I procrastinated almost until it was too late. I managed to make my quota and surpass it somehow even with my late start. I'm not really sure why I'm doing this to myself again and this time I'm busy training for a marathon too. I really must be insane!!

However, if anyone lives in Houston and wants carnival tickets, bbq admission tickets, or would just like to make a donation to send underpriveleged kids to the carnival let me know. I am carnival ticket sales chick again this year!
