I'm a star!

Well, I will be!
Today, three M.A. Media students filmed me, running up and down, outside the university. Have I told you about this? They have a piece of work to do, making a 'documentary'. They chose my accident, and the fact of me running again.They filmed an interview with me last week (with several different cameras, one of them rolling around!)
; and then they came round to my house, to film me picking the girls up from school, and walking home with them.
They also wanted to film interviews with them, but I am afraid they have quite a bit of film of Lizzie, reading (which is what insisted on doing!); and iPhone film of Catherine playing with the 'real' camera! They came into one of my lectures on Friday, and filmed me starting my lecture.
And today, they wanted to film me running. It wasn't a proper run, at all. There were just lots of little spurts, then stops. "That was great. Can we do it again, but this time as a close-up". "Great. Now we need a different angle...".When I had that accident, in 2005, I didn't realise it was going to make me a star. OK, so it's made me 'blind', given me years of missing memory, made me talk all slurry, and given me bad balance. But hey, I'm a star!

They should put their (short!) documentary up on YouTube or similar next week. Shall I post the URL? I'll only do that if people want me to!

Gosh, I'm brave!
Woo! I'm VERY proud of myself. I went for a run at lunchtime, in the pouring rain. Remember, I wear glasses (as you can see in my lovely photo!), so I *hate*... -

*Almost* another PB! :-)
I was going to go for my first run of the week this morning. But it was throwing it down with rain. I figured that was going to last all day. But it...
