you know what? I love stuff, let's have a list!

* I love Lady Gaga. I'm not ashamed to admit this. I love her so much I went to Target and bought The Fame Monster instead of dling it like I did The Fame.

* I also love P!nk. So much so I'm using her in my icon. She's one of my personal fitness/physique inspirations. She's my height and frame [except she has boobs but not everyone can be perfect] and she's fucking RIPPED. I love her voice, her music, her attitude, and most especially how she's not afraid to admit that she's pretty much a psycho!bitch at heart

* I love the P90x. It was arms and shoulders today and I need to get some heavier weights. I thought I'd make do with the bands but I want the satisfaction of a weight in my hand -- plus I'm hella awkward with the bands I'm just not that coordinated! I killed it on the ab ripper today! I got in *nearly* all the reps I'm only half a set shy on two of the exercises and I only started doing those exercises this week! Granted, I'm still doing modified forms, but I'm getting there! Next week is a "rest week" and after that I get to take my 30 day shots. EEEEEEEE!!!

* Make It or Break It continues to be happy making sports-themed television. Why doesn't everyone on my flist watch it? GYMNASTS y'all!

* You know what else I love? I love Chuck. I love everything about Chuck, even the stuff a lot of its audience hates. I love how even though Buffy and Alias ended years ago, Dollhouse is going away, and that the Bionic Woman completely sucked, there is still a female on television that literally kicks ass and takes names. I love you Agent Walker! Gratuitous shirtless scenes of Captain Awesome ftw \o/\o/\o/ [I haven't watched this week's yet, don't talk about it!]

* Friday Night Lights continues to be some of the best damn television that has ever been made. This season is especially amazing. I don't care how many of y'all hate Becky and wish that she would go away and/or die. I LOVE HER. And everyone else on the show [except the fucking McCoys], especially ::gasp:: Buddy Garrity. Buddy Garrity warms my soul.

* I love a lot of other tv too, but I'm actually 1 - 2 episodes behind on every single thing I watch because of this earlier bedtime and the interruption in weekend television that is football. Football will end soon and although my social calender is about a thousand times more packed than it was, I will eventually catch up. Or at least get close, but then there's my stack of comics and it's actually taller than I am at this point so yeah, I'll probably always be behind. Dude, I still only in the "G"'s in Yuletide!

* I love my flist -- y'all always make me smile and motivate me and warm my heart as well as my soul -- y'all are better than Buddy Garrity, who knew?

Week 2, day 10.

Through the end of February I am teaching 3 classes a week. Some weeks I'm teaching 4 and others 5 but at least 3 every single week. This means, I am doing the P90x *Doubles* [more or less]

I love Kurt Sutter [creator/writer/show runner Sons of Anarchy], I think that is a surprise to exactly no one. I follow his blog and his twitter and he cracks me up pretty much daily. Check out his check out his latest blog entry where he offers Conon O'Brien a role on Sons next season.

Day 1

We're not talking about the blister on my left foot. We're not talking about the wanna be blister on my right foot.

We're *really* not talking about my itunes and the clusterfuck that is my ipod.

We're also not going to talk about the Zumba class I taught today with around 47 people [please see things we're not talking about 1 and 2]

we're talking about P90X day 1 )

Y'all -- I had somewhere between 44 and 47 people in my Zumba class last night. We were jam packed and everyone was smiling and grooving and most importantly - sweating. According to one of my ladies, it was the best class I'd ever taught.

::beams::

Here's the Play-list (in-order) if anyone wants any of the songs let me know and I'll upload them over the weekend:

I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas
La Fiesta - Will Smith
Boom Boom Mama - Da Family
Suavemente - no idea
Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Brian Setzer Orchestra
Beat It - Michael Jackson
Llego El Sabor - Papi Sanchez
Ya No Toy Pa' Eso - Ilegales
Conga - Gloria Estefan
Kiss Kiss - official Zumba song
La Bomba - Diaz Brothers Remix
Release Me - Robert Miles

I really need to get more Papi Sanchez and Daddy Yankee music in my collection, the ladies LOVE IT. Da Family too if BBM is any indication of the rest of their music.

Dear World -- most especially [livejournal.com profile] stoney321, [livejournal.com profile] moosesal, and [livejournal.com profile] cityphonelines

I just invested in the P90x.

I'm scared I'm going to give up and lose an asston of money so I will be posting as I do this. I discovered through Weight Watchers and when I first embarked upon The Plan, talking about it to an audience [real or imagined] makes me more accountable and determined to succeed.

Which leads me to a poll:

[Poll #1507993]

To gain muscle tone and definition
Wage a preventive war against Osteoporosis
