bored in the barrel

At least, when it comes to looks.
This is about being able to run a mile. (did I say that?) About playing a better game of tennis. About shoulders that don’t suck and benching more than I weigh. About balancing one legged on a 4-pound medicine ball. About being able to [...]

So, my mom calls to ask if I’m going to the reunion in august (apparently the 6th, tho this is the first I’ve heard a solid date for the damned thing… go fig) and I say, quite simply, NO. The why? Because I have no money and hate travel.
UGH! You [...]

Now… I don’t run. I sprint, but I don’t “run”. In addition to the boringness involved in running… I’m not much of an endurance type of person. I excell at explosiveness, perhaps because that’s the way I train… but I don’t feel the need to be a runner.
That’s not really my point [...]

Another reason I need a camera:
Saw a sticker on a car door (window) at the grocery… NC State MBA. Such a pointless and silly thing. And… well… there’s my opinion of state and all…. (Otto will get this at least)
snikker

So, between the conversation going on today at ftbm and the few convos with Otto here and there… I’ve been thinking. Given the opportunity, who would I do?
In my personal life… like people I actually know… I’d have to say prolly noone. I mean, part of it is that I don’t really know [...]

Sheepskin condoms — it’s wrong to fuck a sheep, but if you kill it, take out its intestine, and fuck a human through the sheep, well then that’s ok!

Dude… what the fuck?

I hit that spot. I fucking want it. Bad.
It’s been a bit. I say I don’t like cardio… but that’s not really true. I don’t like cardio when I am unfit. And…
This has been a little bit in coming. It’s taken about a week or so to get to [...]

So it has occurred to me what, in part, my problem is. With this whole “unattainable ideal of perfection” thing when it comes to my body.
If I wanna look at an average level of attractivness in a chick, I can just stare in the mirror. As such, I only tend to find chicks [...]

Stargate SG-1 “Evolution pt2″ (season 7, if anyone is interested)

There are things I did and days I was under maintanence (and clean) not in there, since if I don’t put something in right away, I tend to forget about it. But, between 6/28 to 7/7 I did take off some time since Otto was in San Fran for part of that, and I [...]

ugh. So, I’m not thrilled about cardio, and I despise rehab, and every time I grab the rope I’m reminded of how inflexible I’ve let myself become.
I’m trying to get in some rope or yoga in daily, and I’m succeeding about 1/2 the time, maybe a bit less.
Rehab… uh… I’m shutting up and pleading [...]

As written, for the most part… and starting today. (supersets, 8-12 reps, 2 or 3 sets depending on ex)

Bench Press
One Arm Row (can’t do cable row without attachment, and I think I may change it to 1arm 1 leg row in future)
Lat Pulldown
DB Shoulder Press (cannot handle bar with shoulders, doing very low weight)
Skullcrushers
Preacher [...]

odder than odd.

(had a 2 week break in there) total of [...]

ok. I am very happy at the moment. I finally got my hands on the MailOrder Bitch songs we’d lost a yearish ago because the rio crashed. I happen to really like those songs, and was plenty bummed that everything that was lost I’d been able to find except that. I [...]

So, the way I have it I only have 3 classes this coming semester for 10 credit hours. All on campus, and all requiring a fair amount of class time. To fill a natural science req I’m taking Geology. I’d like to take Astronomy, but the only one offered is not a [...]

I’ll have to try and suffer thru that movie now. Because not only was there an entire South Park episode reference to it, but the funniest part of Shark Tale had it (not to mention Robot Chicken…). I’ll have to say that the shrimp are to this movie what the Squirrel was to [...]

Because of moments like this:
Driving down 64 (heading west, toward home) and passing a semi. Attached to the underside of his trailer, between the front and back wheels…
……..
……..
…A rubber chicken.
It BEGGED me to take a snapshot, but alas, I have no little pocket take-it-everywhere-with-me camera.
Between that and the “We hang local artists” sign….
Man…..
I [...]

It’s the lateral raises and reverse fly. That’s what’s doing it to me. Which means I shouldn’t have been skipping all my rehab these past few months. I’ve been somewhat consistant on the external rotations, even tho I can’t seem to do more than 2 with the band doubled up, but I’ve [...]

I’m really not looking foreward to TAP today. It sucks that the first 2 phases are fullbody workouts. It’s a bit annoying, I never feel like I really recover. My shoulder hurts for reasons unknown, and my hammies hurt for reasons known. And I’m stuck with another couple circuits of TAP, [...]
