Power Breakfasts and Baby Elephants

Wrecked my computer keyboard last night by knocking a glass of wine over it. Dummy!!!! Too busy trying to do 10 things at once. Or was it the fact that I had lost control of my limbs due to said wine and my consumption of it... We will never know. It will be one of life's great unknowns..

Went for a run this morning and did seven miles. First five around Draycote in 44 minutes so 2 mins off the pace that I would like, but still full of aches and pains... And then two miles around the walkways where I live.

I had a 'power-breakfast' to give me the energy to really push it. It was raisins, nuts, honey & oat crunchy cereal. The only thing that it had me powering was my run to the toilet to release what I can only describe was like giving birth to a small elephant. I then felt totally ropey but ran anyway.

However, I weighed myself and am happy to see a few more pounds drop off, which is not really a surprise considering what I dropped down the toilet..... I will have Severn Trent putting me on a special tariff if I ever try the 'power-breakfast' route to fitness again.



Not much else happening really. Just chilled out today. Went up town for a bit and saw Anthony my mate and gave him the finger through the shop window, then got a birthday card for John, who's blog link is up there in the top right-hand corner. It was as gay as I could find, without going into a proper gay shop, and a picture frame for a piccy of Kez in a pink cowboy hat that her Mum took whilst at a concert last week.

Why-oh-why does it take for eternity to drive the 3 miles into town!!!! The traffic is totally pants!!! And then the thicko shoppers who just dawdle and dither. Don't they know that time is precious!!!!! They are wasting loads of it.. ARRGGH!!!

Right, just putting a few more pics on Facebook, MySpace and trying to iron out a few bugs on LinkedIn before I break off and start getting ready for Kezzy coming round, and this week's stay in another hotel. We are joined by a 4th amigo this week, so the fun should go up by 25%!!! LOL

Why does everyone I know have a really kewl MySpace page, but mine is totally pants and boring. I just cannot work it out!!!! Another one of life's great unknowns....
