Show us your Ghoulies - Halloween Run Challenge Page #3 (Page 62)

ceilidh - 2009-10-23 2:17 PM Have lovely Fridays all. I am hoping not to suck to much on my 10 K tomorrow.

Alot more to choose from it you are willing to buy french wine.  It is getting more popular in California, so there are some vineyards that have planted the grape.  Rabbit Ridge makes a decent inexpensive bottle.  Patio/pool sipper.

Tonight's wine is Louis M. Martini Napa Special Reserve.  Terrific wine for about $30 - less if you get a case discount.  Worth it to stock up on.  We are going to a "dive" Italian joint tonight.  Should be fun. 

Will look for Gnarly next time I'm shopping for wine.

aspeelma - 2009-10-23 2:36 PM Good Evening Ghoulies!!!

I had to do it in two short sessions today but I am up to 78.1% complete.

I had hoped to do more, but after not really eating or drinking anything the past 2 days I just couldn't do it.

I'll make up the extra half mile on Sunday's long run.

Have a good evening Ghoulies, I have pages and pages to read to keep up.

iowagander - 2009-10-24 11:43 PM

Quite possible Glad to see I'm not the only Ghoulie doing some late night haunting tonight.

aspeelma - 2009-10-23 3:01 PM Tom - I thought I was finally going to pass your run total, but you're still ahead of me, but not by much.

I'll get on top of you yet IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!!!

Just wanted to give you a little mental image for the evening.

Enjoy!

Howdy everyone - just got back from an emergency visit to the YMCA and it was great.

My DD is competing tonight and the wife and M-I-L took her so it was my son and I.  He gets home from school, the phone rings, and he is invited to go rock climbing (indoor), so I pack my gym bag, eat some dinner with him, drop him off, and hit the Y - great times!

Girl Passing on Left - 2009-10-24 11:50 PM

iowagander - 2009-10-24 11:53 PM

Slept in today, plus good-old insomnia. Almost bedtime here too.

Girl Passing on Left - 2009-10-24 11:57 PM

you sleepy now tom?

iowagander - 2009-10-24 11:54 PM

Don't worry, I got it. Nothing like turning bright red at work for no apparent reason to my coworkers.

iowagander - 2009-10-24 11:58 PM

Yes I am. Thanks for the assist Jules.

It's been said before, and it'll be said again - you're a giver!

iowagander - 2009-10-24 6:07 PM Good afternoon Ghoulies. I spent the day helping some Boy Scouts earn their weather merit badges, and then I snuck in 3.5 miles. Not too bad. Now to figure out dinner...

Girl Passing on Left - 2009-10-25 1:03 AM

Girl Passing on Left - 2009-10-25 1:04 AM

I just got home from work and was happy to see that I was not tooooooooooo far behind in trying to catch up!!! haha

you getting excited for you HM???

serendipity - 2009-10-25 7:46 AM Morning Ghoulies!

Just in from a 4.94 mile run.  Was supposed to be 4 miles, but I thought I'd go for 5.  Didn't quite get there, but almost!

Adding that extra effort 'cause I love my Ghoulies!  (And to stay above that yellow line!)

skrtrnr - 2009-10-25 8:24 AM

OH JULES.  how i wish i could have seen this message BEFORE i turned off the computer and try to go back to sleep. 

i could have used some company.

i fell asleep fine, early.  about 9 pm.  we came home from our neighborhood soiree.  so. much. fun.

then it was about 12:00 wide awake couldnt fall back to sleep.

so, i thought id chk my email, my msgs on facebook, and then here in BT.

had a glass of milk.  took two ibuprofen (sometimes they 'relax' me)

when i was looking in my inbox/email i saw someone left me a msg on meetup.com, so i went to chk out the msg/see who it from.

a total stranger left me this msg, that kinda freaked me out.  nothing major. 

the msg said:  'YOU ARE EXTREMALY (misspelled) ATTRACTIVE'

thats it.  nothing else.

i dont know, had any guy here on BT, SOMEONE IVE GOTTEN TO KNOW on a challenge thread or somewhere, sent me a msg telling me how extremely attractive i was i would have been like, WOO HOOO.

but the fact that this came from somone i didnt even know/not someone ive met.  who doesnt even participate in a group that ive participated in, i dont know it just FREAKED ME OUT.

so of course, not being able to fall back to sleep, and not feeling 'well' i started thinking, this guy could show up at one of my MEET UPS, and what he was one of THOSE guys, ya know....YIKERS.

theres a block function on the site, so i can keep him from sending me any more msgs, but....

on the site, i reply what meetings im planning on going to, when/where....

all he needs to do is go to the pages of the groups that im a part of, see if ive RSVP for that particular meet up, and voila he knows where i am and when im going to be there.

im trying NOT to be so anxious...im figuring its was inappropriate, but harmless.

but its got me SO wigged out.

i feel like im going to be 'looking over' my shoulder every time i go to a Meetup, meetup which is SUCH a bummer too.  i really enjoy my Chic Lit Club.  and the biking group.  and the NOW/Eckhart Tolle too.

just when i was starting to 'get out there' more.

UGHISH.

any suggestions, JULES, OTHERS as to what i should do?

i just think you cant be too careful, but then again, i dont want to be 'swept away' in sensationalized headlines either.
