    I was walking around the track in my favorite red shorts, minding my own business. Just as the photographer was about to snap the picture, some stunning specimen of a man photojacked me in the foreground! >:(

    As a wildly unphotogenic person, this one was a rare gem for me. :)

    Mine was last Saturday at the Ohio State Women's Football Clinic. I may never take it down :)

    It was also a few hours before I, and a bunch of other women, got to run some football drills like the team including a (real) pushup contest (I did 16, the winner did 160).

    Cloak and dagger . . . here's the back story:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloak_and_Dagger_(comics)

    OriginTyrone "Ty" Johnson (Cloak) and Tandy Bowen (Dagger) met in New York City as runaways. Tyrone was a 17-year-old teenage boy from Boston, Massachusetts, with a debilitating stutter. He ran away to New York City when his speech impediment prevented him from stopping his friend from stepping in front of a moving vehicle. Tandy was a 16-year-old teenage girl from a privileged upbringing (born in Shaker Heights, Ohio) who ran away because her multi-millionaire supermodel mother was too busy for her daughter with her career and social life. Originally when they met, Tyrone considered stealing Tandy's purse, only to be shamed when she kindly offered him money. A thief stole the purse and Tyrone retrieved it for her. Afterwards, they had dinner and became fast friends. When the naïve Tandy accepted an offer of shelter from some strange men, a wary Tyrone went along to protect her. The two teens were soon forcibly delivered to a criminal chemist named Simon Marshall, who was developing a new synthetic heroin for Silvermane and the Maggia, testing it on runaway teens with fatal results. Johnson and Bowen somehow survived injections of the drug, and they fled. During their escape, the drug turned them into superpowered beings (it was later revealed that they were both actually mutants, and that the drug had simply awakened their latent abilities).[8] Tyrone found himself engulfed in darkness and seized by a strange hunger which eased in the presence of Tandy, who was glowing with a brilliant light. Trying to hide his newly shadowy appearance in a makeshift cloak, Tyrone began absorbing Marshall's thugs into his darkness while Tandy struck them down with daggers of light. The two teens dubbed themselves Cloak & Dagger and declared war on drug crime in combating drug-dealers and helping runaway children.[volume & issue needed] For all the work that Cloak and Dagger have done to help reform addicts and topple dealers, they realize that drug abuse is an evil greater than they can ever hope to conquer.

    It is what I wore on a college reunion in March. The dress was my mum's from in the 80s. We were looking through some old clothes and she found it and said I should try it on. I have always been way fatter than mum. She was a UK size 6 at her smallest and most of my youth she never was bigger than a 10. Any way, I tried it on and it fit. I had just had a stomach bug so my stomach was really flat. I love it. Didn't haev the balls to wear it withut a top underdeath as there is barely any back to it and I hate my arms.

    Des Moines Winter Games Snowboard Big Air Competition January 2011...

    The funny part is I did not actually register to compete since I did not feel the need to spend more money to prove that I know what I am doing - also I am not a competitive person. BUT - one guy chickened out since the jump was big - so I told them that I was him and rode under his name anyway. It was the only way i would be able to use the jump over the next hour - so I went for it, and the result was that I got this awesome picture!

    Lake Louise, Alberta. April 27, 2011. Still not yet my heaviest (peaked in August 2011). Husband and I on a stolen weekend. Walked all the way to the end of the lake. Back when I thought a stroll like that was good exercise. BTW, we walked around it, not on it although some people were on it, I have a true phobia about lake ice - especially during the time of year most of us think of as spring!

    And my progress ticker is sunset on the Bow River in Calgary, just 8 minutes from our house. We go there almost every evening during the summer fly-fishing season for a quick fix. The indistinct figure is my husband fly fishing in the river.

    I love Alberta.
