I did a combined 3 1/2 miles on the treadmill tonight. I can't believe it! Well, my feet can't they are a hurtin bad!
I mixed it up with the bike for a bit, as well as some weights.
Spent 3/4 of the football game there, not too shabby.
I'm pooped now. Got some food ready for tomorrow, and I get to leave DMV @ 3:30, so I can be at Macys by 5. Oh what a day tomorrow will be. At least we get wednesday off!
So the reading the magazine while on machines really did help the time go by faster....
but
It made my stomach queasy. I seriously get motion sickness if someone else is driving weird.
So, I dont know if I can do the reading again thing.
Anyways, I did 30 minutes on the treadmill, it would have been longer but i accidentally hit the "STOP" button.. and well, it stopped, so I figured that was a sign to move on.
Spent another 20 minutes on the stationary bicycle.
And then another I dunno 5 ish on this cool ab machine that like, rocks back and forth and yeah im sure ill be feeling it all tomorrow.
Is it just me or has this day drug itself out. Seriously.
It was going good up until lunch time, and then slowed down.
Now it feels like its completely halted.
During lunch today I went to Target and bought some cute pink gym shorts for $7.99,
and then I saw cute cute socks, 5/$5 Couldn't pass those up!
After work I stopped by Ross to find some new tennis shoes, which I did. The ones i have kinda squish my toesies and make it uncomfortable to work out in. Proud to say I went to the gym twice this week, one of them I went swimming, and realized I have no lung capacity anymore whatsoever. So I'll be working on that. I plan on going tonight as well. Dunno about swimming though, Ive had this horrible cramp in my upper arm all day I must have slept on it weird because its very painful to lift it at all.
I was also looking at the comforters and sheets at Ross, but I couldn't decide, and put back the purple satin sheets I'd found thinking that the cats would probably just tear them up anyways...
I've got a huge new INstyle to read, I think I'll take it with me to the gym, may give me motivation to stay on some cardio machine longer.... I lose focus so quickly lol.
I received a call back from the HOA today, after I left a message about noise complaints and people sitting out front blaring their music while they wait for someone. He gave me a number for the "security" guy, "Chuck". No idea who he is. But said to call him or the police in the evenings if I'm highly annoyed (=
I need to send my NetFlix movies back, I've been majorly slacking this week on that.
Friday is Payday.
Saturday is Root Canal Day
and possibly get nails done day.
Super duper exciting right? I'm also gonna see about getting at least 2 new tires. I think I can afford 2.
Tyler also said he'd do my front brakes for me, cuz he's awesome like that.
That is all.
Man, its only Tuesday, this week is going by slowly already.
Whenever I watch the Biggest Loser, it makes me WANNA go to the gym.. but for some reason, i just dont have the motivation to... I wish I had it, so I could go every day, but I know its just not in me. I really wanna go today seeing as how they took my monthly payment out of my account. grrr! maybe tomorrow (=
Went grocery shopping after work, got a lot of good, healthy, yummy things. Only spent 36 bucks! Saved over 16 with my store savings card. That rocks my socks.
I wonder if ATC would let me be a mooch this weekend and do some laundry. I don't really have a lot extra to blow on quarters right now.... hmm hmm hmm
Apparently Josh is coming into town this week, so we're supposed to hang out with him Saturday night. Hopefully ATC is feeling better and well enough to come hang out for a bit.
Went over to my co-workers house tonight, she gave me, a bottle of Apple Vodka, lil more than half left in it, and 2 bottles of carpet sprinkle that her family is allergic to. That rocks! It was something I needed and saves me from spending my own money on it! I love free things! Esp. Free VODKA!! Hahahah.
Now I feel like a fatass...
I ordered a Pizza Mia pizza from Pizza Hut today (thats a lot of "pizza" in one sentence) and some cheese sticks.
Just got home from the gym with Ron....and did
30 mins on treadmill = 245 calories. 15 mins on stair stepper/elliptical machine = 145 calories
When I got home, decided to check the nutritional value of the food I ate...
One silce of Pizza Mia either cheese or pepperoni (I had one of each) = 200 calories each.
