TEAM IN TRAINING


Chris has signed up for TNT again. He's doing another triathlon with them. This time, we're headed for Austin, TX at the end of May.

Also, this time around, he's mentoring some of the other participants. We are going back to the St. Anthony's triathlon in April, as well as a few others. He's just doing those on his own, as a part of the Peachtree Triathlon Club.

We will also be hosting (I assume) another cocktail party to raise money for TNT. If you are interested in purchasing a cake from me (proceeds to go to TNT), let me know.

Here's the link for you to donate to Team In Training.

I was tagged!!!

Rachel tagged me to tell SEVEN interesting things about me... Considering that most people who look at my blog have known me for... forever, some of my things might not be so interesting, but I will try to spice it up...just the same...Here it goes...

1. I absolutely LOVE to read... I love to get completely lost in a book. And, I do... ask Chris- he has to yell at me sometimes to get my attention when I'm lost in a book. I usually envision myself as the main character (if it's a girl, of course)...my new favorite books to read are the Stephanie Plum novels written by Janet Evanovich. Stephanie cracks me up (if you haven't read them, she's basically a "Bounty hunter from hell" because she is definitely not qualified for the job and has crazy things happen to her. Plus her two love interests (Ranger and Joe)... I'll just say YUM!

2. I wish I had a good voice. I LOVE to sing... therefore, I love any music I can sing to. Unfortunately, my voice isn't that strong... and I'm extremely shy and would never sing in front of anyone.

3. I wish I wasn't as shy and quiet as I am. I've always wanted to be a loud and outgoing girl, that didn't care what people thought... and was the life of the party. But, I'm a quiet girl, with a good sense of humor that not many people see...and I love to make people laugh.

4. I took dance (like Rachel), ballet, tap and jazz all growing up... until I graduated. I miss it tremendously, but I am NOT graceful at all. Not only am I not graceful... there is NOT an athletic bone in my body. I'm "re-learning" to ride a bicycle at the age of 31. I'm a bit wobbly like a 6 year old just learning to ride for the first time. And I'm terrified of falling.

5. I love to bake. I don't care much to eat the sweets, just to bake them. I'd love to take pastry classes or cake decorating classes... It would be so fun to be a pastry chef, I think.

6. I HATE scary movies. I have an overactive imagination and have to be very careful what I watch or read before bed.

7. I'm a tv junkie. I love to watch reruns of those cheesey shows we all love like Gilmore Girls, Beverly Hills 90210 (Yes, I LOVE Dylan), Dawson's Creek, etc...

There's probably more interesting things about me, but that's what I came up with... hope you enjoyed it. :) Now, I'm supposed to tag 7 people to do the same thing. If you see your name below, then "Tag! You're it!"
