Way to go on your crunchie things!! I think you should be in charge of naming all new moves, they sound much more pleasant than BURPEE. Obviously a man named that!

From Camille on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 14:39:19

LOL I think you are right. The first time I heard of a burpee I had to do a double take. They really should call it the push up from Hades. Especially when you go down, push up, jacks, one leg up, other leg up, jump up, run, rinse and repeat. LOL

From Kelli on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:01:38

I AGREE!!!! They are the worst.

By the way, I am hooked on Twilight already. You better get reading it!

From Camille on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:03:07

Hmmm... I'm currently reading a short who-dun-it. Maybe I'll make Twilight my post 1250 crunchy thingies reward. :o) Thanks for the recommendation.

From Kelli on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:16:18

By then I will be done with it, so I can tell you if it is worth picking as a reward!

I would pick ice cream or candy or new clothes!

From Camille on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:37:03

he offered a dozen chippers from Paradise, but I had to turn that down. I decided that it would defeat the purpose. Though, maybe if I actually stopped eating sweets it would be worth as a reward. I'm bad!

From kungfublonde on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:43:12

For the reward to work for me it would have to be something I couldn't just go out and get myself anytime I want. And then it would be REALLY effective! I've been thinking about it since you first posted the idea; about what would motivate me as far as rewards go. It's a tough one...

From Camille on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:45:15

I dont' think the reward it self is what modivates me... but that "all about me" momment when we go pick out my reward. I'm totally lame, I know.

From kungfublonde on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:47:18

If it works then it isn't lame at all! I say breakfast in bed :) That's something Mike does a lot that makes me feel like a total princess, even if it's just tea. That's an "all about me" moment I'll never get over!

From Camille on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:48:23

there's an idea!

From kungfublonde on Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 15:51:27

yes, make that "all about you" moment a Lonnnnnnnng moment :) When Mike does it, he gets the girls up and feeds the dog too- it's a little mini vacation every time.

From Camille on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 09:21:02

Rachel... maybe Mike needs to send Brandon a message to tell him how to do that. I love my husband, he is the greatest at almost everything, but sometimes doesn't know how to do the "all about Camille" time, or be cute romantic. It's not that he doesn't want to be, he just doesn't know how to be.

From Kelli on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 13:19:49

I say go all out---ask for a trip to Hawaii!

From Camille on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 13:47:42

LOL I'm doing crunchies... not winning the lottery!

From Kelli on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 13:48:51

Go for the gold!!! Tell him he did not specify a price range!

From Camille on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 13:50:03

LOL He didn't specify a price range because he knows I'm cheap. I'm the savings account and he is the checking account. ha ha ha.

From Kelli on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 13:53:08

Okay, well then, the book was REALLY good. I loved it. Never thought I would admit to all of the Twilight hype, but I really liked it---read the entire book yesterday!

You could ask for the entire series!

From Camille on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 14:01:19

Wow... you really did like it! :o) I don't know what I'm goign to ask for just yet, but I've been kicking tail on my crunchies (only 20 points to go), so I better come up with something soon. I am liking Rachel's breakfast in bed idea. Or maybe a long bubble bath. I haven't had one of those in a long time.

From Kelli on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 14:44:27

MASSAGE????

From Camille on Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 14:45:55

oooo.... that's another great idea!
