I believe it was 5.35? She was really excited it's her first year running track. She's always played basketball and football...so I keep telling her to keep running it's where the college money is! Also she thinks she may want to wrestle next year instead of basketball..so who knows.
Gah..seriously guys..she's a little girl, not even old enough to have a driver's permit let alone a liscense.
This just became hilariously uncomfortable. I lol'ed
There were two girls on our school's wrestling team when I was in High School.. one of them was not good at all but the other was great. She used her greater lower body strength to her advantage, plus her competition usually underestimated her on account of her being a girl. That's really awesome that she's so into sports though, keep encouraging it!
How does what work?? They changed in the girls locker room, did the wrestling practice, changed back.
As far as the actual wrestling, they were treated like one of the guys. Assigned a weight class they had to make, assigned matches with someone else in the weight class, did the match.
If you mean like, "Zomg he groped me!!1" sort of issues, on the mat they were treated like one of the guys and no one made a big deal out of it. Came with the territory and I just assume they realized that before deciding to join the wrestling team? Dunno.
There was never an issue with football...she played on the only football team there was. Treated just like everyone else..with the exception that she played better than most of the boys in her middle school. Wrestling is treated the very same way, just they wear a t-shirt or what have you under their little spandex uniform thingy.
All my kids are atheletic, they get it from Dad. On my way out the door now with the son to take him to his freestyle wrestling meet.
My brother's first baseball game today. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._8224632_n.jpg
did he poo on his pant leg?
NO! That's called stealing second and third.
Female wrestlers were scary when I was in HS. We didn't have any in our school, but we wrestled some. They tended to be very masculine women you wouldn't want to grope.
So I saw this a few months ago and had it saved to my picture file because it makes me laugh:

Going to see Ville Valo and Dommin and We Are The Fallen tonight. :D
12 hour work day today is all overtime.
Working from home and hearing about my boss and coworker fighting over me at the office. My boss is a moron. I seriously hope my coworker wins.
I stopped today to talk to a friend I haven't seen in like a year. I'm not usually that open to talking to people (read: anti-social), especially this week, since I'm moving on Saturday, but I did it anyway.
He gave me the card of a local independent publisher for when I finally "man up and finish that book".
...holy shit that's exciting for me. Now I want to finish moving so I can spend more time writing. Hooray!
Just closer to Richmond. My apartment in Charlottesville is like...this small little cesspit for mold and a creepy landlord who likes to come in the place whenever he wants. Especially when I'm not here. ...Especially with his son-in-law while I'm not here.
I don't like it.
But I DO like where I'm moving!
Hanging out with Konstantine from Dommin last night and picking on him for making pitas since he's Greek.

Trolling another forum with an alternate account named after Vincent Vega. Only a couple of the regulars have caught on and are now egging me (and another poster who made Jules) on.

Turning in my research paper!!
I really love Charlotte Perkins Gilman but seriously why why why why why did I choose The Yellow Wallpaper to microanalyze. Has anyone here ever read that once?? How bout a hundred times?
Never again. Actually I'm pretty sure I wont ever need to read it again. I have it memorized.
Turning in the paper today was better than one smile. I was smiling all damn day. It was like orgasm day. Orgasm day on earth day. Hellz yeah.
This picture made me laugh and smile:

I made cinnamon rolls from scratch. They are delicious.
Next up - figuring out how to make some tasty bread, as I'm sick of paying $6 a loaf for cheddar herby stuff.
Ditto to the bread machine. I love coming home to fresh made bread, especially when all I have to do is pour in the ingredients and push buttons. Even better is when my room-mate is feeling creative and makes up his own recipes. He made the most awesome everything bagel kinda bread a week or so ago.
They do work.

