What's Working: I'm Famous People!
Have ya seen the latest Sonoma (California) Index-Tribune- page A9 to be exact? The Tuesday Edition where my name and stats are in BLARING form for the world to read and admire? The pic above shows it all! I'm below the two fifteen year-old foot ball dudes. Well, okay I'm more below that, and to the left by Sports BRIEFS. OH, but it ain't brief baby!.. okay maybe it is...but can ya still see it? My name in all it's glory?
Here, lemme help you out:
I'm to the left of Casino Night, under the 'Litzenberg wins Vintage Run'. There it reads so fluidly and with such succinctness. Ahhh....Ya still can't see it?
Ok, lemme help a bit more:
Now I KNOW you see it! Well, if not, I'm at the bottom of the amazing paragraph. Oh, and they actually list me as Anne vs. Anne Marie AND my time was NOT twenty forty FOUR, but rather twenty forty THREE. (those precious seconds count baby when you're dealin' with a 5k). But other than all that...can ya see what I'm talkin' about people? I'm freakin' famous!!
All right, I know I'm being a bit tongue and cheek. So the reality is this:
Yesterday I saw a news stand and immediately wondered if the race was in the paper. So I bought a copy, eagerly flipped through the ~15 pages as my kids sweltered in the heat of the back seat of the car. I finally found the paragraph, and it gave me a Cheshire cat grin. And that's the truth baby.
I'll take a local paper shout out! That DEFINITELY works for me. Now... I just need to figure out how I'm gonna cut, paste, and lacquer this sucker onto a piece of driftwood to hang in our living room? ;-) Now lemme know....what's working for you this week?

hmm what's working for me...broccoli!
(oh, and I'm the same with the Anne/Anne-Marie thing. I don't mind if people call me Anne, but when my name is printed, I like it to be Anne-Marie.)
YAY YOU!!
You rock.
I love seeing my name in print, too!
This is sooo cool.
Working for me - being back in my own bed in the UK
Now that is a paper to be proud of!!
Way to go!
Great time!
Ok I hope this story doesn't make me sound like too much of a crazy obsessive blog-stalker friend but for some reason I wanted to share and let you know I def thought about you this am!
