11 things about me:
1. My flight out to San Diego yesterday for the Carlsbad Marathon was cancelled due to snow.
2. I slipped and fell flat on my ass in said snow when I was out getting mail and walking the dogs.
3. The dogs looked on in horror as mail spewed everywhere. I got a good shot of snow up my back.
4. I was completely uninjured. Not even the ornery hamstring protested. Spry.
5. Why do I find it hilarious when someone wipes out? Even myself?
6. I booked a cruise for spring break the day after the Concordia fiasco. Defiant? Stupid? You be the judge.
8. Since I didn't fly yesterday, I worked on a cookie recipe that has quinoa in it.
9. Chocolate-covered almonds need to be banned from this house. There is no moderation for me with these.
10. I've been hitting the weights hard lately. And my weight is going up. Is it muscle? Or the damn almonds?
11. I have a plane to catch today. Snow has stopped. San Diego here I come!

Have a fun weekend!
Remember only a couple days left for my giveaway!
Honey sesame sticks, chocolate covered almonds, the chocolate covered espresso things that Trader Joe's sells cannot be allowed in my house. I will eat them until I am sick without fail.
ReplyDeleteHave a great race!!!
I slipped and fell walking the dog in the snow today too. Bungee always gets upset and starts freaking out when I fall. Luckily this one didn't hurt. I hate it when it hurts!
ReplyDeleteGood luck getting on the flight today!!
Glad your flight today is a go. Have fun this weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh...you tagged me. Great! Now I have something to blog about. :-)
love a good wipe out in the snow, even when it hurts. best wishes for the race, you're gonna cream it!
ReplyDeleteand oh my now i suppose it's my time to share...
I figure, the chances of an "incident" on a cruise drop significantly if there was one recently. Lightning doesn't strike twice and all that jazz.
ReplyDeleteHope you got to your marathon. I prefer it cold for sure.
ReplyDeleteI like those shoes, it's most certainly muscle, and I'm glad you weren't hurt so your fall could be funny. My reaction is always 1)laugh 2) oops...are they hurt 3) no they're ok, laugh again.
ReplyDeleteHave a great flight! I'll get on this soon. :)
Fun post! Sorry that your flight was cancelled, but I'm glad you have another one so that you can get to your race!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that your fall didn't leave you injured so that you can rock the race!
this is fun!
ReplyDeleteI hope you made it here ok
I was raining today you should be A+ for tomorrow!!! enjoy Carlsbad! I love that town
Sounds like you made the most of your canceled flight! Did you perfect this quinoa cookie recipe?
ReplyDeleteyour so cute! Glad you still get to go to San Fran have a fantastical race!
ReplyDeleteI;m glad your trip wasn't canceled for the entire weekend. San Diego is the best, looking forward to your race report.
ReplyDeleteBrrr, I hate getting snow up my back. Hope you have a great marathon!
ReplyDeleteDelayed flight and a fall on the ice? That would have made me a crabby mess!! Hope you got out the A-OK. Have a FABULOUS run!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Marcia... I went ahead and posted mine answers and whatnot tonight!
ReplyDeleteBOO for the flights being canceled (and then falling) ugh... so something that I would do!
Fun post! That icy face looks really cold.
ReplyDeleteI always love a random meme :) the name anagram is a neat idea!
ReplyDeleteI've never gotten a flu shot and don't plan to. For now at least. Gold or platinum! Never snow ski'd but I have snowboarder and I hated it. Plus I twisted my knee so I decided I'd rather not snow-sport because I didn't want to injure myself and not be able to run. Last water-ski memory I have.... Well let's just say I got an all-natural enigma. Haha
what are those non-running shoes, they look comfy!
ReplyDeleteIt was so good to meet you yesterday, girl! I had a really good time hanging with you guys.
ReplyDeleteI recognize your 'favorite shoes'. ::smiles::
