Wednesday's Wrandom Wrambling - Thursday Edition

Got a free box of Dots today from the Health Benefits people.  Discovered that I have to sort and eat those by color too.  And for the record, they aren't that great.  Certainly not worth the 220 calories I wasted.
And I'll be picking at them in my teeth with my tongue for the rest of the afternoon.

I can't wait until Monday.  That means Halloween will be over with and all the silliness can end.  You've already told me how weird I am, so you can just let it go now.

I'm going to try a detox bath tonight.  My friend at work did it and lost 1.2 lbs overnight.  I am convinced it's going to purge my skin of all the toxins the season is depositing in it.  (And yet another reason to NOT dig fall)

I have found a new political blog I like to read.  Malcontent.  Be advised, it's very conservative and most def leans to the right, but the writer usually seems to say exactly what I am thinking.  I guess that means I am conservative and lean to the right. 
Which is funny, because when my massage/structural therapist had me stand and look at my posture in the mirror, I was definitely leaning to the left.  So strange.

Speaking of my massage/structural therapist.  I am digging this guy.  He's old enough to be my dad, but he's good and works with other runners from my gym.  He's a sweet, nice little lamb that makes my muscles feel much better.

No running now for almost 4 weeks.  I think it's getting better.  I have cheated and done a little with some stairs and realized that I need to completely stop in order for my tibia to get better.  Life now consists of:
Cycle, Swim, Cycle, Swim, Weights, Cycle.  Repeat it all again the next week.
'sokay since I WILL BE ready to run on Thanksgiving day.  Turkey Trot is planned.

Got a letter from 'dawg that he wrote on Sunday.  Said that they were told they earned a phone call home, and for me to make sure I had my phone on.
It's Thursday - no call.  I am hoping some young recruit punk didn't screw up and ruin it for the whole platoon.    I hope that I get to post about a phone call by next Monday.  Or at least another letter.

We have snow.  It's cold.  I hate it.  And that's all I have to say about that.

I'm puppy hungry and will begin looking in earnest for a companion for Jordan after we get back from San Diego.  Prolly another Schnauz.     Can't wait!

Sissy is starting pre-school next week.  I am so happy and excited for her!  She will love it and it will provide some structure and learning opportunities that will be good for her.  I can't believe it.  Sometimes it seems like just last month that she was born and other times, it feels like it has been a long, hard 3 + years for our family.

I am digging the NBC Thursday night line up and regardless what everyone else thinks, I am finding this season of The Office just as funny as ever!  I'll be sad to see Michael go.  

I can't believe how badly Dots get stuck in your teeth.  Boo........

I hate this cold too. The thing I have to sort and eat by color are M&Ms. After I sort them, I have to even out the colors (eat them until there are the same amount of each) and then I either eat one of each color or eat them by color. I have no idea why I do this, except that I feel all sorts of wrongish if I don't.

And I will be happy for Halloween to be over, it seriously bugs.

hey, it's gorgeous outside today!
Malcontent rocks it!
When I detoxed the toxins came out of my butt---we are talking major detox!

I realized I didn't link to Malcontent. Problem fixed.

gigi said...

I HATE DOTS!! What a waste of sugar!
I'll check out your Malcontent. I lean way to the right.
I also had a great massage today!!!! I so didn't want to get up and come home and cook supper, but I did :{
I know Sissy will love school and you will be able to see a big difference in her really soon.
Did I tell you that I hate Halloween? Well, I do!

Love The Malcontent. He usually says what I am thinking too. And the lefty loons really hate him so that makes me love him even more.

Please share the recipe for the detox bath. I could stand to lose another pound or two. Or ten.

I also think The Office is funny this season. Much better than last season. I will miss Michael too. Boo for him leaving.

Preschool is the best. Sometimes I miss teaching it.

lol, k two things:

1st-i need to know more about this detox bath! i looked at myself in the mirror last night & then again this morning, which confirmed it: halloween festivities are CANCELED in my book. i swear it feels like i'm 4 sizes bigger than i was last week when i tugged my leggings & leg warmers on for my penelope pussycat costume. as for this week? it's a flat-out no-go! so please educate my detox-desperate brain, a-thank you.

2nd-you probably physically lean so far to the left so that it balances out your far-right leaning internally. makes logical sense to me. lol. (0:

(p.s. fingers crossed that they've remained good enough to make those calls soon!)

Let me know how the clense goes. I need one too. All these kid activities and no exercise; I feel bigger.

Amy said...

Please share the detox bath how-to. I could use some detoxifying.

I like to decorate for Halloween but I can really take it or leave it - not my fave holiday.

Dots aren't worth the effort of chewing and then trying to scrape the goop off your teeth. I'd rather have chocolate. YUM!
