Freakin' Olympic's

Whelp, as you guessed it...I am REALLY excited about the Olympic's.  I just can't get enough of it! I suppose I can recap my feeling toward the Olympic's on my days.

Friday: Opening Ceremonies!  While they got weird, I really did enjoy the first part of the history of London.  Then when the kids came out on the beds and all the jazz, I was a little confused.  And then though digital age business...not really cool.  Weirdness proceeded by the Parade of Nations.  This is something I do enjoy, however, 204 countries is a BUNCH of people to walk in and see.  While this was happening I flipped it back and forth between that and Harry Potter.  Once the US was announced we watched to the end.  LOVED the cauldron and how it was made.  Besides some Lithuanian food for dinner, I might have consumed WAY to many double stuffed oreos!  But they were sooooooooo good!

Saturday (7/28):  After getting up and visiting my parents in the morning, I headed to a friends house to help her strip some paint off a dresser I helped her paint.  I shouldn't have let her paint it, but she insisted...and then look what happened.  Not only was the whole processes extremely long and tedious, it was only 101 outside.  Needless to say, my relax day was shy of relaxing!  But got home in time to watch the USA volleyball team play, and then later that night watch some swimming, and then my favs of Kerri and Misty!  Reese was super relaxed and happy this weekend!



Sunday (7/29):  Relax day....mall day! My dear mother has asked me every weekend for the past 3 months to go shopping with her...and this weekend I finally caved.  I ended up with nothing but I got some more exercise on a rest day!  Watched SOOO much Olympic's I couldn't even tell you what I watched!

Monday (7/30):  5m W, 9m R, 5m W.  This is the same as Friday's run, where I wanted to quit so bad.  Today, I felt like I could keep going...not that I would, but it felt like a better run!  My pace got faster then my previous break into the 12 minute mile, only by 1 second, but it is better!!  Headed to the gym tonight and watching all the Olympic's that I have recorded throughout the day!  I really think that employer's should give us off these two weeks so we can support team USA!!

Until next time!! - Go USA!  Peace easy homies - Vic

People are shitty!

For starter's, I am writing this feeling very hurt, angry, vulnerable, let down, taken advantage of, disbelief, puzzled, and overall disgust for people in society!  As a small disclaimer, this has nothing to do with my readers, and my husband and I are just fine.  Also, sorry for the negative attitude in this blog, but I did this to be honest with myself and right now this is being honest with myself.

This blog is about working out. So shouldn't have to worry about other distractions, but the truth of the matter is, we don't live in a perfect bubble, and shit happens!  Shit happens to good people too! 



So Wednesday we made it to the gym.  It was about 1000 degrees inside as the ac hadn't been turned on, but we worked out anyways.  Did some curls, flies, lunges, and calf raises, and for the first time...spent some time stretching!!  Man it felt great!

Thursday: Relax day.  Ended up not being so relaxing around 830pm.  It just irritates me the degree people will go to just to make a quick buck or get a "thrill", without even thinking about how it effects the person they are taking advantage of.  No morals any more in society.  To even think back about 15 years ago, we could play in our front yard all day, and today you have to watch who is outside and monitor their behavior.  Society blows donkey chucks right now, and it is taking everything in my power to not go ape shit crazy!  But good thing we have politicians who are taking care of us....BULL SHIT!

Friday: Today was a run day, and it took everything in my power to get up and run.  Not only because it was early, but because of the events of the previous day and lack of sleep due to it.  It was 5m W, 9m R, 5m W.  I walked at a pretty good clip and I think it had to do with being sooo angry.  But when I got to the running part, about 4 minutes into I wanted to quit.  I feel like this is one of the first times I have REALLY wanted to quit.  I know it is a mental game, and running should have helped me clear my mind, but it just made me more angry.  I did finish the running part and made it home before I completely feel apart.  My only saving grace was that my dog was there and she did not leave my side, even last night when the world was fucking with me, she was right there.  Slept right by the bed, which she normally is patrolling the house.  And about the time I thought things couldn't get any worse, they did!  At this point I couldn't hold it together anymore...but after getting to work and doing what I needed to do, my mom texts with a glimmer of hope.  And as I am talking to my dad, he finds a little hope as well.  Even though this doesn't even begin to fix things, and nothing ever will, it proves that there are fucking idiots out there.

