Proof that kids are smarter than adults.
Me: So, there's a department in the government that's issued a rule that says that Catholic hospitals and universities have to provide services that can kill a baby.
Student 1: What?! That be crazy.
Student 2: Wait, so the government made this rule, and Obama's OK wit' it?
Me: Yeah.
Student 2: He be trippin. That's disappointing.
Student 1: They ain't got no business doing that. That be like someone comin' into yo house, tellin' you how to run yo life.
Student 3: I'm sorry, I just don't get it. So you get pregnant, righ?
Me: You're aski — Yeah, OK. Right.
Student 3: Mmmk. You be pregnant. and ya don't wantcha baby, right?
Me: Right.
Student 3: THEN WHY AIN'T YOU BE GIVIN' UP THAT BABY FOR ADOPTION CAUSE THERE BE PLENTY OF PEOPLE THAT CAN'T BE HAVING BABIES THAT WOULD TAKE REAL GOOD CARE OF IT! I'm sorry, Mr. Faas, but I just don't understand.
Me: Your argument makes perfect sense.
Student 1: You don't seem angry about this, Mr. Faas. This is making me angry. Can we like, protest or something?
Me: Yes. Go nuts.

rfgr26:
Usually I cringe at commentary about my food choices. Truly, how and what I feed myself is no one’s business but my own. But with this comment, I had to consider the source. It was coming from two friends who know me in a way that not many people do. But beyond just knowing me, they know the…

2. Dogs. I’ve never been attacked on the run, but I…
I love this so much! It is all of the things I love AND hate about running....

I got stronger today
It was 50, but windy, and misty.
I debated not going.
I ran in the wind, and the chill, and the misty rain.
I went half a mile further than I said I would.
I got mentally stronger this afternoon =)

The miles fought me......
So the goal today was to do 4.5 miles…..
Reasonable goal….
Drank too much coffee, maybe?, before I left
Gym was PACKED on a Sunday afternoon (really??????)
If you are walking at a 25 minute/mile pace while holding a full conversation AND texting, get off the treadmills with the working fans and move to the beat up ones….you don’t need the fan…..trust me…..