One Cheese Stick (i had 2) = 180 calories
Well ok so my whole workout totally didnt even burn off what I ate..... or maybe I burned more calories than what the machine says since I'm a fatass LoL.. or maybe not cuz I put in my age & weight on the machine and it calculates it. Who knows.
Hey, at least I went to the gym, and it was effing HOT in there like a sauna good god.
I really wanna start swimming there. I need to buy some goggles.
Hows it going out there in VOX land?!
(and livejournal for xposting)
I'm on a countdown until I finally get chantelle's computer. Hopefully by next Monday if we can get all the stuff transferred onto her new laptop.
I gotta look for a free computer desk on craigslist too.. And figure out where the hell to put it. Argh.
It's payday week woohooo! Can't wait till friday. Gotta pay rent though that sucks.
Speaking of suckage. My dishwasher, I got it to drain.. then decided to run a load to make sure it would continue working. Well, it didn't Surprise surprise. What it did in addition to not working, is create a mushy kitchen floor. So everytime I stepped on the fake wood linolium, a puddle of water came up. It also started leaking to the unit downstairs. So that's wonderful. My landlord left me a message saying "well you'll just have to hand wash things for a bit until we can figure out what to do" ...... no shit? But really.. this is the 3rd appliance to give me problems. I swear, if the oven blows up, I'm moving out. I really don't feel like I should be paying full amounts of rent when shit keeps breaking.
Anyways.
Friday night we hit up Baker St again for wonderful $2.25 Malibu & Cokes! Yummy.. by the time happy hour was over (9pm) and hanging out for a bit, I felt wasted. I was at home in bed by 11:30 and passed the hell out. Felt like a good night. I got multiple texts and calls from Library guy and somehow answered one of them, and he just repeatedly asked if i wanted to fuck. And I kept saying no because a. i was drunk. b. i was asleep and c. because i just didnt want to. He finally gave up and i fell back asleep.
Saturday i was productive and cleaned ilke 50% of the house and did laundry, but have yet to put it away. Maybe tonight I will.
Sunday Ron and I went to challengers to watch the bronco's lose to the damn chiefs. WTF super lame. I took Ellie to the park and wore her the hell out. I was pretty full from my Bloody Mary's and Grilled cheese that I wasn't able to stay awake much longer so I had a nice afternoon nap.
Finished up the night watching Desperate Housewives and some other crap I forget. Again, library guy texted me asking if I wanted to fuck. I again said no, I didn't feel like it. He's like well why not? I do. some come over... uMmm sorry *I* don't get to be *your* booty call. That's not how it works here. I asked him what happened to "all the other people he wanted to see"... he's like "well I thought you said sex wasn't a big deal"... it's not... but I just don't feel like it, and I haven't in about 3 weeks.. No biggie. So he says, Well, When can we??... I responded.. "If and when I feel like it".
I'm sorry, being an ass and making it seem like you wanted to *BE* with me rather than just be with me is a shady game playing move to me. Since I told him from the beginning, I wasn't that big into having much more than just sex.
He keeps asking if "he hurt me". umm no, sorry, I didnt' care that much for him to be able to hurt me. .... WTF are guys so retarded? They're so emotional out here, have so many god damn feelings. I don't give a fuck! I just want what I want is that so hard to ask?
I had such a bad headache last night i just went to bed and then woke up with it again this morning. How stupid is that? I finally got rid of it with some Punkin Coffee and 3 ibuprofens. Yay.
I believe it was Dawgfude, that ate my HOME cell phone charger on saturday. She's always had an affliction for chewing on cords. And since I have a cheap ass phone, they didn't sell the regular charger at walmart, so I had to get the wall adapter for a car charger to be able to charge at home. So now i have to remember to take the charger with me everywhere. So annoying. Probably later this week ill look for one on ebay. Grah. such a pain.
Man, lunch hour goes by so fast. I don't wanna go back to work!
I think I'll go to the gym tonight... by myself, since stupid ron goes in the mornings. Grr.
Oh well, i've got my new headphones and they kick ass so Ill just sing to myself on the treadkill (=
I finally got off my butt last night and went to the gym!
