Mad Mutant Manatee Mentors 4--CLOSED (Page 9)

Ok. If i can squeeze a few beers in tonight, i'm sure everything will be fine. that is what you mean, isn't it????

oohh. Viscious.    I like your thinking.

9.15 am. just weighed myself. It seems i will be running tomorrow at my heaviest weight since i started a year ago. I thought i was supposed to be making progress.

Will skip breakfast. Still digesting last nights stuff anyway.

Do you think that a little run this morning is a good or bad idea with my race tomorrow??

FYI i haven't run any further than 6 km since my Oly last August, and i have only done that once (last Sunday to see if i had the legs for it).

And he's also good at football???? that's just not fair on the rest of us

Thanks for posting my info Jayne, I forgot to post. Wow, so cool seeing my name move from the DL to racing 70.3!!

Good luck to all the racers this weekend

Landed in Jakarta safely in the midst of a helluva tropical storm. It's always a cyclone on travel days!

The Hobbit Maid cried when I left the Funny Farm. Out of relief, probably.

I miss my wicked little furry ones.

Oh and I had a crapload to do before I left, of course, and wouldn't you know it the moment I wake up I've got blurry colors and partial vision happening--impending migraine!

Staved off at the pass--the horrendous pain, nausea, photophobia, phonophobia never came on THANK GOD!!!--but felt pretty awful and wiped out as if I'd had one, it was just the aftermath (that's normal. For me, anyway, and some other migrainous people). Also the blurry colors lack of vision persisted for hours and did not help.

But I'm here, and the driver and I are crawling through Jakarta traffic (never helped by a storm) and we might make it home in three hours or so. Maybe two if we're lucky.

Froggy, Froggy, Froggy. You know better than to try to pull all sorts of Yantis like that! Lightweight! Well, at least you're a lightweight at something, the rest of it will come off later.

Not at all. Go swim. Also if any tears have appeared or anything's wrong with the zipper, you still have time to fix it. Always thoroughly check and if possible test your gear before races.

Go Tejas!

I have revised my traffic estimate to 4 hours.

I'm hungry.

I wonder if McDonald's will deliver to my car? It's not like we're moving.

Oh hey! You survived seminar day intact ... seemingly

I think the best thing to come out of that was chick-chip cookies.

Dog's not gonna die, spray some Febreze on yourself (on the dog, too, hey why not) and it's south Florida, not Cuba--whatever you forget, they'll have there.

This ride has turned into one of those space-time continuum disturbances wherein the longer we're on the road, the longer yet our destination gets.

Of course, that's Jakarta traffic every day.

i can't start the day without a shower!  dog is walked now and I'm showered and trying to pack without Gunnar noticing because he gets so excited and starts the famous german shepherd whine when he sees he is going on a trip!  oh, and i'm going to make a run to Einstein's for coffee and a bagel.  I may be procrastinating.
