    Started the C25k app today because I like having someone tell me when to run and when to walk :)

    I am ready to start that myself. I was hoping that would tell me what to do!!

    I really like it because I'll be going along listening to my music and it'll beep and say start walking then beep start running and I don't have to look at my watch or anything it's great!

    Great news for me. I am working on getting my physical endurance up a bit for a mud run in October.

    Either of you tried the Zombies, run! app? I've heard good reviews about that one.

    That may be one I need to look into since The Walking Dead is my favorite show. Gotta train for the apocolypse!!

    I just tried it last week (based on someone's recc in this thread.) It's pretty cool! Like running in a video game.

    I'm kinda OCD about my run/walk ratios (I run 2 mi, walk 1/4 mi, run 2 mi, walk 1/4 mi, etc.) so I haven't turned on the "Zombie Chase" function that makes you speed up when you're under attack...I might try it tonight on my run though.
    I've considered getting this but I don't really like video games. Last time I looked it was a paid app. You can get it for free now?

    yes you can

    All the way back on page five now. Are they trying to tell us something? Should we head for the Bat Cave?

    Wondering the same thing. :-/ Last time it got locked into place, it was because the original post had been flagged a certain number of times, and the mods came and removed the flags. But when I went back and checked it this time, there aren't any new flags or anything... So I don't know what's going on this time!

    New confession. Yup, I did just fall asleep at my desk for 15mins. I think this thread is an obsession because the first thing I thought of when I woke up was to tell you guys about it.

    I don't know if I should be concerned about this or not...

    Sounds a lot like me... :D I think we all have a slight obsession. I mean, we've been in this thread for 1056 pages and we're going strong. O.o

    And here's my boys, one on the left is Ollie a pitbull/hound mix, the other is Boone an Irish Setter/Lab mix.
    As of late, this thread has been 'populated' with a bevy of beautiful dogs (it's making me melt)... :)

    ...and I've always wondered what an Irish Setter/Lab mix might look like (they're two of my favorite breeds) -- so beautiful!
    nonoelmo wrote: »
    The best dog my parents ever had while I was growing up was a mostly lab / Irish Setter mix. He was a wonderful dog. Total strangers would offer to buy him on the spot. (not for sale). He had such heart and personality! He was black with the flags on his legs and tail that the setters have. He was 1/8 Setter (or so we were told, he was a pound puppy)
    Oh, my... I can only imagine how uniquely beautiful a Black Lab / Irish Setter mix would be... and to have the flags and tail that a Setter has -- ! -- Wow... that would definitely have been a dog that 'stood out'...

    ...and as much as I cannot fathom how total strangers would go up to anyone to offer to buy their dog (OMG! -- how does someone walk up to *anyone* and offer to buy someone's family member?!!!), I can understand total strangers making a comment regarding someone's dog (heck, I've done that... I recall a specific instance from several years ago, in what represented the first time in years that I'd seen a Chocolate Lab in person... and someone was resting the dog in some shade, near a convenience store I'd just pulled up to, on a hot summer day... and as I walked toward the door, I couldn't help looking at that wondrous dog, and smiling, as I quickly conveyed, to the human guardian/family member accompanying said dog, how absolutely beautiful the dog was (he was also, easily, one of the largest/longest Labs I've ever seen in my life... he looked so strikingly regal (if Chocolate Labs were able to speak English, I wouldn't have been surprised to hear that dog recite Shakespeare (and in a beautifully sonorous voice (and with a British accent, to boot ;) )))... he seemed like a form of 'impossible' one might perchance see painted in some book from the 1900s, and for which it would be assumed that the dimensions were wrong (of the painted dog, not the book ;) ), and that the dog's body length might possibly have been exaggerated in conjunction with whatever compulsion seems to afflict fishermen who brag about their 'catch' :p -- or that the artist who painted the dog perhaps thought that they were painting a small-statured horse (as beautiful as such beings are, this one would have repeatedly experienced hearing the words, "this horse looks so much like a dog..." :) )...


    (...now, I need to do a quick search, to 'catch a glimpse' of a Black Lab / Irish Setter mix... :) )


    @nonoelmo, it makes my day to even have this concept introduced to my mind... thank you! :)

    @Susieq_1994 - I am behind so maybe someone already suggested this, but have you looked into any apps that block profanity? They have them for the web in general and also for ebooks. There is even something you can connect to your TV that blocks swear words.

    I wonder why this thread is so hard to find suddenly!!

    I am leaving for work now and hoping today is a good day!

    Yesterday sucked!

