TAN#200: BicenTANial Bliss! (Page 78)

Hey everyone...

My boss did to me that thing I "hate".  Called him last night to give a report about planning commission and he says something like  "yeah, we have to talk.  I had a conversation with -insert name- to talk about what happened and we have some issues.  I can't talk now, so we can meet in the morning".

I HATE that.  Don't mention it unless you can elaborate.  Spent half the night getting worked up and defending myself about something I wasn't even sure what I did.

I was basically right, so it wasn't a complete waste of time thinking about it, but it also wasn't as serious either...

It's pretty good . I feel you. I had two vertebrae with fractures and the disc between them blew out. Hor-ren-dous pain. Ever since then, and with a lot of recurring pain there (and elsewhere!) from the disease that ate my joints, I've had to be really diligent about extension exercises / strength training / yoga (my choice for both of the above and general health). When I haven't been, it's been bad.

Know what's causing the pain? Doing any focused work to relieve it? Or is this a chronic struggle?

I finally got the bike-man bike rack in concrete, so I thought I would post it over there.  Brian gave me a link to a Philadelphia thing.  I don't know if I can redesign it to fit there specs.  But, I will try to look at it in the next few weeks.

I had an awesome slow-motion fall in London in a busy touristy area right before trying to ride down some steps. 

Thankfully the bike was fine and I was fine... the ego took a bit of a hit though. 

Dang - then I must have looked like the epitome of cool!  I don't think anyone could really replicate it, it was one of those where even while I was falling it seemed to take for-everrrrrrr to hit the ground. 

Hollywood should totally pay me to try and re-create it for some movie somewhere - no WAY they could CGI that sh*t! 

Hi Teej! 

I'm actually laughing right now (only because I know you are ok).  We have all done something like that.

I was going to ask if it was slow motion.  Only one crash for me happened fast.  All were slow motion and plenty of time to think "oh, this could hurt".

I want to give a shout out to our very own Lisa to say THANK YOU for sending an email in support of me being chosen to be a Betty for next year!  (no need to make this dirty, you pervs - it's a tri clothing line)

If any of you TAN kids want to help out, I would HUGELY appreciate it.  I've sent my application in already http://www.bettydesigns.com/pages/are-you-a-betty  and should anyone want to send an email on my behalf (just reference Monica MacLeod) to help me look kick-azz next season in Betty gear you can send it to: kristin[at]brandbetty[dot]com

P.S. - I think Lisa would make an awesome Betty too!!

Geez... THAT wore you out?  I thought it would have been all the crazy-azzed stuff from your workout. 

You get energized and delirious after a workout?  I usually feel like I need a nap. 

the one night i'm home from dinner before 1 am (weird italians) there is freaking cirque de soleil or some weird crap out in the street in front of my room, blasting music so you can hear it 3 blocks away, planned until 2 am.

wtf.  time to use my extra dose of sleeping pills mebbe?
