So I went to the dentist yesterday. I think it had been about 2 years since my last visit. Isn't insurance great. It didn't cost a thing to get my teeth blasted with baking soda. I also got the local gossip from the hygenist. That day in town a woman got fined a 350 dollar ticket for having both her hands off the wheel? Any clues to what she was doing? Oh geez, no. She was just putting on her make-up, which led to another story from my dear hygenist about one of her friend's daughters who totaled her car on her way to dental hygenist school, because she was brushing her teeth and lost control. Hysterical irony if you ask me. Welp, just another reminder to keep our hands on the wheel. Unless it's for a better reason than the above mentioned stories.
I skipped rugby practice yesterday (because I've started feeling obligated, and so not going was just a way to prove that rugby isn't controlling my life; plus, I was experiencing PMS and I didn't want to really hurt anybody). Ran 3.7 miles, for the second day in a row. Did a little yoga. Looked for a road bike to buy, but to no avail. Those things are expensive, especially brand new. I'll be going the used route for sure. Watched Crash, Broken Flowers, Songcatcher. So it was an anti-social day.
Today was more social. Sunny skies. 75 degrees. Babysat two rascals: twins. Went hiking with some friends, or should I say sliding down a mountain most of the way. A total muddy mess. We even had to climb down this rock face using a rope tied to a tree to reach the waterfall.

Ellen-
I have a very nice road bike in my garage. I believe you left it here. Should I UPS it to you?
Nice waterfalls and rocks. Carolina looks a lot like Arkansas.
And oh my,when I look at the rugby pictures I wonder is "scrum" just another word for get your head out of your ass. You should consider taking up softball again.
We saw Failure to Launch tonight. Could you please give your brothers some pointers on how to leave the nest? Pretty please!!
haha...yes, please ups it. it would save me a lot of money if it runs...or rides, rather.
yes, the head and ass gets all confused in rugby.
my brothers never listen to me. you could always send them here, as they've always been a little on the wild side.