Tonight is the opening ceremonies of the Olympics!  I couldn't be more excited!!!  When I watch the Olympics, I always wonder how this one event can bring the whole world together, yet there are still countries who think it is ok to blow peoples heads off.  What god says that is ok?  But the Olympics make it like the pain, suffering, and animosity in the world despairs for 2 weeks.  Then again, why does this event make it ok to take a break....can't we all just get along and live in a world that is peaceful, and full of love instead of hate.  It makes me so sad for the next generations.  GO TEAM USA!!!

Pictures are back!

For starters...I have two pictures to add.  One is the lego's hubby and I assembly on Friday night and the other are the bacon buns mom and I made on Sunday.




Now moving on to more important things! Like working out!

So I still need to add to Monday (7/23):  We went to the gym.  I completed curls, flies, squats (ouchie), calf raises, and overhead triceps.  Really had to modified my workout due to the amount of people in the gym, especially the ones that don't understand gym etiquette....SUPER annoying.  To make matters worse, these people who don't know how the gym operates, also don't know how to properly work out!  It takes everything in my power not to laugh at them doing the most ridiculous "exercise" I have ever seen!! Sir, the only way you are able to do 125lbs pull downs is because you are doing them wrong.  Sir, you are not supposed to swing your body with your arms to help you curl your 65lbs dumbbell...it doesn't do anything!  OK, enough about that.  

After we got home dear husband wanted to eat Golden Chick for dinner.  So I go and get us 2 - 4 piece meals, with okra as the side.  When we opened the boxes, mine had about 7 pieces of chicken and okra ALL OVER the place.  The little paper bag (like what a small fry would come in) was also full of okra.  Hubby and I could have shared a box of chicken.  Neither one of us finished even half of what was in the box, but we both felt like SHIT yesterday because of it!  Damn Golden Chick...it just got added to our "You may want this, but you are going to feel bad afterwards" list of places to eat.  It's right up there with Long John Silvers and Chelinos!

Tuesday (7/24):  As previously stated, we felt like shit, I took an hour and half nap and didn't go to the gym.  It was a rest day from running, so it all seemed ok!

Wednesday (7/25):  Run day...5m W, 8m R, 5m W.  Man today was great!  As I was walking the first 5 m, I noticed the beautiful colors that the sun was bouncing off the clouds.  It was so nice to run with that canvas painted.  Got to the 8m R part, and felt great.  Every small goal I wanted to hit while running, I did.  Like it should, it is starting to get hard.  But today I kicked its ass!  Also, according to my little tracker, I busted into the 12 minute range for a mile pace!!  BIG DEAL ALERT!  I know I am not running a mile, or for 12 minutes yet, but it still feels good to know that I am getting back to wear I used to be, even if it still includes walking.

This evening, we are going to the gym.  Not 100% sure yet what I am going to do, but whatever it is, I am sure to kick its ass as well!

So until next time I decide to blog...Peace out homies! -Vic

Had a Drunk Moment!

I have been really bad at blogging lately.  I think it has to do with sheer laziness at night!  So let's catch up!

Friday (7/20):  It was a run day.  5m W, 7m R, 5m W.  I thought it would be smart to check the weather before I left, not sure why, but at 6:30 in the AM, it was already 85 degrees!  Totally glad that I did it then, but DAMN that's too hot for 6:30!  But I did see 3 other people out and about in the neighborhood, which pushes me for about 30 seconds when I see them!  This run was ok.  I made it to the railroad tracks and back, but needed an extra 30 seconds to make it all the way home.  Not to shabby!  Especially after getting back into the gym for the first time in a while.  


Friday was all around a pretty crappy day of eating.  Convinced a JH to eat Chick-fil-a for lunch and then hubby wanted pizza for dinner.  So we ate pizza, put together Lego's and watched scrubs!  A nice way to stay out of the heat!


Saturday (7/21):  Relax day!  So I didn't run, but we cleaned our house REALLY well and did the laundry.  Hubbster washed his car at like 3:30, as I choose to try to finish watching Something Borrowed.  We had a wedding reception to attend for one of my dear friends who got married in Mexico last month.  D wanted to drive his car, which meant I got to drink!!  And drinking is what I did, as well as eating 3 pieces of cake.  I would like to say that was not my finest moment of the night, but it wasn't!  After about 3 Margarita's I thought I needed to dance, and ran out the dance floor in my 3 1/2 inch heels, which are SOOOO cute but VERY impractical and hurty for me, to the Bride and wiped out.  I tried to bring the Bride down with me, but she had balance..weird! I didn't really think I was going to hurt after that, but Sunday night and Monday morning I am feeling it!  Needless to say, I had a lot of fun!!

