sorry 'bout the pic, I posted from work... could somebody cut it, and I'll post a smaller pic later

I'm in a blue funk, that's where I am and what I'm doing.

Blue funks are not swanky :(

I get that way. go do something 'out-of-character'. that usually breaks me out of it.

I'm still pretty week from the Food Poisoning. Just a hazzy world.

We had a wonderful office/factory cat Max. Just as sweet as could be - turned up one morning and our install guy adopted him (owners brother so he could do that.)

One day Max died. I think he ate something that had been poisoned and sort of went crazy down the street and keeled over.

Then the brother got a kitten. Well - cute as can be - we had an employee that just wouldn't leave it alone. Constantly had to go to it's office and play with it whether on break or not. (We kept the kitten in a large factory office until it got a little larger and could roam - it was just a baby and as cute as a kitten could be!)

Well - the owner, of course, didn't like that this employee wouldn't leave the kitten alone - so he got rid of both of them. :(

And no amount of hinting, asking, or begging has made him give in.

I need to ride a rollercoaster... my brain is mushy.

Well, I'm alive. I think.

I've lived for over a decade with asthma, so I'm used to the out of breath thing, though jsut HOW out of shape I am caught me by surprise (lasted all of 20 minutes before needing to collapse on the grass for a while).

But what really got me was that I apparantly can't run full speed anymore :( Oh, I've still got the mechanical ability to, I got up to full speed. But my sad, old, fluid-filled lungs just can't keep up with the oxygen demand. Sprinting down the field, I could suddenly feel my legs go into oxygen deprevation mode. Fortunately, I still know how to take a tumble at speed, so no harm done. But that was a little depressing.

I didn't think you'd been in the new place LONG enough for this kind of experiment! Is your refrigerator set cold enough?

Never mind - finished reading the thread to see it was pre-move.

I did 60 minutes on the elliptical tonight, and then came home to have dinner followed by tea and two pieces of DL English toffee. That stuff is the best ever.

I did 10 on the eliptical, 10 on the stepper, 10 on the climber, 20 on weights and ran two miles.

I then came in and ate a bowl of popcorn and peanut M & M's. :blush:

I need to punch the bag next, that takes only 10 minutes but I couldn't fit it into my workout earlier.

Dang Steph, I am so impressed by your upcoming marathon. My two miles kill me. I was going to try 3 but the cable guy came. *whew*:D
