Saturday list
Posted on | March 24, 2007 |
* Croissants, fresh strawberries, vanilla yogurt, lattes.
* A trip to the store for rain boots.
* Grocery shopping (”Bean drive OWN CAR,” he says, earnestly. And so we push around those awful, cumbersome, rediculous plastic car/carts. He loves every minute.)
* Teething, and a struggle to go to sleep at nap time. Finally we went for a walk with Bean in the running stroller (think MUD on the roads) and he was asleep in less than a minute.
* A teeny-tiny circus, just down the road. (Such a long post coming on that tomorrow!)
* Lasange, garlic bread, wine and chocolate cake with friends while the kids chased the cats, and shared sippy cups.
* Making the perfect running mix. (Leave a comment if you want the titles! I’m into goofy, fast paced, 80s inspired stuff when I run. Anything to keep my feet moving!)
* And delight, of all delights: my iPod and book were found and returned! Thanks for all the positive comments on that one. I seriously think you helped balance the universe in my favor. Now, just keep your good thoughts dancing my way re: grad school. They say I won’t necessarily be notivied until mid April.

Yes definitely good thought for grad school. I’m glad your book and ipod were return safely. I would love it if you would share titles for running mix.
Best,

I had garlic bread on Friday for the first time in a dog’s age…MAN, it was good.
I would love to have that list of songs…will they work for brisk walking?

As I don’t expect to start running any time soon, let me just chime in and say that I hope to goodness “Come On Eileen” is on your running mix. That is the BEST get-up-and-move-it 80s song in the WORLD. I used to have to dance/work out to it every single morning when I did theater one summer and it holds a very special place in my heart. Maybe I would start running if I listened to that song enough?
It’s so wonderful your book and iPod came back! I love a happy ending.

Hurray for the return of the iPod and book. Good karma all round!

Can’t wait to see the list of songs-glad you got your iPod back-such an essential thing.

I’d love to see the list of songs in the running mix. I know very well that I have to get my feet moving but can’t quite find the right motivation. As a child of the 80s, I’m hoping this may help!
Congrats on the return of your iPod. Life without those svelte little boxes of sound and light can be very hard indeed.

I just decided to start running-on the tail of some awful news.
I would cherish the list of songs as music helps keep my feet going.

I would love the titles of that running mix. We still have plenty of snow on the ground here, but I”m back on my bike and soon the shoes will be coming out.

I tagged you today in a favorite blog meme. I love posts like this one.

I, too would love to know your running mix. Been trying to ease back into it after ankle surgery.

Please share the titles! I have an old-school hip hop mix — lots of Rob Base, The Humpty Dance, Salt-n-Pepa, etc. It’s great to move to!!! In fact, when SIL got married a few years ago and had the WORST DJ in the history of weddings, she pulled the CD from her car in the parking lot and told him to play THAT and ONLY that! We all started dancing then!!!!

March 26th, 2007 @ 12:25 pm

I would love the 80s running mix. I had just started trying to come up with my own today! I need good tunes to get me through a 5K (I’m slow!)