    I got lost running an errand for my son (he got his grad hoodie for next year Monday and his name was spelled wrong, so had to find the uniform shop and get it fixed).....then we realized his bike was stolen, he just recently bought it and it is his transportation to and from work, so he had to walk yesterday, and today. Then I missed my gym time because as I was heading there, the office staff at my building called me and told me another bike had been stolen and asked me to see if I could come and view the video....that took a while and we saw nothing actually.

    I feel bad for my son :(

    Work is stressful right now too, kind of a long story, but we had a new girl that only worked about two months and now is off sick for an 'undetermented' amount of time, so they are replacing her and her husband came in Monday while I was there and freaked out on my boss....I do not generally work on Tuesdays but my boss text me and said this is becoming a bit of a nightmare. I have known her husband for years and now things are awkward, and I got her the job for him......my boss is cool, she knows I could not have known, but the whole situation is just sucky and stressful.

    Plus I am still not really speaking to my SO still, we are on week two.....so that just adds to the stress.

    I am not going to let it ruin tonight though! Tonight is the only night in a long while that I will be home alone. My daughter is out of town visiting a friend and my son is working. My daughter keeps getting straight day shifts, which is strange for a 19 year old working at tourist attractions that are open all night...and she is a new hire....over all it is great because she can rely on the bus which is obviously much cheaper than cabs etc, but it is seriously cutting into my alone time that over the last year I have gotten very used to! A year ago I never had alone time, but now I love it, lol.

    So, tonight, I am going to indulge in a chicken bacon alfredo pizza from domino's and watch Big Brother! I figure I have about five hours of alone time after work before my son gets home....so I am gonna get everything done I need to do right away and then sit on the sofa and just bask in my aloneness lol.

    Today is my day off logging so I am not worried about such things tonight, I am gonna eat super light during the day, just a light lunch and already did not eat much breakfast, but tonight I will eat pizza and my favorite Haagan Dazs chocolate peanut butter ice cream.....I am not even gonna have my phone on!

    P.S. BB people, I am gonna go start the thread now, so don't forget to check there later!!

    Have a great day everyone!

    @Italian_Buju Sorry things are not great for you right but yay for getting alone time!! I hear it's a wonderful thing ;) I was also meaning to ask you how are you doing health wise? I remember you had a rough couple days last week

    I will be watching for your BB thread! So excited!!

    Beat off at work bathroom to thoughts of new reception girl

    I think it's funny that you say this, but on your page your inspirations are

    > Intimidating the boys coming around for my daughters
    > To be the best example to my son that I can be

    that new reception girl is someones daughter too y'know, and I'm not sure that is a good example of being a man now is it?

    I confess: I am judging you for judging that post...BUT his friends list consists almost entirely of attractive females with their make-up covered faces and body parts exposed....I smell a misogynist.

    I normally skip past those posts, but that made me a little sick in my mouth and had to see what kind of creep we are dealing with. Turns out to be a hypocritical one. So I felt a little urge to publicly shame him. Judge all you want, if I found out a man did that at my place of work or that new receptionist was my {hypothetical} daughter, he would be one testicle missing.

    Edited because men are men, whatever, but don't make it public, I don't want that visual thanks

    Edit again because: Why are you judging me for judging that? (out of curiosity, not picking a fight), it's disgusting and offensive.

    Because it's supposed to be a 'NO JUDGEMENT' thread. /irony

    The fact is, I totally agree with you and you were right to call him on his bullsmurf. Imagine if the woman herself found out about his 'fantasizing'. Life is NOT a porno, she would likely be horribly offended and never want to work near you again, dude.
    It also definitely had the air of a confession that was merely posted to try and stir stuff up.
    Men ARE men but, in my opinion, grown men don't 'beat off' to the new receptionist while at work. They should wait until they get home for that kind of thing. Do WORK at work. Or...post on a forum about the crappy way you've been eating lately and how you have skipped workouts and how you are posting things at work when you really should be working(I am guilty of all these things).

    Also, I noted in my post that he was likely a misogynistic hypocrite based on his friends list, which, I confess, was also me judging him. :tongue:

    TL;DR: I wasn't ACTUALLY judging you. I was agreeing with you and then confessing my own judgement of 'Yeah, this dude is a misogynistic hypocrite who should keep his self love schedule to himself'.

    ETA: Some things just come across poorly in textual format. Or maybe I am slightly terrible at expressing myself in the way I actually intend... :disappointed:

    I also think he's the same man who had the sleeping girlfriend.

    I can confirm this.

