  1. I signed up to run a half marathon this Saturday.
  2. I’m not even nervous – yet.
  3. My daughter asked if Josie was going to be a Saint Dane.
  4. Yes, I think she will forever now be a Saint Dane.
  5. Even though she looks absolutely nothing like a Saint Bernard nor a Great Dane.
  6. THANKFULLY!
  7. I’m am practically a master player of Plants vs. Zombies.
  8. Except that I have to actually have possession of MY VERY OWN IPAD in order to play.
  9. The split second I put it down, my kid takes it, and when she doesn’t have it my husband does.
  10. Should a zombie attack our house, we would know what to do.
  11. The zombies wearing buckets on their heads need a triple tap, while those with orange road cones only need a double tap.
  12. Of course, I’m not sure where we’d find all of those attack plants.
  13. Do you think Stein’s carries a peashooter?

  1. I ran 2 miles on Monday.
  2. I ran 6 miles on Wednesday.
  3. I’m supposed to run 16 miles on Saturday.
  4. But here’s the thing, the Badgerland Striders has a build-up run on Saturday morning down at the lake front.
  5. It’s 18 miles.
  6. I think I’m going to give it a try.
  7. The organizer of the run guaranteed me that I’d have fun.
  8. And that there would be a lot of runners in my 13 minute mile pace.
  9. It starts at 7:30 a.m.
  10. 7:30 a.m.
  11. Like in the morning.
  12. Very early.
  13. We’ll see.

• Thursday 13: The pup, my hair, iPad & guts

  Date: 2010.07.01 | Category: Thursday 13 | Response: 2

  1. I have survived 33 days with the puppy.
  2. I think she’s doubled in size.
  3. She has an infinite love for rawhide flip chips.
  4. Last month my hair was really, really short.
  5. This month it’s grown out enough where I could style it like Justin Bieber — if I wanted to.
  6. I am debating if I should do it just to mortify my husband and kid.
  7. I’m not sure my husband knows who Justin Bieber is though.
  8. What I really need is a new hair color.
  9. I’m getting the hang of my iPad, it’s pretty cool.
  10. I love the NY Times Crossword Puzzle app.
  11. That stomach virus I had it still messing with my gut and just about everything I eat or drink makes me feel terrible.
  12. Which means that I have zero energy and am now two weeks behind on training for the Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon.
  13. Let’s hope that I’ll be fully recovered by next Friday for wine club — priorities you know.

• Thursday 13: My new iPad

  Date: 2010.06.17 | Category: Thursday 13 | Response: 0

  1. My husband gave me an iPad for my birthday.
  2. It’s the 64GB with Wifi, I didn’t want the 3G because I figured I didn’t need to have ANOTHER data plan.
  3. I really wanted the iPad.
  4. And I was beyond giddy that he actually went to the Apple store, picked one out, and bought it for me.
  5. He despises Apple.
  6. And Google too.
  7. I find the iPad’s simplicity to be too complex and I’m highly frustrated by it.
  8. I can’t even remember why I wanted it in the first place.
  9. My daughter has filled it up with Farm Story, Pac-Man, Scoops, Solitaire, reMovem, Tris, Memory Cards, Mahjong Lite, Parking Lot and Radiation.
  10. She’s keeping a very close eye on her lilies, daisies and tulips.
  11. I installed the jumbo calculator, USA Today, ABC Player, and the Netflix app.
  12. I think I’m going to stream Dr. Horrible from Netflix.
  13. Tomorrow I’m going to a class called: “Meet Your New iPad”.

• Thursday 13: The weekend

  1. I’ve got the weekend all to myself.
  2. My husband and daughter are going to Rhinelander to help my in-laws with their auction.
  3. They aren’t taking the puppy.
  4. I can’t go because of the puppy.
  5. If I board her then all of my house training will be for nothing.
  6. This means that I could have had the entire house to myself to lay around and do nothing if I wouldn’t have accidentally gotten a puppy.
  7. There was so much potential!
  8. And now my weekend all to myself will be sandwiched between really long walks with my dogs.
  9. And saying ‘Josie no!’ a zillion times.
  10. I think I deserve a massage.
  11. And then a double feature at the movies.
  12. Chick flicks for sure.
  13. And a HUGE bowl of ice cream after every meal.