Sunday (7/22):  Again, another Relax day!  But my mom came over to make some traditional Lithuanian food!! YUM!!  We made bacon buns and basically ravioli's! They were soo yummy and I ate way to many, of both!  (I would like to add a picture, but it isn't working with me right now!)

After this long process of all day cooking/baking, I wanted to watch Emily choose Arie on the bacherolette.  But that wasn't the case.  Oh well, I liked One F Jef too, and I think they are cute together.



Monday (7/23):  Monday, BOO!  5m W, 7m R, 5m W.  Totally sucked today.  It was just bad all around.  Not totally what the deal was, I felt mentally ok about this run, but it wasn't good.  I made it to the tracks and back but needed an extra 45 seconds.  Not sure if it was the heat, 80 when I got back, or how hot my t-shirt was and I couldn't cool off.  It just wasn't good!  But today we are going to try to go to the gym!  So I can make up for it in there.

Until next time homies- Vic

Super Sore Must Mean Working Hard

A little behind, but have done a BUNCH of working out since the last post.  So, lets start there...

Tuesday (7/17):  Went to the gym and started a semi full body work out.  Curls, flies, pull downs, and leg lifts.  Not a great workout, but a great introduction back into the gym.  We also went without our water, which normally wouldn't be a problem, but the homeowner didn't have the garage open to get our water out of there fridge that he provides us.  And then to top it off the A/C wasn't on in the gym so it was BLASTED hot.  We also brought Reese pup and she was miserable.  But we did workout and then come home and made chicken bake thingy...DELICIOUS!



AGT....TERRIBLE talent.  Nothing too standout.


Wednesday (7/18): Running day.  It was a little different 4 m R, 5 m W, 4 m R, 5m W.  Started straight out the door, up a hill, and then passed out...ok that didn't happen, but it would have made for a good story.  I have about three courses that I like to run in the neighborhood. Today, I got to furthest course today!  Made it to the railroads track and back in 16 mins!!!  That is a mile and half. Whoop Whoop!

Then I went to work...which really sucked!  Long day of actually working!

Got home, and convinced Hubby to go to the gym!  Did that same workout again today, but just trying to get my body back into the rhythm.

Totally trying something, and it seems to be working....Instead of having Ben & Jerry's Ice cream and eat 750661345106 calories, I got some Jolly Ranchers.  Something that will last a while and give me the sweet that I am looking for.  I can eat 3 for 70 calories.  So far I have had 1, and seem just fine!  It craved my sweet tooth, and I don't feel like I binged on Ice Cream!



Tomorrow is a relax day, so I am taking full advantage.  Going to get a pedicure!!  So need it!

Goal Time!

Well, since it is Tuesday, I need to blog.  I think I am just going to count the weekend outs for blogging.  It's just not going to happen!  And yes, I should have blogged yesterday, but well...I have no reason.  Sheer laziness!

So this weekend was to relax = DONE!  Even included a free chair massage, and pending my mother's results of a full hour massage this weekend, I might be enjoying one myself.  But to be fair, Friday night I mowed the yards and Sunday really cleaned the house, so I was burning some calories.



Monday (7/16):  5m W, 6m R, 5m W.  We went to the gym and I ran through that neighborhood.  I somewhat like running there better because I know the distance.  Just like last time I ran there, my 5 minute walk lead me to a middle of a hill to start my running.  This really isn't ideal, but I suck it up only to realize that I am running against the wind, uphill = super sucky.  On the positive side of this workout, for the first time I ran over half a mile in the 6 minutes of running.  This shouldn't be a huge accomplishment (and this is what pushes me) as I used to a run a mile in 7 minutes, but then again, this is why I am starting out on a couch to 5k program. 


