Valentine's Day

Did I mention my pet peeve is when people refer to Valentine's Day as Valetime's Day?  Seriously, how stupid are people?  I suppose they are the same people that say lie-berry as opposed to library.  OK, so I know that I am not a Rhodes Scholar, but I'd like to think of myself as fairly educated!  Thankfully, I have not heard it referred to this year as such.  My Valentine's Day will consist of exercise, exercise, exercise & some drilling of my teeth.  What a better reminder that I should cut out the sweets, right?  A root canal on Valentine's Day.

Tomorrow I will send Louie off to doggy day care where the doggies will indulge in Valentine's Day dog funnery, whatever that means.  His posting on facebook - under Purr N Pooch's webpage is in second place.  We are hoping that he wins a free bath!  If you're reading this prior to 12 noon on February 15th, please vote for his picture.  Even though he hates baths, or baffs as we like to call them, he could always use a free one.  I think they are also getting free red bandannas tomorrow too.  Lucky dogs.  What a life Louie has as Mayor of Doggytown.

In more Alcatraz related news, I went back to spin class today.  They opened a new studio - Hammer House - in Red Bank.  They have another location, in Colts Neck, but this one is much closer to home.  But, like hot yoga, it will get thrown into the mix here & there, as I already go to a gym that I spend too much money on anyway.  Ha ha.

Tomorrow I believe I am back in the pool.  Great.  Did I mention my horrible ear infection?  No?  Well the other night, on my first day back in the pool, I forgot my earplug.  Yes, I said earplug, not nose plug, which would make me more of a dork than I already am!  I get in the pool & swoosh, water goes right in my right ear.  I have no idea why this has been happening, but for the past two years, once water gets into my right ear, there's no getting it out & poof, instant ear infection.  I went home & tried all my remedies & prescription drops & still I have an ear infection.  The doctor prescribed Cipro the other day & I am very glad because it definitely worked.  I am also available now to open any & all anthrax laced letters for the State Department, well at least for the next 5 or 6 days.  Note to self, pack ear plugs in purse.  Hey, I already carry a plethora of crazy shit in my purse, what's the big deal with some ear plugs?

So people, if you're still reading this I hope everyone has a lovely TIME on VALENTINE'S DAY tomorrow & I hope to be able to get over & get a tasty cupcake to reward myself for a great workout.  Oh wait, that's probably not tooth friendly.  Who cares? Have to celebrate!
