Really people? Don't you have a life? (tee hee) It's good to know I've been missed.
What's new with me?
Running- not so much. It seems everytime I get over 8 miles, my knee starts to hurt. I shared my hypothesis with Teresa. My butt is too big. SERIOUSLY. My knees can't stand the weight of my butt and thus, hurt. So, I surmised that in order to have a career as a runner (ha ha and give up nursing?!?!?!) I need to lose some weight. So back to Weight Watchers I run, being particularly motivated by the 4000 calories worth of margaritas, chips and salsa that I consumed last night (thanks teresa and francesca!!!).
Gotta love WW. This morning at our meeting, the skinny annoying leader Natalie (HATE HATE HATE her, much prefer Gayle but they alternate Saturdays) told us about WW's new campaign 'Lose for Good'. Now selfishly, I just assume they were talking about ME losing for good. Apparently not. For every pound members lose between sept and oct 17, WW will donate 1 lb of food to a national food bank. While I sympathize with the plight of hunger, should I be insulted that they basically want to take the food out of my mouth and give it to the hungry??? I'd rather just donate the food and not 'earn' it (or feel guilty when I don't lose any weight and people starve). AH.
On an another random note, I ran in my new shoes today. Not sure I'm digging them thus for. They are 'motion stabilizers' (i.e. orthopedic running shoes) for remedial runners such as myself who can't seem to keep their arches up. They make my feet awfully sweaty and my heels hurt.
I also scored a major coup last week when I found WIN detergent at Inline running store. It is the detergent of the US olympic team :) It is supposed to help get the permi-B.O. smell out of your coolmax-type exercise clothes. NOW, I have no idea if it actually works since I have yet to do wash...
And finally, I am just recovered from the outer ear infection I got from my germy Ipod ear buds. Please wash them- I didn't :(
Gotta run, we are off to Tosa Fest (the highlight of the Wauwatosa Social season). I promise not to neglect my blog so much.... Happy running!!