Getting an email from Konstantine. :D
Going to post something that happened to me last week(friday to be exact). A RL friend and coworker wrote this up on the forums of another game we play so rather than taking the time to re-write it to explain the simple thing that made me smile im just going to copy and paste his post.
of course there is nothing in there that made me smile, until I was on my way home when I was bored stuck in Bronx traffic trying to get over the George Washington Bridge when I made a paper airplane out of a dollar bill and threw it out my window at the homeless guy walking down the highway... that made me smile.Quote:
So Anebriated is in New York, Long Island to be precise, for work - like he is every week (Our company is based 20 miles west of Philadelphia, ~140 miles from where he is). This week the company truck he's driving is acting up but nothing to be worried about since it always has been a piece of crap. He decided not to drive home last night and to save a few things for today and drive home this morning, then the truck decided it was going to be a friday in New York asshole. The front right wheel assembly breaks on him, starts smoking and all that good stuff. We get him to a Nissan Dealership after driving 2+ miles on the shoulder with 4-ways on (he's panicked at this point). He pulls into the Nissan lot and the mechanic there is outside starring at the wheel and tells Anebriated that his tire is smoking at which Anebriated says "REALLY?!?!?, fix it." So the Mechanic tells him that he'll take a look and call him with whats wrong (at this point it's 12:00PM today).
Anebriated heads to the nearest bar. I talk to him and we wait until we hear back from the dealership to see if we should be one-way renting a car to get him home today. Mechanic calls back, $2100 to fix the truck (Entire new right front wheel assembly, 2 rear breaks and all the ball bearings) and it won't be ready until monday-tuesday. Hell, the truck is only worth $5000. So now we start with attempting to get Anebriated a rental car, luckily he is 25 now, that's about all he has going for him. There is a Hertz and an Enterprise right by the dealership (there's some good luck) and both companies happen to be clients for our company! So we try the Enterprise first, "Yes, we have cars!", "Great" says Anebriated and hands the lady his drivers license and debit card.... "Oh, we don't take out-of-state licenses or debit cards," "Shit" says Anebriated as he walks out the door to head to the Hertz. He walks into the Hertz, "Yeah we take out-of-state licenses and debit cards" says the man behind the counter, "Awesome" says Anebriated, only problem is that the Hertz has NO CARS....
But wait, there is one car! But it has a check engine light on. "Kick me while I'm down why don't ya" says Anebriated, "Alright I'll take it, just get me home." No problem right? Wrong, turns out hertz must do a credit check for one-way rentals for someone using a debit card and out-of-state license and Anebriated doesn't own a credit card or ever has owned a credit card.... no car from Hertz.
"Fuck" says Anebriated as he calls me for the uptillyenth time today.
So we, at the office, start brainstorming while Anebriated heads back to the bar. The train station is only 1 mile away but he must take all his shit from the company truck there (all files and anything important), then ride it to Penn Station (15.4 miles away) then take a train from Penn Station to 30th St Station (~115 miles away), he'd get home by 2am. Plus Anebriated hasn't rode on a train in 15 years and no one wants to be at Penn Station on a Friday... We could get him on a flight out of LGA to PHL but would cost $300 and how would we get all his shit to the airport which is 10 miles away...So Anebriated pleads with me to figure out some way to get him a car from one of the rental facilities. Let's try giving a credit card over the phone - Nope, gotta swipe it. Let's try renting it through the internet and him picking it up - Nope, need the credit card to pick up. Let's try talking to the front desk of the facilities and explaining what happened - yeah like that's ever worked. It is now 3:00.
Alright, fuck it, let's call all our contacts in Enterprise Corporate until someone can get us a damn car.... bingo. We call our local manager here in Philly and he starts calling some other people. We also have the owner of our company call the "Controller" of Enterprise corporate in St Louis (This guy is the 3rd in charge of the whole company). And I call the Territory Manger at La Guardia Airport who I met this past week. The phone at Great Neck Enterprise starts ringing off the hook with higher ups telling them to rent Anebriated a fucking car. Anebriated goes and gets a buisness card out of the truck at the dealership and proceeds to walk the 'walk of shame' for the 30th time back to the Enterprise, when he walks in the front desk girl is on the phone with a higher up given orders to rent him a car. It is now 5PM.
He now must drive the car back to the dealership and unload anything from the truck he needs and then drive through NYC traffic and NJ turnpike traffic back to Philadelphia.
Smiling 'cause my cats are getting along. I haven't slept in three days though (well a few hours here and there). She likes to sleep on my head for some reason, then attack me whenever she decides to wake up. Love her though. I guess she hates UCONN.

That's amazing lol
I had a weird dream that I was suddenly ostracized on the PC because my boyfriend punched a guy he used to live next to as a kid who was mysteriously at some PC get-together where we were all running/biking together. My outcast-ness was organized and led by Methais. ;_;
And then I woke up and laughed because OF COURSE Methais still loves me. And I'm retarded for having some kind of weird PC dream.
I, too, had a PC-related dream for the first time last night.
I had a dream that Nikki's vagina, having been mauled by a bear into a gaping chasm (BIG PAWS), detached itself from her body and floated around as an assistant / pet.

Woman runs down Lord Jesus Christ
Driver cited for failure to yield to pedestrian
Updated: Friday, 07 May 2010, 8:50 AM EDT
Published : Thursday, 06 May 2010, 9:36 PM EDT
NORTHAMPTON, Mass. (WWLP) - Police say they checked the victim's ID. Northampton police issued a traffic citation this week to a driver whose car hit Lord Jesus Christ.
It happened Tuesday on Main Street in front of Fitzwilly's restaurant.
Northampton Police Lt. Michael Patenaude told 22News 50-year old Lord Jesus Christ of Belchertown was struck as he crossed Main Street around 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
Twenty-year old Brittany Cantarella of Pittsfield was cited for failure to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
Lord Jesus Christ was treated for facial injuries at Cooley Dickinson Hospital.
Lt. Patenaude said Lord Jesus Christ had a Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles identification card.
This genuinely makes me laugh out loud.

