I went backpacking for the first time and it was a total blast, I can't wait to go again!  On the car ride back I was reminded of this game of sorts called ewww do, who do, and the freebies, when I first heard about this I had no idea what it was but my friend kindly explained.  An ooo do is a celebrity that you think is gross but you would do them just because they are famous (i.e. Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler, or George W), a who do, is basically...who would you do?  And of course the freebies, you get two I suppose, this is the persons that your significant other or spouse will allow you to do if ever the impossible opportunity should arrive.  Here is my list (of course this may change from day to day):

The Ewww Do's:

• Tommy Lee


• Steven Tyler

This weekend I'll be going backpacking with some friends from work.  This is going to be my first backpackig trip ever!  I'm a little nervous and excited all at the same time, I'm not worried about endurance or the weight of the pack...the thing that scares me the most is not showering for 2 day's what's unfortunate is that I couldn't get a sherpa to carry a generator so that I can plug in my hair dryer.  One thing for sure, I believe it is standard practice for "The Girl" from a guy, a girl, and a bottle carry a bottle of wine in my backpack.

I'm going to take pictures of my adventure and post them on my page, it should be a hell of  time.

I'm getting excited because today is the start of training for the Sacramento International Marathon, this will be my second.  I like training because it gives me a purpose, although I really don't need purpose to run I just like to do it because it clears my head, and it prevents me from going on a killing rampage during that special time of the month.  When I say rampage, think of the blood bath during Kill Bill Vol. 1, damn those raging hormones, damn them all to hell!

Anyway, I'm hoping to improve my speed, I have a few things that I'm going to do and hopefully I'll be able to shave some time off my last finish of 4:29.  Ultimately, I would love to run the Boston Marathon but I just don't see myself making that goal during this Marathon, but you never know...because I do believe in fairies, I do, I do believe in fairies.

If any of you just happen to have any suggestions, tips, or words of wisdom.  I've been listening to Steve Runner's podcast and I've learned quite a bit about what not to do!  I will keep you posted on my progress, today I'm just doing an easy 3 mile run hopefully the 10 pounds I gained from bindge eating doesn't weigh me down.  Damn it, I just love Taco Bell!

Last night I went out with my girlfriend and we saw the Devil Wears Prada...Oh My God!!! What an awesome movie, not to mention it makes you want to live on water and a single raisin so you can be a size 2...there was a part in the movie that said a size 6 is the new size 14...eek, I'm a size 4 so that makes me the new size 8, ugh...I have to get some water and some raisins because I'm a lard ass.

The movie not only made you feel like a frumpy lard ass, it also made you feel like the Walmart fashionista.  Plastered all over the movie was Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blanik's, Dolce & Gabbana, Karl Lagerfeld, and of course Prada.  My credit card finger was itching...and even worse we saw the movie at Santana Row in San Jose that has shops like Chanel, Chico's, and Gucci.  God help me!

After the movie we went out for Cocktails, my favorite part about going out to bars is mainly the people watching.  My girlfriend doesn't get out much, so it was fun to force her to loosen up a bit and talk shit about people. It was amazing watching some of the women and the guy's, there was this one chick she was attractive, but it looked like she stuck her finger in a light socket, she actually teased her hair.  Then there are the the ugly chicks who think they are all that and a bag of chips, it's amazing how some of these women squeeze into jeans they shouldn't be wearing, then there are the others that have a nice body nice tits, great hair and their face needs the work of a skilled plastic surgeon.  Of couse then there are the guy's, that are looking for a date but will never find one because they are too shy to even approach even the ugly fat chick.  Anyway  usually  when I go out I like to have a purpose because I hate just standing there making idle chit chat over the loud music, and since I'm married I'm not really scanning for a play thing.   So I was curious about the people and their occupations, so I proceeded to ask people what their jobs were, yep I just walked up to them and asked.  Of course you have to account for he people who are basically lairs.  There were a few people who were in the medical device industry just like me, there especially was this guy who was drop dead gorgous (I think he liked me), and he was in sales, I've noticed that most everyone in sales is attractive I suppose you don't want someone looking like a troll marketing your shit. There was a chick who we thought was a kindergarten teacher but she was a paralegal, then the marine biologist, cocktail waitress, project managers for software companies (lots of software people), and of course...drum roll please...internet porn, I would love to believe that the guy was telling the truth that he started an internet porn business but he was dressed like a college boy,  I know how lucrative the porn business is and he should have been at the very least wearing Banana Republic.  Well the night was over and it got late and my friend had to get up early, and after a few drinks I didn't want to look like the drunk, sloppy, lunatic who's asking people what they do for a living.
