Ok, So It's On Like Donkey Kong!
So, looks like we may have a team to compete against in next year's Exepdition: Everest Challenge.....provided dates and stuff work out....
Bring it, ladies....(In the meantime, listen to their podcast - it's fun and stuff!)
Ok, So You're....KIDDING, Right?
Please tell me this isn't real. Ah, who am I kidding? They'll change it back in 6 months...after this "bold new direction," something that every single WW writer over the past 10+ years has said they'll do, and most have failed, reverts back to the old standard we all love.How about just telling GOOD stories about Wonder Woman beating up bad guys instead of destroying Paradise Island....AGAIN!

Disney unveils Golden Oak luxury homes, offering a chance to live in the Walt Disney World resort

Today Disney has revealed plans for Golden Oak, a new luxury residential resort community allowing families to actually purchase a home at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Fla.
Located southeast of the Magic Kingdom and north of Epcot (marked by an icon on the map below), the exclusive Golden Oak community will offer a single family custom homes priced between $1.5 and $8 million. Less than 30 home sites will be available for sale this year, so space is quite limited. The home designs have been created by Walt Disney Imagineers, making them dream homes for any Disney fan. The gated community will feature intimate neighborhoods and amenities within the entire 980-acre footprint.

Ok, So WOW!
This was made for about $27,000.00. Very well done fan film. And I think that we see a little Black Canary in there (or the beginnings of a Black Canary). Best watched in full screen because of the small size of the window.

Ok, So Because THIS Isn't Disturbing Or Anything.....
And why? Because it could actually happen....
Only...um, not like this...
Only...um, not like this...
Ok, So I Just Finished Last Night's So You Think You Can Dance....
(I am aware she's not on the show. Gotta admit though, it's a funny picture.)
Underwhelmed. Maybe it's because I didn't watch the audition shows, so I don't have the emotional attachment to the dancers like I usually do at the beginning of the season, but I just kinda don't think many of them are really all that good. Taffy had told me she thought the judges were mean last night, but I didn't think so at all. I thought they, for the most part, gave constructive criticisms that the dancers can take back and use for future shows.
And while he's cute, Robert (the guy who did the Argentinean Tango) appears to be a serious douche bag. And Kent...well, I think we could confuse Kent by handing him a Ziplock bag and asking him to figure out how it works.
I think it will be Billy Bell or the Asian ballet dancer, even though his dance was stupid.
(Man, I am GRUMPY tonight...)
Ok, So Can Someone Please Explain To Me....
The appeal of the Scissor Sisters? I don't get it. Are they supposed to be tongue in cheek? Is it because the lead singer has a nice body and runs around in his underwear all the time? I really don't get it. And I'm being serious. If you're a fan, what is it that you like about them, and please direct me to some of their good stuff. Because, as I said...
Ok so...How long before Taylor has one of these?
iCarta iPOD Toilet Paper Holder
The iCarta features four (two tweeters for highs and two woofers for lows) integrated, high-performance and moisture-free speakers that deliver exceptional clarity and high quality sound. Requiring only AC power to fill your bathroom with your favorite tunes, this innovative system is the perfect accompaniment to cleaning, shaving, or putting on make-up. Easy to mount on the wall or take down if you need to move it to another bathroom, the iCarta conveniently includes an integrated bath tissue holder that accepts standard toilet paper rolls and can be effortlessly folded as a stereo dock.
Easy Operation and Compact Design
The iCarta has a simple, straightforward design that complements any bathroom decor without overwhelming the space. Sleek and compact, it takes up little more room than a standard toilet paper holder, and yet still has the capacity to transform your bathroom. Integrated into the toilet paper holder is a dock that accepts all dockable iPods. For added convenience, this system charges your iPod while it's playing music. And thanks to a waterproof finish that easily wipes clean, the iCarta also resists damage caused by drips or splashes.
Hours of Enjoyment
Make your next bubble bath a truly relaxing experience accompanied by your favorite quiet songs. Or energize yourself before going out by playing air guitar in the bathroom mirror. Or simply make cleaning the bathroom a time to enjoy the new songs you've just downloaded. Thanks to the iCarta, the bathroom isn't simply a bathroom anymore--it's a place to unwind and have fun while listening to the music you love.

