Iron Girl - babeee

So I have been doing Boot Camp (on/off) since May. Quite frankly, my booty has been camping on this chair a little long so I am stiff again from FRIDAY'S workout! Ridiculous...anyway, we have a race in November on the 14th: Aflac Iron Girl in Tempe, AZ.


I am looking forward to it. It's a 10 mile or 5K - since I took the summer off I am only going for the 5K (3+ miles). I am hoping it will add to my confidence with my running skills. I have improved SO much but that doesn't say SO much considering I really SUCKED it up at running prior to my boot camp soiree.
However, I have begun to really enjoy it and do plan on making this 5K the first of many 5Ks, 10 Miles, 1/2 Marathons, and Marathons to come. I would like to be ready for the 1/2 when PF Chang comes to town but I truly do not know if I will be ready in time. I'll play it day by day and see where we end up.


I am so excited!! YAY!

Don't believe everything you see

Saw this pic on Post Secret and is it just my imagination or is it subliminal (or not so subliminal on purpose) - that her "dress" looks like a man's genitalia? The subtext of the post card was sexual so obviously I'm not the only one seeing it. Yea?

DC...It's pretty but the politics SUCK!

Read this article on CNN about Obama's speech where he claimed he was talked about like a dog? He was not my first choice; anyone reading this blog in the past knows I was looking for a female persuasion. Anyway, despite the rough beginnings known as the Democratic Primaries I was going to be positive. I didn't turn my back on the party.

After 18 months I hang my head exhausted with all the bullshit...SAME OL' BULLSHIT! I have been very disappointed in this admin. and the party as a whole. They have been an ultimate embarassment and a comment in the "comments" section (go figure) said it far better than I would ever be able to articulate:

What is it about Washington that distracts whomever goes there? I've been disappointed lately with my fellow democrats because we sound and act just like everyone else. Promise, spend, argue and blame! How about doing what we were sent to do...create a new culture in which we actually get something done. Historians will rightly take us to task since we didn't do what we promised even though we owned the town at the time.

Wow, that blue dress incident just doesn't seem like that big of a deal anymore, does it? Politics, the biggest joke humans ever created. Can we get them ALL out of office, PLEASE!

Missed biz opp

So we were discussing Sexting at work today. And of course I was goofing off about how much easier this generation has it with their technology. They don't have to buy expensive polaroids or worry who's developing their goods. They just use their cell phones and send them directly out to whomever is the chosen recipient.

Then I got this brilliant idea (about 10+ years too late).

Snap N Send Photos with the tagline:
We don't peek!

Could have had a lot of fun marketing that one! ....hm, seemed funny at the time.
