They are so much more fun than other races. I did my first half there in Florida last Jan and went back this Jan for my first full. They added the 10k this year to the Cali races so... yeah I'm in. Coast to coast medal!!! At some point, I plan on doing one of each but that's a looooong term goal lol... provided my husband…

I have yet to fully run a 5k... also my goal for the year. However I'm thinking I'm crazy. Jan = 2 5k's and a full marathon. Feb = 1 5k. March = a half, and 4 short races... between 3 and 5 miles. April = 1 half, 1 5k, and 1 fundraiser walk. May = at least 1 5k but I haven't planned past that yet. (Except September... 5k,…

I had them as a kid, I think I was around 8ish. I had a TON of ear infections... not sure what they told my mom but they did put tubes in. I don't recall much about having them in except for being made to wear earplugs while swimming (and a seriously style cramping headband to keep them in :laugh: ). I do know that I…

High school. His best friend was dating my (now ex-)best friend. He had a crush on me and they introduced us. Been together 12 years, married 4 tomorrow! :heart:

4'10" :)

Awww love them all! Will have to try to remember to post a pic of my fur-babies when I get home tonight. :)

Did the Fiesta 5k and the Half last year... signed up for the 5k and the FULL for 2013. Can't wait! One day I'll get to Goofy...

BAHAHAHAHA omg no I hadn't seen that... that's exactly what it's like too. :laugh:

No kidding. The closest Whole Foods to me has a horrible parking lot that I really don't feel like dealing with. And the nearest Trader Joe's is a bit of a drive since they closed the one closest to me. So I end up shopping at neither, even though I'd like to. Might have to take a trip to explore though.

WEIRD! I was so confused reading this... there is also a series by Rachel Vincent (YA books) that have some of the same names (the Soul Screamers series)... My Soul to Take, My Soul to Save, My Soul to Keep, My Soul to Steal, If I Die, and coming soon Before I Wake. Anyway... I just started Hunger Games (#1) on my Kindle…

I've had both... I actually got rid of the elliptical so that I could get a treadmill. It really depends on the person but I hated the elliptical. I struggled using it for years and couldn't figure out why I had such a hard time... I thought it was me. Finally got around to doing some research and it turned out that I was…

LOL I've got you all beat... except wises5. 4'10" :ohwell:

Wow... me too, sorta. Maybe not the Smithsonian but something more local for me. I'm just finishing up my Associates in Accounting (yup, found out thats NOT what I wanna do) and will be starting my Bachelors in History in the fall. :)

Exactly! I'd take my dogs over people any day. :flowerforyou:

People are horrible! I don't know why anyone would abuse animals. One of my two rescues was the same kind of scared when we adopted him. He still has "people issues" but is doing much better now. Good for you for even temporarily taking the poor doggie in!

:huh: I'm at a loss for words on this one.

Reminds me of a former friend of mine. So we go on this school trip and we're sharing a room. We check in and she goes to take a shower. She comes out and says, uhhhh our shower is leaking. So I go look. She didn't have the shower curtain on the inside of the bathtub. Same friend also thought that Chik-fil-a was a…

I worked in a bank for a bit... I did get that one a lot. Along with... how do I fill out a check/withdrawl slip? Oh and I loved the people who walked by 4 signs that the ATM was down, nevermind the message on the screen and would still try to jam their card into it and then get mad. :laugh:

My husband who is an IT gets the best ones at work... Employee: This web site is not working Hubby: You left out a w in www, just add it Employee: ok, where should I add it Hubby: *sigh* Another... At a company meeting, presenter puts up a slide of "on this day" and the years of the events are 1909, 1945, 1958, 1967, 1981,…

I use mapmyrun on my BB.

I'm thinking about doing it... unsure yet. Never ran that far lol. I am however signed up for the 5K.

I'm not a mental health professional and I had the exact same thoughts.

I second that!

Is the Wii Fit sitting on carpet? If it is, make sure the extra feet are on it... I didn't have the feet on mine one day and almost freaked out at what it said.

I honestly don't know... try googling it? I'm 4'10" so I def have a problem with them.

I'd say if the elliptical is working for you, go with it. :) I on the other hand was using an elliptical for 3 years. I would fight and fight with it and couldn't get past 10 minutes on the thing. Now I had gotten the elliptical for free but what I had really wanted was the treadmill. A few months ago, I was finally able…

Do we have a new thread that I missed?

idiot, cheater, liar, and so one sided (as in he put nada in)... thankfully we were young enough we never married. shoulda listened to his mom when she told me I should break up with him. his mom still loves me and talks to me all the time :laugh:

High School. His best friend and my (former) best friend were dating and introduced us. That was in 2000. Engaged in 2006. Married in 2008 and he's still putting up with me. :flowerforyou:

Yup, almost everyone. I'd be surpirsed if there wasn't a bad day. Like me yesterday, and already today LOL.
