Physical Exertion: 5 hours after getting home from the airport, I left the house to run a half-marathon. I did pretty well considering the time issues, but I could've done way better. My heart rate was way too high for the pace I was running, and I think that's due to being so exhausted and completely unprepared the two days before. I'm glad I did it, though, it was fun.
Fire: I was heating up some food tonight in one of those foil trays with the cardboard-y top. I put it in the toaster oven and the top caught on fire. I unplugged the toaster oven and opened up the door to it and was greeted by some angry looking flames. I moved it forward so it wouldn't make my cabinets catch fire and I told Gwen to get the extinguisher. Luckily after a few seconds it burned itself out. Toaster, cabinets and most importantly, the food I was heating up were all fine.

Holy cow! Sounds like you've had a great few days. Did you get any running in at all while in China? I can't imagine having done all that traveling and running after a measly 2 hours of sleep!
I exercised indoors in China. The air was so bad that I wanted none of running outside.
that does sound like too interesting of a day! the rest of the week will be dull in comparison (hopefully!)
You did great in the half-marathon. I had my whole entourage with me, and I had a good time.
