  • It’s getting hot out! That means running mileage is going to go down… and biking mileage is going to go up! And! Steven got me schweet new wheels for my bike. And the blue tires are finally on. Hells yeah.

  • Speaking of biking, I retracted from being a Venus de Miles ambassador. My schedule is nutso crazy with no unplanned weekends in sight. I tried to combat the spring blues with a full calendar and it just made me crazy… and left me not wanting to take care of myself. So. Time to free up the calendar (especially if I want to take on more work with my other job). I still think Venus de Miles is a great event and if I decide (closer to the event date) I do want to participate I will pay the entry fee and do the fundraising.
  • And speaking of my other job (and really, the Multisport club), we got some schweet cycling jerseys!!!

  • Someone I know just got braces! Exciting!!!

  • So, we are watching Les Misérables. I like the story and all, but I think I am more of a fan of musicals with singing acts, rather than singing dialogue… if that makes sense. I would rather they talk in between singing. No sing talking. Ha ha ha. I have to have the closed captioning on so I can understand what the heck they are saying, too.

  1. OMG- that shirt is hysterical!!!

  2. Anne says:

    I think my biking mileage is about to go up too – I love summer biking! I think the challenge will be to continue running too, since I’d definitely rather be on my bike. Love the new jersey!

    I thought I was the only one left who hadn’t seen Les Mis 🙂 I’m with you on the sing talking, I’m not a fan.

  3. Michele says:

    Sing as you read my comment…

    I LOVE the cat shirt! Oh and the cycling shirt is cool too!

    Schweet wheels on the bike! Blue is cool!!

    I’m about to up my biking too, and my running! I LOVE May!! Usually the weather is perfect!!!!

    Okay, you can stop singing now…LOL

  4. I love those cycling wheels … they make me happy just looking at them! I remember all the sweet perks we got when I worked at the gym – lots of really nice workout gear was a plus!

  5. kelsey says:

    Please tell me you own that classy cat shirt. I think you should make Loop Looks do a post on how to wear it…

  6. Alyssa says:

    Your bike looks so flashy! I love it! I’m very excited to start biking more. I’m not excited, however, for the bike short tan lines.

  7. Sizzle says:

    Sing-talking is the WORST. That is why I do not get on board with Les Mis. I saw it because I’m a good daughter who took her mom (she loves that shit) but ohmyhell it was torture. Especially when Russell Crowe sang. BARF.

    • kilax says:

      LOL!!!! I am happy not to be the only one who feels this way. Russell Crowe is not making me want to barf yet, but I am only 1.5 hours in to it 😉

  8. chezjulie says:

    That cat shirt is super classy. I think it would be great paired with a pencil skirt in a dark color for the office.

  9. Kiersten says:

    I whined all spring about how cold and icky it still was. Now it’s finally warm and I am whining about how it is too warm for running. I forgot how nasty sweaty I get when it is above 50! Gross. Def time for the bike!

    • kilax says:

      YES! Exactly! I did not forget so I did not complain about the cold. I secretly (and not so secretly) loved it when it was cold. Sigh. I bet if I lived in the heat I would get used to it for running! But I will always be a sweaty beast!

  10. Erin says:

    Hooray for blue tires! Finally!! Too bad the weather got chilly again. I’d much rather run than bike when it’s 50 or below but I need to get out on my bike soon.

    That shirt is terrifying. And the most terrifying part is that I think you took that picture in your house 🙂

    • kilax says:

      IKR?! (re: finally). I’d rather bike when it’s a bit warmer too. Don’t want to be all bundled up on the bike. I

      Erin! That is NOT my house!

      It’s Gina’s house 😉

  11. Losing Lindy says:

    those wheels are awesome!

    I am hoping our mileage goes up this summer, I need to get V past training wheels

  12. Ooooh, we should totally BIKE!!!

  13. Beth says:

    The blue tires are awesome! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bike with something other than black tires, and I have no idea why, because the blue tires make your bike look awesome. Please tell me you actually own that tshirt–I can’t imagine actually seeing that in a store and not buying it. 🙂

    • kilax says:

      Thank you! They have red tires too! We went with blue since my bike is blue but I would like my bike to be orange… that is neither here nor there though…

      YES! I totally had to get the shirt! I wore it out for drinks Monday night 😉

  14. OMG YOUR TIRES LOOK AWESOME!! i need to replace mine.. but idk where or how to get them. tips? lol I struggle when changing my flat… haha

    • kilax says:

      Oh gosh! I know nothing yet about changing a flat. And my husband figured out how to put these on. Bike shops are really helpful!

      And we ordered the blue tires online. Some random tire site. The new wheels are from Amazon 🙂

  15. Marcia says:

    Now those cats are classy! I’m with you on not singing the dialog. I’d never be able to keep a straight face doing that.

  16. Emily says:

    It was good to see you yesterday, even if only for a few minutes! That shirt ROCKS. I am super curious who is getting braces!?!??! I wore braces as an adult for three years so I am a huge supporter of anyone who is thinking of getting braces as an adult.

    • kilax says:

      Steven got braces! I am so excited for him! He wanted to get them for a long time and was worried about having them as an adult, but I think they look great and that he will be so happy with the results 🙂

  17. Mica says:

    I La-HOOOOOVE your blue bike tires. They are so sassy and awesome! I wish we could ride bikes together.

    I went to the campus wide graduation ceremony today, and they did played a medley of Les Misérables songs. I wasn’t a fan of the movie either, but mostly because RUSSELL CROWE, WHY DO YOU SOUND LIKE YOU’RE SINGING THROUGH A PIECE OF WONDERBREAD??

  18. Kandi says:

    I saw a woman on my cruise with a classy cat shirt on and I thought of you. 🙂
    I prefer musicals with speaking dialogue too. I haven’t watched Les Mis because of that.
