<---take the weather with you

<-- has wasted most of the day today :(
<-- is pondering going out with DH tonight!
<-- asks Nance for her blessing: http://www.restaurantlulu.com/restaurants.html#zibibbo ;-)
<-- has planned the week of workouts
<-- will try to be more "motivating" since that seemed to be the one consistent critique
<-- knows that's <--'s weak spot
<-- thinks that if <-- can do it on her own, so can anyone, which doesn't work well for a lot of people it turns out
<-- sighs
<-- hasn't read ^^
<-- found out that apparently there is a bonus system for bootcamp instructors! :eek: :7
<-- was thrilled to hear that
<-- says the fact <-- ordered $300 worth of fall/winter clothing today had nothing to do with the bonus rumor
<-- will apparently be allowed to say how the bonus divides up btwn <-- and <--'s assistant
<-- doesn't know what to do about that one
<-- is officially rambling
<-- has to get started on the tax studying, so therefore <-- will bbs
 
<-- waves a late day hello to new friends ~~
<-- is having a relaxing and quiet Sunday
<-- is relishing it :p
<-- is sorry Penn State lost, but doesn't think it's Robin's fault ;-)
<-- hopes Shelley's cramps ease up and her sore legs loosen up quickly
<-- has cramps today too x(
<-- thankful naproxen is working so well :)
<-- is glad Elaine had fun at the dry barn party
<-- loves to smell like a campfire
<-- hates to camp :p :7
<-- waves to Amy and Tammy ~~
<-- hopes Judy's congestion clears up quickly
<-- hopes Judy can rest and take care of herself :)
<-- agrees with Robin and Michele about what a real dessert is :9
<-- wishes had more education too
<-- thinks nursing is an educated and noble field
<-- is glad Michele had fun at her DH's reunion
<-- happy dancing that Judy's sister is feeling & doing better, Yay! :D
<-- sends healing vibes to Elaine, but encourages her to take Monday as a sick day is she wants to :+ :eek: :7
<-- is jealous of Nancy's cool (and free!) NYC Italian dinner }( :D
<-- is living vicariously through Nancy in <--'s mind :p :9
<-- has never tried pinot noir
<-- is into Asian cuisine latey, too
<-- recently fell in love with sushi :9
<-- is excited about Amy G's newly discovered BC bonus, and hopes it's a nice chunk of change :D
<-- agrees that BC/gym class participants shouldn't need alot of motivating
<-- finds super-motivating instructors irritating :7
<-- thinks it's funny how different people can be, but is glad for variety
<-- must start next load of laundry
<-- bbl ~~~
 
<---is sneaking in while DH's back is turned to wave hey to all
<---tells Tammy, if you're around, the chickpea stew recipe is posted under the title Chickpea and green bean tagine recipe
<---says its a kind of Moroccan vegetarian thingy with lots of dried fruit
<---is getting dirty looks from DH, who needs to do some work on the computer
<---is watching the Steelers anyway
<---will try to get back later
 
<-- agrees with Connie that the super-motivating ones are like nails on a chalkboard to <--
<-- forgot to say that one of the reviews said "she doesn't push us like Mr.X used to"
<-- had to agree with DH that it isn't right to put someone else's name in someone's review
<-- hears Mr. X's name every day and it has been 6 months since he left x(
<-- thinks he motivated people because he was a fast runner and could do pull ups
<-- is capable of neither of those ^^
<-- is, however, capable of relating to people who have injuries, who have weight to lose, who struggle with exercise some days, who want to get stronger, and who can remember a time they never worked out
<-- thought that ^^ was sufficient but apparently not
<-- is going to take it out on them this week }( }( }(
<-- is only partly joking
<-- made dinner reservations at that place
<-- talked to DH about making standing plans for a Sunday night date for dinner and he agreed
<-- says we use opentable.com and most restaurants give 1,000 points for a Sun early reservation rather than their standard 100 point reservation, so we could make some serious reward cash this way! }( :p
<-- is going to work out now and earn <--'s gluttonous (???) dinner :9
 
<--wishes Amy G would quit beating herself up over a few people who probably don't know what is best for them
<--thinks they're like first grade students who always want the teacher they had in Kindergarten because they don't want change
<--hopes Amy G kicks their butts this week}( }(
<--gotta go cook
<--bbl
 
<--- says OMG! Elaineee was a real cutie patootie!!
<--- LOVES Elaines avatar and congratulates her on figuring out how to post it
<--- thanks Connie for the kind words
<--- is not so keen on Asian food...well...likes Chicken Teriyaki and asks if that counts--lol!
<--- 's DH could eat sushi and sashimi all day long
<--- wildly waves at Robin and says her DH is forever telling her he needs the computer, even though he has his own laptop and we have a wireless connection just for him
<--- says he likes to use the big desk top monitor to view xrays,CT's and MRI's
<--- highly approves of Ame's restaurant choice
<--- agrees with everyone else about Ame's BC'ers and thinks she should give them a total kick a$$ workout tomorrow

<-- had a wonderful, wonderful, *wonderful* dinner at Zibibbo tonight!
<-- ordered a mixed baby greens salad with mustard vinaigrette, roasted cauliflower, and roasted delicata squash with cinnamon (which tasted like a cookie but it was a vegetable so <-- got to enjoy that dish all kinds of ways!!!)and had a cuban "cigar" which was mashed potatoes wrapped in phyllo dough and fried }( :9
<-- also had a lovely glass of zinfandel
<-- had all kinds of fun
<-- then went to Target and looked at the Christmas lights with DH
<-- says it was the display of the boxes, we've been looking for a particular rope light since we were married and they never have it
<-- didn't find the rope light but oh well
<-- was home at 8:10!!! :7
<-- immediately called Mom and told her our availability for both Thanksgiving and Christmas
<-- is not sure, but she sounded like none of it bothered her!!! :eek: :D
<-- was glad <-- just took care of it as soon as DH and <-- pooled our availability and decided on our options
<-- hasn't done a lick of schoolwork this weekend and it has been a lovely weekend
<-- hopes the week goes okay (including the tax exam <-- hasn't started studying for yet!)
<-- isn't all that concerned over the tax exam tomorrow because it is 10% of our grade, he said we have the questions already (we do problems for each class and he said he'd just change the details), it's 15 multiple choice questions in 60 minutes, <-- has 2 solid hours tomorrow before the exam to review, and <-- has been fortunate enough to feel like <-- has understood the class up to this point
