Sometimes you see something so amazing you stare speechless. This is one of those things.

Sniffle

We went out to Chili's last night for a free meal. I had lettuce wraps and a Chocolate Paradise Pie. Hey, protien and carb portion, right? Anyway, I decided to try Dustin's technique of shooting from the hip and decided my camera's shutter speed is just too fast. It turned out kinda cool anyway though. Thanks for the tip, Dustin!

I've had a bit of a cold. I guess standing out in the windy cold drizzle will do that to you. Honestly, there has been something going around work, so I think that I came down with whatever it was. BUT, I kept popping Esther Cs and Airbornes so it didn't hit me that hard. I took some cold medicine and slept yesterday afternoon.

Because of this I haven't worked out since Wednesday. But the good news is, I think I'm feeling good enough to where sprinting today shouldn't cause a relapse. But ohhh, its been so much fun to sit home and play with GIMP and City of Heroes.

But I know I've got to get back to working out, so I'm going to sprint here today. Yay for running outside! My hamstrings will thank me tomorrow (Har Har...). The only bad thing is I don't yet have a belt clip for my iPod. I think I'm going to order one from iFrogz. One of the girls in the office got one, and they're really cute. You can even get a custom picture put on the wheel cover, and she got one of the pictures of her hubby on their honeymoon put on there. Too Cute!

OhSnap!

My iPod came in!! YaYYY!!!

Sooo excited!

It came in a 'leee-tle' box, which for some reason cracked me up. Okay, okay, so its just a little box, but in my head I hear "Its a leeee-tle box!"

My back is so much better than it was last week. I was even able to go do my upper body workout with pretty much full intensity last night, I just couldn't do anything lying down. I'm just glad I was able to get through it without pain in my lower back. I also walked/jogged the dog yesterday, so far, so good. I'm going to try sprints outside today, as the massage therapist forbade me from using the elliptical machine until my back is completely better.

The dog and I went to PetSmart night before last and got her some of her old Nutro Ultra food, and that stopped the sickness. She feels better, but she's a little annoyed I think because it doesn't taste as good as the Bil-Jac. Monday night I had to sit in the floor with her and throw her food on the ground so she would eat. She wasn't interested in it when it was in her bowl. She's such a silly dog...when it was on the floor, I could see her thinking "Oh my! Its on the floor! Mom dropped something, I better scarf it up!!!" and then she would walk to her bowl and go "Mehhh, nahhhh, I don't really like that stuff."

I found this story talking about how fainting passengers are the top reason for subway delays. And the people are fainting because they're "loosing weight" for their New Year's resolution so they aren't eating. I don't know, do people really think not eating is a healthy way to loose weight? Common sense should tell them otherwise.

Also, Apple announced its iPhone yesterday. Shiney! Its $499 for the 4GB model, and $599 for the 8GB model, and cingular has a multiple-year exclusive contract on it. I'm already at cingular...and I've been wanting an iPod....hmmmm. I probably won't get it though, I like my Razor, and I think it makes more economical sense for me to keep the phone I have and get an iPod. It sure is purdy though.
