Long-Term Running Goals:

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.

Everything feels good, except my hamstrings, but that's due to my attempts at crossfit.

Deadlifts are from satan.

That's a good pace.

Satan desires all men to be miserable like unto himself.

Hi Mr.Kungfu. That is a great tempo there. ..Can't remember when I did deadlifts last (hate how guys look at your butt when you do them!)..Actually satan tricks us that we don't like deadlifts. It's GOOD pain boys! Feel the BURN! Fire doesn't scare me and neither does satan. Also I refuse to use a capital letter for satan..lol.

Missy - you just commented on the funniest blogger's blog. It's a shame he doesn't blog as much as he used to. And it's cool that you don't capitalize satan, just as long as you don't write X-mas for Christmas.

Burt: Well I came to pay Mr.Kungfu a visit since he called me a cheater! :P Maybe if we come and hang out on his page all the time he will come back to blogging! I do write xmas sometimes...I am a free spirit..I like to do what I like! :)I don't bother with the capital X or the - either..just xmas. When I write Christmas in full it is always with a capital C. :D Burt You need to help me with the video thing...lol.

From missy on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 15:53:51 from 71.32.195.43

And I always write Burt with a capital B! :)

I should spell missy with a a lower case m since that's how you do. Origami with scissors. LOL! You can't make that stuff up.

From missy on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 16:07:45 from 71.32.195.43

Well When I made that dove I thought..."scissors? huh? lol ok..." Yeah well I flipped through the calendar reviewing the year and they ALL look very basic..You would think the Calendar would progress and get more difficult. Whoever designed the Calendar is not a very high achiever. M or m is fine with me..mIsSy MiSsY mISSy MissY..lol.

Thanks for visiting folks.

You make me blush, Burt.

I once sent my youngest an oragami when I was on an extended trip. She loves bugs. I found instructions to fold a dragonfly at the local library. When she opened the envelope, she completely unfolded what I had painstakingly made. I haven't been able to find the same one since, even on the internet.

Most of the ones I find aren't proportioned right. They either have fat wings or a fat body.

So if you ever find a good dragonfly, then let me know. Or if you're at the Offutt AFB library in Nebraska, check out one of their three origami books.

Great run Mike. Sorry to hear about the deadlifts. They can be a bit rough. Any races or challenges your working towards??

From Camille on Thu, Feb 11, 2010 at 16:14:28 from 71.223.71.93

Mike! I'm glad you are healing up and are able to run. :o)

Did she unfold it to see how it was done and then couldn't put it back together? When I was in highschool, one of my friends folded a shrimp and gave it to me (as a way to make fun of my less than average height). I took it apart to see how he did it and was never able to get the stupid thing back together.

Hey Mark,

Ultimately, I'm trying to get my 10k time down for a test.

I signed up for the el paso marathon satellite. I was planning on making it a long slow run, but I think I'm going to pace a friend for the half instead.

Hiya Camille,

Maddy didn't recognize it as a dragonfly. It was folded flat to fit in the envelope. She was looking for something inside it. She was five at the time.

From Camille on Sat, Feb 13, 2010 at 15:51:42 from 71.223.65.77

oh, I bet she was heart broken when she realized the mistake.

Nice run their Mike!!! Oh wait, what was it? Some dinosaur name ... stink ... I can't remember!!! I'm so pathetic!

Nice tempo there!
