GOLD IN MY HEART

Melisa Christian came in 27th place today at the Women's Olympic Marathon Trials. My future squeeze ran a personal best of 2:41:18 (that's a 6:09 mile, faster than my high BMI challenged body can go).

Her 27th place finish isn't good enough to get her to Beijing this summer, but anything she does is good enough for a gold medal in my heart.

Well done, Melisa. Congratulations.

Next up, conjugal visits while I'm in the pokey on stalking charges.

MY FRIDAY CABOODLE

Thank god Kristy Lee Cook has finally been voted off American Idol. But in an effort to cling to her 15 minutes, Kristy announced she just got engaged to Andrew Dobner. Kristy didn't mind getting the boot the other night.

"I’ve made it past top 10 which was my goal and I’m going home to go ride my horse now," she said.

"Horse" is her nickname for Dobner.






There's an article in the Dallas Morning News about Melisa Christian, my hot lass from Dallas. The article states that Melisa

"won't stop at anything until she reaches her goal."

And I'm the same way. I won't stop until she's my sugar cream pie or until she files a restraining order.

Melisa isn't expected to make the Olympic team but I'm praying for a miracle. So don't bother me on Sunday. My eyes will be glued to Melisa.

LESS THAN A WEEK

It's less than a week before the Women's Marathon Trials. Melisa Christian is going to have to pull the race of her lifetime out of her tremendously taut butt to overcome Deena Kastor. But I have faith in My Sweet Melisa.

RUNNING INTO MY ARMS

It's been a while since I've talked about Melisa Christian, my future coitus mate from the Lone Star State. It's less than a month until the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Boston. And what has my girl been up to?

Well last month she placed 2nd overall in the Luke's Locker BGO 12 Miler. Melisa hoofed the 12 miles in 01:10:29. That's 5:52 a mile. She's going to have to do better than that to make the U.S. team, but my guess is she was using the race as a training run.

Perhaps if she visualizes running into my arms she'll break the world record.
