Competition & Condi

I'm a month into the competition at my gym (which I have already lost because the stay at home mommas from the club work out like 6 hours a day, and I dont think they eat), and two weeks into calorie counting. So far ive lost 3.5 pounds! I wont know inches lost until the end of the comp which is in 6 weeks, but i'm not sure i'm down much in that area yet. Yesterday's SuperBowl snacking really wasnt good for the healthy eating.  Ashley & Kevin had the best game day food (Chili, wings, cheese fries, rotel, king cake, ect...), so cheating ensued. But today I was back on the wagon. It will be a busy week of night activities between client dinners, events and more dinners, but i'll try and check in at some point.

The exciting part of the week is on Thursday when we are going to hear Condoleezza Rice speak at Birmingham-Southern. Every since she joined Greystone ive been wanting to play golf with her, but haven't known the right way to go about getting in touch. I'm sure a former Sec.of State doesnt come to Fun Friday at the club bar. However, my husband, with his street smarts vs. my books smarts, just went to the club website, got her email address, and emailed her! (I realize now that was the obvious route, but i really thought there was no way her personal email was listed, wrong.) What's crazy is that she emailed him back! She told him she would let him know when she was in Birmingham next and free to play. WHAT?!?!?  Of course I asked if I could be in on the game, and I got totally shot down. He found her first, fair and square. Like Condi is a prize out of a cereal box. We'll see about that one, I will get into the golf game if I have to ask her myself on Thursday.
