There is some pathetic 80's rock concert for the next two days at Merriweather so there's all these horrible people staying at the hotel. I mean they are perfectly nice, just their taste in clothes and music is horrible. And there are so many of them! Two guys even flew in from MEXICO to see these horrible bands, like Warrant and Whitesnake and Sebastian Bach. Yuck-o. To each their own, whatever. I just wish I wasn't working. Usually fridays are very relaxed and slow, but today we are busy, busy, busy and I hate it! I just want to sit on my butt and watch Bleach until it's time to leave.
This morning Shirley and Jake and I went on this bike ride for an hour and a half right around the immediate area where we live. It was really fun! I love riding bikes. We were exploring all of these bike paths that I had never been on before. It really makes me realize how lucky I am to live in a place that has so many beautiful wooded paths all interconnecting. I definately appreciate it. It was all cool and misty outside.
In other exercise news, I can officially jog for 2 miles straight! That is a huge accomplishment. I am one mile away from being able to run a 5k. I think I could probably do that by July, if I keep it up and don't get lazy in Israel. I can hardly believe that I can run for 2 miles. It astounds me every time I think about it. I just kept trying and trying and trying and trying and one day I could just do it! It's so much fun to run! I can do it in like 24 minutes too, that is like a 12 minute mile. I think I should try and improve on that time. Unfortunately it's supposed to rain for the next 7 days in a row. There's always the gym I guess.
In weight loss news, I guess that I didn't really gain weight or else I lost it because now I'm 140! Woot, that means I've lost 10 lbs since March. I keep gaining weight around my female troubles and that throws my weigh ins every once in a while. I always wonder about that on the Biggest Loser, do they take that kind of stuff into accound for the females? Or are they just totally screwed and therefor have to work 100 times harder than the males?? That would be so unfair.
In almost being crippled for life news, Cody almost crushed my foot. He was driving and I was in the backseat, and I said I had to get out and run back in the house to get something, so he pulled over and stopped. I opened the door and put my feet on the ground and for some unknown reason the car started slowly rolling forward, and it started rolling over my FOOT! I was trapped and it was getting more and more trapped and I started screaming "BACK UP BACK UP!! BACK THE FUCK UP!" Finally he understood and backed up, but by then I was in pretty bad pain and I sort of like limped away. I was in such panic and shock! Luckily my sneakers were thick soled and that protected my foot a little, and I could tell nothing was broken or anything but other than that I coudln't tell if I was severely injured or just a little hurt. So I was totally freaking out. I went up to my room and put a bag of frozen edamame on it and just layed there like so terrified that i'd never be able to walk again. I even cried for a minute or two because I was afraid that I woudln't be able to exercise anymore and then I would be crippled and just sit in bed eating cake all day and getting fat. But then after a few minutes I realized that it did hurt but I could move it all around and nothing was broken so I must be fine. And magically I was! It is still a little tender even though it was a few days ago, but it feels fine when I walk/jog/bike/stand so it's all good as far as I'm concerned. It's really scary how fast something can happen that could totally ruin your life. I feel so lucky that he wasn't accelerating faster, and that he heard me, and that it wasn't over my toes, and that my sneakers were thick. What if I had been wearing flip flops or something!!?? I don't even want to think about it.
I bought the BEST bathing suit in the WORLD! It is a Swim Dress. I don't know why i've never tried one before, but it was so great! It covers all of the areas I don't feel comfortable showing, and plus it looks like I'm wearing a cute little dress, but it's secretly a one peice bathing suit.
Here's a picture
That's all I have to say for now. Back to work I suppose!
