Yes, I could have, but I won't be online tomorrow.  Or the next day.  Or the day after that either.   I guess I just COULDN'T WAIT to share the totals with all of you.   </p>
<p> </p>
<p>See y'all.  Happy New Year.</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Hey all!  I made it back to Wisconsin this afternoon.  Our trip was epic.  We had SO.MUCH.FUN.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yeah <strong>bOb</strong>, the game was ugly (and a real nail-biter), but we had such an awesome time.  All of us have lost our voices and the boys just had a wonderful time.  I'll post up some pics on Facebook when I am done catching up on the million and six things I need to catch up on.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I was scheduled to run an hour today and let me tell you it was TOUGH when I came home to 34 degrees, slick roads, brutal wind and sleet.  Bah.  Not easy to motivate after 5 days of ideal weather in Florida and a long travel day.  But I got out there and got it done....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Congrats to <strong>Bard and Moon</strong> - I assume they are home by now.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Congrats to <strong>Duck</strong> - that gym sounds great.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Congrats to <strong>Ailarie</strong> on 1K!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Congrats to <strong>Kath</strong> on having the cutest dog evah.  Seriously.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Who else?  I know I am missing stuff and I am sorry, but I have to run off and shower before I start completely freezing over..... </p>

<p>Hi all - I'll just borrow from my FB post</p>
<p> </p>
<h6 class="uiStreamMessage"><em><span style="font-size:12px;"><span class="messageBody">2600.1 miles<br>
9 states driven through (CA, AZ, NM, TX, OK, MO, IL, IN and OH)<br>
43 state license plates (sorry AK, DE, HI, MT, SD, VT, WV) plus DC and 3 Canadian Provinces (AB, ON, and QC) spotted<br>
Resting up with <strong>Kris</strong> at her place in Columbus </span></span></em></h6>
<p> </p>
<p>Those treats sound drunkifying <strong>Brandy</strong> - very intrigued to find out how they turn out.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lots of luck to you <strong>KJ</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hopefully everyone's had good days today - take care!</p>
<p> </p>

<p>As you can see from Joe's post, we made it.  No fights, though we are learning a few quirks about each other that hadn't yet come to the fore.   <span><img alt="lol.gif" id="user_yui_3_4_1_7_1325287630940_167" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/lol.gif">  </span> After the New Year's festivities (which are taking place in my hometown), we have about 2 weeks here in this place and then we are moving to our bigger, new place together.  I'm glad we won't be here long.  I've already packed some stuff, which is stacked in the corners and other stuff is scattered, and there is suddenly a lot less room in here than usual (and it's a tiny place to start with).</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Brandy-</strong>  what about doing an alcoholic glaze to pour on them after they are made, kinda like what you would do with a <a href="http://allrecipes.com/recipe/glorias-rum-cake/detail.aspx" target="_blank">rum cake</a>? </p>
<p> </p>
<p>New Year's Eve is at my sister's house with all my sibs and some friends.  Kids are welcome, there will be movies and video games for them to play, etc.  The adults will be having a snobby beer tasting.  Joe planned ahead and got some Russian River and Deschutes stuff for our contribution, as well as some hard ciders for my sister-in-law (gluten-intolerant) and brother-in-law (doesn't like beer).  Many of us will be staying there, those who are not will have selected a DD.</p>

<p>Alcoholic glaze sounds interesting....next time </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I made them and they are REdonkUlush...omg</p>
<p> </p>
<p>1 stick of butter</p>
<p>2 bags of mini marshmallows</p>
<p>almost a whole bag of krispies</p>
<p>Marshmallow vodka to taste (i probably used about 1/8 of the bottle)</p>
<p>butterscotch schnapps to taste (I used more of that)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now they are sticking together too great so I popped them in the freezer but man....they are wonderful. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am thinking of leaving them up there until tomorrow and then molding them into cupcake liners or something for easier eating</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The jello shots are good too </p>

I thought you didn't want to taste the liquor?</p>
