Bad Movie Weekend
Friday night I went with a past co-worker to see Hot Tub Time Machine. Yes, I want my money back. Yes, that was two hours of my life I won't ever get back. Yes, I washed my eyes out after it. The actors and directors had to have known that this cannot possibly be anything other than the worst movie ever made. Even the title alone reeks of stupidity. On Saturday night I rented 2012. Apparently, even though the world is ending and the continent is underwater, you can still use your cell phone.
But I did make a delicious discovery: The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. I'm sorry Starbucks, but I have found something better: raspberry scones that taste like Lucky Charms cereal and hot vanilla, which is like melted clouds. Yum!
I ran an 18 miler on Saturday and then biked 18 miles that afternoon in gorgeous weather. I also got a bit bronzed. It's fun looking at the stranger in the mirror. On to a new week of running. Got some marathons coming up!

Life
I got my itinerary to China along with the final invoice. Yes, everything good in life comes with a price.
I will do an upcoming post about my trichotillomania. I finally broke down and bought a wig. I was experimenting in the mirror with it after the shame I felt in buying it. I never thought it would come to that, but I have a problem and am seeking help.

Weekend
I spent the weekend hiking and biking in this beautiful "green" desert. I really mean green. With the amount of rain this winter has seen, we are left with beautiful lush hills, purple wildflowers, blooming cacti and the fragrant smell of lemons and oranges. Driving around smells like liquid detergent...and I mean that in a good way.
So someone I was hiking with has done Ironman New Zealand and he couldn't say enough good things about it...Crap, another race I must do!! Maybe next year as it has already past this year and after Ironman AZ, I am so tired of biking all the time. I heard from him that Qantas didn't charge him to check his bike box, so bless you Qantas. My dream is to do the Byron Bay triathlon in Australia, so someday that will happen. Too much travel and not enough time nor money, so I have to be picky about where I go. I want to go to Africa again, so I have that on the list as well.

What is your six-word memoir?
In one of my linkedin writing groups, someone proposed the following:
Members are asked to sum up their lives, their personalities, their individual essences, in six words only.
The responses have been very cool. Here is mine: Behind the curtain, you'll find me.
It's a bit cryptic, but describes my personality.

Daydreaming about...
A marathon finish time such as this:

Competing in another Ironman in an exotic locale

Beautiful Channing Tatum

British Daniel Craig

Australian Curtis Stone

Academy Award Nominee Jeremy Renner

Migraine
Last evening I was enjoying watching the Oscars and my future husband, Jeremy Renner, who took his mom to the awards. How cute is that???
Anyway, just before he was to get up on stage, my vision started to go and a migraine came. I lose my eyesight during migraines and was up till 3am with pain. I am still feeling the headache today.
I just can't seem to catch a break with my health lately. I had a sickness that lasted almost three weeks and now a migraine. I am so ready to be in a better state of mind and body.
