For those who actually know me, you know I’m obsessed with four things:
1. The Minnesota Twins
2. The Backstreet Boys
3. Anything that’s pink or shiny
4. Michael Buble.
Today, I’m focusing on #4.
I stumbled upon my extensive Michael Buble collection tonight. I don’t know what it is about his voice, it’s so… um, what’s the word? Oh yes, PERFECT.

Catching Up
Oh my gosh, has it really been two weeks since I’ve blogged? Wow, where has time gone?
So here’s what’s been going on:
Twinsfest
I didn’t think I could step back in there. I’m talking about the Metrodome. We had too many memories. Too many times it lifted me up, then broke my heart. I saw the best and saddest games this past season at the Dome. #163 was amazing....
You're Invited...
Looking to have rockin’ good time on Valentine’s Day… but don’t have a sweetie? No worries!! You should check out the TweetCrawl (round 2). Yup, we’ll be meeting up again this Sunday!

I, Tracy Perlman, ran 1.5 miles before slowing down.

That’s all I have to say.

U Can't Touch This!
I have some encouraging news this week. I ran an entire mile before slowing down. Yay! Finally. I’m seeing real improvements in my running. I felt good, I think I can push myself to run another quarter to half mile next week.
I solicited advice from some of my friends who are runners. They said when they hit a wall like I did last week, they tell themselves to “shut up and...
MUSIC!
I have the best friends! I recently said I had hit a wall and needed some new workout music. I got TONS of suggestions.
So instead of keeping the awesome list to myself… I thought I’d share the list with you.
Here they are, in no particular order:
Rage Against the Machine
KISS - Detroit Rock City
Thrice - Beggers album
Rihanna - SOS, Disturbia, Pon de Replay, Run this town,...
On the Road (Treadmill) Again.
OK, I’ve picked myself up off the floor. I wiped away my tears. Took a deep breath, put on my running shoes and walked my butt into a gym. I forgot how scary and intimidating joining a gym can be. Everyone looks so fit and healthy. Maybe in a few weeks I’ll look like them. Ha!
As my second day on the treadmill, I forgot how good it feels to run. I did run at a slower pace, but it...
