In Search of my Body...Not The One I Ate.. #4 "Inspiring Others... 1 Tiara at a Time"

[HockeyKat]

Shrimp salad! Of course. I knew prawns were shrimp, but the prawn mayo thing stumped me.

Aubergine... funny, I was thinking of stopping for an eggplant on the way home. I dipped those eggplant slices in egg beaters and non-stick fried them for the veggie lasagna and ate a few, and in the process thought that it would be a good side. Or maybe for eggplant parmesan? Mmmm.

OMG. Hold the phone.

KELLY.

You have a theme song. And a new nickname.

Did you know that I just this very minute appointed myself Keeper of the Thread Theme Songs? No? Well I did. Feel free to nominate yourself or others for a kicking theme song.

But Kelly, she's all sewn up.

I was just dancing it out with Emily (she's four) and it hit me.

"You got me trippin', stumblin', flippin', fumblin'...clumsy cause I'm falling in love, so in love with you"

It's perfect for our resident Bella who is also a newlywed and who we all fell for instantly! Also, Fergie's nickname is the Dutchess. Do I even need to explain the play on royalty from the UK there?

Here's the video for those of you who aren't acquainted with The Dutchess, aka Fergie.

Hmm. I'm going to start on the rest of you. Suggestions welcomed.

STOP THE PRESSES. BACK UP THE BUS
please. Someone tell me....DOPEY? Is there honestly and truly a DOPEY? Are you telling me, that I could do a 5K on Friday (easy peasy)....a 1/2 marathon on Saturday (easy peasy, once I've trained...) and a FULL marathon on Sunday (totally walking.) and get 4 medals?

Am I dreaming?????

No I would call it insanity... time to bring out the guys in the white coats....

Paula -today is Tuesday. Doesn't Tuesday=Jesse? [/B][/COLOR]

Yup - today is my appointment with Jesse.... actually looking forward to it. How about you? Did you have your session today?

Paula-glad to hear you got some good job news.

Thanks - it has been a roller coaster going through all of this, but it is starting to look like all will work out in the end - or at least for now it does...

I LOVE seeing what you eat. Like, prawn mayo? And courgette? I looked it up... courgette = zucchini!!


me too... I remember my grandmother bringing back Cadbury's drinking chocolate mix when she went to Ireland and man was that good stuff. It only came out on special occaissions since you couldn't get it here...

Paula, what's a standing pushup? How do you do it?

There is a bar placed at about 4' off the floor (we use one of the bars to hold the weights that you can bench press, etc. with). I stand about 4' back from the bar and then lean in with my hands on the bar and push up from there. Because of the makeup of my body (and frankly the amount of weight I am carrying on my midsection), I can't do a full pushup off the floor - even with my knees bent. Jesse tells me that we will work the bar lower and lower until I have enough strength to do full push ups off the floor.

I love the fact that this guy gets that my body won't let me do certain things and finds work arounds that work the muscles we want to work until I can the full on method. It does wonders for my confidence level since I am making forward progress and working towards a goal all in one.

Oh Lordy. Please don't hold this against me...but are you goin' for Fergie or Dutchess there...I'm confused (again. I KNOW. But I can't help it. It's just my natural state of being )

Yup - today is my appointment with Jesse.... actually looking forward to it. How about you? Did you have your session today?

My "session"....sounds like therapy. Actually...in a way, it is. But no. We don't go to a Tue/Thur schedule until next week. This week is actually Saturday due to a conflict...

 

[SeptemberGirl]

I think Fergie. One word. Easier than two to type!

Hmm, Nancy, what's your thread theme song? Thinking...

I remember you telling me that now... my mind is on total overload today. It is a wonder I can remember my name. It's Erika right? I am talking about exercising so it must be Erika.... (love you...)

Kat - Oh my goodness, CSI! It was awesome, I nearly fell off the crosstrainer!

Shrimp salad, we call it here. Maybe tomorrow you can have aubergine! (Eggplant, to us).

AIM is Instant Messanger. You sign up for it, download it. Easy peasy. If you have a gmail or yahoo account you already have a login.

I love Aubergine! You call it Eggplant? That sounds as strange to me as sticks of butter!
Sounds easy enough to do Instant Messanger, I think I'll look into it!

OMG. Hold the phone.

The words of the song (I don't think I know the song) are very appropriate for me! (See above - me nearly falling off the crosstrainer!)
I like having a theme tune!

The nickname is excellent, Fergie - I love it!

 

[HockeyKat]

After that Dopey medal desire, I just hear Freak... Out.... So for Nancy, Chic - Le Freak. Here, for your youtube viewing pleasure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMgR-jGoSXQ

You know I am just teasing you though, right?


Paula, I get it now! I bet those are hard. They SOUND hard. Have fun with Jesse!!

Yes, it was a doozy!! I love that show. Although I really think CSI:NY is more a fav of mine for whatever reason. Maybe because it is still new to me, I just started getting into it a few mos ago when they starting showing it twice a night in re-runs.

I am an AIM addict, just ask Liz and E and Amy. I spend my whole day at work sitting at a computer, and we use it at work as well, so I am on all the time although I can't always respond right away if someone is at my desk or something.

 

[3DisneyKids]

I want a theme song, too! My turn! Me next!

 

[SeptemberGirl]

E. Start shooting me songs. I"m going through the my iTunes now. Email me. I have ideas. We need to collaborate.

 

[3DisneyKids]

I really think it has to be Running Down a Dream. Right?

 

[SeptemberGirl]

That's your running song...I'm not sure it's your thread song. It's on the short list, though.

Work on Lyz's. We'll confer.

 

[3DisneyKids]

Other possibilities...

--I wanna be Sedated
--A Pirate Looks at 40
--Time of your Life (because I love all of the phases of my life!)

Ok, those are off the top of my head. Need to think more.

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

That's Easy. Superfreak.

Do you mean the Dirty Dancing one or the Green Day on?

That's Easy. Superfreak.

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Ok. Don't have time for this. Wanted to see if there was any hub-bub Bub. Later.

 

[SeptemberGirl]

OMG. I have a GOOD one for Erika. Who wants in? We must discuss without her knowing. Hahahaha.

totally random off topic comment..

When I was volunteering at the water stop at the full, I saw a runner with an "I run with vampires" shirt...I think it is from Hot Topic. They just need to make it into a tech shirt and they could sell tons of them!!

That is super awesome. I know you can get those on Cafe Press and Zazzle. Why not order one on a tech shirt??? How cool would that be?