    Fish and chips are THE BEST when eaten on a chilly, windy beach with seagulls waiting menacingly for any leftovers.
    :)

    ...in reading your wonderful description of seagulls, I suddenly find myself thinking of a store that I occasionally go to, and which is close enough to the water that seagulls fly and hover about (and pick at remnants of littered food in the parking lot)... and as I make my way into that store, I cannot help thinking, "...how does this food end up in the parking lot?", and "please don't poop on me... please don't poop on me..." -- which I seem to repeat almost mantra-like, until I (safely! and poop-free!) make it into the store... ;)

    Just dropping by to say that there's a german word that means the extra weight gained from emotional eating, and it literally means "grief bacon." I love german.

    That is great! I now see this becoming a term exclusive to our thread. Every time someone over eats and is unhappy about it: grief bacon. As in, "Why did I eat those cookies?! I had a grief bacon incident!"
    Kummerspek and 9 other awesome German words:
    http://hellogiggles.com/10-fabulous-german-words-english-equivalent/

    Those are great! Thanks for the link. And, once again, I've learned something from you wonderful people: I know someone on another message board that uses the screen name of the first word in your link. Always wondered what it meant and now I know!

    And, I'm 242 posts behind...

    Well, I am just gonna go ahead and assume the calorie count on that waffle cone is fair....since nobody seemed to notice that post.....

    I'm sorry! I saw it and read it, but I don't count calories nor do I eat waffle cones, so I'm of no help.

    Well if I knew this man IRL I would report him to the police as a predator and a threat to society. (Little bit too much?) As I said earlier I put my big girl panties on this morning, I've gone all feminist, did my Stonglift session at the gym and I'm PUMPED! :lol: well... after my 15min accidental nap at my desk. :hushed:

    yesterday afternoon i had plans to take my mom to see jurassic world. yesterday we also had a massive storm that dumped tons of rain. it was still slightly raining when i left the house to meet her at the theater. of course i'm perpetually late for everything and was probably driving a smidge too fast for the road conditions.

    then i started to fishtail on the four lane highway, and i completely can't pull out of it, totally lose control, the car does a full 360 spin across the two lanes of oncoming traffic and i bounce off of the opposing guardrail.

    by some tiny miracle, no one was coming when i crossed lanes. if anyone had been, i probably would have killed them and myself. so i'm on the wrong side of the road facing the wrong direction. see no one coming at me head on, and drive back over to the right side of the road to a stoplight. this dude pulls up in the lane next to me and is like ARE YOU OK?!?!! i'm all shaky and say yeah, i think so. light turns green and i drive on to the theater like everything is fine.

    i meet up with my mom and i'm like, i think i might have just almost died, and explain the whole thing to her and she's like... well maybe you should slow the hell down. and i say no, this was REALLY scary, and she's just like yeah, i've done it before too. slow down.

    thanks mom!

    confession: my mother's total lack of empathy and concern really ticks me off sometimes....


    I confess my first thought was why are you driving so fast to make a movie of all things......esp in bad weather, slow down!

    it was JURASSIC WORLD!
    dinosaurs!
    i've been giddy for this for SO LONG.
    but i fully admit that dying before getting there would have greatly ruined it.... ;)

    You're so funny! We went to see it last weekend too. My husband was the same as you, asking me every week for months, "When does Jurassic World come out? That's too long to wait"

    Yay! That sounds awesome! I'm a little jealous. My goal is to do a mud run or obstacle course in the fall but I don't have anyone to do it with me. I hurt my left shoulder a couple months ago and went to physical therapy for a bit and somehow hurt my right shoulder a week ago so no weights for awhile. Long story short...I'm afraid that I won't have the upper body strength for it. Ok I'm finished whining. :(

    Does anyone have helpful hints for preparing for a mudder?

    Oh no! I have no experience with as far as a mudder, but wanted to say I hope you heal quickly!

    @Tubbs216 give him enough Valium to knock him out. Seriously though, I hope it goes well and that he's not too much of a baby for you!

    Glad you like it! I think part of the issue with missing posts here isn't so much that the thread is busy (though that's part of it), but it's more that when folks respond, they tend to quote the ENTIRE POST they are replying to, including lengthy blocks of text and/or images and photos. It doesn't take long to burn through multiple pages that way, and bury other new posts in the process.

    Normally I'd have the same concern but right now, when I'm 30 pages behind (and I've skipped 10-page chunks over the past couple of days :/ because when I've replied the "new post" function bumps to the post after my own instead of the last one I'd read up to that point) I kinda welcome the huuuuuge post quotes because they occupy a lot of space on the page, thereby reducing my reading. :D

    And that was a horribly run-on sentence that probably made no sense whatsover.
