Mad Lib & A Milkshake

"Are you ready?" you mother calls from the hall, "you have to be at miami in three hours, and you still haven't picked up the creme brulee! Hurry up! We're gonna be late!"Without another thought, you scarf down your breakfast of popcorn and martini and head for the door. As you catch yourself in the mirror, you notice how hairy you look.Oh well! you think to yourself, No time to worry about it now! Besides, I look as light as a feather!
In the blink of an eye, you're behind the wheel of your 1998 rolls jamming to limbo. Zooming 4 MPH down the road, you pass by the creme brulee shop. "dammit!" you scream as you do a U-turn and almost run over some toys who are running in the road.After some arguing with the big smelly guy named rob, you pick up the creme brulee, get in the car, and head for miami. Upon arriving, A.and K., the bridesmaids, are wearing matching ballerina costumes. They are singing conga and reek of beer and pizza. You walk by pretending you've never seen them before and desperately search for bob, your soon-to-be mate-for-life. (You realize that it's bad luck to see each other before the wedding, but at this point you just don't care anymore)Finding bob naked except for a bowler hat, high off something other then life, you call the whole thing off and decide a spoon named rick would be better company.


I've only got about 4 brain cells firing today and that mad lib still has me laughing. I spent a few hours yesterday reading Kristin Armstrong's blog on RW and was so inspired to write today. Unfortunately I was sideswiped by a late night with the Yankees and then had my sleep rudely interrupted by our fire alarm. I don't understand why the battery would suddenly DIE at 2:37 a.m. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a 9 volt battery at 2:30 in the morning!!?? Not a pretty sight I assure you.

I could really use a few hours of run therapy with my girls to clear the cobwebs out of my brain. Instead here I am slurping on a Burger Joint milkshake and recovering from this afternoon's news that my high school best friend is pregnant. Please help....

Hit and still can't run.

So after I saw my trainer on Friday, she sent me to see her husband who is a chiropractor. He did ultra sound on my knee, and it felt better - although I think I'll have to go back again because its still bothering me.

So after IMing with KM (we can call her Tri-bags) today, I decided that I would go to the pool to do some deep water running. I've never done this before...I'm usually more than happy to take a break when my body hurts! The actual opposite of our friendie SC. So on my way out of fleet feet, where I picked myself up a Aqua Jogger, I hit someones car pulling out of my parking spot. Oh yeah, here's the worst part, I was driving MC's car. I was doing him a "favor" today and took his car to get the oil changed. I wish this was the first time this happened. I've actually hit the side of the garage, the side of our house, and my neighbors car, not once but twice.

So I went to whole foods on the way home, picked up mint chocolate chip ice cream, 2 New York Strips, tomatoes & mozzarella, and mashed potatoes - and he asked if I was trying to butter him up, and I said yeah.

None the less, I aqua jogged for an hour, and when I got out of the pool, my legs felt like bricks. Has anyone done this before??? I guess it was a good work out, and my knee feels better - although still not 100%. Thoughts on my rehab??
