Today's happy occurrence:After a shit day of work where I let loose the F bomb during coffee break and also had a bout of hysterical laughter and wanted to do nothing more than sit in the bathtub with a glass of wine, I instead went to Starbucks around 7.30 because that's where everyone goes after the running clinic. The clinic started a couple of weeks ago but I have been going to boot camp on Tuesdays and Thursdays instead, so I haven't seen my running mates since the last event in early May. It was definitely nice to get there, order a coffee, turn around and see A (who was one of the torch bearers for the Olympics) come in and strike up a conversation like it had only been a few days since we last saw each other. I miss my running friends and it was great to catch up with a couple of them tonight (and with a very sweaty Michael) and to feel my blood start to pump a little more quickly at the thought of re-joining the clinic shortly.
But then my blood might have been pumping quickly because I didn't have a decaf which was pretty stupid.
Today's memory:
My grandfather picking me up by my elbows when I was a little kid. I don't recall from whence this developed, but I remember being perhaps six or eight years old and absolutely not believing that my tall, slight, bookish grandfather would be able to master the strength to lift me off the ground. But he would place his palms underneath my cocked arms and, his arms shaking slightly, he would lift me up into the air. It was amazing.
The good news:
Douche bags do get caught.

and then let go again...
"She sentenced Taheripari to one year probation, including 50 hours of community work service and a safe driving course."
That's a good memory of your G-pa. I don't have any of good memories of mine. He was to old and frail to do anything with us other that gather rocks in the yard and tell us to throw them at the black kids in the neighborhood. He was VERY racist. He then told my parents we weren't good obedient kids. We had told him we wanted to play with those kids why would we throw rocks at them.
As for the douche bags... douche bags spring from the loins of douche bags... why didn't his family get fined?
You guys are hard to please! The judge did opt to give him a criminal record for his endeavors, ICBC sued him for $6,000, his car is totalled, and his idiocy has been spread round the community for all the revel in...
We want him whipped.
Go on, git out there an whup 'im.
Maybe Jomamma can throw some rocks at him.
Ah, them were the days...
They don't let you stone people to death any more y'know.
*shakes head*
I don't throw rocks at people. I think he should have to work on a chain gang.
