So far this week, I’ve bought new shoes, new bras, new pajamas and sweatshirts for the kids, and made a huge trip to Costco. I thought I was done this afternoon, but now I have one more purchase to make. Why? ’cause I ripped the a$$ out of my running capris. Unlike my lovely black eye (which I am oh so tired of BTW), no pain was involved, but it was a bit of a PITA. I sat down on our wooden stairs to put on my running shoes and when I stood up, my pants got caught on a nail and RIP! Since I didn’t think the entire neighborhood needed to see my undies, I had to run in yoga capris today.
I told Beer Geek about Glavey‘s complaint that the beer picture was below the shoes. His comment? “Well, you do love shoes more than beer…” Guess there’s a reason the man calls me his Little Imelda. Speaking of beer, we’ve decided to donate a “basket of seasonal beers” and a beer tasting dinner (including a vertical tasting of the Alaskan Smoked Porter) to Jones’ school auction. I just have to figure out a value and description. Hopefully there are some parents at his school who appreciate good beer…
I had an awesome run today. Four miles at just under a 9 minute pace. Oddly, I didn’t feel like I was working very hard. Why can’t I have a run like that when I have time to do more miles? It was so windy that I actually got blown off the sidewalk at one point. When I got home from my run, Shoo made sure to tell me that he and daddy fixed the nail. LOL
Great job on your run.And Thanks for doing your part to stimulate the economy. 😉
OMG thank goodness the nail only snagged your pants and not your butt too. Ouch that would hurt hehe.
Great job on your run!! Yeah for buying running clothes!
I'm loving buying all the running gear… lovin' it too much! I am doing my part to help the economy… it's just good I take care of the bills and checking account & not my hubby. Congrats on your good run!
Nice job on your 4 miler! And it sucks about the pants, but if you get new ones out of the deal, it’s all good!
You done Obama proud!That basket of cheer for Jones’ school auction sounds like it’ll be a hot item.
You have to blog about how much the beer went for and how quickly! Because I have a feeling, Shoey McFootshod, that you just might under-value the beer (thinking, “Well, it’s not a pair of shoes!”) and it’ll end up being bought by someone with no appreciation of its actual worth and ability to make unattractive people (like me) look like studs! And pardon me for saying so, but maybe the fact that you value SHOES more than BEER goes a long way towards explaining why you’re only getting nailed by NAILS these days, which is okay, kinda fun, but nowhere near as good as the other kind of “nailing”, if you get my drift!And if you don’t get my drift, I was alluding to sex. Beer helps in that dept.Good job on the run, sister! I had a good run today, too! Woo-hoo! FINALLY!
Nice 4 miler. Sounds like Christmas in February at your house!
