How to get rich quick

by SkinnyRunner on November 19, 2011

WORKOUT – Ran in Dana Point 10.3 miles/1:21    some hills, no music

This morning Jabe had a work meeting over in Dana Point.  on a Saturday.  who does that?!  Linda Evangelista and I don’t even wake up for less than $10,000 a day…. which explains why I spend most of my weekends in bed.

Anyways, so I went with him and ran while he worked.  a winning combo.

I ran by the beach for awhile and then ran some hilly trails too.  I don’t drive over to DP to run that often so it was a nice change of scenery.  If you’re bored with your running, try running somewhere new or a slightly different route.  or even the same route backwards.

Follow my 140 characters of dumb and you’ll know that A) I’m so not funny and B) My husband was in Vegas for work all week and traded in our pension for Pai Gow.  super, just super.

Regardless, Marni and I were so excited to see him yesterday we both peed on the driveway when he drove up.  And then we had a raging slumber party…

For some reason, Jaymo decided we should sleep in the guest bedroom?!  I guess he thought the sheets on our bed were clean so he didn’t want to dirty them.  what a strange, strange little man.

Before we did the bed swap, I spent yesterday in Calabasas (outside LA) doing some volunteer work with my good friend Reese who works for Ameriprise. 

She’s our CFP and yes, she wholeheartedly supports us putting our retirement funds into Texas Hold ‘Em.  It’s really working out great for us… if we wanted to rub two nickels together, we’d have to borrow one.

At least I got a sweet free shirt out of the deal.

You were probably unaware, but I didn’t make the final cut for the Sexiest Man Alive.  It’s ok because I can’t wait to see the winner of the Sexiest Man Not Alive.

What do you think of the choice?  Are you protesting like some people are?  I really don’t think Bradley Cooper’s that attractive in this picture.

Bradley Cooper is NOT attractive. Not that attractive, anyways. What’s up with his nose? I mean, really?And I’ll do anything for a free t-shirt. Like sign up for a marathon. Because who wouldn’t want to run 26.2 miles for a tee shirt?

My sis lives off Violent Lantern…love that path, especially across PCH where it gets hillier. Well I actually hate the hills but it’s such a pretty area to run.

Happy Saturday :)

It’s all about Ryan Gosling. And I agree- definitely not a good picture of him. There’s something a little ’80s about it…

Yes, love running on little short trips like that…but it does make for a stinky car ride home.

Bradley who? What? I’m confused.

Heather@Just a Colorado Gal November 19, 2011 at 11:08 am

I love Bradley…but I love Ryan Gosling more. Besides, this was totally the year of Ryan. He was robbed! :)

I think Bradley Cooper is attractive, but he wouldn’t be my top choice. Do you know who Tim Tebow is? He’s my secret 2nd husband. ;)

ummmmm sorry, but tebow is mine!

I don’t care who my husband is, I just want someone to listen to me bitch all day and snuggle with me at the end. How much do those cost?

I had no idea who he was, but he is pretty cute ;)

I mean, there will be another sexiest man alive next year, which is why I dont get the protesters.. I think Coops (we’re on nickname basis) is hot, but that’s just my opinion.

Anyways, since you live near a beach, do you ever run on the beach? Farthest run on the beach?

SkinnyRunner November 19, 2011 at 3:22 pm

i never run on the actual beach. sand in my shoes is like sand up my hiney – you think it wont be that bad until it chafes the crap outta ya.

Laura November 19, 2011 at 2:47 pm

Yes yes yes. It had to be this man. I would even love to wake up all messed up in Bangkok with him.

There is no way in H-E-Double Hockey Sticks that Bradley Cooper is the sexiest man alive! I don’t even think he’s cute. Ryan Gosling was DEFINITELY robbed! He is *the perfect man* {to me anyways} & is hands down the sexiest man alive. Whoever chose Bradley Cooper was most definitely high. :-P

Unrelated to the post content… but, I just recently discovered your blog and I LOVE it. I’m trying to get back into running and training for my first half marathon and you give me lots of good vibes (and, honestly, intimidation) with your running stories. Plus you’re effing hilarious. Thanks for doing what you do!

I think Bradley Cooper is definitely not a bad one to look at but A. that picture is NOT his best and B. there are definitely better men out there.

Jess @ Blonde Ponytail November 19, 2011 at 5:03 pm

Bahahaha! Peed on the driveway.

I heart Bradley but Gosling and RR are pretty studly, however, my most recent obsession is Dolvett the Biggest Loser’s newest trainer….and obsession might be putting it mildly! ;)

Kristen November 19, 2011 at 6:47 pm

I think the choice but a good one but what about Ryan Gosling or Michael Buble?!!?

Chelsea November 20, 2011 at 6:17 am

What an ugly run!!!! ;) Bradley is not doing it for me….however… Ryan Gosling in Crazy Stupid Love? Yeahhhh…. speaking of ugly. And I’m with ya on the Tebow. Here in Colorado …everyone is “Tebowing.”

Ha, that’s too funny. I wrote a post about this yesterday, I think Bradley Coopers a great pick. I originally wanted Ryan Gosling so I’ll just hope he gets it next year. They both have fantastic abs.

Bradley Cooper is cute, but Ryan Gosling is the sexiest man alive, hands down. People mag got it wrong!

Reply

Holly November 20, 2011 at 2:28 pm

I am fine with their pick.

Is it wrong to have a sexiest man not alive? Because I’ve actually thought of this… like old movie stars. Not sure if that is disturbing or not!!
