Dust Factory

Hey everyone! How weird is it that I'm watching Elf on USA-HD, in July??? Maybe the true weirdness is that it's even playing on TV right now? I get so off with my holidays - at work I've been working on Valentines 2009 and also Mother's Day 2009, so I'm already waaay past Christmas this year. So really, watching a Christmas movie suits me. And it's SO INSANELY HOT outside that at least it helps me forget about that!

With it being 5billion degrees I haven't ventured outside for a lunch run in ages. I ran last Thursday, walked on the treadmill Friday (my shins were bothering me), did the elliptical yesterday and then ran today. I really need to get some new Mizunos because I can feel how worn out they are in my shins but I just haven't had time to get down to the running store I prefer. I've got a 5K coming up in a few weeks, and I know it won't be anywhere near a PR, it's just a race I'd like to do.

So now Brent has reclaimed the remote and has it on The Office reruns - which is playing a Christmas episode. Weird. It must be Christmas in July on cable or something.

The new stairwell is coming along well. Brent's got the drywall hung, mudded and dusted - so our entire house is covered in dust. When all these renovations are done I'd love to just move out and hose down this house from all the dust from all the drywall we've done. I'm pretty sure if you shook Pippin you'd get a pile of dust. Brent also put the first coat of primer on the stairwell drywall, so maybe by this time next week the living room side will be all painted.

So has everyone heard about Dean's movie coming out next week??? Sounds like fun! I wish one of the locations were closer to me, but I'll guess we'll be heading out to the 'burbs for a movie night! Sadly the last movie we saw in the theater was the Chicago marathon movie earlier this year!!

Have a great week!
