Six Days of Bliss

I will be off from work for the next six days. I'm so excited because I just worked a long stretch of days to get here. It is nice to just rest. I've scheduled nothing but I am up for anything. I want to be spontaneous and available. Here is a general idea of some things I may be participating in.

-Cleaning and laundry
-Hang out with my hubby
-Spend time with my family
-Catch up with friends
-Head up to Universal to buy some tickets at Hard Rock
-Sleep a lot
-Go get a ManPed (what my sister's and I call Manicure/Pedicures)
-See a movie with my mother-in-law
-Contact some of my clients (my freelance work)
-Go to the Yves Saint Laurent company warehouse and trade some labor to get new FREE makeup (I love my boss... she hooks me up!)
-Set up a photo shoot to update my portfolio
-Finish reading Mark, move on to Luke in my bible... reading in general
-Go to church on Sunday (I'm so excited about the new series, "Dirty Little Secrets")and have lunch with my FOUR friends that will be coming for the first time!
-Watch some Tyler Perry/Madea stuff... the best plays and movies ever!
-Sleep a lot
-Update my facebook
-Blog
-Surround myself with positive, uplifting people, things, and activities
-Visit my friend Miss Amy
-Sleep a lot
-Force myself into the gym
-Look into trading in my car if I can get a deal
-Strategize my future goals
-Love my time and enjoy every minute
-The thing I'm most excited about... CU at C3!

I'm ready... let the fun begin. I just hope it doesn't fly by too quickly!

Confessions of a Couch Potato...

So, I just finished my work-out on the elliptical machine - and I use the term work-out very loosely and relatively speaking. When I reached the point of a near-death experience, I asked my trainer/husband how long it had been and he replied, "two and a half minutes" (he could've at least rounded it up!), Then, I noticed I had burned about 30 calories. I thought this was pretty good - so I asked how that would translate - (because I'm rationalizing that it's not about how long, but about how many calories). So Byron answers, "Well, that's about half a glass of Perrier". Which, by the way, made me have to get off the stupid thing and get a glass of Perrier! I read something about how you have to stay hydrated when you're stressed - and I'm definitely stressed!

I think I'm gonna throw-up - I wonder how many calories that would burn? - Oh great, now exercising has given me an eating disorder. I think I should stop the madness and go watch re-runs of "The Biggest Loser"! Also, I feel a virus coming on because Byron mentioned something about tomorrow including the Bowflex...I think I'm gonna go take my temperature (I just want to be safe). ...Oh the humanity! Peace.

Turning Leaves

Today is the day. I'm going to exercise. I've got to start if I'm gonna be buff by 40. So, although I'm sure blogging must burn some calories (have you read my blogs? I mean, SERIOUSLY!), I'm gonna have to get with it - the rest of you are putting me to shame - In fact, I'm filled with such a sense of self-loathing at my complete lack of exercise that I think I need to go to bed...

When you see me ask me if I've kept my word and turned over a new leaf - then I'll give you a dirty look and be tempted to lie - man, I'm a horrible example! MY BODY IS A TEMPLE!!! Now I really feel bad - where are my twinkies! JUST KIDDING. Peace.
