Bridge to Terabithia

Watched Bridge to Terabithia, what an awful movie. I thought it would be a fun movie to watch...boy was it a downer. They killed off the only good character in the movie. What's up with that? From now on I am sticking to low brow, and bathroom humor.

Pickles, the root of all EVIL?

Pickles are evil. Nothing good has ever come form pickles. I'm thinking of making the eradication of all pickles in the world my life's work. Who puts pickles on a chicken sandwich? I'll tell you who...idiots, that's who.

Countdown

Only one day left until The Office season premier!!!

Bad day of football

Nothing else interesting happened to me the rest of the weekend. Spent the day Sunday watching football and unfortunately the Redskins lost, and the cowboys won. You would think that the Cowboys would be considerate enough to lose as well. How rude.

Another disappointing event was that Donavan McNabb had a fantastic day against the Lions. It is disappointing
because he is my Fantasy Football Quarterback and I benched him after two very dismal weeks.

Been a long time

I promised a co-worker that I would update my blog so here goes my week end so far. As a word of warning my blog will now have a bit more colorful language, and some of my opinions of how annoying people people can be, since my project for work is over and now I can write about what ever tickles my fancy. Of course I am just as qualified as anyone to be able criticize people, I can be just as annoying as the next person.

Went to a basket bingo on Saturday night, my second in a month, except the police were not involved in this one (no further comment as I don't want to incriminate myself). I didn't win one god damned basket! But I did win 2 door prizes, a $10 gird card to a local restaurant and a gift bag of Teletubbies merchandise (who knew they were still popular) and for the record La La is my favorite Teletubbie.

Here are some of my other observations from the bingo:

• The basket walkers were really annoying...ti was a couple of middle schools girls and they were racing around with the baskets like they would get a prize for walking around the room the fastest. I was hoping one of them would fall down just to make the night interesting
• Going to bingo, it is not like going to the prom. Someone was actually wearing a prom dress, and she looked like a ho...a ho for sho...plus VPL...come on what were you thinking?
• Tattoos on women are fantastic...but lose the Chuck Taylor All-Stars, wear something that will compliment them, unless you are actually going for the skanky look.

That's it for now...going to watch football. Go Skins!!!

At it again

Just got back from another run and it felt FANTASTIC!!! Running is much more fun than walking, my long walks were kind of boring, now with running I can cover the same distance in half the time. Nothing is better than hitting that runner's high just at the point where you think you can't go any farther, and then feeling like you are running on air, incredible. I never got that feeling when I was walking. I can't believe it, at this rate I will be up to 30 minutes non-stop in about 6 or 7 weeks. Just in time for the weather to start getting colder, nothing is better than running in cold weather. I will take that over heat any day. I will soon need to buy a new pair of running shoes I've got a lot of miles of walking on my current pair.

I have always wanted to run in the Main Street Mile in Westminster, if anyone from CCPL would like to join me perhaps we could start a team. We would need a clever name, something like Running with Books, The 796.42s (Dewey number for running), or Bibliotathletes. Of course I am getting ahead of myself, I need to keep up with my running first.

Running Again

I have started adding a bit of running to my exercise routine again. If you recall I had some problems with my left foot, not the movie My Left Foot, but my actual foot. After I began running back in May I started have lots of pain in my foot, well after several months of just walking I have finally started running again. Just for a few minutes here and there during my daily walks, and I feel great while I am running. I wasn't planning on running last night on my walk but half way through it started to rain so that helped make up my mind (I still got drenched though). Hopefully I will be running full time (30-45 minutes a day) in the next few months.

"I always loved running...it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs." - Jesse Owens