Ok, So Two Balls And A Bat...The Pitcher Was Ahead.....
This song has played on my iPod every night while I've been working out for about a week now. It's 90's personified, it's horrible...and I love it.
Ok, So My New T-Shirt
I love the color combination - and the Dri-fit technology sucks the sweat right off of you!I know, pretty mental picture. Deal :)
Yellow and green.....hmmmm......
Ok so...If I run another race...Will I look like this???
Hillary Swank, while I am certain her penis is bigger than mine...looks like a FUCKING KNOCKOUT in this pic...

Ok, So Have A Listen, Won't You?
This Saturday, June 26th from 9pm to 11pm on Pride48.com as Taffy and Taylor guest star on Foul Monkeys! That's right, kids. We're going live, without a net! God help us...or is that God help you? Only way to find out is to listen!Thank you to Ricky and Julian for the invite and their hospitality. I'll bring cupcakes, boys. Any suggestions?
Ok, So For Those Who May Care...And You Know Who You Ams....
4.8 miles is 7.68k. And 8.3 miles is 13.36k.(Oh, and I want legs like this guy. Muscular calves kinda get me hot.)
Ok, So One More Down.....
This afternoon was a lovely day with Babaloo, catching up on TV, cleaning the house together and at one point, laying on the couch together reading...then maybe napping, then reading again. I was able to finish, after holding onto it forever, When You Are Engulfed In Flames by my all time favorite author, David Sedaris. How'd I like it?I loved it.
There were some really great stories in this one, and even with the more average stories, I laughed out loud at least once. I found the stories just long enough that you could knock one out in about 10 minutes if you were quick about it, but, like most of Sedaris' pieces, you kinda wanted to savor them. My only "complaint" would be about the last story, The Smoking Section. It took up the last 70+ pages of the book, and when you're used to running sprints and suddenly you have a marathon in front of you, it can be a little exhausting. I had to put the book down a couple of times while reading it, partially because of the length, but also it appeared to be the most convoluted of the stories.
So, what's next on the list of books that I have to read before I'm allowed to buy anymore? Given my newfound interest in all things health, I'm reading Winning By Losing by Jillian Michaels. I used to be a big Biggest Loser fan, and got this book back when I had a little more respect for her and the show (the hawking of her diet pills is kinda a turn off for me). Anyway, I figure I can knock this book out in a couple of days and then start the next book. I'm hoping to learn something from this book and anything I find interesting, I'll let you know!Ok, So Taffy Laughs At Me When I Call Them Sneakers....
Apparently, Outside Magazine likes my sneaks - called them Gear Of The Year!

Ok, So While I Can Appreciate The Creepiness of Posting A Video Of Someone Else's Kid
I just wanted to say that I may have inadvertently been dancing a little to this song while on the elliptical tonight! (40 minutes, 562 calories)
(It's the only video of this song online, by the way. Still, cute kid.)

