New Toy

I will have to make this very short. My two girls are fighting over a new toy. Try to guess what the new toy is....

In the meantime, I went out for my run this morning as usual. Number 8! My garmie, Joost, gave me hell of a hard time. As I was running, Joost gave me a bad sign. My watch said "LOW BATTERY". I was like "WTF Joost, don't give me crap here." I take the heat. I didn't realized that I haven't give him the juice he needed. After my run, I had to give Joost a CPR by recharging him. I've felt like a surgeon doing a delicate surgery. It was quite easy just to clamp the recharger on him. I think Joost felt the love when I performed the surgery this morning.

I had to use Earth Google and my calculation today on my run. I ran 5.40 miles. Untimed. Based on calories burned, I have placed it roughly at 550 +/-.

Now, any idea what you have in mind what the girls are fighting over.....


Gotta go.. my girls are wrestling now over it.

Have fun with the wii fit. I think that it's great exercise even though it's a video game.

Marcy said...

You will love it, Ted! Just don't start fighting with the girls over it :P

Wii Fit! Oh man, I hope my kids don't find your blog! (Progman: "Get off Ted's blog, can't you look at porn or something!")

Xenia said...

I expect a product review, Ted.

And I second Marcy--try not to fight too much with your girls over it. :)

LOL at them wrestling over it.

Good work with the CPR ;)

I will up your way today to go to doctor with Ian. Wish it was for a race and not something like this...

So which daughter won? I hope you didn't catch a beat down trying to break it up.

Lily on the Road said...
