This kind of sucks

I'm losing followers. :(

I can't run.

I can't focus.

I can't seem to write anything of value.

I hope this changes soon.

Guess when Goober will be here!

Be sure to make a guess in Goober's birthday pool!  Everyone is saying November...and even though her due date is November 9th, man, I want her to be here sooner. Gah!  Tomorrow marks 37 weeks and I'm so uncomfortable.  But, it'll be worth it.  Right?  Right.

Just going up and down my stairs is tough.  I should count it as a workout. ;)

I'm behind on blogging and reading blogs because I have Goober on the brain.  So much to think about and so little time left.

Sunsets and SIGG Bottles

This evening I went for a two mile walk with Trav around the neighborhood. The sunset was gorgeous and I just needed to get outside after an annoying day.  Physical exercise is definitely not getting any easier, so a walk was just what I needed.

Of course I had to take some photos along the way.

Hey, I forgot to mention that Cafepress contacted me a few weeks ago and offered a new SIGG water bottle. I got it really quickly and even though I messed up my design, I love it!  My other I <3 Running SIGG that I got from a friend months ago started leaking from the cap because I use it so much...so I'm glad I have a new one. Not only SIGG bottles, but a wide spectrum of custom hoodies, 2011 yearly calendars and personalized gifts can be found at CafePress for any interest, brand or topic!  Check 'em out!

I'm still working on my YGG 10K recap. So late!

Neil's *10-10* Virtual Race

Today I completed a virtual race in honor of Barefoot Neil's birthday!  

Distance: 1 mile

Time: 13:00

And guess what?  I actually jogged it on the treadmill!  Big 36 week belly and all. ;)

Hope everyone running Portland, Chicago and all other races are having a great day!  And happy 10/10/10 people!

A Tourist in My Own City

Hello Seattle!

Yesterday I had the privilege to show TMB and Katye the lovely sites of Seattle, along with Jill.  There was a lot of walking, laughing, picture taking, more laughing, and cupcakes. :)  Crazy conversations about running, random people we saw along the "tour," balls (you decide), apps, food, running shoes, race stories and cupcakes.  Everything ended with cupcakes.  Delicious ones, too.

I would love to show you a lot of pictures, but I don't want to spoil TMB's and Katye's recaps entirely.  So I have one that I will show...Space Needle tourist pic!  Woo hoo!

Katye, TMB, Me/Miss Goober

I'll give the rundown of the events later.  I'm tired and the You Go Girl 10K is tomorrow AM!  Yay!

You have 2 hours left to enter the raffle/giveaway for plane tickets! 

Cars, Tickets & The Goob

I never really appreciated having two cars until now.  Woah.  I've been having my coworker pick me up on the way to work, which is nice for me, but a little out of the way for him.  Plus, not having two cars hasn't allowed me to go to the gym at all this week. :(  I'm in need of a swim!  Argh!  The good news is Travis found a car and tested it out this afternoon...so we may be back to two cars soon enough.

As you can see, the car situation has dwindled my exercise to a minimum this week.  But hopefully I'll be getting a lot this weekend with You Go Girl just around the corner.

Please don't forget to enter the raffle/giveaway of the AirTran plane tickets.  Only 3 days left to enter!  

Side note:  The reason I can't just give these tickets away is because they were donated to A Small Victory for an auction we held last year.  Since A Small Victory is not taking donations at the moment, the next best organization is the MISS Foundation.  Ultimately, these tickets are not mine to just give away.  Thanks for understanding!

Also, check out Goober's Birthday Pool with the link to the right.  Make a guess on when she'll be here!

The Murphy & Goober stare down...
