Whew! I feel better.
So, I am "dieting." Only, it's not really dieting as much as it's just "paying attention to what the hell I am cramming into my 'pie hole'." PATWTHIACIMPH, or the german Kuchenloch for short, is a very trendy new food fad where the participant actually prepares food, then, spends more than 30 seconds inhaling it. Chewing actually takes place. And, I have actually had time to taste and smell what I am eating, so I suppose that is positive as well.
However, I am starving. However, I can not wear any bottoms that don't consist of elastic. However, I miss mindless snacking. However, I get startled when I walk by a mirror wondering why the chick from "Bridesmaids" is in my house.
Get ready world. I am a lean, mean, kuchenloching machine!

Jazz Fest 5K
July race is completed! Jazz Fest 5K in Sioux Falls was great! Humidity is unreal compared to Texas but it is much cooler!
Ok, small race rant. This course was a double loop figure 9. Meaning you finish on the same stretch you started after doing 2 loops. There was a woman who showed up 5 minutes to race time in jeans and cowboy boots. Her friend handed her shorts and a Tshirt and tennis shoes. She started ahead of me, walked the whole time, I passed her 2 times ( on the stretch) and finished RIGHT BEHIND ME in the shoot. There is no mathematical way she dis the loop twice. Meaning, she ended up having a better time than a few ladies who were running their booty off.
I love running and part of what I love is encouraging new runners. Thus chick came out today and just made a mockery of what we all work so hard at. Sad.
Anywho... Fun day!!!

Mirror to your faults
Sometimes it really takes seeing a problem in someone else, before you can see the problem in yourself.
Hoarding: I vow to stop keeping things I don't need. I vow to plug in the shredder in the kitchen so I can rid my life of paperwork. I also vow to keep everything orderly and clean, because God forbid someday my children have to call A&E to come do an episode on me.
Body Image: I am not fat. I may be fatter than I'd like, but I have the power to change that. Eat less/better. Run. End of story. Stop whining. You never want to be that woman shopping who keeps saying, "well, I don't want to buy that size because I am going to loose some weight!"

Neon Desire...
I REALLY want to buy this running top from Target. It's only $12. But I haven't even run 12 times in the last 2 months! How can I justify that!
So I figure, if I can go run everyday till we leave for vacation next Sunday, then I will let myself buy it. Let's see how that works for motivation!

No, I am not Kim Kardashian
I know what you're thinking. "But you ARE Kim Kardashian, aren't you?" I mean, I really do get that all the time, and I can see why! First, we are both human. As that is a rare commodity I share with only...6,927,785,438 other people, I think that's worth mentioning first. Next, we both come from very exotic lineage. Kim is Armenian and her parents are famous just as she is. My heritage is German Lutheran with a touch of Irish and French. My parents are also famous, but of course I don't need to tell you that.
But the real reason people assume I am Kim, is our looks. With her raven hair and dark eyes, it's easy to see how I am constantly confused for Ms. K. Couple that with my tummy and lacking backside and it makes impossible to tell us apart.
Just wanted to clear that up. Thank you!

So...I know I can't dance...
So You Think You Can Dance is the closest thing to what I do on TV today. You'd think I'd say Glee, but that'd be only half true. Sure, Glee is actually about my profession, but it's not like what I do. While watching the last round of city auditions tonight, in LA, I was struck by how much this show is like my show choir. People audition year after year, sometimes they get to choreography, sometimes they get to Vegas, and sometimes after many tries, they make the top 20. Just like VOC, some kids try for YEARS to make the group and when they finally do, OH! What a payoff! And then there is the alumni. SYTYCD always has previous season dancers sitting in the audience during city auditions, cheering on the newbies, checking on their legacy. VOC is no different.
