I ran my first 5k last Saturday, and I liked it so much that I want to do it again! I definitely need to do some training before the next one on Sept. 12, because I am still feelin' that last one. I also need to improve my time by 7 minutes. Anyone else want to run it with me? It is in P.G. (Brittani!!) and registration is $10 if you don't want the t-shirt.

You know you are a bit too pre-occupied with your budget when...

I was out running errands with the four musketeers today; grabbing some essentials like diapers and socks. Last of all, we stopped off to fill up our little propane tank for our BBQ-er. As the salesman put the full tank into the trunk of our van, he wanted to make sure we went straight home with it, as it would be a very bad thing to leave that out in our van in the heat. As we drove away, Ethan asks me: What would happen if it blew up? We would die, I said. Instantly, I think "well then I would have just wasted all that money."
