Thanks Mrs. Radical for this hilarious website. Here's one I thought was hilarious.

I am so frustrated right now. I am happy too, but frustrated. I just spent the day with K8E one of my truest and dearest friends. She lives out of state which is why I am frustrated. I was thinking about how a lot of the people who I am closest to and connect with the best and have the most in common with are the farthest away from me. How I long for the days of proximity. But I guess such is life. It would be a too easy life if everyone I cherished the most lived in my neighborhood and I wouldn't have the cursed and blessed opportunity to find my way on my own, learn who I am, find value in my own family, and branch out and make new friends, which I must say are becoming nearest and dearest. Anyway...

I value my friends whether I talk to them everyday, email only, text often, or return calls every three months.

If Katie was one who had time to mindlessly read blogs like I do and would ever possibly see this I would tell her how much I love her and respect her. She just puts out there who she is and is just that. She makes no excuses or white lies, doesn't cover up anything. I love it. It's hard to find someone like her. She is moving here in a year and there will be countless prayers for a way for us to have a closer proximity.

And for the other person, you know who you are, with the good news.... thanks for the awesome secret. I am here for you regardless.

My Weekend In The Saddle

A few things I learned this weekend.

Just a little tip: Don't hop on your road bike the day after loping around the arena on a horse. Ouch and double ouch.
Those two saddles are not interchangeable.

Also don't ride too far with the wind no matter how fun, you have to go back home against the wind.

Make sure your toddler puts a pull up on when you go out. Otherwise you will be burying her poop in the community garden as it falls out of her underwear after she dumps pee out of her shoes.

Wear gloves when weeding, or else you'll grab cat poop.

Don't open your mouth too often while atop a road bike in major wind, you don't know what will go in your mouth.

What did you have for dinner?

I think we should have universal park day. Once a week we have park day, anyone and everyone can come. We can bring lunch and let our kids play at the park. I missed the last one on Friday and me and Lex were saying how fun it'd be. What day works for you? I'll post on our other blog too, but this one reaches a wider group. I was thinking the Riverdale one would be good since it's apparently a hot spot and central.

I think it's funny you go to fast food places and don't know the correct term for some item (aren't Mexi fries just that?) or crisp, fried, soft, burrito? So who cares- whatever I don't order fast food I don't know all your distinctive- to- your- hole- in- the- wall- names, and it's like I am the idiot for not knowing what they call all their crap. Let's punish ME for not having all the different fast food places' menu items memorized. Anyways I did that the other day and thought it was funny that I was being ridiculed for not knowing what they called Mexi fries and not knowing they are not the ones with the crisp bean burrito, DUH TONI.
