<p>Good Morning,</p>
<p>Wow, it is 6:15 and no one has started this yet?  Today is the day I should find out my actual start date.  I have to go to my new office to complete the paperwork, get fingerprinted and then get a drug test done. mrs. Boiler was concerned that drinking beers last night was going to show up on the drug test. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I got the mural drawn up on the wall and after I get some small brushes today, I will start painting it. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have NO Desire to run today, BUT i will drag my butt out the door and I figure once I get going I will get it done.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a good day.</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Morning.  Off to run in a bit.  I have been slacking off on my running all summer so I hope that this gets me back in the mood to do so.</p>

<p>My six year old thinks it is the funniest thing in the world to ask "are we there yet?" as I am pulling out of the driveway.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good morning!  If the weather holds, I'll go on a run this morning and then take the kids swimming.</p>

<p>my sis used to ask, "Are we still in Wisconsin?" no matter if it was a one hour or eight hour road trip. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/rolleyes.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;" title=""></p>

<p>bootcamp leader had us in the stinkyskankyhot high school gym today for a ROCKIN' KICK ASS workout <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/headbang.gif" style="width:26px;height:28px;" title=""></p>
<p> </p>
<p>*lordy, it was hot*</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Rhetorical question: why do a handful the folks who joined this class saunter between stations, stand around sipping water, ponder the workout, only go at each exercise halfway, and not even ATTEMPT to improve?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>leader has said several times:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>"I'm trying to get you comfortable at feeling uncomfortable."</p>
<p>"You get out of it what you put into it."</p>
<p>"Try to do two good pushup/lunge/squats instead of 10 sucky ones with poor form."</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm snarky today, eh? <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/roll_eyes.gif" style="width:15px;height:15px;" title=""></p>