(of course, after I had eaten some ice cream with chocolate sauce)
But I did good, I walked on the treadmill for a bit, lifted some weights did a buncha crunches and the elliptical for a few. I was pooped after that so I went home and watched the Bachelorette. I can't believe she's still keeping Twilly around that has to be a nudge from the producers, because he's really just a big douche bag.
I took a super hot bath last night to relax my muscles after all that exertion! LoL.. and Kisa sat on the edge of the tub, Snatch sat on the toilet seat, and Dawgfude sat on the back of the toilet. I swear, no privacy in my house!
It Took me an hour to wake up this morning! I couldn't drag myself outta bed till the last minute at 7am. Luckily all I had to do was straighten my hair and put my makeup on So it didn't take that long. And, for once, I was ON TIME to work. w00t go me.
I also got a call this morning from Kaiser to schedule my Implanon procedure, and they said they can do it as early as tomorrow. They normally do it on your cycle, but since I'm already on BC pills they can do it whenever. Well thats what I asked like 3 months ago, and they told me no! Bastards. She said it may cause breakthrough bleeding but I said as long as it's before my birthday I'm cool with it lol. I'm hoping that my body reacts quickly to it and stops my cycle all together asap. She said it can take a "while" sometimes. I don't want to wait a while!!! Anyways, so I have to go by today to the lab and pee in a cup to make sure that I'm not already prego. I know I'm not. But they have to know too. Whateva! And my appts at 4 tomorrow. So I'm going to convince my boss to let me work through my lunch tomorrow and leave early. I'm sure he will if I ask nicely, I'll also try to get a buttload of stuff done today since he's not here and be all productive and what not and make him a happy camper.
Again, second time this week, my pants are falling off me... I'm thinking I may have just lost some weight by chance LoL... and sitting here pondering it, I'm thinking maybe it's due to being back on birth control. I know lots of people gain weight when they go on it, but I believe it's opposite for me. The only thing that gains is my boobs, not that they need to be any bigger argh!
I think, I may go to one of the group classes at 24 hours fitness tonight, the dance class that kicked my ass when I went to it back in December.
Either way, I'm glad it's happening. I've been good at eating non-crappy foods lately, mostly because I've been extremely broke. I was lucky enough to get to a food bank last night, since I don't have any money for the grocery store. And for once, they actually gave out good healthy food, ie, apples, potatoes, carrots, breads, etc.. instead of their normal pastries, cookies and crap. They did give me a coconut cream pie, but I don't like that kind, and I dropped it, so it exploded in the container.. but my roommate took it.
I've had some oatmeal for breakfast, and the best apple I've ever had after that. I have no idea what KIND of apple it was though, other than yummy!
Yeah! Go me! Ron never showed up to the gym tonight he got stuck on a late job, so I was there all by myself, But I got a lot done in just about an hour! I'm going to be feeling it tomorrow though.
It's so weird that once you start working out, you want to go more, or you automatically start eating better, but once you stop going, not so much.
I realized that on the way home, I passed by a burger king and had no appetite for anything from there.
It feels like I haven't made a post of substance in a while, but maybe it's just me.. *shrugs*
My abs.. are in so.much.pain. today. Went to the gym last night with Ron.. and when I started complaining all we ever do is arms... we moved to the AbSolo machine
Actually I've been noticing lately, that my pants are all more lose.. I'm having to wear a belt with almost all my jeans or non-work pants.. Scale wise, I've only lost "a pound or two"... but I think it's that whole building muscle crap. I wanna see more results and I know I will if I just get my butt to the gym more! But I can see more definition in my arms now and the pain in my abs is enough for me LoL.
I wish I had some money to go out and do something tonight.. but I don't.. and that sucks.. maybe I'll just go hang out with Chan.. or do some more laundry or something.. I really need to mow my lawn like SOON. Since it rained almost everyday for the last week I wasn't able to, but now it should be hot and dry for the next few days so I can get it done soon. I have to get the rest of the house cleaned up as well before we leave for our trip next week.
Hmm... there was something else I wanted to write about but I can't recall it right now.. I'm sure I will later.. when I get home and don't have a PC to use. Dangit.
