Silly Billy

Determined to qualify by finishing in the first ten, and with no other runners in sight, Billy reversed the direction of the arrow indicating the run route. Little did he know the competitor in front of him had done the very same thing.

I wish that were true Pollyanna but experience has taught me otherwise.

Really? Thank you! I don't think anybody else could say this about me. Most people think I am a pain in the butt. )))

LOL! Good use of the image and the character's name to imply/show us he's a young person without telling us. Congrats on the win!

Cheers! Thanks, but I fear you are giving me too much credit there. I picked the name Billy only because it rhymed with silly. I hadn't thought of the young person aspect at all:)
Congrats to you on the win. There was quite some competition this week.

I've seen that happen in my work too; something comes together I was completely unaware of. I think it is the subconscious mind at work, so we still deserve credit!

Hi Hun! Hope you are doing well. I am just getting over a 3 day migraine from hell but thankfully it is finally going away. I am on top today, although I feel like I am on bottom. See ya wherever my brain ends.

Sorry to hear that sweetie. If you need to rest I can take it from here. Otherwise, see you in the middle.

EDIT; I hope it's ok I motored through them since you're not feeling the best. Don't hesitate to tell me if I did wrong.
