Live Strong!!

Video: Inspiration - LIVESTRONG. My favorite Cycling video of all time. Lyrics to the song are posted at the end of this blog entry.

After TWENY NINE days straight of work I AM FINALLY ON VACATION!!!



It has been a LONG month. I feel like I have been on auto-pilot at home forever. All I can think about is what I still have to do at work and I am putting all of my energy into completing everything. 14+ hour days for a month will take all the energy out of you. I feel completely braindead. *lol*



My Exec’s took me for lunch yesterday to thank me for not sleeping for the past 29 days *lol* There were 12 of us there and the bill came to $587.61 BEFORE tip!! Yea, it was a REALLY good lunch *grinz* I had a braised shank of Lamb with a crazy mushroom risotto, steamed green beans and this amazing chocolate cup full of fruit and fresh cream thing for desert. It was soooooooooo good!!! 2 hour “power lunches” on the corporate credit card are HIGHLY recommended *lol* The 4 bottles of wine we polished off during our 2 hour lunch made the rest of the day really entertaining too *lmao*


Video: Tour de France Highlights. Its Awesome.


As you can see, I’ve gone a little Tour crazy on my page. I am SOOOOOOO freekin pumped for July 7th. Talking with some of this years Tour Riders on Facebook and MSN Messenger, they all seem to think that Alejandro Valverde is gonna be the winner. My money is still on Oscar Pereiro though. We’ll see how it all rolls out.


Video: Discovery Team. They are the greatest.


Video: Amazing mountain climb. Armstrong Falls. Ulrich demonstrates class.


Lance and I are heading to the lake for this Canada Day long weekend. We are packed, the coolers are ready…I wanna GOOOOOOOOO but I gotta wait till Lance gets home from work (yea, he had to work today…neener neener neener *lol*) I don’t have to be back at work until Wednesday of next week so I think we are planning to stay until Tuesday, but it all depends on the weather.



Things in my exhausted world should start slowing down soon. I hope ya’ll have a GREAT weekend!!



Wideawake – Maybe Tonight, Maybe Tomorrow



I heard the news today.

It came out of nowhere.

I wish I could run away,

but where would I go?

Is this my destiny?

Something so unfair...

What will become of me?

God only knows.



And they say the road to heaven might lead us back through hell.

Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow,

we will win this fight and bury this sorrow.

We're so alive, still holding on, not ready to die,

so we LIVESTRONG.



My pride is left for dead,

as my world gets shaken.

The thoughts inside my head

are so hard to control.

I am staring down the unknown,

but one thing is certain.

You could break my body,

but you will never break my soul.



And they say the road to heaven might leads us back through hell,

but we're holding on for more than stories to tell.

Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow,

we will win this fight and bury this sorrow.

We're so alive, still holding on, not ready to die,

so we LIVESTRONG.
