Less Is More, that's what the title of the post says. It's the new slogan for the New Balance Minimus shoe line. Pretty clever. I came across this today reading runningandrambling.com's review of the road shoe. The author says it looks like the shoes are texting him since it's written on the sock liner that replaces the removable sole in the shoe. That cracks me up! I'll be very curious as to how these feel sockless.

Been a while since I posted so I'll just throw some stuff out there.

First off, I turned 40 on Saturday. Yay! I'm almost half way. Was a good birthday. Had a good 15 mile run on Friday and topped off the tanks with plenty of steamed crab legs at Joe's Crab Shack. Liz tried to embarrass me by getting them to do some sorta birthday craziness, but it was not to be! muhuhahahaaa. Thanks to all of you who sent me birthday wishes. I'm not big on birthdays but it was nice to feel the love.

Sunday brought on the low grade sickies which are still hanging around with all of us. It's nothing too serious.

Liz made a soup on Sunday with navy beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, and barley! We called it 4B soup. It should really be called "Don't go into public" soup!

Watched some movies. Watched 'Kick Ass' which was a lot of fun. We really liked the young girl (Chloe Moretz) in the movie which prompted us to watch 'Let Me In' starring her as well. 'Let Me In' was a pleasant surprise for me. With all the glam that vampires get these days, it was great to see it done so differently. Who would think that a horror remake would be so good? Not an easy feat imo.

Aww Hit Girl is so cute and innocent!

Brawwwwhh!

Feeding time in Let Me In

And finally, I started reading a new book called Tinkers. I'm enjoying it so far. The author Paul Harding actually had a lot of rejection for this story when he first showed it to publishers. Funny that it recently won the Pulitzer for fiction. I say pretty impressive!
