Ok. I love Tron. There. I said it. In fact, I love it so much that I downloaded the soundtrack to it and it is all I listen to. I have the tendency to do this though. For instance, Alli and I once stayed up all night playing Lord of the Rings video games. It got to the point that we were both throwing up because we were so motion sick. Regardless, I love Lord of the Rings and that is just one example of how when I love something, I REALLY love something. Another example is how I saw Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl 8 times in the theater. 8 times people. For those of you that know me, you know I really dislike going to the movie theater so going 8 times for one movie is a big deal. The last example is INCEPTION. I just barely watched it for the first time and it is enough to drive me MAD. I mean am I dreaming right now, am I making all this up? GAH! Maddening.
I apologize for getting off track, the real reason I am here writing this post is to talk about Tron. More specifically Tron:Legacy. As I mentioned earlier, I have been listening to the soundtrack non stop and it is actually to the point where I am geeking out and pretending that I am Tron.
On new year's day I found myself in an all black "stretchy" outfit, listening to Tron, running around the Chambers bay golf course. I couldn't believe what a geek I had become but I couldn't help it. I threw pretend "electro discs" at Tyler and yelled "I fight for the users!!!" as I ran past him. The only consolation I had was that Alli was dressed up just like me and I know she wanted to do the same thing.
Anyway, we had a great run around the golf course and took lots of pictures. Ran into some people we knew (totally embarrassing) and got a really good work out.
That's why I like the soundtrack so much- it makes me run faster. And run for longer periods of time. Therefore, Daft Punk must win an Oscar for their score. It is awesome. I just won't have it any other way.
Why am I telling you this? Well Tron helps me because as one of my new years resolutions, I am training for a half marathon this year. And lets be honest, I need all the help I can get. I am telling you about this resolution so I will have some accountability to actually go through with it. So if a movie can make me run faster by inspiring to run like I am in the movie and if a soundtrack can motivate me to keep going... well then so be it. I will be a dork.

You forgot to include skipping rocks and how I had an audience watching me. Guess I'm that good.
