Needle and Dicks

Sporting Goods, that is.  I was really surprised to read Nitmos' post today about his return from vacation and the fact that I won the $100 gift card to Dicks.

I would like everyone to know that I am the person that NEVER wins drawings.  EVER.  Until this contest, my grand total for winnings is one (1) Mississippi State Baseball can holder that I won in 1994.  That basically sums it up.  I did win a knife about 6 years ago in a work drawing and only because they had enough stuff so that EVERYONE got something.

I am also taking this as a cosmic hint to get off my ass and do some more running.  I am modifying the FFBS plan, effective tomorrow.  The new FFBS plan is going to try to incorporate a form of STREAKING!  Yep, in order for me to do anything run related, I have to really simplify it.  So if the day ends in "y," I will get my butt up and run.  Now, I will not do anything too stupid, like run when I am hurt or it is pouring rain. 

Am I crazy?  Am i stoopid?  Possibly and yeah.

  1. Congrats on scoring that gift card. I'm jealous, of course, but happy for you, too...Kinda.

    I did the whole streaking thing a couple of years back. We started on New Year's Day and I ran everyday 'til March something. It was crazy that I was able to run through all that craptastic weather, and just when spring was on the horizon I fell off the wagon. I really do think rest days are essential, though. And I'm fairly lazy.

    Good luck with your plan.
    Let us know how you spend your Dick's $$$.

  2. $100 to spend at Dick's! Woo-hoo!

    Know what I'd buy with a hunnert dollars at Dick's?

    A vagina. Because I'm all into irony like that.

    Of course, you can't get a new vagina with $100. So get a used one.

    But insist they give you the Vaginafax Report so you know its history. You DON'T want one that was used for porn!

    I found that out the hard way.

    And yes, I mean exactly what you think by "hard way".
