Do Girls Spit?

Do girls spit?  Good Lord!  Of course not.  Wait...that's not entirely true.  I spit today while running.  Is that gross?  Yes, it is.  Very.  But I had to, swallowing was not an option.  OK dirty minded people I am talking about exercise here!   & believe it or not it's not the first time this week that I spit.  I had to have another, yes you read correctly, another crown put in at the dentist.   How many is that now, 4?  4 fake teeth.  I hope they never fall out or break because I'm going to start looking like a Jack-O-Lantern!  Which is not cool, even though I was born in October.

I don't even know how many teeth I have that aren't filled with some sort of dental device.   Root canals, crowns, fillings, built in retainer, the list is endless.  At least I guilted him in to 3 free tubes of whitener.  Hey, if I'm going to have a mouth full of fake teeth, by God they better be pearly white!  But while I was having my tooth gutted the other day my dentist left the room & it was all down hill from there - but it's ok to spit at the dentist, right?  Right.  Not so much while jogging.  It is soooo uncouth, to say the least.   But I have seen marathoners poop all down their leg, so what's a little spit.  Yeah, I agree it is still gross.

Today's run was a quick one.  Only 2 short miles, but I ran about 4 yesterday at the beach & it was chilly!!!!  41 degrees when I got there.  That's only a few degrees away from the white stuff people!  & let me tell you, I am not ready to see snow until at least 2011, think December 2011!   It gives me hives to even think of snow!  Ugh!

But enough about the weather.  Today at lunch as I was looking through the paper, someone hands me a picture of a local woman (questionable) that won a race over the weekend.  Seriously, this woman looked as if she had 1.  Never missed 1 second of sun her entire life.  2.  Didn't have any teeth & 3.  Needed to eat a sandwich (like the 6' party sub kind).  I started to panic.  If I kept working out...would this happen to me?  I mean I already have a mouthful of crowns, could I too be on my way to toothless skeletor/alligator lady?  Jesus, I hope not.  Not that we were diminishing her big win, but come on lady, eat something already!!!!  After a few more minutes of picking this woman apart I realized that I'd have to run 20 miles a day & maintain a diet of lettuce & twigs for the next 10 years if I was ever to look like that.  Back to my eggplant rollitini!
