Run WifeGeeding Run

I’m proud of my wife for many reasons, but most recently I’m proud of how she trained and completed her first half marathon.

What did I do the whole time when she was running?

I walked over to an Omni hotel and ate breakfast.

But I made it back in time to greet her at the finish line.

Here’s an interesting observation . . .

I noticed there were two pregnant racers.  I’m pretty ignorant when it comes to everything pregnancy related, so I had no idea how far along in their pregnancy, but off hand I would think all that running for 13.1 miles would be bad for the unborn child.  However they both had some sort of support strap that kinda looked like this:

There was one of them in retrospect I wish I would have taken a photo of since her belly wasn’t covered (other than the support strap) and her belly button had a ring and tattoo around it.

Mixed Feelings

I’m a Dallas Cowboys fan.

Chris Cooley is a tight end for the Washington Redskins who managers his own blog.

He recently linked to my website.  It was just a link to an image on my website, but knowing an actual Redskin did this humorously bothers me for some reason.

At least it wasn’t anyone from the Eagles. 😉

Random Lost Thoughts

  • I keep having to remind myself that Clair and Jack have the same father.  So I guess that means that last night Jack was helping to raise (or is it rear?) his step-cousin?
  • Jack was reading “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” to Aaron – hello symbolism!
  • Looking at this screen grap, Jack doesn’t have a scare from his appendectomy.  Did the Lost staff make a mistake or did the island healing powers come into play.?  Also, anytime I see the Millenium Falcon I crack up.  What a nice homage to George Lucus.

    For a much larger pic of Jack’s stomach and other screen shots, click here.  That site is a Friday morning must visit for me. 
  • I’m sure all the ladies watching last night were happy to see Jack walk around in nothing more than a towl.  But to balance things out, I know every male was happy to see Kate in nothing more than a man’s dress shirt – which is about the sexiest thing a woman can wear.
  • Jack + Kate = Jate
  • Jin calling out Charlotte being able to understand Korean was great.
  • Rose called Charlotte “Red” – that cracked me up.
  • I must be a little slow because I couldn’t tell that Daniel had a thing for Charlotte.
  • I don’t think it made much sense to send both Charlotte and Miles with Jin and Sun to go fetch the medical supplies.
  • Miles being able to find the bodies of Danielle and Karl was not that impressive.  As shallow as those graves were, you would think you could smell them a mile away.
  • I thought Smokey killed all those soldier people?  Maybe Smokey killed some and these are the survivors.
  • Simply removing a battery from a smoke detector doesn’t shut the darn thing off.
  • Even though it was dramatic, the thought of Sawyer caring for a baby is kinda funny.  Oh, and that whole restraining order thing cracked me up as well.
  • Come on, Kate, don’t hide things from your fiance.   You owe it to him to be open and honest.
  • I bet Kate’s favor to Sawyer has something to do with his daughter Clementine.
  • Jack mentioned that Sawyer decided to stay on the island, which leads me to believe that those that stayed are still alive.  For a while, I thought those that were not part of the Oceanic 6 all died.  But I could still be wrong.
  • Awkward is the best way to describe that “kissing” conversation between Juliet and Kate while Jack pretended to be asleep.

10 x 10

10×10â„¢ (‘ten by ten’) is an interactive exploration of the words and pictures that define the time. The result is an often moving, sometimes shocking, occasionally frivolous, but always fitting snapshot of our world. Every hour, 10×10 collects the 100 words and pictures that matter most on a global scale, and presents them as a single image, taken to encapsulate that moment in time. Over the course of days, months, and years, 10×10 leaves a trail of these hourly statements which, stitched together side by side, form a continuous patchwork tapestry of human life.

10×10 is ever-changing, ever-growing, quietly observing the ways in which we live. It records our wars and crises, our triumphs and tragedies, our mistakes and milestones. When we make history, or at least the headlines, 10×10 takes note and remembers.
