Yes we can! but do we have to?

Things you missed out on hearing about while I forgot to blog this week:

Me going to the Wisconsin State Fair. Rather than gaining weight from the tempting dairy products and things on sticks, I think it's safe to say I lost 6 lbs due to sweating profusely.

I did enter the wonderful world of cream puffs and approved. Also, I took the liberty of people watching in West Allis (not West Dallas) and noted the dress code for the benefit of any future visits:
  • girls: tube tops.
  • boys: shirts with sleeves ripped off.
  • kids: kool-aid/snowcone mustaches.
  • everyone: jean shorts.

Trail Trends. Cutting edge outfits to wear when you're biking: Singlets. (singlettes? singlits? Whatever, the thing you would wear if you were a high school wrestler. or any age wrestler I suppose). Apparently they are acceptable for both men and women. The first time I saw one was last week. A hefty girl was sporting one as she sped by me on her Schwinn. I thought about it for awhile. And thought maybe it was a dare. Or maybe it was a one off. But in the past 7 days, I have seen it 3 times. Granted, I've seen that hefty girl twice. So really only twice. But the other one was an elderly man with a santa beard last night. That's when I knew I need to take a look at the Eastbay catalog and order one in every color.

Another trend I noticed is a man I see rollerblading nearly everyday. We act kind of like we know each other now even though I usually smile and look away because little does he know the reason why I'm smiling is not because I recognize him from the day before, but because he always wear white BikeSport biker shorts and speed skates down the path back and forth at a perfectly bent over 90 degree angle and looks absolutely ridiculous.

So there you have it. Singlets and white biker shorts.

Baby are you down down down down down (doooown, doooown). I've listened to this song for roughly 6 days straight with no shame and found myself curious as to who was the musical genius behind the lyrics of this song. Also, I will admit to you also that I tried numerous times to count how many times they say the word DOWN, but always lose count when it comes to the 'down like the economy' part.

Waiting. Yesterday I did a lot of waiting. Let me repeat. A LOT OF WAITING. I wrote a really really really long blog about it but then I felt bad because it was basically a 20 minute long rant about the medical/pharmeceutical field and how much my life sucks and blahblahblah complain complain complain. Just as I was about to post it, someone gave me a free piece of pizza and a diet coke and I realized life's not so bad.

Also, I remembered Hannah Montana the movie is on my Netflix queue, due to arrive in less than one week. and my sister Megan is NOT excited about it and I will NOT write anything on her wall about it.

Meanwhile, who wants to go see Band Slam with me in the theater?

Just kidding.

Unless you want to go. In which case, fine.
