A hot canadian actor. No, really.

I found another awesome messed-up crime drama show on Netflix. It's called Durham County. I was really hoping it took place in Durham County, NC (the next county over from where I live), but alas, it's based in Canada.

Dun dun dunnnn


















Plus, the lead actor is kind of a fox for an older man.
Hugh Dillon, you sexy beast.



















Speaking of TV shows, I've decided I want to get basic channels. Now that I pretty much missed out on the Olympics and realized if I could get basic channels, I could watch certain shows (*cough* Bachelor Pad *cough*) in "real time" and my life would be so much more awesome. After talking with some friends, I decided to order a digital antenna.

SuperSonic. It's got to be good, right?


















Hopefully it's the answer to my free tv-watching experience.

Yesterday I took my first kickboxing class in a while and I have a new favorite instructor. Dan. Yes, a dude teaching kickboxing and being super entertaining at the same time. Dan can do a side split. Yeah. I know. He was so excited about the class, he was practically vibrating in the minutes leading up to it. Maybe I can hire him to be my running coach. I'm pretty sure that would motivate me.


In closing, I want to ask a sort of personal question. You don't mind, right?

Yesterday there was an unofficial poll going asking whether women wear underwear or go commando while running. I never knew going commando to run was so popular. Am I the only one who wears undies while running?

  1. Have you checked with your cable provider? Us bundling basic cable with internet is actually cheaper than just having internet, so that's what we do.

    Where was this informal poll? I usually wear under armour boyshort underwear to run.

  2. That really isn't a personal question, almost every running blog has covered it, most in a "Tee hee!" way.

    I don't really understand that dish thing? It lets you watch cable TV for free? Isn't that generally frowned upon by cable companies?

    1. No, it lets you get the basic channels, which I'm supposed to get anyway, but I guess there are too many trees in the way or something. It's kind of way over my head.

  3. I agree...check with your cable provider. We bundle cable and internet and it's just about as cheap as paying for straight internet. Worth checking out. Also, ask them if they have any deals for "new customers." Patrick calls them every six months and basically says "you have all these sweet deals for new customers, but nothing for staying customers. I might have to leave and take X deal...unless you can convince me to stay with you." And they give him the 'new customer deals' or similar. We just added HBO and our cable/internet cost WENT DOWN. Go figure.

    No underwear with Nike shorts that have the built in ones. But yes, underarmour underwear when wearing running tights/capris.

    1. I didn't even know under armour sold undies. I'll have to check it out. They sell my favorite sports bras.

  4. I don't know how you've made it this long without TV. I'd rather starve than go without. First priority is feeding dogs, then TV, then food for us, then other stuff.

    I wear undies even with running shorts with the liners. I think about going without and freak myself out and can't do it.

    And Dan is awesome. He is so excited. You should see him teach Zumba on Fridays. No really, you should go to Zumba with me on Friday.

  6. There was a guy like that at a gym I had a temporary pass too and he was amazing. Where was this debate yesterday - was it the one on Gourmet Runner's blog? I thought that was like last week though. I'm so out of the loop. Underwear, yes, unless it's a tri or I am wearing something that has built in underwear. I don't get people who wear extra underwear when it's already built in.

  7. He is a sexy beast! I will have to check that show out.

    I commando in running shorts, but wear undies in my running skirts because they don't really have built in undies just little shorts underneath and it feels odd to go commando in them.

    I have missed Bachelor Pad this season :( I forgot about it. All I have are the basic channels and think with Netflix it is plenty!

  8. I wear undies but went commando for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It was kindof fun:)

  9. I wear Moving Comfort briefs and they are hella comfy. I'm just not in to commando. My really dirty secret is that I love Canadian teen dramas. Degrassi and The LA Place FTW.

  10. I feel naked without undies...even if the shorts have liners.
