Netflix just updated itself on my wii. The interface is glitchy and half baked. Scrolling is super jerky and clunky. Trying to skip ahead or back no longer gives thumbnails so there is no way to tell where you are. They are already in trouble because of the last couple of months of bad decisions. They can ill afford to make the user experience frustrating for those of us who have stuck around!

Google music has ticked me off instantly! They have hundreds of free songs BUT you have to have a credit card on file with Google. After having my iTunes account hacked and credit card info stolen I will not have credit cards on file. Why do you have to select a form of payment for free songs?!

I nearly puked in the gym this morning
It was a good run…so good I've felt the endorphins all day. Nothing like that to make me want to do it again!

After your warm-up, begin with a 6-mile run at your 15K to half marathon race pace. Then jog for 2 to 3 minutes to a track or marked course and run 2K at your goal 5K pace. According to Coach Chapman, "When athletes can hit the goal time on the 2K portion, we feel confident that they have the aerobic fitness to race successfully. If not, then we extend the aerobic preparation phase a little longer."

So my last segment was only 1600 meters instead of 2000. I knew I was on the limit and didn't want to push that last little bit because I was indoors (
puking in grass is far less gross!). Anyway it gives me some confidence that I can hit my goals for this race season
