Shot day. It still itches a bit. Im hoping for a response like last week's and we'll be able to take it the next step up next week.

Hubby has a consult today for the lump on his finger. Im not kidding you, on the way to his appointment this morning I saw no fewer than 12 vanity plates. The most memorable on the trip to was I RPBLCN (at 2 lanes over and 65 mph, not a chance the camera was gonna catch that one). We saw at least 5 in the parking lot of that small diner we like to go to and several on the way home. My favorite was a jaw dropper on the way to the dr's office that I missed entirely due to being in shock which read DADS ROD. Hmmm...first that and then I come in to the blogs to see that iggy dropped a nut. No wonder I need a cold shower.... I lost count on the plates when I got into the 20s but I expect in the drive to the consult (in Fair Oaks), then to the diner (Fair Oaks), then the dr's office (back to Manassas), then to WallyWorld and both grocery stores (Shoppers then Bottom Dollar for the bananas because they have them much cheaper)....well I suspect at least 25-30+ total vanity plates. I managed to get about 4 or 5 because traffic made it difficult (that and this slow as molasses camera...). Ah well. I'll be putting them in the Photobucket tomorrow.

Seems like my pedalling speed's going down some. I suspect it's mostly because the seat's gotten rather uncomfy the last couple days or so. Feels like I've lost some cushion back there. At least I seem to be at a semi-comfy speed. So long as I burn 350 calories a trip, I'll be happy for now as it's approximately one meal's worth of calories. I am a trifle unhappy with myself though. I got on the scales at the dr office (full belly and kidneys due to the 32 oz of tea I'd had at lunch AND my sneaks were still on) and I weighed in at 4 pounds HEAVIER than just before Christmas. *sigh* Time to knuckle down again I guess.

There's a lady who works by me and her plates are USRULZ, it's on a 9/11 Rememberance plate. Everytime I see it, I miss read it as Ursula or something.

The holidays are tough for weight loss, don't be too hard on yourself.

If you only gained four pounds, I think you're doing pretty good. Knuckle down, keep riding, and watch what and how much you eat. Those pounds will come off pretty quick, I bet.

LMAO @ USRULZ, I first read that as Ursula Z, but then I saw the reference to 9/11, re-read it and figure it means US Rules.

You are a BEAST woman! I'm certainly jealous of all the energy you have!! Hope Hubby's finger is OK. My neighbor's hubby had a scare a couple of nights ago and had to be hospitalized. He came home today, and it's all good, thank God! BTW, don't forget Sx3 tomorrow...it's a 3-parter!

My Howdy Doody decoder ring broke... I RPBLCN?

Maybe I should ask a chatter named TwoCorks...
