Catch Me Ridin Durty

hi pals!

i'm squeezin in a little post here before i head upstairs to get my reorganizista on up in my room. it for sure needs a good sweepage and i think i'll feel like a buck fifty if i can get 'er done.

remember last wednesday or don't when i was complaining slash raving about the new wednesday 6am instructor? yeah well one of the only reasons i got up this morning was because i knew i was in for a good spin class.

wanna how i felt this morning after a not so hot sleep?


that's me falling asleep in my glass of emergen-c.

hot picture no?

i can't believe i shared that.

anyways so i get to spin this morning and i go to put my water bottle on my bike. obvi some biotch doesn't know i'm a regular and she took my bike. her and her whack @$$ newbie friend.

nuh uh. homie don't play like that.

AND THEN while i'm searchin for a good working bike that will fit me in walks this new instructor. and i wish i wish i wish i had a video of her for you. she walks in with a man-deep voice instructing everyone to get on their bikes for the "ride of their lives"

i wanted to not like her. she repeated the same thing over and over and over again. and the entire class she would shout cowboy slogans like "heyyoo" and "yeeeehawww" and "owwww" and "yippeee"

i kid you not.

and then i quote she goes in her ever so ladylike man voice "yeah i don't stretch before class people so if you wanna do that well go 'head do it on your own. you just came in from the freezing cold weather and you know what happens when you put a rubber band in a freezer? it snaps"

..and then she cackles like a witch...

but 60 minutes and 10,000 cackling "yeehaws" later i felt the burn. so i thanked her for a good class and went on my way.

i still miss the instructor from last week. she promised us a "christmas ride" and i was looking forward to riding on rudolph not mr ed.

chest&tris
  • stability ball kettlebell chest press (3 sets 15, 15lb kettlebell) superseded with elbows out extension (3 sets 15, 10lb freeweights)
  • pectoral press machine (3 sets 12; 35lbs, 40lbs, 45lbs)
  • straight bar pressdown (3 sets 12, 40lbs) superseded with dips (3 sets 12, bodyweight)
  • stability ball pushups (3 sets 12, bodyweight)

speakin of ridin dirty?

i didn't shower before breakfast. so unlike me. but i was SO hungry when i got home.

bring on the goods.

same ole same creamy pumpkin oat bran with a side of lemon green tea

for those of you that are concerned i have made the switch to green tea in the morning. i wanted to kick my addiction but don't worry because this just means i get my caffeine addiction later in the day. like when i hit my 2pm wall.

added in some cranbrizzies. yum AY.

anyways after hating on the jonas brothers and doin the steve ward thang deej commanded me out of the house ever so promptly to run some errands with her.

and no. there was no time for shower. so unlike me. and also so gross? yep.

so ooot and abooot we went!

enough. xmas. shopping already.

lord & taylor, tjs, dolla store oh ya know the ujjj. anyways by the time i got home my stomach was ever so angry at me.

and so i got to work no stoppin this girl.

cottage chee + broccoli slaw + bsprouts + red peppers + yellow zukes + cedars garlic&chive humdiddy + santa barbaras peach mango salsa + tjs mini pitas = perfection.

sayin yummy equals happy tummy.

oh cornball fail

dessert was slash is a must

post picture it was perfectly slivered and sprinkled with cinnamon.

yum.

alright well i'd say its about time for a shower ya think?

i'm off to clean myself, clean my room then make some moolah.

happy christmas eve eve!


what are your xmas eve plans?
we'll be enjoying a nice takeout italian dinner at grammy's house and hang there for the night and then my brothers, sister and i exchange presents. and then i'll get my bake on and hit the hay but not before putting cookies out for santa ;)

Oh man, I HATE when people steal my bike. Get this - I used to have a bike thief in my Saturday am class so I started going extra early to snag my bike. She got the hint and started using the bike next to mine. Cut to 2 weeks ago and I walk in on the bike thief was physically SWITCHING my bike with her bike so she would have MY bike, but in her spot. CA-RAY-ZAY.

For xmas eve I am going to my aunts house to drink wine and open presents aka opening envelopes with gift cards or money in them :) Merry HO-HO!!

Erica said...

hahhahahaha. Your play by play of spin class cracked me up. I wonder what my students say about me behind my back? ;) Obviously all wonderful things....I'm sure of it, wait...maybe...nahhh. Your pear looks tasty. Mine always end up super bruised. Maybe I need to handle them with more love and care. Not sure whats up for tomorrow. Have to work, want to run, then maybe out to dinner with the man. Its the only portion of the holiday we get to spend just the two of us so...something low key and RELAXING! Merry ALMOST Christmas!

I'm glad you enjoyed the spin class, even though you didn't have your bike and the instructor sounded like a man and didn't include stretching....I don't stretch before I Workout, ever :)

We are doing Italian carry-out for Christmas, pathetic. I'm excited though! Tomorrow we are doing real home cooked Italian at Nick's mom's house. She is a darn good cook and I am pretty freaking excited!
