Saturday Photo Shoot (with a bootleg camera)

I was feeling cute today. So I took some pictures. Bad pictures, but still pictures. I only have a camera phone to work with, so you get what you get. And as you can see, I bought another running dress. Actually two more. There was a sale going on, so I had to get them, especially with the hooked up discount from Nettie. Thanks, girl. Is it me, or does my foot look really big in the second photo. I know I have big feet (size 9) but for some reason they look bigger than everything on my body. I woke up before my alarm to Tom & Jerry (I love them). But I didn't get out of the house any sooner, mostly because of this morning's photo shoot. It was a quarter to 8 and it was starting to rain. Nothing too bad. I figured I'd stick with it and beat the gnats, instead of waiting to run afterward. It was actually quite refreshing especially knowing that I was covered in water and not my own sweat. But I'm sure by the end of the run it was all sweat. Actually, I'm sure it was. Before the run, I weighed in at 139.2. After, I was 138.2. My dress was pretty soaked. It felt heavy when I took it off. Oh, I have some post run pictures. Anyone want to guess how many sets of tennis it looks like I played? Check it out. My dress is soaked. Side Note: Can I just say that I'm still trying to get my mind around being under 140 on a given day. For a good portion of my life up until I started running a year ago, my weight range was 150-156. All in all, it was a good run. I took it easy, well what seemed easy for me. My pace these days is still blowing my mind. My first 5miler was a lot slower. And I was surprised how consistent miles 2-4 were. But in the last mile, I just wanted it to be over with already. Anyway, by the end of the run, the rain was over. Luckily, the gnats didn't make an appearance. All the geese or ducks or whatever these birds are were out and about. I've heard they can be kind of aggressive (they chased a friend of mine), but they were just out doing their thing. I'm just glad they weren't chasing me for any reason. They were everywhere. So, that's my day so far. And on that note, I'm out (possibly to get some falafel). Have a great weekend. Music: Beautiful Tomorrow by Blue Six I was just in the mood for some laid back house music.
