Taser Roasted Peeps (Page 56)

tlnewman30 - 2009-03-10 9:02 PM I managed to get my peach in today.  Unfortunatly I am getting wisdom teeth removed on friday, so this weekend will most likely not be peach.  Oh well, can win them all

Eek!  Good luck with that!  Rest up and take it easy!

I wear a sports bra under my tri shirt that also has a built in bra.  You do need to invest in a sports bra that is comfortable.  I've been able to wear mine for hours and no problems.

Does not sound like fun.  I remember when I had my first wisdom tooth taken out, I played tennis later that day.  When I got the other three out, I was so drugged that I couldn't do anything.  Hope it all goes well for you.

OBTW...that guy is my boss that waved everyone in! and he is such a nice person...at the time..I thought what a jerk! goes to show that first instincts are not always correct!

ok...done rambling! I also would like to play on a coed team...but I think I now would be have to find a senior softball team to play on!!! OUCH! reality check! IM OLD!!!! ;(

I was a mess after they took out my wisdom teeth.  My whole face hurt for days - I couldn't wait until it was time to take more pain killers!  I swelled up and had bruises.  I looked like I'd been on the losing end of a fight.

Ha!  There is nothing better than belting one over their heads!  Or diving for a shot down the line and gunning them out at first.  Only takes once before they get the idea that you're a ball player!

I was a sports fanatic as well - softball, basketball, swimming thru high school.  And in college I moved on to rugby.  Now that was fun!  Nothing better than a full contact sport to get your aggression out!

I have a lap counter on my watch too....but found it hard to reach across each lap and push it so I just use it for splits and forwarding my ipod...love this watch! and love data!!!

and kept having issues trying to remember what lap I was on when I shared a lap with a really cute boy who had one on! I noticed it cuz it was bright yellow and did I say he was a really cute boy!??! as I was exiting he stopped long enough for me to ask him and he went into detail that it counts your laps, does split times, fast lap time and slow lap time! I was in love.....yes, with the watch! he was a cute boy, though! haha

and they do make the suction cup thingys...not sure what they are called but have seen them on ebay in my searches! you would love the ring....

http://www.swimmingmatters.ca/stopwatchs/sportcount-chrono-100-lap-counter.html check out this link to a website to the one like I have....love it!

I would think that you would be one good ball snagger and catcher! specially with that nozzle! :P be nice, Dee, I am speaking of your avatar! dont get the taser out yet!!!

just gave my dd my old GARMIN 305...and when she got it she could not get it to work...so being the good mother I am...I bought her the new 405...funny I just got off the phone with her and she LOOOOOOOOOOOVES it! she said it gives her much more then her last watch did...and she said some she still has to figure out....

I have a POLAR S150 watch...displays heart rate as beats per minute

can program workouts with target heart range target zones and recovery calcs. records the entire file of the exercise

has a lap timer!

cycling: speed an distance (hard wired sensor)....have a computer on bike that I get this info from....but I do like it! I am not that hard core that i need the garmin.

Hope this helps! everyone I have talked to said that the 405 is the one to have!

I love data...but not that much!..not sure I can drop another $300 to get one for me!??!

good luck! dont drive yourself home! I got a ticket on the way home from having mine pulled! luckily the guy was nice and when he saw me all puffed out on all sides...he slowly walked up to the car and said what happen to you...and because I could not talk due to all the gauze in my mouth I just gave the motions of teeth being pulled with a little grunt for each pull....he asked me why i didnt have someone driving me home and I tried to tell him...my huhhhbans iiis aw ay and my paaarets are out ov town...and he just told me to go...home and get in bed!

I ran into this same policeman a few days later when I was out riding my bike...he was a motorcycle cop who was on the side with his radar gun out and I recognized him right away...I went up to him and thanked him....he looked at me and said....ah the woman who had her teeth pulled! and I just laughed and told him i carry gauze all the time and pull that every time I get pulled over! his eyes got really big and I did want him to know I was kidding...so I immediately let him know I was joking that I really appreciated him not ticketing me! I was lucky! could have slapped it to me! I was barrelling thru a school zone! not good!

sorry! didnt want to confuzle you!!

Thank you everyone so very much for your input to my 20 questions!

Julie ~ I'm on Oahu.  There is a local shop here that specializes in tri stuff and I've told my hubby that we need to go down and check it out in the next couple of weeks.

The suction cup thingy is the Finis Lap Track:

Never used it myself, but it seems like a good idea.

I use my pull buoy to count laps (move it over a brick), but even then, will lose count. The best way is by time, though. If your pool has a big swim clock or by your watch and if you know your average lap time, some quick math should tell you how many laps. The swim clock is easier than a digital watch for me because I don't have to remember numbers, just the position of the clock hands.

YOU COULD DROP THE PENNIES DOWN TO THE BOTTOM THE POOL AT THE END OF EACH LAP.

and then go down and retrieve them (just like when we were kids!) at the end of your swim.  smile.

i LOVE the ducky idea and the rocks.

i thought of using plastic spoons or forks too.

i did chk the websites,  THANK you guys.

i have bone to pick though, went on the website and there was NO CUTE BOY!!  what up w that???  LOL

ooooooh. i get it  hes doesnt actually come w the lap counter he was attached to.

DAMNITALL....

i REALLY NEED A CUTE BOY to share a lane with.  any links for that???

most times im sharing a lane w middle aged bald men that THINK they are STILL athletes.   crack me up

seriously THANKS so much to all of you for the suggestions/links et al.

i KNOW where to come now when i have a question....

oooh, speaking of questions, im paying close attention to the HRM conversation.

i have a barebones ie cheapest one i could find, it only does HR.

i keep looking at the GARMIN and the POLAR but not sure which one i want.

mothersday and my birthday are coming up soon, hubby is always good about getting me running or cycling or swimming SWAG, though i usually end up doing the purchasing myself, cuz hes clueless when it comes to that stuff.  a GREAT hubby, just...

HAVE A HAPPY!

those are the best teams to play against! I am a good batter and my dh and I would go to the batting cages and practice and one game we played I came up to bat...guess my number four position in the line up didnt warn them that I was the sweep and could bat better then some of the guys who had never really played before (our team sucked but we had fun doing so) and the pitcher turned to the outfielders and waved them in...they came in....and he turned around and waved them further in....and then he turned and pitched to me....I belted one over thier heads and ended up getting an inside the park home run thanks to his miscalculations.....it was funny cuz when we played them later in the year...he seemed to remember that I was cabable of hitting and did not pull his little antics of come in boys...its a girly batting! showed him! we still lost big time! and I grew up in a family of sports playing fanatics...played basketball 7 years, baseball 8, volleyball 1, tennis team, 2 years, never played soccer! and even though I swam on the swim team I must have been thier handicap cuz I suk at it now! I do remember getting a few ribbons...

OBTW...that guy is my boss that waved everyone in! and he is such a nice person...at the time..I thought what a jerk! goes to show that first instincts are not always correct!

ok...done rambling! I also would like to play on a coed team...but I think I now would be have to find a senior softball team to play on!!! OUCH! reality check! IM OLD!!!! ;(

i tell him all the time, when hes acting like a complete you know what... 

HOW MANY SHOTS CAN ONE TAKE TO THE HEAD?? 

course they were always pretty liquored up afterwards.

NOT suggesting YOU'VE lost your mind....

RUGBY.  who invents a sport like that?

glad im not the only one.

my brother was the athlete. and i got dragged to every practice every game.

i got really good at watching, cheering even would run the scoreboard at the hockey games, that and the snack bar!!  i got really good at the running the hot chocolate machine.  LOL.

misty water colored memories

of the way we were.
