Another day is behind me! HOrray! Ok, I’ll stop there with the annoying rhyming crap. I’m just a white girl….not a rapper like I am in my dreams…and when drinking. And occasionally in church. Ok, so I didn’t mention this the other day for fear of sounding like a “weirdo”—ha–but I searched high and low for some stinking snow boots. Snow boots…it’s winter, there is snow…this sounds like an easy task. Well, apparently it’s a surprise to everyone besides myself that a snow flake or two may fall in the wintertime in this part of Canada. I went to five places looking and I’m not counting the one place that actually did have two pair….conveniently sized 6 and 12…don’t get me started on that…
So I had to go to Columbia today anyways so I figured I’d check there. To my disbelief, they actually had the boots I was looking for. In normal sizes, too! So….I kinda killed two birds with one stone in that little trip, cause I was so excited to try em out in the snow. Haaha! Take that stupid snow!! Stay the hell outta my pant legs!!! Small victories….me, one. Snow, zero.
But Man, it was super cold today...... Single digits. Once upon a time approximately 2 weeks ago I had some bangin’ mittens. They were lovely, all black and sock puppet-like. The cool thing was they were gloves halfway (to about mid-finger), then had the mitten part you could flip over your fingers for the conversion!! The thumb even had it’s own flapper thing. Sometimes you need those fingers free. I, however, should wear them year-round while driving b/c I have a "flippin" road rage problem, if you catch my drift!! Wear mittens, problem solved. Anyways, I left my glove/mittens somewhere about 2 weeks ago. Of course someone took them I am sure of it…they were totally cool. I’ve been mourning their loss ever since and have been wearing my other gloves despite the fact they don’t match anything!! So I was driving, had my phone plugged in….I’m freezing…I’m trying to jam out. I go to make a call….Sorry, folks…You can’t do that with gloves on. I tried more than once. The glove-slash-mittens were awesome b/c I could have my thumb flapper up and that would leave me with 1/2 an exposed thumb to do the touch thing on my touch phone. Stupid gloves!! No way was I taking off the whole glove…It was FREEZING!!! I am happy to report that the tongue does almost as good a job as a thumb!! That is right…..YES! I! DID! It was just a natural instinct really, I didn’t think of the trizillion germs on it until after the fact. Making important phone calls cannot be interrupted by the bitter cold…not if I have anything to say about it!I stopped into my fitness equiptment store.....been window shopping for a new treadmill.....I ended up there for an hour. Yes...cause they had this bangin thing called the Absolo. Oh, man that thing is like an arcade basketball game kind of. Here’s a pic…..http://www.absolo.com/. I just did like 10 sets, you know…just to try it. I rocked at it!! I kept thinking I was winning a lot of tickets and could maybe go buy a nice protein bar or something…..but no. No tickets pop out of anywhere! I checked. But abs are definately done for the day! Otherwise, I had an awesome Leg/back workout today. Can't wait to work on some arms again....the veins in my hands/forearms have always shown pretty well—just like my grandma's did..... but I’ve been shooting to see one in my upper arm...…just haven’t been able to get my arms lean enough. I’ve been wanting it for years!!! Well, the past week or two I’ve thought maybe I’ve seen it…but wasn’t sure. So, basically I stand there and when I think I see it I’m like “OMG…is that it? I don’t know. I think so. Yep…that’s it.” then I start turning around at different angles to see if it’s maybe just a shadow or something. Then I try to feel it. I look like a total weirdo I’m sure. The last few times I haven’t really seen anyone I’ve known too well to ask them if they can see it too. I’ve decided that next time I don’t care if I know anyone or not….I’m asking the first person I see…”hey, excuse me…yeah, you…can you come over here and stand right about THERE…I’m gonna curl this bar and you tell me if you can see this vein pop out a little, ok? Thanks.” ….it’s sooo annoying when you wanna ask someone whether or not they can see your damn vein in your arm and they aren’t there!!! bummer. Anyways…I’m looking to lean out my arms more......
....I also had to switch activities up as my work/weekend schedule has been busy and all over the map........so back on track starting Monday....