Ok, So Adventure In Running Shoes
So, after doing some research, I decided that should I continue my running adventure (or, in this case really begin running vs. walking with purpose.) I should get a good pair of running shoes. If I have one complaint about my 5k it would be I got myself a nice set of shin splints for a few days following, and from what I've read, good supportive shoes will help alleviate that in the future. So, info in hand, I took at ride today with Babaloo to International Plaza and went to Fit2Go, a running shoe/accessory store. I know that they will test you for what shoes will best work for you by putting you on a treadmill and assessing your needs.
So, we walked into the store and "Keanu" with his 2% BMI and "I could give a shit about your fat ass" attitude listened to me as I said that I wanted to buy a pair of running shoes because I just completed my first 5k and wanted to get healthy and blah blah blah. Methinks this guy only heard the word "buy." He said he would give me a test for my arch support then I would run on a treadmill ("But don't worry - only for like 30 seconds or so." Um, ok.) and he would videotape my feet and my gait so that we could figure out what shoes are best for me. So, after discovering I overpronate (my feet roll inwards), he has me get on the treadmill where I jog for about 65 seconds or so (which, I think actually surprised him.) He has me try on a couple of different shoes and walk around in them. I can't help but notice that while all the other sales people are talkative and cheery to the customers and their families, this guy is ignoring Babaloo while I am on the other side of the store. This angers me. At the very least try and sell my boyfriend a pair of sneakers while you're waiting for me!
So, after three different pair, I decide that I like the Brooks Sneakers with a special insert support that prevents overpronation. Total cost for these two items. $170.00. When I say that was a little more than I was planning on spending, Keanu goes instantly into "Well, it's really an ivestment for your health. You don't want to injure yourself, do you?"
Really, Neo? Really? Scare tactics from a 17 year old? I think not. I tell him I agree with him that it is important and that they feel great, but that I want to figure out my money and if I coul-
That's about as far as I got as he pretty much said, "Ok, well, let me know if I can help you anymore," and walked away. So, the B and I took a drive down to Ellenton Outlet Shops (Where Taffy and I filmed our Midnight Madness video) and I took a gander at the stuff that the Nike Store had to offer. Now, I know from playing around on the website which shoes I liked there, and I had a KINDA good idea as to which ones might work for me. I wandered around and was looking at the shoes when Nick, a sales associate wandered up to me and asked how I was doing, and if he could help me find anything. I go through the same story, and he asks all sorts of questions about what my goals are and when I tell him that I was just at Fit2Go and that I overpronate, he said that he knows just the right shoes, and shows me a pair that I had seen on the website. Also, it's important to note that I was looking at a pair that were more expensive when he came up to me, but he told me they wouldn't work for what I needed, and directed me to the Nike+ Lunarglides.
These things fit like a glove...for my, uh, feet. They are really comfortable, and he talked about how, because of the way they are made, I shouldn't need the insert for overpronation. He showed me a few other comparably priced shoes, but I said that these were the ones that I wanted.Another associate, Ray, came over to see what was going on and asked Nick if everything was ok. When I said everything was fine and that Nick was helping me, Ray, appeared pleased. It seems I may have helped Nick with his first sale. These two guys talked with me about a running club that the Nike Store has a few times a month, and talked with me about trying to come down and run with everyone (Maybe later.). They also thanked me repeatedly for my business and could not have been nicer. I was so impressed that I bought a couple of t-shirts and a pair of Neon Yellow shoelaces to go with my new shoes. Total for ALL these items? $100.77 (this includes a 10 percent discount given to me by the cashier when I commended Nick and Ray for their assistence, and when Ray came up to the cashier and told him that I was starting to do 5ks) So, thanks to the guys at the Ellenton Nike Store for their hard work and dedication to helping a fat ass get in shape!

Ok, So Dirty Monkey Boy Of The Week
I am a little behind on SYTYCD, but I was pleasantly surprised to see Pasha as one of the All Stars this season. I've always thought he was kinda cute in a "I smell like beef vegetable soup" sorta way.
Anywho, this was the only dance from the "Meet The Contestants" episode that I was actually interested in. And not just because he takes his shirt off. The move he does with Anya around his arm in the first half is CRAZY!

