Okay, it's time for random.org! Winner #1:  Brian says he pays it forward by ALWAYS unloading the dishwasher.  Want to move in with me? Winner #2: Beth says that she pays it forward by encouraging new runners.  I'll need that in another few weeks, please! Winner #3 Brea paid it forward by helping a downed motorcyclist, which I would hope someone would do for me, was I ever in that situation.   Email me at gmail dot com and I will get you squared away with your Clif goods! Danielle tagged me with the versatile blogger award, which is completely awesome!   The rules are:  1. Thank & link back the person that gave you the award (see above - and seriously, go check her out, she's hilarious). 2.

I was gone all day and it made my puppy sad and anxious (as...
