I Totally Deserved It
Some of you may know that I have been taking a spinning class. Spinning is a wonderful cardiovascular activity where you burn several hundred calories in a single class. I love spinning and love the stress relief it offers me. Many benefit from weight loss in a spinning class. I, however, have not had the benefit of pounds and fat falling off my frame. But I have experienced some rock solid quad and calf muscles. Seriously, I'm pretty dang proud of these muscles.
I've developed the habit of walking around, flexing my muscles, and then asking those around me to "feel my leg." Well, it appears I may have crossed the line. You see, I was pestering SuperDaysh (a daily task) and kept saying, "Feel my leg." The first time, she nicely poked and said, "Wow, that's firm." The second time I said it, she ignored me. The third time I asked, while standing right in front of her, she punched me! And it hurt!
I suppose I deserved that one. But I still hope I hurt her hand a little bit.
*Hugs*

He Said, She Said
I love listening to my parents tell stories about how they met. I always have. But for some reason, the stories have become more entertaining lately. Last week I was asking my parents, for the millionth time, how they met. I was so entertained by the conversation.
I asked, “What do you remember about the first time you met?”
He (my dad) said: We were at the Cannon Center at BYU. It was a dance and I saw your mom standing alone on the side of the room. She was wearing an orange dress with navy blue and yellow stripes. She had on orange shoes. The shoes had a little bit of a heel…they weren’t flat, but they weren’t very tall. Her hair was up and she had an orange bow tied in her hair. I remember exactly how I felt when I first saw her. I was so scared to ask a girl to dance.
She (my mom) said: He was wearing a sweater.

A Bit of Randomness
Some random goodness for my fellow blog readers:
- Does it seem strange to anyone but me that Al Rocker, the weather man, was working the red carpet at the Oscars?
- I'm so sick of hearing about the Octuplet mom. Seriously, just leave her alone already.
- There's no reason for me to wear makeup to work anymore.
- Mr. Obama, you've got some explaining to do.
- I could really go for some froyo from the YoZone. It's a buffet of frozen yogurt goodness.
- I'm kind of bummed today. I'm sure I'll be better by tomorrow.

Just for Fun
Today, I decided to look up the cost of an airplane ticket to Zurich. Just for fun. I found a flight that had a 12 hour layover in JFK. 12 hours? Just enough time to hit up China Town for a new purse! Tempting, very tempting.
