Today I'm grateful for my treadmill, my mp3 player and upbeat music.

Brain: You must drink more water. Stomach: I don't WANT more water. Brain: SHUT IT!

"Commitment is doing the thing that you said you were going to do when that inspired feeling has left you." -Darren Hardy

My stomach has decided that it's going to be one of those days.

Boy, my emotions are all over the place today.

Michael Jackson

Memories regarding Michael Jackson:

• Levi (my little bro) used to sing "Man in the Liver".
• Who didn't try to moonwalk as a kid?

Nearly there, nearly there...actually two more hours. Oh drat!

Thursday...on the downhill side of the week, but not quite Friday.

Suicidal at 575 pounds, she now weighs 165

Above: Three TODAY show interns who combined weigh as much as Tammey Burns once did were able to fit into a pair of the pants she once wore. Next to them is stacked 410 pounds of lard — the amount of weight Burns lost.

“Quit the fad diets,” Burns replied. “Make it a healthy lifestyle change. Work on your emotional issues, and combine exercise with a healthy lifestyle change.

“And focus on your goals — not the struggle,” she concluded.

Men who get better looking with age: Harrison Ford, George Clooney Sean Connery...

Wow! There is not a single cloud in the sky right now.

It takes a lot of patience to be a bulldozer operator.

It's a good Monday so far. *knock on wood*

Emotions

I have found as I get older, that as awesome as it is to do good myself, it's much more gratifying to see someone I love, teach, have watched work very hard do good. Just as it was so wonderful to see my little (he'll always be little to me) brother win Supreme Champion Ewe at the Oklahoma State Fair years ago, it was equally as exciting to see the girls bring home that 2nd place trophy. They have learned so much and progressed so far this season. And the girls that joined the team late have stepped up beautifully.

Coaching can be a challenge, but it is the players themselves that make it worth all of the pressures. To see them grow, improve, and take pride in their efforts is a feeling I'll carry with me for a long, long time.

The awesome Hydro-Eakly 12 & under softball team won 2nd in their tourney today. I'm so proud of them!

Woot: 12 Bugs We've Found in iPhone OS 3.0

http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=8475

1. Multimedia messaging does not support sculpture, macrame, or interpretive dance.
2. Voice memo recordings totally don't sound like me. I don't sound like that, do I? Seriously?
3. Turned on adult content filter but everybody in my videos still has their clothes on.
4. Adding a task to calendar did not result in task getting done.
5. Clicked this blue "compass" icon but kept getting some stupid web browser.
6. Still no apps to cure the nagging feeling that I should've bought a Palm Pre.
7. The touchscreen is now on the back of the phone instead of the front.
8. Gone to the bathroom four times already today, and Remote Wipe hasn't worked once.
9. Spotlight search crashed with memory overload error trying to index my Harry Potter cosplay photo collection.
10. Tried out tethering, but I think I broke my finger smacking that phone around the pole.
11. Apple still hasn't fixed the no-hardware-keyboard bug.
12. "Cut" function does not apply to monthly AT&T bill.

Easily distracted today...well, even more than usual.

Excel...the application that will not die.

Really good workout this morning. It seems to get my day off to a good start.

My work day is almost over, the Aleve has kinda kicked in for my sore muscles; the day is looking up.

I am so enjoying the quiet in my office right now.

Note to self: Quit just talking about it & get rings resized before you lose one.

You may have won this round treadmill, but I will defeat you in the end.

How the heck does the day go by so fast?

In my next life I'm going to come back much, much smarter...and better lookin'.

Oh look...it's Monday again.

There's a lot of little kids at the Redhawks game. I'm melting from their cuteness.

"If you don't grab the reins and take responsibility for your actions, all the advice in the world won't help you succeed." - Regina Gunn (from Shape magazine)

My eyelids are heavy. May have to drink coffee to make it through the afternoon.

Have I mentioned that I hate Mondays?!
