Tendon Tuesday

Ok, it's really Thursday.  Get off me!

1.  I had the.greatest.run this morning!  I really haven't been running as much the past couple of weeks because it's been so ridiculously hot, but it was a lovely 82* this morning, so I strapped on the slightly blood stained shoes and headed out on a short, 3 mile tempo run.  It felt amazing!  My pace was probably the best I've ever done and I loved every second of it...even though I was pushing myself and it was a little hard at times.  It's runs like these that remind you why you love it.  (not the ones of sheer misery in the heat, like I had on Saturday)

2.  I'm not going to lie...and I may have mentioned this already...but I'm participating in a Bridal Expo thing in October and I'm terrified of getting involved in something like this, but I'm also excited.  I have a lot of work to do, and a few dollar bills to spend to get everything ready for it, but I'm hoping it will all be worth it.  I'd really hate to pass up an opportunity like this and regret it later.  And like Joni said, "you can spend as much or as little time doing it as you want.  That's the beauty of owning your own business."

3.  I've realized I can be intolerable sometimes.  Too opinionated.  Too spoiled.  Too headstrong.  I need to learn when to keep my mouth closed.  Is there an app for that?

4.  Either I'm getting old, or...I'm getting old, but going "clubbing" doesn't seem like much fun to me any more...not that I ever really went, but humor me.  I loooooove to dance and I used to love going dancing at all the free/cheapo places with my friends.  But now it's kind of lost it's luster.  I mean, for one, I'd be going alone which just isn't as much fun, and two...I always feel like Kate on Baby Mama where she comes out in her floral top and ginger body splash, puts her hand on her hip, and says "Well, it is a night club!"  I just never feel sexy/hot/cute/whatevs and it's kind of a buzz kill.  Hey fellas!  I'm showing a little ankle!  Ow!!

5.  I keep acquiring lists and ideas of new places and little trips I want to go on and I'm wondering when I married the rich older man who is paying for all of it?  I don't remember...

6.  I had a legit nightmare the other night.  I can't even tell you the last time that happened.  Woke up in a sweat, turned the light on, read, listened to hymns on my ipod until I fell asleep and could be sure I wouldn't fall back into the same dream.  Yeah.  That scary.  I was up for a good 30 mins at some unforeseen hour.

7.  In congruence with the 3 races I have coming up in the next couple of months, I'm reminding everyone now to please restrain me from signing up for any more races whilst still in a euphoric state from the previous race.  It is imperative that you use whatever force necessary.

8.  Missy Elliott Pandora may possibly be my new favorite station.

9.  My friend/wing man, Janeen, moved on Wednesday and it makes me sad.  I get so attached to my friends and then they move on with their lives.  It's so selfish!  Why don't they just want to stay and hang out with me?!

10.  I say "how are ya?!" on the phone sometimes.  I'm a hypocrite.

Oh man, clubbing?!?! What is that?? I remember the days when I would dress up in some fancy garb, strap on my heels (ok, flip flops, me in heels is laughable) and hit the town with my ladies. That seems like such a long time ago. Haha, we are pathetic but awesome. I loved going out and having a good time dancing but I seem to be too lazy these days to spend more than 15 minutes getting ready. This is why we are friends. We would rather have sweatpants Saturday, spending it watching Dexter than to go out on the town one night... unless it is bingo. Seriously, bingo, how old are we?!?! Hahaha.

P.S. Thank you for posting. It made my day!!