A 5 year old (male) child who is 36 pounds and is 3 feet and 8 inches tall has a body mass index of 13.1, which is below the 5th percentile, and would indicate that your child is underweight.
Your child's ideal body weight would be at a BMI at the 5th percentile or above, and so would be at least 38 pounds.

My daughter learned the 'th' sound today and has been butchering the english language by adding it to every word she knows. Or rather, she has been reciting a grand alliteration. A masterful baby sonnet. Made of every four letter vowel/th combination.

Getting a new boss! Woooooo!
The bitch hasn't spoken to me in a week!
Last week she asked me how I would like to improve my job and I told her that I've been unhappy for 6 months and that it's not my job to refine my job since she has made it a point to tell me what's not part of my job. So I'm being transferred to a department with a manager who knows WTF he's doing!
So fuck her. Fuck her with a big stick. I'M FREE!!
I also got A's on my last two classes. Joy! Got rid of the bitch and the good karma is just falling into place.
Becoming single again after too many years. Followed very quickly by extreme fear of not knowing wtf to look forward to everyday.
Telling people in my office for the past week we needed better redundancy checks on server equipment for our clients along with noting higher than normal disk I/O and database thrashing so we should check the disk arrays.
The disk array failed in our biggest client's DB server, catastrophically today. I smiled quite a bit when the big boss asked wtf, and the director said I had been warning of this for a week or more.
This is why you should use iSeries :)
Today's my last day of office work for a month! THAT made me smile!
Knowing today is the first day in a long time I have absolutely nothing to do.
Also, I just realized this is tomorrow, after finding the letter:

I've posted where I go to college before. It's not like it's hard to find out my shiz.

GOOD CALL ROJO DISCO
I'm not sure if this made me smile, but it is good news... It's 8:30 in the morning and I still have my job. It's funny how 6 months changes a persons perspective. I literally quit December 1st and they talked me into staying, and now I'm feeling good because I still have my job?
Not a good year to have a breakdown. 20-30% of the staff here is being let go in the next two weeks.

My kid asking if the logo on the side of a sonic cup (no, we didnt go there) said "Happy whore"
He was trying to sound out happy hour, hahahah. awesome.

My daughter for "tucking me in" to the recliner..complete with blankie, sprite, and kleenex. She's terrific.
Kickball started yesterday. I'm very happy with my team of randomly put together people. We won 11-3. I had two "at kicks", a double, a triple, 3 RBIs, a Run. It's going to be a good season.
Got the dirt into the garden boxes yesterday. 2000 pounds loaded into the truck by me, carried to the back of the yard by me, and loaded in by me. Fucking awesome workout. Then my boys helped by "shoveling" from one box to the other. Good stuff.
Surprise it is a Kina Grannis stream going on right now!!!

I could throw up I'm smiling so hard.
I got new glasses I R luk smrt.
Three boxes, all 4' by 4' one is 2' high, one is 18", and the third is 12". Facing them with castle stone, river rock, and lights because I don't get to be outside much so when I get projects like this I go way, way, way overboard. All the wife wanted was some tilled dirt :)
As for what's growing? Tomatos, onions, peppers, cilantro, jalepenos, aka salsa. I wanted some green beans (fresh green beans, potatos and sausage in a big boiling pot fuck yeah) but I'm not sure if the wife is putting any in.
I'll post up some pics.
FYI, do NOT go overboard when planting tomato plants. You will be up to your ears in them at the end of the season. Also, if you have extra room, plant some cucumbers/carrots/whatever. Those and the tomatoes/onions fresh from the garden make kickass salads when it's too hot to cook.
Nice.
A few years ago, I was asked to create some raised beds. I started with an 8' x 4' bed (8" high) and a 4' x 4' bed (2' high), and we grew spinach, cucumbers, carrots (in the 2' high bed), brocolli, squash/zuccini and beans. Two years ago, I added a 16' x 4' bed and another 8' x 4' bed and I had more veggies than I knew what to do with. I've grown pumpkins, watermelons, onions, garlic, swiss chard, other lettuces, lots of herbs. It's awesome.
I also grow tomatoes, blueberries and strawberries, but not in the beds. Last year I planted dwarf plum, apple and cool-climate peach trees.
I started with about a ton of manure and compost the first year, added vermiculite (to retain water), then started our own compost pile and haven't needed to buy any more since.
Check out 'square foot gardening' on Teh Google.
GARDENING, FUCK YEAH.
Very cool. Yeah when we eventually move I want to grab some land so I can put some things like that but on our postage stamp it's not happening :)
