So speaking of resilient, I ran 9 miles tonight in the coldest weather ever. In shorts and t-shirt no less! It was probably 45 degrees and really windy. Your probably asking yourself, why didn't you just wear warmer clothes? Well... I'll let you pick the answer:
- I'm a super hardcore runner, who won't let the cold prevent me from running!
-OR- - I'm too cheap to buy good cold weather running gear.
I think a combination of the weather, work stress, and yes, even home stress has me in a little funk. This funk is by no means on the magnitude of my previous funk. But being that it has been 6 months since that one, I was about due.
I've been kinda disappointed I probably won't hit my goal weight by the end of the year. Actually, I'm not sure if I can actually get down to the weight I want to. No, that's a lie. I can probably get to that goal, I'm just not willing to do what it would take. (i.e. deny myself to even more extremes) It was a pretty arbitrary goal that I basically just pulled out of my ass, so I shouldn't be so hard on myself. But at the same time, I've hit so many other goals, I just want to hit this last one and be done with it. But that's just it... hitting that goal weight isn't "The End", it's just another new beginning.
Alright, enough ramblings from my crazy ass, and on to the real reason you are visiting my blog. Yes, I saved them until the end, so tough!

Look out, it's the sock baby!
Ahhh... isn't that cute, L for Love!
I thought it would be fun to compare/contrast these next two pictures. What is interesting, is that they are only a MONTH apart. But she just seems so much taller in the second picture! I mean, her head is almost level with the keyboard now, where she had to look straight up at it before.

go get some freaking wind pants and a hooded sweatshirt and get it over with! people who run in the winter tell me there is no reason i shouldn't be able to run outdoors in the winter so that is what i will tell you.
spend $50 for pants and a sweatshirt, spread that cost out over the course of the winter and BAM! its a reasonable price to pay to run outside for so many months.
I agree with Brent, quite whining about being cheap and go buy yourself some cold weather running clothes. Think about it, Shawn. What will cost more; your cold weather running clothes or a membership to the YMCA?
Also, the pictures of Megan are uber cute! I especially like the one with the headphones. The two comparison pictures are interesting. They also show that in one months time she has learned how to stand on her toes.
