I'd rather be...

READING!


I tend to go through reading phases.


There's the phase where I'm flipping through the pages of a book so fast the words are blurry and I can't put it down and I can't wait to pick up another.


There's the phase where it takes me two weeks to get through the first chapter of a book and the reading is slow, (maybe I have to concentrate more?) but the book is good so I continue on, until, two months later, I finish the book.


Then there's the phase where I don't want to read books and I only read magazines.



Well this book has me in the can't put this book down reading so fast the words are blurry phase.
I picked it up at Hastings (LOVE this store!) in the used book section and since I've read other books by Emily Giffin (she ROCKS) the 6.99 price made me very happy!

It's fun, easy reading.
Therefore I have no time to think up funny, witty, inspirational blogs.
just FYI
gotta go read

Happy Hump Day

Good afternoon! I hope everyone is having a wonderful week! Happy Hump Day! This week is flying by for me, I guess because I have so much going on...thank goodness we're on the downhill...oh...and, speaking of hills, I have that monster hill to run tonight...3 times!

We bought our flights to SAN FRAN today! Whoop!
There's something about seeing the flight confirmation email in your inbox. It's so exciting!

And we had our "recommitment party" last night.
It was a pot luck.
Everything was delicious.
I ate too much!
There were chips and dip, salad, baked ziti, curry, brisket...and for dessert...cherry cobbler and HOMEMADE ice cream. (no wonder the scale was reading so high today! ha!) Of course the food and socializing were not the point of the party, it was to turn in our paperwork for the race. Exciting!

I've never been to California so I am really excited to see what all this hype is about.
