So what, so I've got a smile on....

But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don't believe me
When I say I've got it down

Everybody is just a stranger but
That's the danger in going my own way
I guess it's the price I have to pay
Still 'everything happens for a reason'
Is no reason not to ask myself

Am I living it right?

But things get so crazy living life is hard to do....

And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew, That some day it would bring me back to you.....


Probably my most favorite of all Maroon 5 songs. Just feels like my life right now.

Only thing is - for as busy as I feel - and at times, overwhelmed - I am still kind of not sure why.

I feel pretty good about a lot of things right now:

My Workouts are going well. I've upped them on a few levels. I'm doing pushups and crunches more effectively. I've basically succumbed to the idea that I want to just be healthy and strong - strong mainly and then the weight will deal with itself. I find I get too wrapped up in a number on my clothes or even weight (even though I dont weigh myself ever). I'm also incorporating more into my workouts - I'll swim and bike or bike then run - or run then bike - and all those other combinations. Unfortunately, I stayed late at work today - so I am not getting in one of those workouts - which is probably fine - I've been really tired lately anyway.

Job situation looks pretty good too. I am gearing up for a 2 week shoot that should be pretty awesome. I'm looking forward to something different.

Travelling more was one of my biggest new year's resolutions. I have actually gone somewhere, with the exception of January (unless you count being in Philly), every month this year and it only gets better. After my 2 week shoot I'll be going to New Orleans for the weekend. I've just been invited back to Vegas with some friends for September. I'm planning a trip to europe or australia in august and home to philly in august for kristie's wedding. I was thinking about visiting kelly in May for her bday. So good on that front.

Monetarily speaking, I'm doin' pretty good. I'm getting my taxes done Friday morning - so hopefully that'll go well. Not sure how much that'll amount to but we'll see. I have a pretty good savings going though. Hopefully I can make more this year than last year. ::fingers crossed:: albeit, it wouldn't be difficult to make more..:-p

Personally speaking - I am kind of not the greatest but am putting up a good front so most people don't know it. It's ok - I'm fine. I'm just trying to do things to keep my mind adjusted elsewhere.

Anywho - I'm outta here.

My Nerdiness Reigns Supreme!

Hokay - major XF fan - if you are not - don't click here!!!!

OMG you guys! OMG! YAY:-) Happy times:-)

Anywho - back to reality. Currently "aunt flow" is in town - definitely not smile times for me. meh. I hateses when she comes to visit - but alas, an inevitable factor in being a woman. The monthly reminder that "haha!" no matter how much you work out - you still have a week where you will be mad because you have to sit at home with a heating pad on your back and get all emotional and stuff. BLAH! I can always feel when it's coming too - it's those days when it's THAT much harder to get up in the morning and that much more difficult to get through a work out - those are the days before it hits then WHAM! On my butt for at least two days. No fun.

Back to nerdiness - this is so cool! Robots are completely awesome. Just as long as, you know, they don't build one that's life size without a chord (and it always comes back to The Office!) because it could take over the world that way (oh dwight schrute).

And who wouldn't want a robot to open a beer for you!? Beer opening robot!

And going back to my FAVE show - who isn't excited about my future husband receiving these honors:-) HEART!

Finally - I think I am going to sign up for this Tri for the end of June - Baldwin Park Tri. I should be in shape by then! All things being what they are and that I remain healthy.

Elsewhere - life is kind of bleh. Work is bleh for the moment. I'm going to VEGAS next week which should be fun. Looking forward to experiencing it - as I have never been there. Also looking forward to seeing my seestar:-) I miss her.

Live Every Week Like It's Shark Week

This week in undoubtedly better than last week - I have plenty to update about England but basically - it's only Monday and can I just say - March is going to be my month!

That's all for now - but I can already see it:-)