Ok, So I Think I Have The Bug
Re: Expedition Everest Challenge.So, that happened.
Now what?
While I've heard the phrase "runner's high" before, I was surprised to find myself actually kinda depressed on Sunday, and particularly Monday after the video of the race had been completed. Here I was, working at this goal for 2-3 months, picturing myself at that race surrounded by people running and walking, and now that the goal had been obtained, I didn't have a set goal to work towards. I found myself peering around the Disney Endurance website and imagining myself competing in future races, like the Wine and Dine Half Marathon and Mickey's Family Halloween 5k, both in October. Only I see myself being able to work harder, faster, more efficiently.
I feel that the Expedition Everest Challenge was a great experience for me, and I hope it was for Taffy as well. I can see where my hard work paid off. I can also see where I have miles to go before I can call myself a runner of any kind. While I saw my endurance and speed improve over the 2.5 months I trained, strength is where I need to work the hardest. It makes sense when you think about it. The strain on my body of lifting this rather sizable human being off the ground in rapid fashion is going to take its toll pretty quickly. My hope is that as the weight comes off, the strength and running ability increases. Makes sense, no?
Expedition: Everest was a baseline for me. I saw what I can do, I know I can do better, and I plan on formulating a strategy to improve. Weight loss, continued cardio and the inclusion of weight training (particularly in my legs) should help me in my endeavor. I also would like to invest in a pair of quality running shoes. I currently wear cross trainers (I have for years), but from what I'm seeing online, I should probably get a pair of sneaks that are made specifically for running and will give me that extra support I need.
Now, never fear listeners and readers of this blog. It's not going to become a running blog, and I don't plan on turning into Julia Sugarbaker when she took up running (I tried to find video online, but all you good homosexuals out there know exactly what episode of the show I'm talking about.) However, I truly enjoyed working towards my goal last time, and am looking forward to beginning a new goal very shortly. So watch this space! :)

Ok so...Taylor the Latte Boy: Friend to women kind...and their prostate
"Do women have prostates?" Come to find out...WE DO!!!
Gee, women have ... a prostate?
Seattle Sun Times
Due to overwhelming interest, we're going to return to the G spot — a region of female anatomy associated with orgasm and occasionally ejaculation.
After my last column on the G spot ran last month, quite a few men wrote in or called. Several said they were older than 60 and they sounded as if they'd been with enough women to have put together statistically significant scientific studies on female sexual response. These guys for the most part wanted to express wonder at the great diversity nature bestows on the female body.
Those who reported they'd witnessed an ejaculatory event may have rubbed up against a woman's prostate. That's not a typo. In 2002, what was once an obscure female anatomical feature known as the paraurethral glands, or Skene's glands, was officially renamed the prostate by the Federative International Committee on Anatomical Terminology.
To understand why women would have prostate glands, it helps to go back to our embryonic beginnings, when everything was taking shape. Popular wisdom says we all start life as female embryos, but scientists say we really begin as blended male-female beings.
"You actually have the plumbing for both genders in the early embryos," says University of Pennsylvania developmental biologist Patricia Labosky. At eight weeks, males and females both have a proto penis and a proto prostate.
After that point, depending on whether your chromosomes say you're male or female, some parts grow and develop and others degenerate. A few develop in different ways in both sexes: In girls, what would become the penis instead grows into its sister organ, the clitoris.
And what would become the male prostate becomes the female prostate. Just as the male prostate produces the fluid that carries sperm to their various destinations, the female version sometimes creates an ejaculation of fluid if rubbed the right way — through the G spot.
Men and women really aren't such different creatures. We really are just flip sides of the same coin.

Ok so...Brady Bunch and my old haunt!
I worked at "Kings Island" from 1985-1988...I had a season pass every year from the time I was old enough to ride anything, Tank and I went here on one of our first official dates back in 1983...and my grandmother possesses a taped recording of a two year old Taffy asking to go to "Kee I"...Needless to say, I love this place!
Some of the guys I worked with worked there during this taping.
This became a discussion with Taylor and I today...so I found this (courtesy of VH1 Pop up video)

Ok, So Eek! A Bear! (or two)
As discussed on episode 149, Taylor, Taffy and Babaloo went to Celebration and Downtown Disney instead of the G'Days with the other podcasters...Next year, boys, we promise. Anywho, here are a couple of pictures from our day.
Every day of my life....
Me and the girls at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. Clearly, I need to get my hair did..
Babaloo and Taffy at the Cafe in Celebration. They took care of me the night before when I was sick. My heroes.
Waiting for my French Toast at the Cafe in downtown Celebration. If it matters to anyone, I found all the words.
