I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter.  The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance.  Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters.

I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities.

Abs and KBs.  Just had a influx of soldiers and Abs class had more people than I've every seen.  I think it inspired Kim to go gangbusters.  I think she scared all the new folks.  I was definitely frightened.

Tried running for a bit, but it was a no-go.  Maybe I should learn to run on my hands.

Try the hand running in the heels or the clogs. You may need some crocks!

Why a no-go? Ankle issues?

Wow, you certainly frighten easily, Mike... your new nickname shall be... Mr. Frightened... sorry, I couldn't come up with anything better...

Marion,

I have crocs in real life, but the girls are mortified by them :) Probably more so than if I wore heels or clogs.

Lucia,

I have angry foot issues now. The good news is that with the break from running my ankle feels a whole lot better.

I can live with the new nickname. I've been called worse. How about Senor Pollo or El Gato-Escaredy-o?

El Gato-Escaredy-o! Love it!

From Lucia on Tue, Dec 09, 2008 at 15:06:13

You crack me up!!! You mean "El Gato Asustado" - but I like Señor Pollo better. Too funny!

From montelepsy on Tue, Dec 09, 2008 at 15:25:29

How about Meester Sheecken?

From Lucia on Tue, Dec 09, 2008 at 15:33:45

Hahahaha! Please don't make me laugh so much, I'm trying to prepare for a presentation here! Hahahaha!

So I just tried to do one of those pistol things... and heard a very loud crack in my knee. I tried it with the other leg. Louder crack... thanks Mike...

Oh no, now you'll have to pay for a squat assessment...

From Lucia on Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 08:44:14

hahaha... The therapist did tell me I had to stand on one leg on a step and go up and down with my knee bent to strengthen my calf muscles... so maybe after doing that for a few months I'll be able to do the pistol. Until then I'll be Ms. Crack!

Not a good monkier for the DC area...

From montelepsy on Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 08:53:49
