Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) (Page 171)

Originally posted by bcraht Soooooooooo, my SO took the train in to meet me yesterday after work so we could go out for dinner.  She was behind and I got off a little early.  The sidewalk sale had just been moved to the Richmond store....  I just started on my last pair of my shoes.  They will go on sale every so often (usually when the next model is coming out) and I pair a couple pairs, as they are comfy and my feet like them.  I wouldn't say I have a problem, I am just looking ahead.  I usually retire a pair to work shoes, and have 2 pairs for running at any given time.  But my SO always wants me to get rid of a pair.  So getting a new pair in the house was going to be a bit of a problem...  Solved it by not taking the box.  Brought them home, put them in the old new pair box, which has not yet made it's way out of the closet.  Hey, she buys ice cream bars in boxes of 25.

Hahahaha! THAT was some sneaky genius

Ahhhh, yes. But then there's child's pose and happy baby to make up for it.

Great picture! I heard that the swim was really tough, did you find that to be true?

Ann Marie, I found this to be one of the hardest swims I have ever done.  Between the current pull, the degree of chop and murkiness and what felt at times like full on body combat around other swimmers that you just could not see it was BRUTAL.  The really cool thing is that for me there was NO kayak hugging or other stroke.  I never gave up and was only 1 minute slower than my PB oly swim time from 2009.

Yep - my preferred pose too.  Or as I call it 'lying-down-so-I-don't-die' pose. 

Awesome!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Check out your sig line

I can never seem to get corpsy enough.

Dude - you freakin' ROCK being DFL!

Gotta pass out. Salts, if you're swimming tonight, recycle.

Yeah ... came home really late on a travel day to a very drunk Mutti ... Kristin was beside herself with worry.

But yes, she is indeed, just very drunk, and puked a lot, and she's all puked out, and we're making sure she replenishes with plenty of liquid and electrolyte beverage

We need to just have a quiet word with the pastor and her church leader friends--somebody watch the booze and her during church meetings and festivities.

Hey, someone's gotta do it. May as well be me!

Happy Birthday to your dad too, TJ!! 

I agree. I just didn't want to be the first to say it!
