Everyone Needs a Luck Dragon

Including me! But man I was lucky yesterday. Got to school on time in the middle of a snowstorm when everyone else was late. Got a jury summons, but when I looked closer it was addressed to the old owner of my house. Found a program that will let me defer my student loans for longer. Sigh. Wahooooooooooo.

Weight wise, I've made it to the gym 3 times this week and I'm going again tonight. Then I'm going to go once this weekend. I decided that this week was about getting back to the gym, not counting everything that goes in my mouth. I have learned in the past that when I try and start both things at the same time, things go horribly wrong! So I'm letting my body get used to burning more calories during workouts and on Monday I am going to start doing the Daily Plate again.

That's all for now folks! I'm still half asleep and can't seem to make my fingers work.

Hasta la proxima,

Why 80's Music Rocks on Mondays

I think I can file this one under totally off-topic blogs. But hey, I just couldn't help it. I've been on vacation for a week (thank God for turkey!) and I needed a little inspiration to get myself back to work. And back to the gym......

So here it is. Why 80's music rocks on Monday:

1. Because who doesn't love Journey.
2. Synthesizers made the world a better place.
3. Cougar wasn't just an over-aged woman trolling for men at a bar, he was a man who wanted it to hurt so good.
4. Cartoons came to life, a-ha they did!
5. A bad hair day just wasn't possible in the 80's.
6. Peter Cetera. Who doesn't want a man to fight for their honor?
7. Music was wholesome. Rick Springfield is reminding me not to talk to strangers, especially French strangers.
8. Who doesn't love being compared to a cherry pie?
   
9. Because work truly is the Danger Zone.
   
10. Prince.

In a not so off-topic, absolutely not related to the 80's train of thought, Thanksgiving was an eating fiesta that has left me with very tight pants. They were just tight before, now they are very tight. That combined with a lovely picture of me looking like a beached whale (yes literally, peeps) that my friend took has really been an eye-opener. So I've scheduled gym time with my friend for this afternoon. And we are gonna get physical....

Tee hee...off to work!
