You ever have those moments when you're trying to blog, but your mind is a blank, and you sit staring at the screen without a word in your little head?


It's not often that I have nothing to say (just ask my family), but going back to work after almost two weeks off sucked the life right out of me last night.


On my way home this morning, munching my granola bar and swigging water to keep awake, I blew right by a state trooper at the not-so-slow speed of 75mph.  (My bed was calling my name, what can I say?)


The fact that I didn't even notice the cop until I was already past him tells you how tired I was.


I think my van must have the power of invisibility, though, because he didn't even notice me.   (Maybe he was tired, too...)


That burst of adrenaline got me the rest of the way home,  though.


So...where was I going with this?


Oh, yeah, the mind-blank-blogging-thing.


I was grateful this afternoon to see that I was tagged by Brainella for a photo tag post.


Ahh, blog fodder!  Thanks, Julia!  Here's the tag:


1. Open the first photo folder
2. Scroll down to the 10th photo
3. Post the 10th photo and tell the story about it
4. Pass this along to 5 other blogs

New Year's Eve, 2009.  On the right is my sweet friend, Monica, who pushes me to the limit every Friday morning during Muscle Max, runs marathons like they're nothing, and is my inspiration to get into shape (try looking at her perfect little body while you're struggling to do those last ten lunges...that'll inspire you).  In the middle is our friend, Diane, who I've known since our girls were five and twirling around in dance class together.  The three of us coached Girls on the Run last fall, and plan on doing it again this year.


Yeah, I don't have enough energy to tag five other bloggers.  If you, too, are in the need of some blog fodder, take the tag and run with it.


I'm gonna go sit in the sun and try to get rid of this farmer's tan I'm sportin'...
