Change in plans to my race calendar.  I have to back out of the half marathon this weekend.  My husband is too busy at work to go with me, I don't think I want to drive to Atlanta by myself, my knee is sore, I haven't been training.  The list of reasons go on and on.  I'm disappointed, but I think it's for the best.

Artemis - 2010-03-17 1:15 AM Nibbs, my morning has been less than stellar.  Do not throw your coffee cup in your purse when it is open and is not empty.  It creates a bad morning for you and panic as you realize your wallet and iPhone are now covered in coffee, sugar, and cream.  Not to mention my purse had a giant puddle that I dumped out at a stop light.

Looks like the phone is ok, though, so that's a win.


Oh no! Glad the phone is ok - time to go shopping for a new purse?


No.  It's actually made out of recycled seatbelts and very durable.  I can send it back to the company and they will professionally clean it for $20, which is what I'm going to do.  I love the purse and have only had it for less than a month.

It doesn't look like anything is stained too badly.  My wallet was pretty dark and you can't really tell except that it smells like coffee.  I switched wallets to let it dry out. 
There are worse smells in the world than "coffee." Glad you're able to keep the purse. Recycled seatbelts sound really cool.


It's true.  The car doesn't really smell, either. 

Here's where I get my purses (and specifically the one I dumped coffee in): http://www.seatbeltbags.com/tolocoto.html

Artemis - 2010-03-17 10:46 AM Overall, yesterday finished great.  I went out with three of my girls to go dress shopping.  I need a dress for L's rehearsal dinner and SL needed a dress for L's wedding.  I found an adorable faux-wrap dress, but SL didn't find anything, so we get to do it again.  Then we went out for dinner and drinks.  It was great.  I really needed it.

Today is also going better.  Got some sleep, resisted the urge for a bacon egg and cheese McGriddle (yogurt instead) and Irish Creme flavored coffee.
Obviously, I need to spend more time on Nibbs because I don't know what event this is.... Irish Creme flavored coffee? Ummmmm. That sounds good.


I don't know if I mentioned it.  My good friend is getting married April 17th.  I am playing viola in her wedding, so I need a dress for both the wedding (ordered) and the rehearsal dinner (purchased).  Now I just need to practice more.

Tried to find a pic of the dress I just bought, but couldn't find it.  I'm wearing this dress (in graphite) to the actual wedding:  http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WeddingParties/Wedding_Bridesmaid/dresses/silkchiffon/PRDOVR~97893/97893.jsp
Her bridesmaids are wearing chiffon dresses from J Crew in pale pink and the flower girl (our friend who is 24) is wearing a different dress in graphite like me.


And the Irish Creme coffee was delicious.

Well, good thing you've become friends with the OWS then, because it's not too long before you can dump the pool in favor of the OW.

Just think, no more chlorine!

I am making homemade energy bars!

My energy bars have rolled oats (certified gluten free), shredded coconut, peanut butter, pumpkin puree, a bit of maple syrup, chopped pecans, raisins, a bit of cinnamon and a dash of salt.

They are in the oven right now. I'll know how they turn out in twenty minutes or so.

The bit I licked off of my hands tasted good though.
