A Runner's Ramblings

Introducing "A Runners Ramblings" , a new blog by my friend Leslie who is training for the Marine Corps Marathon  in October. Check out her site and learn what goes through a runners mind while pushing through the miles on the rural roads of Maryland's Eastern Shore. In between her revelations of private thoughts and emotions experienced while running, Leslie frequently highlights her iPod playlists and describes what songs inspire her throughout her training. I  never knew that Beethoven's 5th took the edge off of nausea caused by sidestepping hudreds of diemboweled toad carcasses!

Trailer Trash

Not that there hasn't been plenty to blog about, but I've been a busy bee working all summer. We haven't taken any summer trips at all and normally I'd be a raging bitch acting all Chupacabra-like by now; overworked, under-beached, and not to freakin' relaxed at all. But I feel fine, excited even, and it's not even a chemically induced buzz. You see, 2 weeks ago hubby and I celebrated our 8th anniversary by buying ourselves a big shiny 26 foot piece of history ....a 1963 Airstream trailer. Yup! Not only are we rednecks living in a house with a tarpaper roof,have more than 3 non-functioning cars in our yard, but are now officially trailer trash.

Check out the new digs HERE.

And, YES, it has it's own (Devine) pink flamingoes!
