The Boxes plan to very a lot of the world over the next couple of months. For starters, Jenny has a 10-day trip to Philadelphia at the end of August to help with a couple of job fairs for ramp agents. At the same time, Mom and I are scheduled to go up to New York to see the opening round of the US Open, which will be Agassi’s last tournament. Then Jenny and I head out to Vegas in September for a few days. She’ll be working the LAS Spirit Party and another event, and I’m going along for the ride. Finally, to celebrate my birthday and the end of my MBA classes, we’re planning a Carnival cruise to the southern Caribbean in late October. Whew!

Half-marathon training is going well. I’m up to 12 miles per week and trying to increase it by a mile or so each week. I also joined Jenny’s gym, LA Fitness, to strengthen my muscles and swim a bit. I guess at some point I need to register for the race to make sure I don’t chicken out. =)