Not sure if I have stated my goal with my blog peeps, but I have finally come up with a lofty, yet attainable goal.  I want to run the Race for the Cure (its a 5k) in October, and be able to not only run the whole race, but to make it in decent time.  My friend Lash has agreed to run it with me, so now I have accountability.  The other part of the goal is to be able to run with Lash.  She runs frequently and for long distances for a long time.  One time she mentioned that she went for a 40 minute run, and I would like to be able to do that with her.  I also don't think she knows I stalked her that much :o), or that time really stuck with me.

Tuesday (7/17): Today is a rest day.  Not 100% sure if we are going to the gym today, but I am going to start lifting again to get a full body workout going on.  Nothing to major, but something to gain some muscle and make my body taught.  Also, it burns a shit ton of calories!!

I know the day isn't over, but I also know there are some people out there (coughJHcough) that get angry that I don't blog as often as I should.  So here is your post for the day!

DAMNIT GALE!!!

First, finished Mockingjay today!!!  I was totally hoping that Gale would prevail at the end, but naturally the broken, cry baby Peeta had to win Katniss.  What totally shocked how it ended, but glad to see good prevail!!

Next on the list, the workout!
5m W, 5m R, 5m W.  Got up again in the morning to run, which was good but horrible at the same time.  I think the morning because there is less traffic, which mean less chance of dying, and the annoying dogs are to tired to bark at me, or aren't out yet.  But really it is generally cooler, except this morning.  Got back and checked the weather...73 degrees (nice), slight breeze (a littler more would be nice, but can't overall complain), 74% humidty = DEAD Vic!  Totally left like I was running in soup and had a hard time breathing.  This was the first time that I have really had a hard time with the running part at the end.  I am not sure if it was because of the soupiness or the actual run, but I did finish it and didn't let myself quit.

Katniss, Peeta, & Gale

Apparently I haven't been doing a good job blogging the past couple of days.  And apparently these people don't think I have a life...well, ok..lets get real, I don't.  I have just been really lazy and haven't even been on my computer when I get home.


Today's workout is to rest.  So I will do that.


So I started the Hunger Games way back when it was all popular to read them, and no one had even heard of 50 Shades of Mr. Sex Machine (Haven't read, just what I heard), but I never finished the series.  I still had the last one, Mockingjay, to read.  For some reason I had a really hard time getting into the book, and started reading it twice but never made it past the second chapter.  Even took the book to Maui and didn't even crack it once.  But I am happy to report that I have made it way further then the second chapter.  I am close to being done, and should finish tomorrow.


That's about all I got!

Whoopsie

Well...not entirely a whoopsie, but I didn't blog yesterday.  I just didn't feel like it at all.  Didn't even open my computer last night.  Needless to say I have a lot to catch up on, especially since I have watched all my shows this week, except Keeping up with the Kardashians.  I have to really watch that when the hubby isn't home.

First and foremost, the reason of the blogging! Yesterday was a rest day, and I definitely did that too.  Took an hour long nap when I got home from work!  Today, back to the grind, was 5m W, 4m R, 5m W.  Hubby had to get up early today to go to work :o), so when his alarm went off this morning at 6:35 I got up with him and went outside.  Even though we have been having cooler weather, the humidity has been killer, however this morning was REALLY nice.  It was even cooler, with a slight breeze and the not so hot yet sun beaming.  I even saw 2 other people exercising, which is slightly a big deal...first, that is good for the area I am in, plus, I never see anyone out!!  Pleasant surprise.  So I did my running, did 1.01 miles and burned 124 calories!  I think I might start getting up that early to go do my exercising.  I have been very alert today and not even tired.  



Now to discuss the shows...Oh wait I can't!  One JH hasn't watch the bacholerette and she will want to know who went home.  So I won't provide that information yet! Then the other JH didn't watch AGT or Love in the Wild!  What's with these people?!?!  They want me to blog, yet I can't spill my deepest darkest secrets because they haven't watched the shows!!!!

This afternoon I get to spend some quality time at the Court House to get a certified copy of my marriage license. Then off, hopefully, to see a friend, then off to a wonderful BUENO date with my maid of honor!!

Sorry for the lack of pictures, being lazy makes me not do anything!

Until next time! -Vic

Blah...

Monday....should be enough to explain a day!  It's kinda odd to think a noun can describe a day.  Think about it, even if it was Wednesday, and I said that my day was like Monday, EVERYONE would know exactly what you meant.  Today at work, I actually worked in the morning...all morning LONG! But better today then Friday I guess...I would hate to say my Friday was like Monday.

