is your refrigerator running?

Well, you'd better go catch it!

Ha ha ha ...


Is your refrigerator running?

I actually managed to run the 5K around my usual pace, about a 9:30-minute per mile average. Actually, it's the first 5K that I've come in under 30 minutes since after the marathon. And I couldn't move my arms because I had to hold the box still!

Cost of costume: $6.99 to buy Velcro to hold the doors closed and a few hours of work. I won 1st place in the race costume contest -- $100 gift card to a nearby restaurant!

That is an absolutely brilliant costume! Great concept, and excellent execution. I love it. I can see how you won the costume contest.

Wow - that is just fantastical! What made you think of that?! I'm thinking I understand why your husband thinks you're a freak... but I'm digging that costume! And surely he must be happy with the prize!

The idea just came to me. I'm not sure what my train of thought was, but once it hit me I knew I had to (pun intended) run with it!

And, yes, perhaps I overdid it a little bit ... the sandwiches in the fridge side are in miniature ziplock bags I cut down and taped back together!

Still, a lot of fun. I only wish my office was having a costume contest this year!
