8kidmom is heading back to Utah today.  It's always a pleasure to run with a celebrity.  We met at Jared's house and ran with him and his wife, Michelle.  We only ran 3.28 so everyone would be good to go for a nice long one tomorrow.  Well, they can go on a nice long one.  I'll sleep in :)  I felt so dumb today because I couldn't hear anything.  No, dumb means you can't talk.  Deaf means you can't hear.  But I didn't do a lot of talking anyway because I couldn't hear.  Not that I talk a lot anyway.  What are we talking about?  Oh yeah, running.  At least the run was nice.

I think the deaf and dumb problem might have something to do with running with such a pretty girl! Could it be more of a concentration problem?

From SlowJoe on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:09:59 from 184.79.24.255

My thoughts are usually plenty dumb without me having to talk. Huh, did that makes sense?

From Burt on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:15:25 from 72.223.90.79

IJR - She is very pretty. Hard to believe she has a 20 year old kid. Almost 20. And 7 others! But I would never say that because Ben could take me out in 3.76 seconds.

Joe - How can you talk if you haven't got a brain? I don't know. But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking.

From I Just Run on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:19:26 from 67.79.11.242

Hey Joe,

What is Burt insinuating with his comment to you?

From SlowJoe on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:21:08 from 184.79.24.255

I don't know. So help me, I don't know!! If I only had a brain I could figure it out.

From Burt on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:25:21 from 72.223.90.79

Nothing. Just that I'm a fan of movies patterned after the Wiz.

From I Just Run on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:29:20 from 67.79.11.242

The critics rated that movie 4.7. It should have been a .7!

From Burt on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:30:06 from 72.223.90.79

It has an all star cast!

From I Just Run on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 12:20:18 from 67.79.11.242

All star cast in what country...? I couldn't even watch all of the Trailer.

From The Quiet Pirate on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 13:08:50 from 152.26.59.252

Sometimes when I run, I need to Wiz.

Where do you find these beautiful people to run with?

From Burt on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 13:15:15 from 206.19.214.144

IJR - I lent my copy of the Wizard of Oz to a black friend of mine who had never watched it. After showing it to all his little brothers and sisters he was telling me how they were all excited because it was just like The Wiz.

QP - I hope you hold it in! I don't know why beautiful people like to run with me. Opposites attract?

From DaleG on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 14:20:38 from 76.27.13.205

I was also wondering why so many beautiful people come run with you. I can't even get ugly people to run with me.

Take a Q-Tip or 6 and clean out your ears.

From Burt on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 14:47:33 from 206.19.214.144

Dale - You are beautiful no matter what they say. Words can't bring you down. A Q-tip bursting an eardrum might, though.

From DaleG on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 15:08:30 from 76.27.13.205

Words won't bring me down

From Rhett on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 16:33:32 from 74.32.222.239

You have to have the award for having met the most fastrunning bloggers out of anyone. Very impressive Burt.

From seeaprilrun on Fri, May 27, 2011 at 18:12:07 from 174.70.177.86

8 kids! Wow! She's gorgeous. I'm jealous. In the picture you look great as well Burt--and a sizeable bit more slender than in your profile pic. Is that an old picture? If you took that picure, like, yesterday, then I will go shove my foot in my mouth and blame it on a bad angle. Maybe I better go stick my foot in my mouth now.

From eightkidmom on Mon, May 30, 2011 at 14:41:13 from 4.254.232.152

Thanks for all the nice comments about my "beauty" at 5:30 am. Haha!! Look, Burt, you have me BLOGGING again!! Good thing I have a holiday to kill. :D

From Burt on Mon, May 30, 2011 at 14:42:17 from 72.223.90.79

yeah, it's been a while. Is your son excited about going to Montana? I can't wait to see the mountains in his eyes.

From Burt on Mon, May 30, 2011 at 14:46:06 from 72.223.90.79

Rhett - You were one of the first I met. Remember that.

April - That's a very recent picture. I'm preggers. JK. I'm not. That picture is about 5 years old, I think.
