I'm back... FINALLY. And I FINALLY plugged in My Wii... I love it!! So far I've played Wii Fit, I'm trying to unlock a lot more yoga poses, but it takes a while. I'm impatient... I know.

I started training yesterday for My half marathon I'm running in Mid October. I know.. I should have started training earlier, but I am still confident I can do it. I did 3 miles yesterday (which is what I usually run) and then today I'm going to do 4. I'm going to make My own training schedule... alternating between 3-8 miles... but overall working My way up. I've done My research and I think *better yet.. KNOW* that I can it Myself... and with the limited time I just need to think "MIND OVER MATTER." I CAN DO IT!!!!! My goal is to do a marathon in 2009... I was thinking the NYC Marathon... actually slave craigy suggested it. I think it would be pretty cool to do the NYC Marathon, and atleast it gives Me plenty of time to prep for it. But then again, I want to do the Chicago Marathon.. who knows - maybe both?

Alright.. I'm going to start My day out by doing some Wii Fit yoga and then head downstairs to work on some running (shooting for 4-5 miles today)... we'll see how long I can go. My main problem is getting bored... so usually if I have a new playlist I can go for longer. But I'm running out of songs!!!!!!! Any suggestions for good running songs? I'm open to suggestions... motivating songs are the best. A good song I really love running to is Eminem's Til I Collapse.

What is with the Detroit Mayor's attitude?? What an idiot.. that's all I can say.

Oh... the election. I've been trying to pay attention to the National Conventions. I watched some of the DNC and RNC, and they both seem VERY convincing - as always. I'd like to consider Myself more of a "libertarian" than anything else, but since American only has TWO parties (who are we kidding.. either Dem or Rep), I'm not sure WHO I am voting for. Initially I was 100% pro Obama, and I still lean towards him. But then again, I don't know much about either of the candidates. What I'd really like is some sort of "blind" questionaire... maybe something detailing each of the candidates views and then I could go through and figure out which one I most agree with. Not knowing WHICH candidate's view I am agreeing with will help for it to be a completely fair way of Me deciding who I should vote for. Does that even make sense?? I have so many thoughts going on in My head right now it's tough to get them all out and have them make sense.

Quick update on My slaves... I received a random AWESOME shirt from Revolve clothing from a mystery slave. When I opened the package I couldn't remember if I had purchased it Myself.. or if maybe it was a random gift?? Then a couple days later I get an email asking if I received the shirt, so it was in fact a gift from an admirer.

Chunker has been such a good little local gift card slave!! He even got Me some coffee and Ritter Sport chocolate (YUMMMMMMMM) along with refilling My starbucks gift card and some more Whole Foods and Treasure Island gift cards. It's nice having someone foot the bill for My coffee and organic food addiction :) LOVE IT!! chunker was even lucky enough to talk to Me on the phone TWICE!! Once on My way to Indiana last Friday and then again yesterday on My way back. Now I just need a hands free device for My phone. hint, hint :) I'll be sure to add one to My amazon wishlist.

My czech slave sent Me a package with some yummy Czech chocolate and some souvenirs for the family. I'll just pretend like I got them when I was there :) They'll be happy to know I thought of it... lol.

Poker slave... you're needed again... be sure to transfer Me $100 to My pokerstars account so I can play a little poker later. I've been getting back into it (what else is new?) It's great when you're on a roll!! Let's just hope I don't lose My money again this time. I'm going to make a bet that My pokerslave transfers Me $100 within 2 hours after this post... mark My words.

Okay.. time to do some Wii.... later!
