I'm pretty awesome
I ran this 5k the other day, and not only did I finish third in the whole stupid race, I got to meet the Bearenstein Bears!
The Bearenstein Bears were my favorite books growing up. I read probably every single one of their books, and they taught me valuable life lessons... None of which I currently remember. My mom claims she has them all saved up in the attic, ready to bust them out as soon as one of us sires a grandchild for her. Good luck with that, Mom.
Anyway, at the race, I must have seen ten or fifteen people get their pictures with the Bears. All of them were my age, so it comforted me to know I'm not the only one who gets nostalgic for their kids books.
