This picture should give you some indication as to how I am feeling tonight.  Yes, I used a straw to suck out the last bit of pepto in the bottle, I was desperate, people, desperate.

I did not take this picture either, Brian went to throw something away and found the evidence of his desperate wife staring up at him.  He said "did you use a straw with the pepto?"  And I was all like "who?  wah?  me?  no!!  Of course, not!  That would be crazy and desperate!"  And he was all like, "yeah but there’s a bottle of pepto with a straw in it in the garbage."

To which I replied.

"oh yeah.  that was me."  So, then he took a picture.  "For the blog," he says.  It’s a family business this blogging is.  (and friends, I know I should have recycled the bottle, I know, but that is how out of sorts I am feeling, please forgive.)

On to other non-tummy ache stories, if you don’t mind.  Let’s see…did you hear me screaming on Friday?  You did?  It’s because we came through with t-shirt sponsors for the 5K.  Yes, we did.  And a water donation, yep, you heard me. And then the Chicago White Sox (which is not my favorite Chicago team, by ANY means) sent me an autographed picture to be raffled off at my event, which makes them by fave Chicago team!  (that is totally not true, I’m a Cubs fan.  Even if they ignore me when I ask for free crap for my event.)  Then, Dick’s Sporting Goods sent me a packet of free stuff…all this on Friday and then there was more, soooo much more, but I do not want to bore you.  Let’s just say we are under way!  And if you live near Northern Indiana, Northeast Illinois and Southwest Michigan you and your family had BEST be at this event.  Got that?  I’ll be watching you.

Man, I can be bossy.

On to other news that does not have to do with my 5K.

We went to the county fair last week.  Racecar finally faced his fears and went on a ride, which is a big deal because he will not go anywhere near anything that you can ride on or that moves or that makes any noise, he’s an adventurous one, that Racecar is.  And suddenly, he said "I WANT TO RIDE ON THE BOAT."  I was all over it.  You can see why.

So, that about wraps up this edition of what my little family has been up to!  I did have to syringe a pea out of Racecar’s nose yesterday, that was fun.  And Ariel gave birth to a cabbage patch kid today, it was all very exciting.

I need more pepto.
