my daughter and I at the High Museum Of Art

Yesterday My daughter and I had a school function to attend. The Spanish class ( 15 bonus points if we show up!!!)was to meet at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta and we were to go through the Picasso to Warhol exhibit and learn a lil bit about Spanish CUlture as I think Picasso was from spain. Anywhoo my daughter and I went and explored some of the art from pre and post revolutionary times. And made our way to the warped paintings of Picasso and the meaningless humdrum of boxes and kitchen garbage that Warhol fans call art. Not an altogether boring trip I have to say.. I am excited about going when I do not have so much homework and do not have to be in a hurry. I was disheartened that more of the people in class did not show up.. Well my kid and I did... We saw great art, did not learn anything about the spanish culture but we did enjoy ourselves and see some really neat stuff from the past. More later I am now off to study before my Algebra class begins @ son los diez y media de la manana.

WEEK 2-Wear Testing Brooks Ravenna 4

Well I have had the Ravenna's for a full week now, I have taken them trail running, side-walk running, treadmill running.. spent some time on the elliptical with them and have even had them endure bootcamp. They are hanging in there but they will not seem to loosen up... it seems where the toes attach to the foot that they are to tight and not going to give any.. my feet are still going dead a little bit and I am hoping that with a little more wear that they will do better.. we will see .. I will be sure to let you all know as I will let the company know in the final review I have to do next week..

Wear Testing Brooks Ravenna 4

Well who would have ever thought I would enjoy being a lab rat? I had answered a questionnaire sometime last year for a chance to be a tester for Brooks Shoes, they are not my number one choice as they are a bit pricey and I have always worn Adidas to workout and run in. I would however wear some of the pricey shoes and try them out for the company if they chose me to do so, all the while thinking ," heck I never win anything so I am sure I will not get to wear some free shoes lol" But just the other day I got an email telling me I had been chosen to "try" the shoes for them and low and behold a bag with some shoes in it came knocking on the door. I just could not believe it. I sent in the first review form even though I had just gotten the shoes they wanted to know what I think about them, they are cute, my high school colors if that were important to me, they are a bit puffy as my Adidas were low to the ground. there is alot of cushion in the Ravenna 4 but they are comfy.. I did have some foot numbing last night at bootcamp but I think that is because they are new. I hope that they work out well for the company, and I hope that I get a chance to do something like this again.. Free shoes and I get to directly talk to the company about how much i do or do not like them.. woot woot.. Great day in the neighborhood.

Ok its about time for my Algebra class so I had better woot woot on in there ..just wanted to share..
This is a picture of the shoe but the one I am trying is maroon and black and silver.. right nice i say..
