uh...they look like somebody was drinking wine at work!

Sorry about the ticket. Can't you plead "hurricane distress" or something?

Stay safe and keep us posted. L.

I'm feeling a bit better this afternoon. Today was my telecommuting day, but I couldn't motivate myself to work - so I took sick leave. I've been reading my triathlon book and laid down for a bit. The kids just attacked me while I was laying on the bed - that was fun! We had a giant tickle fest while Mr. Fish took the dogs to the vet for their annual shots. We had way more fun than the dogs, or Mr. Fish for that matter. I also found more bruises/soreness in places I was unaware were hurt. Kid feet have a way of finding them, you know.

I think I'm snapping out of it! Now if only the wind would settle down, I could try out those pedals!

They're a little wallpaper-y. - Oh my gosh I didn't even notice the first time that they don't match!! Crazy. I think they are pretty cool - I thought at first one was darker - but it is totally different pattern.

**Nanci** · 06-13-2006, 01:09 PM

Well, I ordered another pair in a different color/pattern. They just bother me. But they are also at a huge discount. But it didn't say anything like "shoes really don't match-" it just said closeouts.

Good thing I signed up for OT the next two Sundays...

Oh, and what REALLY makes me mad about getting a ticket is, why didn't he see the semi ahead of me who ran not one but two red lights???

**DrBee** · 06-13-2006, 01:13 PM

Nanci - those sandals would drive me nuts! Are you going to send them back?

What's the latest on the weather???

I have a great recipe for Guinness beef stew that you should try sometime. It is sooooooooooo good - and easy! Crock pot! There's a little trick at the end that makes is smooooth and not too liquidy. Oh my is it good.

**DrBee** · 06-13-2006, 01:14 PM

They never seem to see the people around you that are going faster. Why is that???

**Nanci** · 06-13-2006, 01:15 PM

And, (can you tell I'm really angry???) he asks, "Were you on your phone?" No, it's right there, on the charger. But so what if I was. It's not against the law in my city/county/whatever. Was he going to drum up some additional bogus charges if I confessed??? Did he feel jipped because I _was_ wearing my seatbelt?

**Nanci** · 06-13-2006, 01:18 PM

I would like either the right shoe or the left, but they DON'T MATCH!!! (But were $60 off...)

Weather is all calmed down to light showers and gusty wind.

**DrBee** · 06-13-2006, 01:20 PM

I bet you wanted to throw it at him!

The last time I got pulled over, the cop missed the person in front of me that was going MUCH faster than I was. Then he had the nerve to complement me on how well my kids were buckled up in their carseats! Now, you can go to the Walmart parking lot at any time of day and see easily 6 cars with kids in them and no carseats in sight. Kids climbing all over the car! Why can't they go after those people??? Did you tell him you were listening to hurricane news and were distracted?

**DrBee** · 06-13-2006, 01:23 PM

Good price, but the not matching thing would make me crazy. I guess just consider them whacky shoes and have fun with it.

**Nanci** · 06-13-2006, 01:34 PM

Then, (thank God he didn't say "have a nice day" or I would have probably lost it) I SPUN OUT in the wet grass as I was angrily leaving.

I can't stand the not matching. I am getting into a super-whiney mood. Why can't ANYTHING just be nice??? (Well, the Shimano sandals were- I love them, and Maizey's cabinet. And my PI Gel Vent Pro gloves, and the Showers Pass jacket.) (But the last 25 pairs of shorts and knickers weren't.)

Did I mention that I hate my first ever event jersey, from Three State Three Mountain? It doesn't fit. I went through all sizes of everything, male and female, and it just doesn't fit. (Possibly if I opted for breast enhancement surgery!! Like to 40DDD) But I had to take it, because I pre-ordered it. Never again. And the stupid design looks like three penises, not three mountains or whatever really abstract thing they were trying to do. And my T-shirt is too large, and they didn't have any mediums.

**Nanci** · 06-13-2006, 01:35 PM

I also hate my avatar. I need to change it. There, a nice grumpy picture with a biting pigeon on my head. That's perfect.

Oh Nanci, I just adore you. Even in a cranky mood, you can make me smile and laugh!

I'll see if I have falsies in 40DDD that you can borrow.

I have the same "not enough bosom" problem w/my size small Shebeest jerseys. Size SMALL for chrissake. The final indignity.

**DrBee** · 06-13-2006, 01:39 PM

I thought I was in a mood. I heard positives in there somewhere! You have been through a lot of shorts lately, haven't you???

3 penises? That's positively awful. Post a pic

**DrBee** · 06-13-2006, 01:41 PM

Have you started on the rhubarb wine yet?
