I'm Thankful...

...I'm thankful that crazy people didn't break into my house in the middle of the night and saw off my legs. I'm thankful I didn't mimic the Oregon Trail and die of dysentery. I'm thankful I wasn't whisked off to an alternate universe where there is so much gravity that everyone moves around like inch worms. If that happened, I wouldn't have gone for a run yesterday morning.



I actually had zero plans for running. It was fucking Thanksgiving. I needed to eat, not run. But, the dog needed a walk and my legs were tight from the previous day's track sprints. I wanted to run.



It was foggy and rainy. And the crotch on my pants were weird. They're always weird. The pants in general are weird. The front is some rain proof fabric, and the back is fleece. They work very well, keeping my legs dry and my butt warm. But, the crotch looks funny. I don't like the way it looks. It's a good thing it doesn't rain often in L.A.



Yes, I'm wearing the exact same workout outfit as the day before. So? I tried to pack light. And no one wanted to run with me, so I'm the only one who had to smell myself.



I have no idea.



Still no idea.



I still have nothing. I may have a problem taking pictures of myself, but you folks are the ones who keep coming here to look at them. So, yeah. Enjoy my stupid face.



==================

This was my Thanksgiving dinner, aka the food that sat in my stomach causing me pain and making me want to throw up. The upside was, people across the country unknowingly felt what I feel after every meal.



At least I enjoyed eating. I love turkey.

Imagine buffalo wings made from turkey instead of chicken. Hot damn.

==================

Today I'm visiting my dad at a spa, then taking a wine train dinner tour thing? I don't drink wine, so I'll be playing sober driver, and passing my wine off to my husband, so I can get him drunk and make fun of him.

  1. If this post was an elaborate ploy to get me to look at your crotch....mission accomplished. Looked normal to me!

  3. Love that foggy picture.

    I think that crotches, like certain words (pretty, for example), look weirder the longer you look at them.

  4. I'm always the sober driver on wine tours, too!

    I'm so proud to call you my friend because you have the perfect butt!

    I agree with Kate - the foggy picture is so pretty!

    This is the first time you've mentioned your dad. It kinda freaked me out. It is as rare as me talking about my dad in my blog!

  5. The design of those running pants is genius. I am impressed. Of course I guess this is 2011 and we can have higher expectations of our running pants and other items...but I'm still back in like 2009 because I buy everything secondhand. So.

  6. Pants are hard to run in and look good. I envy people with thin long legs that make running tights look amazing. My husband left the other day so I also repeated my workout wear. I was at home, and I don't do my own laundry (benefit of living in a third world country), so I really have no excuse except laziness and keeping the integrity of the elasticity in my clothing.

    What's with you not liking wine? Please tell me you drink sometimes.

  7. You wear that same outfit if you want!! :)

    I have a pair of Nike pants that bunch up funny at the crotch and do this saggy thing! Doesn't Nike know that we don't need that extra cloth bunch there??
