I took yesterday off but went to the gym this morning. Today makes workout #8 in 12 days. I’m rocking the house! Also, I’m making better time on the elliptical. Not great time, but better. Today I ran 3 miles at 34.07. I almost shaved a minute off my time on Monday. Pretty impressive, methinks. […]

Yesterday was workout 7/10. I ran 3 miles in 35 minutes. I was happy with that. My goal when I do my first official 5k is 35 minutes. I’m not too far from that, so Yay me! I’m not ready for a 5K yet, I don’t think, but if I keep going to the gym […]

I wanted to post a picture of a chicken with it’s head cut off since my life at the moment makes me feel like I’m running around like the proverbial… Unfortuantely there are no cute cartoony pictures of the image mentioned above on Google Images. If one of you decide to get creative with Photoshop […]

Have you heard? Macy’s will donate $1 for every letter written to Santa and dropped off at any Macy’s location in their special Santa mailbox. All you have to do is address your child’s letter to “Santa at the North Pole.” Write one today! It’s fun for the kids and great for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

I’m bad about rewarding myself. And when I do finally reward myself, it’s usually with food or drink. Which, of course, is a very bad idea if the reward is for weight loss. Rewards work, but for me, I think they work better coming from other people. If I know that I’m working to get […]

Workout update: I went to the gym again yesterday. That means I have officially been 6 times in the last 9 days. We’ll pause for a moment while you worship my greatness. On your knees now, like proper little followers. Nice. I’m planning to go to the gym today as well. I had hoped to […]

I’m staying with a friend in San Diego this weekend. Its one of those weird met-her-on-the-internet situations which should feel bizarre and uncomfortable but at this point I’ve met so many cool people on the web I just don’t even think about it that way. The funny thing is, this dear lady who graciously saved […]

Warning: Our tagline is a bumpy road full of cussing for a reason. Do not click if you’re sensitive. Also, I look like shit and still hate the way I sound. And I have decided I either have the strongest sense of self EVER to post these, or I have sunk so low into the […]

I know, not the most original title but I live in Southern California when it hits the 60s I start wearing ski jackets. (Besides, when else are all those SoCal airheads supposed to wear their designer Ugg boots?) Anyway, I’ve been working out! At the gym! While listening to instructional CDs about probate Real Estate.

Fueled by caffeine, hip-hop and determination, I set out to kick ass at the gym. I did 30 mins on the Elliptical and I “ran” the first mile in 11.45 at an incline, officially breaking my 12.50 rut. The 2nd mile was slower, coming in at 12.30. I slowed it down slightly after that, alternating […]
