Something About Nothing.........#7

Sad article regarding the triathlon yesterday. Can't believe we didn't hear anything about it while there:

http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2009908100376

Hm - I'm a 43 year old woman - maybe this isn't a good sign! We were talking about the swim after the race and wondering why that wasn't the last event instead of the first. That way if it was colder out, at least the water would have a little chance to warm up. And if it was hot like yesterday, it would feel good to hit the water for the swim after biking and running. Royce commented that it was probably because of people like him who would drown after doing all the other events. Guess he might have been not too far off the mark!

Incidentally, if you want to know how "well" I did, I placed 221th out of 256 women overall and 32nd out of 44 in my age bracket. Guess I'm not going to make a living this way! I was, however, 36th after the swim of those 256 people, so you can see where my strength is!

Lawrence - glad to see you back here and that you're getting the teeth taken care of. I'm sure it's miserable now, but you'll be glad in the future. Did they give you anything for the pain? Are you working on getting all of the teeth out? I can't even imagine!

Yes they are working on getting them all out and I have only got like 16 left and they did give me loratab for the pain ad ibuprofen for inflamation but I am in a whole lot less pain with them out now but just dealing with my gums being swollen but I guess thats too be expected

Happy Monday, Homies! It's the dog days of summer -- how are you going to keep cool?

Maria

kind of difficult to stay warm where i am with the exception of a few days of heat we just had.

Good morning all and a Happy Monday!

i think Fridays are more happy........

Good morning homies
Sorry I haven't been around for awhile but friday I started getting my dental problems took care of and had 13 teeth pulled so right now I am still swollen up but feel much better and hopefully will have the rest of them out in the next few months

OUCH................

i know you said before your vacation, that you had bad dental pain.

now that the procedure has started, you are half way there to getting it all completed and becoming pain free.

i hope once the swelling goes down you will feel lots better.

i figured since we had not heard from you, something was happening within your 4 walls.

hope you feel better each and every day.

Afternoon all ...

Here's an interesting article I came across

 

[marciemi]

Okay, just in case anyone wants to see our triathlon pics (in case you don't believe me ), I won't post them here (since I have to buy them to do that!), but here's the link to the site:

http://www.backprint.com/view_event.asp?PID=bpzCz&EVENTID=56454&PWD

Our bib numbers are 751(Stephen), 752(Me), 739(Royce) so you can just enter that in the box for it. All the swim ones aren't in there, but we don't look particularly good in them anyways so I won't bother linking to those! If you click on either Stephen's or Royce's, there's a nice pic of us sitting together after the race. Click on it to enlarge it and see how red my face is! Told you I was burning!

 

[macraven]

i saw your pics and the group one.


yes, you look red in the face.

but, it is a very nice picture of the three of you!

 

[Worfiedoodles]

Marci -- Congrats on the Tri! You rock!

Lawrence -- I'm so sorry you're in pain, but it sounds like eventually it will all be worth it.

Mac -- We are having our warmest work day of the year today, 92! It feels like a big accomplishment, this has been a cold summer!

Ok, home after a really long day. I'm going to hunker down in the ac and watch Being Human. Anyone watch that? It's BBCAmerica's latest. My dh says it sounds like a Scooby Doo episode -- a ghost, a vampire and a werewolf all live together and try to have normal human lives...

Thank - I may actually splurge and buy that one. Don't think I'll bother with any of the others since Stephen was nice enough to tell me how fat I look in all of them (well, not the biking one, but the rest!).

Hello all! Mom's frying fish tonight! Yay!

StL - wow, that's alot teeth @ once, best wishes for a speedy bounceback to ur old self

After a long day at work and a few hours of Farm Town (Bev hates me now that I've gotten her hooked), I think it's time for bed.

Good night all!

Hi homies. I am such a wimp in the heat. It was still hot by me today. You must be a little cooler, mac. My car said 94. OY!!

Walked my dog a couple of miles, now I'm gonna sit in the air conditioning and try to catch up here.

Congrats on the tri.
Stl, hope the teeth look better.

Hi homies. I am such a wimp in the heat. It was still hot by me today. You must be a little cooler, mac. My car said 94. OY!!

But I bet you have A/C in your car! Of course mine died this summer and since the car has almost 200,000 miles on it (and about a zillion other things wrong with it - pretty much everything except the fact that it actually runs), I just can't justify fixing it for the 5 hot days or so we have. Now if the heat doesn't work, that'll be a whole different thing! Of course it would be better if my driver's side window worked too. As you can imagine, it's hot in my car these days! Oh well, supposed to be 59 degrees tonight so it won't last!

that's why I refuse to play it ... I know I'll get hooked on it and I'll never get off Facebook!!!

Robbie, what kind of fish? I love a good fish fry. The best near me is a bar called Roosters. It's served with fries or (my favorite) beans and rice. The place has 50 hot sauces to kick it up with. Yum.


I am not cooking tonight. Yesterday, I made a big batch of meatballs in spicy plum sauce. Just make a little jasmine rice, and I'm set.

isn't that how teens are....

i laughed my butt off over what you said.

yea, my kids said the same thing to me back then....
and sometimes still.........

to go on record here and in Marcie's defense, i have meet her in person.

she is NOT FAT......

we did hit 82 at in the afternoon then it started to sprinkle and back down to 74.
the lake does keep us cooler than those in the city.
and keeps us even more cooler in the winter......

as of tuesday and the rest of the week, the high here will be maybe 77....and low humidity.

sounds like you got your exercise for the day by walking the doggy.

that's why I refuse to play it ... I know I'll get hooked on it and I'll never get off Facebook!!!

i went to check out that game but forgot my pw again for fb.
damn......

Thanks Mac! I guess I should feel better because the same kid also tells me all the time how fat he is, and he's about 6 inches taller than me and weighs less, so maybe his standards are a bit warped. I pity all his future girlfriends! Guess he's just never seen me before (at least that he can remember) in anything two-piece (and I really bought it planning to only wear it under a wetsuit or a t-shirt, but it was SO hot). My other son told me a couple years ago that if you were over 30 you were no longer allowed to wear anything sleeveless (not tank tops, just a sleeveless shirt I was wearing - only around the house) because it was "gross". Ah, yes, the joys of teens!

I believe it was tilapia. It was really good. I don't know what she used but it had thi slight sweetness to it that was really good. Kinda like Chick-Fil-A's chicken, but I know she didn't use peanut oil.
