Oh, do I have your attention?
Heh, I knew that would work.
Since I mentioned them, have you touched yours? You know, done your self examination this month? Go ahead, I’ll wait.
No wait, take pics!
Alright, I’m kidding about taking pictures though if you wanted to, and then shared them, I wouldn’t hate you.
Now, in all seriousness, because you all know I’m a serious and no kidding kind a gal, I have some news.
I was going to write you all this tale wrapped around boobs, cancer and dumb luck, but the weekend got away from me so let me just give you the short version.
As you know, I’ve dived headlong into the endurance sports arena. Duh, people, did you read the title of this blog? I’m MAD.
I know!
Anyway, a recent chat with Adonis made me realize that I’m doing these things just for myself. My awesomeness may be lost on some. This didn’t make me happy.
So, I’ve decided to give back.
I’m seeking out activities that I can participate in and raise money and awareness at the same time. Of course, this decision led me to boobs.
What, don’t all roads lead to a pair?
Wait, do I have that cliche wrong?
Damn.
Well anyway, Friday night, while chatting with my girl, MommaKiss, I decided that I was going to do the Susan G Komen 3 day. Yup, I’m gonna walk for boobs. AND I’m gonna do it with my girl, for her girl and for all the girls.
Just you wait. I’ll be hitting you all up for some dough to save the boobs.
And for prayers because I think my feet are gonna need them.
Fair play – wish this was in the UK! Good luck – I will donate. Have friends suffering breast cancer right now and know how devastating it is for the whole family even when it is not terminal.
Also, lovin’ your madness – as another mad woman – cheers on avoiding that attic a little longer… Haha
xx
I
Love
You
And your boobs.
Mad indeed!
Yay!!! So glad you lovely ladies are doing this together!!! And? I love BOOBS!

You are definitely a fan of the boobs so this is an excellent cause for you to join in.

I really did just stop and feel my boobs.
Not even kidding.
Also, I’m SO proud and excited for you and MK.
You know I’ll be supporting you in every way I can.
Keep us posted, my friend.
And any time you want to use your site to ask us to touch ourselves, go for it.
XO

I can report that my moobs are lump free.
I have the same internal conflict as you do – I do events because if I am looking forward to a specific event, I keep myself motivated . . . but I hate not really helping anyone but myself with these events.
At the same time, I absolutely hate badgering friends & family for money. So, I try to keep things to one or two big charity events a year (usually American Diabetes Association & Susan G Komen, though I’m always afraid to commit to the 3 Day Walk).

Hay, that’s a great headline to attract readers >:D
Good luck with your endurance sports. I’ve become too lazy for that kind of things, and never was any good at it >:)
Good luck! And yay for Boobs. And fundraising
I am so stinkin’ proud of you, girl! You have so much energy and go much to give…and you are giving back on this one Big Time.
xoxo

So very proud of you both for doing this walk!! You guys ROCK!! And so do BOOBS!
Well, I really shouldn’t read your blog on the move,should I?
I now languish in a sparse graffiti decorated small room at Her Majesties pleasure.
Thanks to your ‘boobs’ I was suddenly overcome with an irresistible urge to check the “health” of nearby female commuters.
I reckon I’d given at least six ladies the “all clear” before PC Plod felt my collar.
And there was me thinking I was doing those ladies a favour!
I’m due to be sentenced tomorrow!
Ok, first of all, why in the world am I not following your blog anymore? Somehow I got “unfollowed” and just noticed! I have been super busy with our move back to Germany that I never noticed! Ok, I will change that right away! Missed your blog Sorry!!!
And, how awesome of you to do that! Good luck and I’m getting my girls checked next week! eek
Hugs xxx
You go, girl! Just had my first boob x-ray, and while I wouldn’t call it pleasant, it wasn’t the awful ordeal that everyone made it out to be.
Saying prayers for your tootsies!

Yay! You’re fabulous. And though I’ve never actually seen them, I’m sure your boobs are too.

Hit me up, woman. What an awesome cause, one that touches all of our lives. Proud of you!
And I’m not feeling up these preggo boobs right now–they might explode.

Good for you and your boobs! You’re a booby-saver!! My boobies need some savin (not the type of savin you’re talking about though — THANK GOD!) from falling down past my waist line. Ok… that was a bit of an exaggeration, but there not far off!!