In today's workout I am doing the normal running/walking that I started last week, but today I am adding 30 jumping jacks and 10 crunches.  The running today is 5m W, 3m R, 5m W.  Hubby says we are going to the gym when I get off, :o)!! Makes me happy that he is actually going to start working out again too.


Today's results: 1.02 mile, 125 cals, 5w, 3j, 5w.  It was very soupy out while running, would have rather it been raining, but I still did it.  It was I know a mile and I walked an extra 1 1/2 minutes to finish the mile, but also to get back to my starting point.  Since we went to the gym, I wasn't sure how long it would take me to do the full mile, but I pushed really hard to do it in the allotted 13 minutes.  Now that is a good goal to try and reach, except next time it is 5,4,5.  I also did the 30 JJ and 10 crunches...not to terribly hard, but just something good to add.

Tonight is when all the shows start again, so I don't know if we will actually watch any tonight, or if we will watch more Scrubs.  But, JH's listen up, I have started reading Mockingjay again...hopefully I can power through it and finish it so we can discuss what actually happens in the Hunger Games!!

Lazy...

So this weekend was nothing but laziness.  Saturday we went to the outlet mall, got nothing to awesome except some running shorts.  You know so I can keep up my working out!!

There were no work outs this weekend. It was all to relax, and of course I did a damn good job at it.  Sunday, I didn't even put a bra on...considering that a GREAT day!  Needless to say I didn't go outside!

Friday I did make a batch of chocolate chip cookies and butterscotch cookies...


Then I did work on a new project that Lash wanted me to make for her photography business.  My first attempt at it was terrible.  It looked more like a slipper....

But then, I made a new one this morning and it looks like it might actually hold a baby in it.



But since making those things I have sat and watched Harry Potter and Scrubs all day.

JH...I finally watched Love in the Wild....Can't agree with you more about Ali now.  She drove me up the wall in this episode.  Glad that she and Jesse are gone, and if they would have done what was best last week, it wouldn't have been a big shocker that 4 peeps went home!  Can't wait to see what happens next!!

This is kind of a boring post, but I was kind of a boring person this weekend...and I am OK with that!

Catch y'all tomorrows! -Vic

Something creative

It's just one of those days. Woke up, wanted to go back to bed, let the dog, wanted to go back to bed, ate breakfast, showered, wished I was still in bed, went to work to find actual work to do. All round a pretty lousy day. Only plus side it's Friday. And I did get to come home early...but the phone has to follow me. So I come home to try to nap for an hour, the damn phone goes off 20 mins into the nap. Now, with 20 minutes still left to nap, I am blogging. And to make it worse, I am on my phone blogging.👎 And of course, I put my phone down to try to catch the last 20 minutes and my phone goes off again...this time it was a text from a friend who is working out of the office today and I feel terrible for her. So I talked to her..


In the workout today it is 5 w, 3 j, 5 w.  I totally had every intention of putting this run off until tomorrow morning due to the heat and shear laziness.   But after making cookies, yep home made cookies, I put dinner in the oven and hit the pavement.  Results were good...went .92, at a pace of 14.04, which is even down from Wednesday, and apparently burned 113 calories.  Even though I have only been at this program for a week, I have noticed improvements with my stamina.  Every day I have walked further in my first 5 minute walk!  

Going to chillax the rest of the evening.  No idea what plans are for this weekend, but hopefully we will do something exciting!

Keep it real! -Vic

I thought today was Saturday

Holidays...they are my list of things that shouldn't take place in the middle of the week with only one day off.  I woke up today, perplexed on why my alarm was going off.  It is kinda a bad way to start a Thursday thinking its Saturday.  Enough about that.  Lies...one more thing...I had dinner plans that I made with one of my best friends for tonight, but because the day off really made our heads dizzy we both completely forgot!  I blame America's birthday!  Ok that is a bit much, but for real makers of days off...lets fix this problem!

Last night, Hubby, doggie, and I went to watch the firework show at the local park.  They were a lot better then I was expecting, especially after watching the 35 minute extravaganza that Macy's displayed in New York City.  What was also really cool was the the full moon was rising right as the fire works started going off.   Here is a picture for the awesomeness. 
Just returned from lunch at work, to find our niece wanting to take my job from me.  She wants to learn what I do.  Good thing she is only 7 and conceded to some ice cream instead of teaching her how to do my job.  It was a little touch and go there for a few minutes on whether I needed to get a new job!


