Ack!!

Oy, this day! Busy, busy, busy.

I started out the day sore anyway because I went crazy last night and walked TWO MILES with Leslie Sansone--one of which was a legs toning mile which included squats and lunges. I made it through the squats but there was no way in you-know-where I was going for the lunges. Hello, decrepit knees.

Needless to say, I kicked my own butt last night and could hardly walk this morning. Even if I DID have some fan-freaking-tastic supper last night. I'll post about THAT tomorrow. Maybe. If I survive the night.

Then today has been one evil plot after another to kill me. I've been on my feet for five out of eight hours and that's not including the fifteen minutes it took us to walk across the drill field for a milk-shake from Chic-fil-A. hehehe

NOW, it's time to go home and I get to drive Daddy's redneck Ranger home because he and Mama ditched me here while they went to his doctor's appointment a half hour from here. I used to love to drive his Ranger but now it kinda sounds like how my knees would sound if anyone but me could hear them creaking and groaning. And sometimes the transmission slips. FUN. Only not.

On the flip side, I always feel sort of badass driving a manlified redneck truck. Back when I was way younger, I wanted a big 'ol truck more than anything. And I still would if gas prices didn't suck so hard these days.

Anyhow, that's me in a nutshell this wicked Thursday. Thank my glorious Father in Heaven that tomorrow is Friday! Wooo hooooooo!

JanaJanaJana... I could have told you not to try those lunges. They are EVIL on wonky knees. Those and step aerobics. I can walk up several flights of stairs no problem, but step aerobics? I don't know what it is about them that is so much harder on one's knees, but they are. Here's hoping for a GREAT Friday!

Girl, I didn't attempt the lunges. I laughed when she started demonstrating those because...yeah. Not happening. The squats and the sheer focus on the legs was what killed me. There were a few other moves in there that my weakling little leg muscles weren't used to.

I'm just now getting to a point where I can go DOWN a flight of stairs without torture but going UP is still an issue. I'm working on it, though...shin splints and all! lol

I'm Lost

Boy.  Last night was the most intense 2.5 hours of my LIFE. Well, the part of my life that I relegate to television viewing, anyway. Last night, as you may have heard, was THE END for LOST. If you haven't been watching it for the past six years, what were you doing with your life? LOL No, I know. It was one of those things you were either fully emersed in or you didn't want to expend the energy it took to follow it. Because it did take a lot of energy to follow it. And as much as I was held captivated by it, I am really too stupid to really full grasp it. No, seriously. I've read the discussion boards. I've followed other blogs about it. And I'd always be like, "Why didn't I catch that?" or "I completly missed that." My brain is merely too simple to comprehend all the little mysteries and tie-ins and connections that were hidden throughout six seasons of this show. It was no different last night. Honestly, the finale was gripping an...

Me and the boob tube

Ever met someone who is passionate about her TV shows? Well, if not, you have now. Yeah, I'm probably fairly sad with how involved I become with some shows but believe me...I know some folks who are a LOT worse than me. Just trust me on this. I have maybe a handful of shows that I watch without fail whenever they're on and set my VCR to tape if I'm out. (Yeah, I still have a VCR...and I will until they no longer make 'em) Monday night is Medium night. Tuesday night is BB6 in the summer Charmed on TNT in fall. Wednesday is Lost and Alias (in regular season anyway) Thursday night is BB6 in summer and Will and Grace in fall. Friday night sucks since they cancelled Joan of Arcadia. Saturday night is BB6 in summer and Trading Spaces. Sunday night is Desperate Housewives and The 4400 in summer. Everyday things are Gilmore Girls on ABC Family, 30 Minute Meals on Food Network and Bold and the Beautiful. Last night, of course, was BB6. Now, I'm not one to enjoy many reality ...

Ten Things That Make Me Happy Today

Image
1.) Chuck . Chuck makes me very happy. I'm still flying high from the time I spent with him last night. Seriously, it's like the second Zachary Levi walks on screen and gives that trademark smile my heart goes all gooey in my chest and my lips curve up all dreamy smile-ish and for that one hour each Monday night I'm on cloud nine. Pitiful, no? 2.) Her. 'Nuff said. 3.) My friends. All of 'em. Ms. B who I only get to see once a month and chat on the phone every few weeks. E who talks me into field trips to Starbucks so that we can blame each other for being bad. Trix who hated the way Medium ended, too. (And always sends me the awesomest handmade cards.) BFF who calls once a month to update me on the ever shifting drama of her life. (She's doing much better, by the way. Goes back to work next week.) Jen who  once--in a round about way--compared me to the awesome Pioneer Woman. (And who's love story to her fireman still gives me hope that true love real...
