Yawn. I really should just go to bed. But I need to brag about completing the first workout of Week 3 on Couch to 5K. Two segments of running for 3 min straight. Woo hoo! It doesn't sound like much but for me it was a big deal since the last 5K I did was in December 2004. Now I'm just 10% of the way there - hah!
I've been watching American Idol (for the sixth season in a row. crazy). It's been fairly underwhelming. The boys pretty much suck, and the girls are much better but all of the good ones sing R&B which is my least favorite type of music. And everyone is into the big, belting, yelling style of singing. Not a lot of subtlety there.
And speaking of subtlety, I watched the last half-hour of the show where they're looking for a new Pussycat Doll. Talk about inane. It was so bad it was hilarious. But really, no one wants to watch people puking on TV. Not even if it's supposedly hot girls puking. That doesn't make it any better.
I spent a good deal of time this evening trying to figure out how to get my SmugMug pictures to display in a slideshow on this blog. Apparently it can't be done without writing some serious code. And I'm just not up for that challenge right now. So I'll wait around and hope someone comes up with a SmugMug widget thing for Blogger.
Well, I'm one day closer to my iPod Shuffle. I'm also jealous of Kristin's new red ipod Nano. I can't wait to see it and put my grubby little hands on it when we meet in Puerto Rico at the end of the month!
- Congrats on Week 3! We're in the same boat - the first (and last) 5K that i ran was in September 2005, so it's kind of weird "starting over".
ReplyDelete- American Idol IS really underwhelming. There isn't a lot of variety in the girls, I find, and yes, I agree on the R&B. Although, some of those girls make Antonella and Hayley look like AWFUL singers.
- Do you have a shuffle, or are you looking to buy one? I looooove my shuffle, especially for running.
