Vegas Baby, Yeah.

OK, I admit it, I didn't get any miles checked off my "Run for the Booze" mileage chart over there on the right...but I did kill two GIGANTIC spiders, buy a really cute tiny little pink gym bag in order to facilitate my after school gym visits, and pick up a CD of 80's Hop-Hop to supplement the wonderful suggestions you guys left in my comments. Contents of the CD are as follows:

White Lines -- Grandmaster Flash & Melle Mel
Walk This Way -- Run DMC
Funky Cold Medina -- Tone Loc
The Humpty Dance -- Digital Underground
Bust A Move -- Young MC
It Takes Two -- Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock
U Can't Touch This -- MC Hammer
Parents Just Don't Understand -- DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince
Around The Way Girl -- LL Cool J
Set Adrift On Memory Bliss -- PM Dawn
Tennessee -- Arrested Development
Now That We Found Love -- Heavy D & The Boyz
Good Vibrations -- Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch
Baby Got Back -- Sir Mix-A-Lot
Jump Around -- House of Pain
Hip Hop Hooray -- Naughty by Nature
What's My Name -- Snoop Doggy Dogg
Nuthin' But a "G" Thang -- Dr. Dre

A couple of duds, but overall, very gym worthy and lots of music from my youth that makes me smile. Also, Sir Mix-A-Lot is a denizen of the TVPNM...so it's kind of like supporting my community. I also downloaded several of the songs that were left in the comments that I didn't already have. So overall, I at least have a good music mix on my MP3 player, whether I actually commit to gym time or not. But, I need to do. Mentally I'll feel better, physically I'll feel better, etc...*insert my dad's lecture about physical fitness here*

Crazy week ahead, second interview for fairly fab government job on Tuesday morning (via phone), second interview at firm on Thursday in San Francisco (via whirlwind trip). Hopefully they both go well so I have some choices of what to do and so that I can quit writing cover letters, an activity that I find truly detestable.

If anyone else wants to join the "Run/Walk/Bike/Ellipitcal Your Way to The Fab City of Your Choice" brigade, stick a counter up on your blog and we'll all do it together...if you want to go to Vegas, you can meet me and Steve there (and M., who is going to do it and send me her numbers so I can keep track of her on the blog as well). C'mon, it'll be fun.
