oh internet…you so crazy!

August 6th, 2008 |

Ummm. You know? If you start a blog, join a community… be prepared for whats out there. Good or bad. But.. the good thing about having your own blog, is your can type whatever the hell you want…

I love my blog. I have “met” some pretty awesome people through my blog, and not only met them live and in person, but have developed some pretty great relationships otherwise. But you know.. it happens, there are just some people out there, that act like total DOOSHBAGS and you think..how do they make it in the real world. How does one function in society on a daily basis. I mean, I wouldn’t know how to function outside my home, since I am a stay at home mom, and all I do all day is walk on my treadmill, talk on my cell phone and read cosmo. I bet you didn’t know that about me, did you? Yup, I have the luxury of doing that all day long. So, when I join an onlne fitness community, to help motivate oneself for losing weight - I never expected sore losers. But, I guess there’s one in every bunch, who just has to whine that they can’t keep up with the rest of the pack.

So, I’ll just keep on, keepin’ on. I’ll post on my blog, with pics of my kids. I’ll do the research before posting a question so I don’t get beaten down for being a lazy googler. I’ll be honest with my points on my exercise, because in the end - as much of a bitch as I play on tv, I do play by the rules. I’ll do my best to talk to my BFF and Plurk, while I walk on my treadmill for hours a day, because having two kids, a house and husband and two dogs.. I have ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD to do nothing else, except accrue introplay points.

Sincerely,

Bitchycakes or pusscakes… I don’t know which one I am..but I’m one those. I hope it’s bitchy cakes.. it has a nice ring.

Think I can change my name on my license?

just another reason …

July 10th, 2008 |

do you see what a lucky lucky girl I am. First off, my Coach bag has been found and now in my possession..phew! Do you not LOVE that little Starbucks sign, that was from my friend Meredith - and the roses? Those are from one of nearest & dearest girls in the whole wide world .. they are orange.. and they are AMAZING. The wicked cute tote is from Danielle to promote my inner badass - and well, last night at knit night, the festivies continued. Bethe & Erin got me a 12pack of Stella’s, that birthday hat and yes - there are pictures of me with it on - to be shown at a later date - the cutest little ball O yarn with needles to hang from my mirror in the beast. (OH! and a birthday pilsner that I forgot to photo!) Thanks to everyone.. How lucky am I? DAMN LUCKY!

Last night, we all gathered at our local Barnes & Noble and made a scene - it was one of those nights where the laughter was nonstop and my stomach hurt and if I wore mascara last night, it would have been running. Phew. Good times… fo shiz.

So, now I am decrompessing after a great night, getting ready to take M for day 4 of tennis - and tackle some of the damn laundry.

Oh… and because my knitting homegirls are the biggest enablers in every way possible.. here’s a time sucker for you … www.plurk.com .. .go there and prepare to be sucked in. Im not joking. I am MELLOWD there - so if you go.. look me up.

This lady needs more coffee and time to start the day!

BAMFK- REPRESENT!

BAMFK, originally uploaded by rkymtnmel.

We got into the local paper ! Except I edited the pic… we had to put down our beerz and pick up our needles. That’s the only time I held those needles that day. We’re missing one knitter that is supposed to be way to your left there.. but she was there in spirit. Actually, there are bunch of other BAMFK, but us 4 (5 for a while) we’re representing’ that day

HOT and STEAMY!

June 30th, 2008 |

did my title get your attention? I hope you know that this is NOT one of THOSE blogs and if I disappointed you, I’m sorry. Maybe we’ll cross paths in another way. My hot & steamy has to do with with the weather. I’m all about HOT HOT HOT, but not HUMID HUMID HUMID. ACK!

Yesterday, me and my knitting posse (some of ‘em) all got together for some brunch and then we headed down to see the Worcester Tornadoes (baseball) for the first annual Stitch N Pitch. Now, if you have been SO fortunate to attend a MLB Stitch N Pitch, I’m telling you - it cannot compare to what we had going on yesterday. Which was nothing. It’s was 90+ degrees with 400% humidity and we say with 8 innings of it.. well, 3 out of 5 of us did. Because WE were drinkiing beerz. Ohhhhh. what did I knit at said stitch n pitch? NOTHING! I can’t knit and hold my *inappropriate beverage at the same time, so I opted for the beer. But I’m sure you knew that right?

When it was all said and done and we left there looking so HAWT and SEXSAY … we blasted the air conditioner full blast and cooled down. I love baseball (married into it) and I love being outside, but I just loved hanging with the ladies and laughing at everything and everyone.

It was a great way to start off my week.

*one of the other SNP’s mentioned (to herself, but not really) that our beers were an inappropriate beverage because it was a family even we assumed and her kids were there. WHATEVER. It’s baseball, and I’m well over 21!!! and btw, she shouldn’t have brought all 90 of her annoying kids anyway .. get a handle on those kids lady!!!!

US!, originally uploaded by rkymtnmel.

Well, I did it. I feel pretty accomplished I must say. Really now. Me? Doing a 5k! Crazier things have happened I guess. I do have to say that Mr. Knitpho was quite the inspiration to me and I figured if he could do 26.2, I could do a measly 3.1. It was a great experience and much more fun than I ever thought possible. My time was 35:17.. I was hoping for a bit better, but there were unexpected hills.. but for my first one. I’ll take it!
Miles did the fun run with a bunch of other kids, that was a lot of fun for him, however there were kids younger than him cruising that 5k and one kid ran in it, in like 22minutes.. and then he ran the fun run after! But, this one was the Melody Miles Road Race, and now not only did our #’s have our names on it, so did the ribbons and the T-shirts. I love stuff with my name on it.. it’s been hard to come by my entire life, now I have all this and it even means more to me than a dumb ole keychain!

So, today.. we relax. We eat. We drink. We soak up the sunshine and enjoy good times with good friends.

I hope your doing a lot of the same!
