I get to help engineer a surprise party (really, just dinner with a few "best friends") for my 11 year-old for his birthday today. How best to mess with him (in a fun loving way, of course)? hopefully you've started the day by ignoring him/not acknowledging that today is a special day. or say..."oh i'm forgetting something important today - my car is due for inspection! YES that's it!" make sure by dinner he thinks you hate him and have completely forgotten about his bday. of course if you were nice at all this morning you've already ruined it. Um I am going to go with no on this one being someone who did have their parents forget their birthday. I really don't care about my birthday, though I just realized I am a year younger than I thought?!?
that's a pleasant surprise! |

When I walk in 5-inch heels I notice that my calves are sore the next day.trinnas - 2013-01-18 11:43 AM jclarke450 - 2013-01-18 11:42 AM Goodie Goodie.....Kate and Cheri are both here. Maybe one of the two of you wonderful ladies can answer my previous question about walking in heels. Are some women just born with the ability to walk in 5 inch heels or is a learned skill?
It is a learned skill though some have better body mechanics to begin with. i think it's a natural talent. i have a fierce "batch walk" that i just have always done, i don't know how to walk well in flats. haha. Tony, thats what I mean, but do you like the way they make your calves look?.. E has strong calves and she needs some practice in any height heels. Maybe if they made flip flops in 3 inch heels she would have learned. They do! |

I think we should leave at least a little time to see if Chicagoans can pick ONE race over the summer somewhere relatively local that as many of us as possible can make it to. |
