good feeling, won't you stay with me...

To make up for the last looooooong blog post, here's a list post. Law of Averages, right? Somehow this means that all my posts are witty and concise, right? Right? uh...nevah mind.

So. Good and/or amusing things about today:

1. Completing W4D2 of Couch to 5K without wanting to die.
2. Completing strength training while wanting to die, but not actually dying.
3. Staying in touch w/friends even when they are not close geographically.
4. Driving past the Piggly Wiggly in Manitowoc and seeing....court jesters? (NB: Oh! Even cooler. Italian flag throwers!)
5. Buying strawberries! Scads of strawberries! I'm locavoracious!
6. Finding recipe for white cake with strawberry buttercream for Benjamin's birthday.
7. Finding out that Steve Stricker AND Tom Watson are doing well at the British Open.
8. Making fool out of self at gym by doing a cheer on the treadmill upon finding out #7 (nobody can tell what you are watching in the bank of TVs...)
9. Not minding one whit about #8.
10. Having two healthy, amusing, and usually well-behaved kids.
11. Handling the situation well when one said kid is NOT well behaved.
12. Pasta with basil/arugula/walnut pesto.
13. Pinot Grigio.
14. Steve's day off tomorrow.
15. Finding a pithy and summative way to end this list.....oh, darn.