Today's workout is all about Relaxing and that is exactly what I am going to do!  Relax!!  But I am actually enjoying my program so far, and yes it's been 4 days, but I haven't once wanted to quit!  The weather also might be playing a big factor.  It hasn't been sooo terribly hot that I am going to pass out after being out for 3 seconds!  I have also found a little 20 day program of different exercises to do on top of my running.  I am going to start this on Monday, not to delay the starting process, but because both of the programs will be on day 1, and I need to keep things simple in my life!  And lets get real, my OCD makes me have things start on the same day!


WOW...Dinner tonight was a bit redonk!  We had our version of Surf and Turf with steaks and crabs...

Spoiler for a JH...America's Got Talent....Totally picked who I thought.  Edon, The painter guy, the brothers, and the father/daughter duo.  Good Job America for not picking terrible people to go through.  There is hope this season.

I am totally going to be a worthless shit the rest of the right...ate WAY to much, but that's America for you!

Keep it real peeps! - Vic

Happy Burfday America!

Happy 4th of July!!!  What an awesome holiday!  Love being an American and being free! Thank you to all the men and women that serve our county to keep me free.  You allow me to blog about whatever the hell I want!!


You know what is more annoying then group messages with people you don't know...ones that just state what the day is.  Please don't ever text me at 9 in the morning when I clearly know why my ass is still in bed sleeping and not at work...oh and to spice it up don't group text me with people I don't know so that I can get the same response from BUNCHES of people.  I know what today, I wasn't born yesterday, and I surely don't need a reminder at 9 in the morning people!  And to top it off, it's not like this holiday landed on a Monday or Friday...ITS WEDNESDAY!!! Clearly it wasn't a mistake not to wake up by an annoying sound.  So after that rude awaking, I slept til 10!  Got up, ate some healthy brown sugar cinnamon pop tarts, and then got into action.


Workout:
I actually did what I was suppose to do! Walk 5 mins, Jog 2 mins, Walk 5 mins.  It was a a bit of a struggle at the beginning because my legs were sore, but I sucked it up and did it!  I burned 104 calories and went .82  of a mile...now these numbers I know aren't correct, only because I know 1 mile burns 100 calories, and I know it didn't go a mile.  The area that I am currently running is about 3/4 of a mile, so it is a little off, but it is at least some numbers to keep in mind.
After working out, I pulled out the lawn mower and mowed our front yard...Super pain in the ass. Our front yard is ONLY weeds and clogs the shit out of my mower.  But my wonderful husband finally woke  up, and after vacuuming, came out and help with all the damn clippings.  You are probably thinking, "Oh that bitch should have bagged that shit up" well guess what...I DID!  I might have waited to long to mow, but oh well!  It's done and only took an hour to make it look decent...oh ya that was JUST the front yard!  But we didn't even want to tackle the backyard...mainly because it isn't bad.

To celebrate our countries birthday we are going to sit on our asses like true American fashion.


OMG...totally forgot about my dinner date last night with the girls.  Totally love those girls and spent 3 hours chatting about nothing really too important but it felt like we were there for like 30 mins. We have already planned our next date..and we might try to have a "book club" problem is we are all reading something differnet!!!


Back to celebrating our countries birthday...Eat mexican, Check; watch scrubs, check; take a hour long nap, check; go watch fireworks (well add some awesome photos tomorrow), check!  Did anyone else watch the Macy's 4th of July fireworks from New York??  We were just killing time before we went to the Walmart parking lot to watch our firework show, just now is going to be a huge disappointment after watching the New York show.  They had to have a 35 minute show...which was ridiculous!  Thanks Macy's for setting a super high standard for the rest of us here central America to put on a show that is not even 1/16th of what you just did! It was on overall get day off to celebrate our nations birthday!  Next year though, lets try to plan this day where we get an extra day off too...just an idea!  


Side note...here is my completely old lady project!
I am a little behind in my shows...like Love in the Wild and America's Got Talent, but I will catch up and discuss my feelings towards them!

4th of July Eve.

First thing on the Agenda today...The Bachelorette...don't worry I am blogging as I am watching so I don't forget anything.


