Lessons from tri training
Lesson number one from tri training came on day one: ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS bring conditioner when swimming at the gym pool. It looked like my cat had used my head as a ball of string. Not good.

Fat but agile
My cat killed two mice. He is 20 pounds and spends 23 hours a day sleeping and the other hour eating. I'm not sure how he managed to kill 2 mice. He actually eats his food, then eats the dogs food. He is pretty spectacular.
We believe, but cannot prove, that he is able to catch mice by luring them in while appearing to be dead. He then pounces. If he doesn't get them on the first pounce, it's over. He gets winded easily.

Flashbacks :0
Went and saw Battlefield LA today. It was awesome.
Somehow, it reminded me of being in Israel and under fire. I seriously will never forget that. I remember driving back north to pick up our gear from the hotel. We were driving towards missiles. We weren't even wearing helmets. who does that? I was pretty freaked out. I was looking up in the sky to see if i could see them coming at us. About an hour before a missile had hit about 300 yards from our hotel.
Later, we went to Ceserea Phillipi to escape the onslaught from Hezbollah. I would wake up in the middle of the night hearing the military choppers circling the city, waiting to warn us of attacks. The loud noise would send me into a panic. the missiles that had hit near us had given me an acute fear of loud explosion like noises.
I know it wasn't that big of deal, but running down those stairs after the BOOM, running for my life to a bomb shelter, that was probably one of the scariest moments of my life. THe hotel shook with the force. Most American civilians don't get bombed. And I got bombed by a janky ass missile shot off a bbq in the back of some Lebenese pick up truck. but still....
I will always hate CNN for their coverage of that event. They blamed Israel. BS. B freaking S. Just cause Hezbollah aim blows and Israel can hit what they aim at. Hezbollah shot at me. They shot at civilians. They shot first. Hezbollah hides behind children. That's why there was casualities...they count on you being angry because kids die, so they hide behind them. they hide their weapons in schools. don't buy the lies.
