Count down.....

Posted by Helen in

..........til I’m off probation. Horray! Kidding. Kidding. People think I’m serious when I say that, Perhaps because I am such a serious person. Note: that was a lie. Sorry I lied. haha!
No, I’m not sorry at all! See…never serious. That way I can use it when someone asks me out and I tell them I can't. I just say....."well, it’s kinda hard when I’m on probation." It totally throws them off.

Really, though…I’m counting down the days to LA! Yes, I cleared it with my probation officer. I ALWAYS play by the rules (see note on being serious above)

I’ve been preparing for this for months basically. My walking lunge ultra mega marathon will start today .......Where am I lunging to? Do you even have to ask!!? Punxatawney, where else! Plus, I gotta swing by Doug's pad in Vegas anyways to pick up beer he owes me (I’ve been nice about it until now)...and he better have it or Ima lose it!!!!
I’ll also be lunging by Shitholesville! Just because I have to!

If I start today, which I will, I should be there in a few weeks, give or take a few weeks. Let’s break it down.

Now, one of my lunges equals about 3ft (I have short legs ok!). Since Google chooses to use kilometers and not give distances in feet, or god forbid they make it easy and use walking lunge measurements, I had to do a little math. The trip will be approximately 12, 057,086 walking lunges. Ha–cake! 57, 4527 lunges per day at the most. Now I-80….I may have to hitch rides from truckers for for a bit of that. And I don’t think I should have to pay portions tolls for lunging across either, so I will ignore those all together. Yeah, a few weeks should do it. Give or take a few weeks.

I really don't have to do this.....but I really don't like undressing at airport security!!!!

Anyways......today I did some good ol' swimming. I will go do some upper body lifting in a little bit. Damn baby all I need is a lil bit…a lil bit ‘o dis a lil bit ‘o dat…get crackin’ in the club when you hear the $h*t..drop it like it’s hot—–That song came on when I was in the car today on the way to the pool. I always get a lil bit ‘o extra spring in my pedal drumming when that comes on.

P.S. I did 6 chin ups today....no assist. :)