Chris...WOW!  Lame.  His dad had some great things to say about what a marriage is about. But lets discuss how awkward that family dinner was with everyone sitting on the same side of the table with a GIANT floral arrangement.  Totally feel he is fake...waiting to tell her you love her, ONLY because your dad says that she is falling in love with him...LAME, Grow some balls dude!


One F Jef...Love that he had such a cute little date set up on his AWESOME land!!  Jef's little thing he read/wrote was so sweet.  I feel he is a nice and sincere guy! 

Arie...seriously a cute family!  His mom is so sweet!  OK, I am ready for the season to end so that Arie and Emily can get married!  The End!


Sean...Love those dogs.  He looks like Jesse from Love in the wild, which I hate that guy, so the chance Sean has now to finish winning me over are ridiculously low..Good Luck buddy.

Sean was clearly the better choice to keep then Chris.  I mean Chris is a stage 9 clinger, and looks like an uber creeper!! Plus he is a cry baby!!! Good choice Emily, however you should have gotten rid of Sean too!

Next order of business..yesterday I talked about how the ladies in the office.  As a little update, they shall be referred to a the Jealous Hoes (JH) from now on!  Now that we got that cleared up moving on...

Well today at work...yep a sucker like me has to work on days like these, a client really irritated the shit out of me.  Don't these people know I just answer the phone and screen calls.  I can't do anything important, I didn't go to school for this shit, nor..ESPECIALLY NOR, get paid enough to talk to your ass EVERYDAY!  It's really sad when someone can ruin your 4th of July Eve day!  HOW RUDE!

Tonight I am going out with my homies Lash and Nimzypoo.  We about to get our sushi on!

Oh ya the whole reason for the season...working out. The calendar says "Relax" and so relaxing is what I am going to do!  Easy enough for me to stick to days like these!

Keep it real America! -Vic

Day One.

Well here I am...blogging away about what is "going on" in my life.  Honestly, that feels a bit personal..but what the hell.  I thought peer pressure went away with age, but that's a big fat lie!   Momma's shouldn't tell you shit like that to make your "feelings" feel better...by the way, where are my feelers?

OK..back on task.  The main reason for this blog was to track my workouts, and make sure I am not cheating.  Well I am happy to say that today was the first day of a running program that I am doing.  It's called "couch to 5k", but I am not planning on running a 5k, just needed something that would start me off slow enough back into running that I don't want to quit immediately.  Today's thing was to Walk 5 mins, Jog 2 mins, Walk 5 mins...today I did 5 min walk, 3 min jog, 4 min walk.  I just felt really good running that 2 mins, that I kept running to 3, but with my educational background I knew not to over do it.  The other probably main reason was that there were 2 creepers that were half clothed walking down the street that I didn't want to walk by.  Lame, but it kept me going!

Now to things that REALLY matter:  After much discussing with the lovely ladies at work, Amy D & Martinez, I have decided to chop off my hair.  Peer pressure was at an all time high today as I was leaving to cut my hair chin length, and while that it something I might be able to do, I don't have the balls yet to do it.  I will post a picture either when I get my hairs cut or whenever I figure out how to work this damn thing!

Next current event...I am almost done with my old lady project.  Hoping to finish tonight, and will post pictures, again pending the earlier comment.



Now I am going to go to Target...smelly and all from running...to find some cute outfits and shoes!


So excited tomorrow to post about The Bachelorette!

Peace out homies! -Mrs. Dillon

What am I doing....

Exactly!  What am I doing blogging?  I have never had any desire to do this, until my friend Amy D talked me into it.  She told me that it helps her stay true to working out since she has to blog about what she did, and that is some wicked motivation to me.  Having to tell someone what I did/ate makes me think twice about cheating!  It is also to voice my "always right" opinion about current events such as The Bachelor/
Bachelorette, Love in the Wild (guilty), the Olympics (SUPER EXCITED), and such things like that.  I also have embraced my old lady and enjoy to crochet.  My latest project is almost done so I will post pictures of that when I am done.

A little about myself,  a mosquitoe just landed on my hand and now it itch's like hell, son of a bitch!  Back to me, I just got married almost 2 months ago to Mr. Dillon!  We have a wonderful, almost 9 year old, German Shepard named Reese.
