So un-talented

I can't even get my hyperlinks to work today.
I should call it a day.

the LET (low-expectation theory)

Sometimes I think myself crafty, or creative.

That is, until I see things like this.
Or this.
Or this.

Or this.

Or this.

Or visit here and realize that I'm not.

Me Want Cookies!

Hey, thanks for the cookies Nik!
They were delicious.

I wanted to let you know Chod did share.
Now he can have another cookie in his life.

Hope you've had a great day!

Happy, Happy Birthday Grandma Dear!

This coming Tuesday will be my grandma's birthday!

I just wanted to give a little shout out to her for her special day.
I hope it's great and you get to enjoy the sunshine!
We love you Grandma!
Love,
Brian & Whit

Jog for Jiggy, 2nd Annual

Tomorrow, April 18, 2009, I and the rest of the A-Team Gang will compete in the 2nd Annual Jog for Jiggy.

In honor of an awesome, spunky girl we will run our hearts out in the Salt Lake City 5K. We will all finish and it will be great!

Last year, only one person threw-up, a couple of us were passed by older men and we enjoyed all the bananas, chocolate milk and taquitos we wanted at 7:53 in the a.m., followed by a scumpcious breakfast at the 2nd oldest restaurant in Utah, Ruth's Diner.

Here's hoping for another great run! Go big or go home.

Fake-out

In the midst of my training for the Wasatch Back my Nike+ decided it would rather die than keep on, keepin' on.

I had just joined a family group on the Nike+ website.

No recorded runs for me.

Last night I finally decided to calibrate my Nike+ -- in hopes of making my runs more accurate -- but to no avail. "Connecting to receiver" was all that would come up as I started my run. Nothing would work. I toook the sensor out of my shoe, pushed the button -- nothing.

I was disgusted with the device.

Brian's battery in his sensor died a few weeks ago and I was not about to buy another Nike+.

"I'll just do without," I thought.

I"m not totally attached to the system. I just wanted to record my fastest 5K.

Anyway, back at home, Bri took a look.

"Yeah, that's exactly what happened to mine."

Gonner. Not exactly the best news.

But wait -- what did I notice this morning?! My receiver sitting on top of our microwave!

That must be Bri's.

Wait a minute -- I took that out to charge my iPod the other night -- and never plugged it back in!

Hallelujah!

Anyway, now that that is solved -- I'm planning on running a marathon in October.

Anyone have good training tips?

Conclusion

I've come to a conclusion, as I was re-reading my blogs of about a year ago -- when I wrote about my memories from college and Utah State -- that I did a pretty dang good job!
I laughed again as I remember those things.
I don't mean to brag, but wow.
I think my blogging/writing ability has slowing deteriorated.
I need to work on that.

Sorry About Our Bad Luck!

The Hamburger Taste Test was today.
