Team-In-Training

This past week I went to an information meeting about Team-In-Training, which is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's sports training program. TNT gives you the opportunity to train with great coaches, go to amazing destinations to run, cycle or hike, as well as doing it all for a great cause. I don't know anyone with leukemia or lymphoma but I felt this was a great opportunity to help others. I will definitely write more about this as I continue on this journey.

Runner's World

I've been running for a few months or so and have seen and felt myself getting better, running longer and further. The lady that leads the Nike Run Club runners told me about this site, its very informative and useful for all level of runners. I've been starting to do the beginners program! I'll keep you posted on how I'm doing!

Juliette Frette

A writer, an artist, a feminitst, a Playmate...Juliette became one of my favorite Playmates of 2008 after she wrote her own text for her Playmate pictorial. She is a Women's Issues Examiner for examiner.com. Check out her article about the Carlie Christine issue (my previous post) Smart and sexy, what is better than that?

WrestleMania 25

My friends and I had a little WM25 party last Sunday night. It was a fun night of eating, drinking and watching the yearly extravaganza. It was a pretty good show, it could have been better, IMO, considering it was the 25th anniversary. But it was a solid show that was headlined by the classic battle between The Undertaker and the HeartBreak Kid Shawn Michaels. That was such an amazing match, so much so that it overshadowed the matches that followed it. I thought that the HHH/Randy Orton had a chance to match it, however, it didn't. Although it was very good. Another highlight of the show was the Jeff Hardy/Matt Hardy Xtreme Rules match! It definitely was a great night!

Kelly Paper My new favorite store, the Disneyland of paper! A warehouse full of reams of paper, being a graphic designer, I was very excited! They'll see lots more of me!

My new DVR - since my VCR has gone caput, I am loving my new toy! I have no idea how I could have lived without it! I've been taping (oops, I mean, DVR'ing) left and right, all over the place.

Jamie Foxx Intuition The new album from the Grammy-nominated, Oscar-winning actor/singer/Mr. Everything is solid. As usual, its a mix of club bangers and smooth R&B. There's his solid singles like 'Just Like Me' featuring T.I., 'Blame It' featuring T-Pain, as well as the 'Ms. Independent' remix, 'She Got Her Own' featuring Ne-yo and Fabolous. Add that to my new favorites, 'Number One' with Lil Wayne and 'Digital Girl'. My new favorite album, I've been rockin' it in my car all week.

Favorites of the Week

•Jazmine Sullivan Fearless, I really love Jazmine's sounds, I say sounds because each song has a different style to it, from the Jamaican-Lauren-Hill-style of her hit, "Need You Bad", to the up-tempo swing style of "Switch". Each one sounds great!

•The Host I saw this movie on G4 last weekend and loved it! If you love those Japanese monster movies, you'll love this, think Godzilla with water! Classic!

•Current TV When there's nothing on TV, this is a great channel to put on to see different, great stories. Current TV is viewer-friendly channel that has podcasts about different things, world affairs to fun things around town.
