RE: <--I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps s...

<---says Lorie had Ronne beat by 2 minutes
<---besides, Lorie's song was better, because Jimmy did a cover of it
<---had a craptastic night's sleep
<---woke up at 2 and no matter how hard <--told myself there was no need to worry, <--got stuck in the thought loop - Mom, Greyor, Work, Mom, Greyor, Work, Mom, Greyor, Work
<---says then the panic of "Oh my gosh, I have to get up in 2 hours" jumps into the loop and you spend a total of 2 hours before you drift off to sleep
<---adds that while sleeping, you dream all your credit cards have been stolen, which reawakes you 2 minutes before the alarm should go off
<---forgot to mention the recurring night sweats during the worry loop
<---but enough about me
<---hopes Amy and her DH enjoy their cheesesteaks and the rest of their trip north
<---needs a refill in the java mug

<---has trouble making the brain understand that when it is meant to be sleeping
<---thinks Shelley's and Amelia's dreams sound scary

<---tells Shelley it's perfectly normal to go home in the middle of a half-marathon to shave one's legs :p ;)
<---okay, not really
<---is sending (((hugs))) to Amelia - knows how horrible those kinds of bad dreams are
<---hopes shmoopy is putting up less struggle with the eye drops :)
<---tells Robin that a frozen computer is definitely a good reason to goof off
<---tells Robin that other good reasons to goof off are (1) because it's Tuesday and (2) because it's morning and (3) because you feel like it and (4) just because

<--thinks it's time for Robin's mom to go to assisted living
<--sends Lorie lots of writing vibes
<--loves seeing the RT pics of all the lovely Catheites, but, for some reason, feels pained when she sees the endlessly smiling faces of the crew
<--just feels bad for anyone who has to spend 2 days being "on", looking perfect, smiling and posing for pics
<--detests those kinds of situations and actually gets upset looking at the pics :-(
<--would obviously be a total failure at being a celebrity ;)
<--is rambling at lot these days on the muscle relaxants

<--needs a refill

RE: <--I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps s...

<---waves goodmorning to all you gals!
<---thinks she is finally over her soreness enough to actually work out tonight
<---is going to sorely miss having Emily, Beth, Robin, Catherine, Denise, Phyllis, Patti, Amy, & Tammy etc. on all sides working out with her though :'(
<---knows that being surrounded by friends was what gave her the strength to push through those classes
<---wishes Lorie lots of luck with writing her first chapter of her dissertation
<---wonders what the subject is?
<---is so sorry about Robin's craptacular sleep last night
<---thinks there definitely must have been a bad moon out for so many OAL'ers to have such horrid dreams (although was LOL at Shell's shaving dream)
<---also had horrible dreams - hers had to do with a car crash involving an RV and lots of bodies strewn everywhere :O Then the dream moved on to her DH getting mixed up in a robbery at a restaurant
<---wonders where in the world these dreams come from???
<---agrees with Nancy that Catherine always looks very nice - loved the Saturday night outfit too :)
<---also agrees about poor Cathe and Crew having to constantly pose for pictures over the weekend
<---appologized every time she made them take a picture with her or sign something
<---was very put out when she saw some people interupting Cathe while she was trying to eat to take pictures and sign things
<---thinks that was very rude!
<---is relieved that Beavs mom is not hurt!
<---hopes her sore throat goes away quickly and that she is able to fit in some relaxation time
<---is contemplating going back to school for her MBA
<---says that her company's HR manager is going to talk to her tomorrow about the company funding it
<---asks everyone to keep their fingers crossed that it works out
<---always wanted to get her MBA straight out of college, but somehow 7 years came and went and she never did it
 
RE: <--I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps s...

<--thinks it would be cool if Liann pursued the MBA, particularly on the company dime
<--also noticed some pushy people with Cathe and felt bad for her
<--wonders if she got a chance to enjoy her coffee on Sunday
 
RE: <--I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps s...

<---thinks Nancy's dream might take the cake for weirdest dream - a criminal gang with lung diseases! :p
<---thinks Lorie's lunch sounds tasty
<---tells Robin that <--- does run slow enough to shave while running ;)
<---might try it during <---'s next race
<---is so glad Beavs' mom is okay after the car crash
<---hopes that sore throat doesn't turn into anything worse
<---hopes Amelia gets LaundryMax and DishMax done quickly so she can get to RelaxMax :)
<---agrees with Liann that workouts just won't be the same without all the fabulous road trippers working out with <---
<---is crossing fingers that Liann will get a paid MBA education :)
<---thinks it's so much harder to go back to school for an advanced degree after you've been out for a while
<---should've gotten <---'s master's degree right after finishing <---'s bachelor's because now <--- has no motivation (or time) to go back to school
<---is too lazy now :p
 
RE: <--I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps s...

<---tells Emily that she is worried about motivation too
<---always liked being in school though, so hopes that it isn't too hard to get back into the groove
<---cannot believe it has been 7 years though!
<---knows if she doesn't do it now, she never will :/
<---wonders if anyone else here has gone back for further schooling while working full time?
