Shelly and Sue, celebrating Shelly’s birthday.
Ever hear that old saying, “What you do on your birthday is what you’ll be doing the rest of the year” . . . while that may not be a literal application, the idea behind it is good.
So, we’re changing our game plan. Instead of birthday workouts, now we’ll do birthday burpees, like we mentioned yesterday. Chris has a birthday on Wednesday so you know what we’ll be doing after the WOD. (Thank God he’s young.)
To kick things off, I hit my birthday burpees yesterday:

Just a reminder: I am taking this week off to let my body recover from the burpee challenge, among other things. I also don’t want to injure my shoulder any further. I’m not purposely avoiding my birthday workout or anything, so I’m all for a B-day WOD next week when I’m back. See you all then!

Oh, I didn’t read the fine print. I’d be happy to bang out some burpees when I’m back.

I think the blog is dead because it is CYBER MONDAY!!!!! errr… maybe not, but yeah, what is up with that?
November 24th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
The blog is dead because everybody is too busy working! Damn jobs! Why the heck can’t I have a job whereby work requires me to be blogging and making smart-a** comments!
Oh, wait, I do have that job. Never mind.
November 24th, 2008 at 5:37 pm
And thanks, Sue! Tell Shelly to just move near here. Heck, everybody should! I can guarantee your life will be filled with lots of burpees and heavy weights to move!
(Maybe I shouldn’t have said that.)
And happiness and beer! Your life will be filled with happiness, beer, and a kick-ass body! Whoo hoo!

That’s it! I am packing my bags and moving to Watertown. I can live on burpees and beer. Who needs a job when you have Crossfit Watertown!
hey Sue… Can I crash on your couch?
