Not like the burger chain, although I really wouldn’t know. I’ve never eaten there, but I hear good things!
Anyway, I don’t have a ton of time today because it is one of those days. My poor mama has a simple surgery today, so I’ve got to get moving and head over to my parents’ house so we can take her down to the hospital. Nothing crazy, so don’t worry–she is just getting a bunion removed from her foot. She had one removed years ago, but since this is a problem I am also going to face in the next 1-2 years with my right foot, I’m very curious about this entire procedure. Yuck.
Damn genetics. Damn ballet shoes.

In other news, if you haven’t turned on the weather today, you should. And if you do, I’m pretty positive you’re going to see my happy little state smack in the middle of the forecast. Apparently there is some blizzard supposedly rolling in tonight that can potentially bring the Denver-metro area a half a foot of snow.
What kills me? People are acting like this is something new. It’s Denver, people. It snows here, and it happens pretty often. As a native, I am always amazed at how worked up people get over the snow! You think they’d be used to it by now. Sigh. Oh well. I have plans to come back and enjoy these delicious treats that I made yesterday:

Last thing– have any of y’all tried rowing before? As in the rowing machines at the gym? Cindy and I went last night with the original plan of going to spin class. Unfortunately, she got held up at work and we missed class, so we had to get creative in terms of cardio. Instead, we created this Crossfit-style cardo workout that alternated 4.5 minutes of spinning with 1000 meters of rowing. We did this for three sets, and it took me just under 30 minutes.

In case you are confused, this is not me. I don’t look like that and my 24Hour most definitely does not have fancy brick walls.
The reason I ask is because that rowing machine worked me! My back and shoulders are definitely feeling it today, but I am pleasantly happy about this. Very rarely do I do any cardio that make my upper body sore, so I’m pretty psyched. I really enjoyed the machine too, so I think I’ll try to incorporate it into my world more often. It’s kinda fun!!

How do you feel about the snow? Love it or hate it?
You all know I like it! I figure if it’s going to be cold, I would rather it dump snow!
Do any of you use the rowing machine? Am I just really late to this bandwagon?
