Usually my commute is a breeze, but today it was a rainy and the interstate was all backed up and slow. I didn't see an accident but did see a couple of cop cars on the side with flashing lights, so assumed it was leftover from something else and everyone has to slow down and gawk (really, people, it's just a car with lights). I found out it wasn't your typical accident - "Morrisville, N.C. — Five pigs fell out of a truck and got loose on Interstate 40, causing traffic congestion during the Wednesday morning commute, Durham police said.Multiple...

Exciting Times
Posted on 9:33 AM by Unknown

Tassie from a couple of days ago. She had gotten out of control fluffy and was bringing in the backyard all over the house. She constantly had stuff stuck to her (you can see a few bits in the picture) because she loves laying out there. I think she does look pretty cute all fluffy, although I'm sure it must be hella annoying to have all that fur on your nose.Yesterday we got her shaved. Wimpiest mohawk ever, but I will dye it pink this weekend and...

Marathon Watching
Posted on 7:28 AM by Unknown

Sunday morning I cheered Marty and many others on at the Tobacco Road Half and Full Marathon. They really lucked out with the weather. All week the forecasters kept on saying that Sunday would be cool with the highs for the day only reaching the 60’s. I never believed them, particularly when Saturday was 80 degrees and sunny (beautiful day for a brick, I might add!) But sure enough, Sunday was gray and cool; perfect for the racers.I don’t think...

March Madness
Posted on 6:01 AM by Unknown
Oh, how I love this time of year - March Madness! It's very hard to stay focused at work when all sorts of games are going on. Luckily, this area has huge fans and it's sort of expected that people might be sneaking games on their computers or camping out in the cafeteria to watch the tv's in there.We have an office pool going within the Finance organization. My brackets are long shots due to the fact that I have to go with my heart over stats on a lot of these games. Case in point:I'm in love with Jimmer Fredette. My all time favorite basketball...

Copy Cat
Posted on 11:39 AM by Unknown
Okay, I'm just copying what I've seen on other people's blogs recently which is not very original but these things can be fun, too. Anyways, two posts in one week from me is like a minor miracle recently, so, you're welcome ;)A: Age – 31B: Bed – QueenC: Chore you dislike – ummm, every chore? But probably cleaning the bathroom (shower, toilet, floor…yuck)D: Dogs – Tassie, pronounced Tazzy – we spelled it the Australian way because she is named after Tasmania, which the locals call Tassie (fantastic place to visit, FYI). Now thinking back, I wish...

Diving off the blocks

I'm planning on doing the North Carolina Master's State Championship meet in early April. No need to qualify for this or anything, you just simply sign up. We have several swimmers from our team who are going to do it, and I thought it would be fun...and scary since this is COMPLETELY out of my comfort zone.First things first, I need to learn how to dive off the blocks.I've gone off the blocks several different times at the pool we swim at with little...

Camp Fun
Posted on 12:15 PM by Unknown

Oh man, I had a blast at tri camp and am trying to keep my head above water now as I'm back at home and in real life. No more just thinking about swim, bike and running in the Florida heat.So to start - I left Monday night and flew to Tampa. Delayed flight had me getting in late, but all the early arrivals to the beach house were up and greeted me. There were 6 of us down there for the early part of the camp which officially started Tuesday morning....
