Everything Old is New Again
At my fit-throwing insistence, Dawn made my blog pretty, and then I undid it all. I missed Liberty’s “Mom Running” picture being in my header so I had to change it back. But I changed the color and the font! So it’s still kind of fresh and new. That’s something.
You might have missed it, but I chose a different, actually more appropriate, pic for the new blog header. It was a pretty sidewalk type thing with a gas line thing that said “Gas” right on it. Definitely fitting since I hardly ever blog about running and I am full to the brim with all kinds of gas, literal and figurative. (Don’t pretend like you don’t have gas, too. You do and you know it. Do you think you’re better than me? You might be, but you still have gas.)
The Sundays with Stretchy Pants title does have to do with running, though, so Liberty’s drawing goes with the title. My long-run day is Sunday and I always, always put on stretchy pants after a long run because they feel so good on my sore legs. But I started a new training program today! And my long-run day will be Saturday. Which means Saturday will be my stretchy pants day. And you have no idea how it pains me that my blog title won’t actually fit my life anymore. I’m not usually particular about things, but it just feels wrong. Anyway.
Here’s something fun: My pretend friend, Kathi D, has a new meme up that she stole from somebody and I’m stealing it from her. Google your name, preceded by “unfortunately” and see what you get. Fun.
Unfortunately Abby causes quite a stir when she arrives there. “And you know we don’t serve Negroes in here. Have you forgotten your place?
I do love race issues and I would totally cause a stir if somebody, after mistaking me for a black woman, refused to serve me. I would Twitter that shit all over the place and they’d have one hell of a clusterf*ck up in there.
Unfortunately Abby is my real name. Actually, it’s Abigail, but I’m no hair-splitter. It’s unfortunate either way.
Abby’s up against her rival Belinda Fishcake in a talent contest …unfortunately Abby has a voice that can peel paint, and the brace doesn’t help either! True and true. Well, I don’t wear a brace, but I do have a mild case of scoliosis. That Belinda Fishcake was always a bitch.
Unfortunately, Abby had some trouble delivering this litter and three of the six puppies were stillborn. That was a very painful time in my life and I’d rather not talk about it. Actually, the painful part of this one is that it reminds me of the fact that my own aunt had a dog named Abby. It’s a popular dog name.
Unfortunately, Abby missed out on seeing Hi5 because she was so sick. I was faking. I don’t know what hi5 is, but it sounds lame.
Unfortunately Abby is crying in her sleep while I am writing this. I haz a sad.
Unfortunately, Abby Littleton had decided that visibility at those same functions was good for her career. I never took my clothes off at those so-called “functions,” and those pictures on your cell phone are fake!
Unfortunately Abby made a big mistake and said that the picture was inappropriate. Again, fake.
Unfortunately, Abby has inherited my eyes. Thanks Dad.
Abby tells a rather upset Gibbs that Rowens is telling the truth, she didn’t write the emails. Unfortunately, Abby doesn’t know who did. I’m lying; I do know who wrote them, but it was my evil twin and I want to protect her. Even though she’s a bitch.


That explains why I’m tooting for a while after I run (you started it!LOL)…I thought it was the coffee.
BTW, talking about running, I decided to do the couch to 5 podcast thing and today was my first day. It was supposed to be easy but because I’m already jogging I did the 60 second running intervals at a faster speed and umm….almost DIED! I’m sitting here in sweaty stretchy pants deciding if more coffee is worth getting up for.
