With a half hour to spare

Monday, July 31st, 2006

Couldn’t sleep so I thought I’d post. The speed dating event was actually somewhat fun. Met a few nice women. Maybe they’d like to see me again, maybe not. At any rate, had more fun than I otherwise would on a Monday night. Can’t say I haven’t tried. Time will tell…

Buon Appetit!

In other amusing news, I cooked today. Grilled lemon pepper salmon with raw spinach and brown rice. Got to eat healthy! Of course, I finished it off with a few chocolate covered Oreos ;) Oh well.

Dinner is served!

In the mood for a laugh?

Tomorrow I’m going to an actual speed dating event in Orange, CT. You could call it coming out of my comfort zone, or reaching a new low. Hey, I’ve tried everything else. Guess when it comes to love, you’ve got to keep stepping up to the plate and swing again and again. I’ll let you know how it goes.

What the $#@!?

Boorman
Great deals on Boorman
Shop on eBay and Save!
www.eBay.com
OK, I admit it. I Googled myself. This is what appeared in the ads on the right. Someone is selling me on ebay?!? Listen folks, I am for sale, but I do NOT come cheap! Whoever claims to be selling me on ebay is clearly not an authorized Boorman dealer and is probably selling cheap knockoffs. I have had complaints before from people who thought they were buying a Chris Boorman, but instead were shipped a Wil Wheaton. While I feel bad that they got ripped off, there’s nothing much I can do except suggest they call their credit card’s fraud unit.

Mad TV? Not funny. Never was funny. Never will be funny.

Saturday Night Live? VERY Funny. This cast is the best since the late 80’s when they had Hartmann, Carvey and Lovitz. If you disagree, you’re wrong ;)

Crap.

Managed 10 miles today, but ended up walking for most of it :(

Also managed to get light sunburn in the process. :( :(

I’m pretty sure I sucked so bad today because I was running on a near empty stomach, and it was just too darn hot outside. Going to have to remember that on race day.

10 Miles!

I need a little helper…

Today didn’t turn out quite so bad at work today. Monday, who knows, but I’ll worry about that then. Until then, IT’S THE WEEKEND!!! I’ll try to get out running tomorrow morning, but no promises. My right hip has been killing me lately. Mick & Keith were right. What a draaaaaag it is getting oooooold. :(

Mick and Keith

SWEET!!!!

I never watch ‘My Name Is Earl’, but today, I just happened to flip on the TV and there it was. During the last scene, in the background, played ‘The Weight’, by The Band. One of the greatest songs of all time by one of the greatest bands of all time. Really cool. Just what I needed to brighten my day. If you don’t know about The Band (yes, that is their name), ask someone who knows.

Didn’t make it out to run last night like I had planned. Didn’t make it this morning either. Had a bad day at work today. Tomorrow’s going to be worse. Because of that, I don’t really feel like running tonight or tomorrow morning. So now it’s going to be almost a week in between runs. Plus some bad days at work to boot.

I know I’m not supposed to let things like this get to me, but I can’t help it. “This too shall pass, I guess”. Thing is, WHEN will it pass? :(

I’m not going there…

But who says YOU can’t go there and send us a postcard? C’mon all you Yahoo! message boards users. You always have plenty of rambling, incoherent, disturbing pearls of wisdom. Leave a comment with your own one-liner!
