Seven minutes.
Seven minutes: not a long time, but how valuable it might be depends on the situation. The following are the top ten, seven minute situations: good, bad, and / or indifferent.
-Seven minutes of snooze time in the morning: why is that so awesome?….I can’t know, but I do it every morning during the week, and repeatedly on the weekends…hhmm
-Seven minutes at the end of a close (insert favorite sport) game. Sometimes the best seven ever, sometimes the worst, sometimes the longest.
-Seven minutes in traffic may potentially be the worst: it’s only rivaled by the next two…..
-Seven minutes standing in line at the bank
-Seven minutes listening to that co-worker who likes to get right up next to you to talk….you know the one: he’s the same one who loves onions on the polish sausage he eats everyday for lunch.
-Seven minutes of stairmill on level 42: Bittersweet. A definite love / hate relationship
-Seven minutes of making….well, you know….doing the, you know….having you know….gyrating with, you know….Priceless and considered to be just a warm up.
-Seven minutes listening to any one of the current Presidential candidates make promises and / or bash his / her opponent…Excruciating! And as an outlet, may I suggest the next seven minute situation for relief.
-Seven minutes during the actual drilling portion of a root canal. You know, the seven minutes while the dentist is drilling and still talking to you, like you were in the mall having a coffee.
Dentist - "So Scott, I went to the track the other day and was able to run a few miles. Felt pretty good (Insert very loud drill noise here) for the first mile, the second was a bit rough, but the last was fantastic. What have you been doing lately for your workouts?"
(Insert more drilling and grinding noises here)
Scott - "PPhhfmmffmhh!"
Dentist - "Ah, that’s fantastic, I’m gonna have to try that….now make sure you keep that mouth open."
And last but most definitely not least - Seven minutes before five o’clock on Friday afternoon….You betcha!!!!
Happy Humpday, and remember: If you can’t be real, why be?

Sadly I know about the last 7 minutes of a football game. I am a huge K-State fan and a Dolphins fan. I can not tell you the number of times K-State was leading going into the final 6 or 7 minutes only to blow it big time and the stupid Dolphins as pitiful as they were lost like 8 games by 3 points or less.

LOL at NB’s comment!!
There’s a level 42 on the stairmill?!
March 20, 2008 at 9:38 am
Yep and typically it’s the level right before 43 and right after 41..haha..Actually, I’m so out of shape, level 2 just feels like level 42. Sorry, I wrote that looking to make myself feel better about being such a sloth….

Seven IS the lucky number, supposedly.
Love your blogs, Scott! BTW, have you competed yet? Or is it looming nearer on the horizon?
