Kevin and Mac have signed us up for the Tough Mudder outside of Vegas. This is nuts. I just emailed the owner of crossfitnola to try and get trained. I went on the website and I need to up my game. No fooling around. I am in. Key West starting to ramp up with spring break. Austin Has South by Southwest! Bam Austin is rocking!

Nothing more satisfying then hearing your son say " this was the best trip ever." Ah I have done my job. The body is a machine and as a machine it finally breaks down. Last night I couldn't fall asleep until 4 am. I woke up at 1:30 am. In my world sleeping like that is unheard of. Hopefully I will be on point tomorrow for the New Orleans anniversary party. All that rice in Japan and I am coming...

The food has been excellent. The people so warm and kind. In our hotel room the toilet seats were warm. I even had Starbucks close by. But today I was horrified when I entered the bathroom at Shiadome station. The toilet was directly on the floor. I had heard of this but today was my first encounter with the low toilet. Do you know how low you have to squat not to splatter pee? Answer: pretty darn low. Headed home....

On the 2nd leg of our trip. Our 3rd leg being the longest from Los Angeles to Tokyo. Memphis with a stellar night ! Hot damn. Key West coming in 3rd. Hoping Key West starts rolling with spring break starting. Just received an email from Jackson's dad. No , " hope Jackson has a good time." No " be careful with Jackson." Instead His email to me read as follows " Make sure Jackson does two sets of push ups...

After getting my son prepared for his field trip yesterday I made the mistake of asking my crazy friend to meet me for a wine in celebration of the Vegas lease. What a mistake . 3 bottles of wine followed by some green shit in shot glasses. Always seems like a good idea when you are drinking. And of course the " it's only wine" excuse doesn't hold true when you are on your 2nd and 3rd bottle. Going to...

The airlines don't like it when you decide to exit the plane before take off. At the final hour Coyote Ugly Vegas got a 12 month extension on the lease. I was on the plane headed to Vegas to have a drink with the staff on its last night when the call I had been waiting for came in!! I quickly exited the plane , knowing that the CU Vegas staff is intact and my new priority was my son's...

Browsing the news on my computer. Low and behold, in Israel, there is a therapy that involves sex. The therapy is "Sex with a stranger " to help with your emotional issues. Sign me up. I have a boat load of emotional issues. OK put my request in. Male, 6 pack, and definitely mute. Feeling good today. I ran this morning. Ready for the day!

Thank you sweet universe for my pain being minimal to what I was expecting today. I can't walk up or down stairs but it seems to be isolated to just my quads so I am thankful that I am not in the full body pain I was expecting. A few of my coworkers waited about 3 hours post race to invite me to be on the Coyote Ugly Tough Mudder team. " How the hell do I train for that?...

Take it off the bucket list! Half Marathon done. I ran it in 2:29! I can't lie I am pretty proud of myself. At mile 9 my foot started hurting . I packed a bunch of ibuprofen so I would grab a Gatorade at the water stops and would pop a pill and keep on running. Chantel finished shortly after me. We split up around mile 4. It was so crowded it was too hard to stay at the same...

One of my crazy dogs kept me up last night. Urgh. Bars did alright last night. I am frustrated with Key West. They do incredibly during daylight hours but seem to lose steam after midnight. Spring Break is coming so they better bang out some numbers! Today I am going against my life's philosophy of very few carbs. Going to make a huge pot of brown rice pasta and tuna. I figure I can eat it all day long so...
