It's been a while since we had a "YARC" post. All Bow to the Queen, Judy the beautiful and Merciful:snooty:

Let's all have the attitude, today and every day, that we is SOMEBODY!!! Don't let anyone steal your joy. We are power and grace and beauty, every last one of us, even me.

We are kindness and love and caring. But we are so much more. We are warriors who train to go one on one with the distance. We go where others fear to go. We will, with our sweat and courage, win! Our victory is the best kind, it's a victory over the evils that challange us every day.

The civilized world is destroying it's self with the "Good Life". Over weight and under activity is killing them. We are a tiny spark of light in that darkness, and even the smallest light shines in the dark.pirate:

We are priates we don't conform to the "comfort" of the norm. We dare to seek adventure and we dare to stretch our limits.

Yep, I know, "I ain;t right", but there are plenty of other pirates on here to.

OK, I was considering wearing my really sassy running skirt to the gym today that I have never worn because it's a bit ahem, bold... (it's like a 60s mod print). It's not that much on adventure, but it is stretching my limits! That's it- I'm doing it! Maybe I'll even try to strut a little... Look out, TM!:rotfl:

Even Mickey isn't helping as rumors of a new DDP option that will include 3 Table Service(or counter service) meals and 2 snacks a day:eek: Old DDP was too much food and now this. Now you can have 3 app, 3 entress, and 3 desserts and 2 snacks a day:sad2: How many calories is that!!! And only for the low price of $69.99 a day you can exelerate your death while on vacation.

Can't exercise anywhere near to burn off part of that food.

I just stepped on the soap box.

Hoist the main sail and shiver me timbers matey. I don't think this Captain pirate: (at least until the wife gets home and then I'm just another swab) or my entire crew could eat that much. In the old days (a few weeks ago?), I might have tried though. Don't forget, the table service also includes the all you can eat buffets.
 
I'm really for some swashbuckling adventure too! So today for cross training I'll hop on my lavendar comfort bike, no high tech road bike or tough looking mountain bike for me. No way man, I got me a lavendar bike and a purple helmet and I'lll be lookin' smooth in my Billy Bowlegs 5k Pirate t-shirt too. I'll put Trixie the Wonderdog, my mini dachshund, in her backpack carrier and off we will go down the highway daring the timid couch potatoes to mess with us and risk walking the plank.....pirate:

OK ok ok, I wasn't gonna do it, cuz it's so hot. But I will I tell ya. I'm goin' out there as soon as DH leaves for his meeting soon and put in those steps, even if they be few.

Tell me though...but why is the rum gone?

:wave:
 
Well, If we be Pirates, then DH and I "pirated" pirate: the golf range this afternoon! pirate: pirate:

That was a walk on the wild side, at least for me because I sure don't get out there very often, so I was well out of my comfort zone! I was acutally pleasantly surprised at how well I did! I found myself driving the ball farther than I usually do, so I'm planning to go back and try it again soon.
 
Sure, I'll be a pirate. I even found out what my pirate name is:

Your pirate name is:
Captain Jenny Bonney

Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

Wanna try? http://www.piratequiz.com/
 
OK, Leana, I bit!! Mad Anne Rackham pirate: here!! :lmao: Dave, this is for you...

Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

But, Dave, National "Talk Like a Pirate Day" is Sept 19th. So, if we get our names now..we'll be all ready!!

I've even got the "peg leg" with my ortho boot!
 
OMG! I'm Mad Bess Kidd. (Where'd the Bess come from? :confused3 )

The site said: Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. Yep, that's me. :rotfl2:
 
Aye Mates, Iron Dave Ripper is on deck.

Today we seek revenge. Today and today only you may make any person from your past, that you wish, walk the plank and be eaten by the Cracken.

I choose my old manager from LensCrafters. She is here-by sentenced to walk the plank and be Cracken food.

Anyone else have a deserving person to feed the Cracken.

Dave, "YARC" :hippie:
 
Ahoy there!

I'm Captain Jenny Kidd. I wonder if I can train my 1 year old to call me that. :lmao:

So, reporting back on my sassy Pirate skirt-- it's a good thing I was wearing it, because I had one of those "character building" runs where I wanted to get off the TM in about the first 10 minutes. Then I thought "you can't just look the part, you have to BE the part!" I slowed down a bit and made it to 3 miles.

When I plugged my info into my nikeplus site, it showed I've taken off 1 day from running in the last 8 days. You think I would know that I was out of control, but I had to actually see it. I've run 17 miles since Sunday! So I'm taking today and maybe tomorrow off.

OH, here's classic YARC (in my opinion). I have this party to go to in 2 weeks. It's a luau at a pool. So I'm complaining that I have nothing to wear, but stores don't have summer stuff anymore. How'd I resolve it? I bought new running shoes! :woohoo: (Here's my thinking- I'll just find something questionably appropriate that I already own, but I'm saving money by doing that-- money that can be spent on running! Nice, huh!?)

As for people who could walk the plank, how about the people in my office who keep bringing bad food? First it was bags of chocolate like M&Ms and Snickers. I avoided the candy, but then right next to the refrigerator where I went to get a Diet Dr. Pepper today were Donut holes!!! (There's only 4 of us in the office, and 1 is my DH who is also trying to eat healthy, so the other 2 know better!) Walk the plank, saboteurs!! pirate:

Dirty Anne Vane ?!? :scared1: I even answered that I shower daily! I prefer a ship with hot running water and a nice pool for a cool-down.

Maybe we can claim the "Magic" as our ship?
 
I be: Iron Will Rackham. It didn't say in the summary, but I think that may make me Mad Anne's younger twin brother by different parents.
 
Iron Will!!! pirate: There you are!! :lmao:
