Suite Level

I did it guys! 4 miles today at the gym...well really it was 4.25 but I had to take a .25 minuet walk break at the 2 mile mark. I'm a little aggravated with myself that I had to stop and walk. I wanted to do a whole "run" RUNNING; however, I've noticed on other blogs that I read/love everyone says there is no shame in slowing down for a minuet to walk but I don't know there is something special about being able to run Solid miles (not stopping).
Let me say though it is by sheer mental ass kicking that I got finished with those miles. I tried to quit at least 43 times starting with at the finishing of mile one. I was thinking, "Damn it I have to run 3 more miles..." I wasn't breathing good and my legs felt stiff but I powered through and by the middle of the second mile I promised myself that when I finished 2 miles I could take a walk break and see how I felt. I was seriously debating on stopping at 2 miles and trying again tomorrow but after my quarter mile walk break I felt good and wanted to keep going- I decided to run three miles. Then the metal pep talk started again and I said, "Okay, if you can just make it to mile three you can quit and we will just accept that and go home." Those steps sucked, I felt myself slouching and I was tried of holding my arms up. Does anyone else get that way with there arms? Am I the only one that gets so bored with them and then the start feeling heavy and you just wish they were gone all together? Well, basically I was just getting bitchier and crappier at running as the minuets went by. I tried to straighten up and finish the 3 miles strong and eventually right before I hit 3 miles I was feeling good again. (I have to say this might have been the most inner dialog I have ever had with myself when running) I thought to myself, "You should go to at least 3.5 you're feeling good again." and then Take it to the House came on my Ipod and I was pumped!  That song is like the ultimate energy booster to me and it was the extended play so that meant for the next five Min's and some seconds that I was gonna be Taking it to da houseee... Yes Sir! By the time that song was over I was almost to 3.5 and I told myself, "Dude your at 3.5 that's basically 4 miles finish it so that you won't look like a bitch on your blog AND you don't have to run ANY tomorrow if you don't feel like it- if you do 4 miles you can just cross train." It worked. I finished the 4 miles then did a cool down .25. Overall, I'd give that workout a 6 out of 10 because I'm still kinda sad I didn't run the 4 miles straight but then again compared to what I used to could do-- 4.24 miles is a hell of a long way.

Now it's time to lay around and eat chocolate until the USM game tonight! We've got a tropical storm brewing down here but mommas got suite box seats and a warm room to watch the game in tonight! I'll be sure to get lots of pictures, I'm totally excited to go to MY school VIP style.

We won't be looking like this tonight!:

Whad up DOC.

I punked out tonight on the hubs show. (Sorry babes)
Work sucked today and I didn't feel like going out, being seen, sitting in humid tropical storm air, or eating gross food at Buffalo Wild Wings. (Everything they have just tastes like old/overused grease to me) Tonight I'm hanging out with one of my favorite girls: 
Oliveeee olive oliiiiivvvv! (sing like the soccer FIFA Ole Song!)  
I will kiss you senseless
No, I didn't just stick my paw in an electric socket- It's All natural baby. 
I'm so much more fun to hang out with than that guy behind me.


I feel like a bad mother because we are gone a lot so I cherish spending time with my furbaby. Tonight has consisted of her pooping in the kitchen, (she lives for showing me how much she loves me) trying to eat the food that I cooked, lots of naps, a few games of fetch, and watching documentaries. (Yes, Olive loves them too!) I have to say that one of my favorite things to do is be a hermit and stay in on a rainy night watching documentaries (oh and blogging/blog stalking). Not saying that I don't love a good movie but I could literally sit and watch documentaries all day ever day. I am currently watching the Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills series which is about the West Memphis Three (who were recently released from jail) it's an extremely interesting and detailed doc which is hard to watch sometimes due to the graphic nature of the crimes. HBO did this one and usually any documentary that they do I love. I'm also obsessed with True Life on MTV - maybe that's when it all started with me and docs. Check out the trailer to Paradise Lost below:

Another doc that is absolutely amazing is The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia. This family is insane, hilarious, outrageous, and quite frankly unbelievable. I've always loved learning about different kinds of people and how they live their lives, maybe that's why I fell in love with Sociology in college. I want to Study people, to infiltrate these groups, and to learn how they see life and why they do the things the do. See this trailer to wet your appetite for this family's story:

I'm pissed about this next doc. because I MISSED IT. Life 2.0 is about people on second life and it explores what ways their online life is affecting their real life - or "first life". I wanted to watch this SO BADLY but I was gone doing something the night it came on, on the Oprah Winfrey Network and apparently it will never come on again. I netflixed it and had to Save it because there is no release date. I could buy it off the guys website but it wouldn't get mailed to me until 2012. WTF. If any of you saw this doc. make me even more jealous by telling me what you thought about it please! Check out the trailer for it here:


I need MORE suggestions now. If you are a nerd like me and love documentaries please don't keep them from me and comment on this post and tell me what I should check out next. I find everything deviant interesting and I'm always searing for new Docs to watch especially on rainy nights alone with the furbaby.

Tomorrow's my long run wish me luck on my 4 miles!

Funny things

I've been doing a lot of fun things this week which totally explains my lack in posting. However, I'm trying to get back in the swing of things and I've even started using windows live writer. I'm confused currently and to lazy to try and figure everything out tonight so, mayybeee that will happen this weekend? Who knows, all I know is that I have been working out like crazy, eating too much chocolate, spending time with good friends, doing shitty new projects at work that SUCK, and I got our wedding pictures in! (That is another whole can of worms that I also have to sit on the computer and figure out how to post in order to please my family and friends.) I swear I will blog more and post those damn pictures by Sunday but during the week I'm just not into it. I'm tired, I'm focused on going to work, tanning, gym, (Hell no to the laundry I make Chad do that shit) watching my shows, and cooking food for me to eat. I'll get to the pictures this weekend (which is already slammed full of activities: shows & football) and I'll figure out my way around windows live writer later... hopefully. I also want to read the latest Sookie Stackhouse book which I've been wanting to do since May. Yea, that has been going good I'm on page 31.

Funny thing #1
However, in the midst of my hectic life I did have time to do something funny today. (Well, I think it's funny) Does everyone remember the Facebook game when all the girls started posting colors as their status and no one knew why for a long time and it turned out to be to raise awareness for brest cancer. Well, there is a NEW thing and it was too good to ignore:



HAHAHA you guys are Hilarious.

Funny thing #2
One of my shows I am obsessed with is Big Brother on CBS. Love Love Love it.
Hate this bitch though and she was Evicted tonight! (Squeeel) It's so FUNNY because she is just a LIAR like no other and she has a little girl that is watching her basically be Satan and she got evicted right after making her BIG move. Dumbass. HA HA HA.


-------------------------

On another note - Running has been fantastic the last 2 weeks. I did my long run on Sunday 3.5 miles and Saturday I plan on doing my long run for this week 4.0 miles. I haven't been able to do that since right before the wedding back in June. I'm back bitches and I feel great. I really really really want to focus on losing more weight so I need to put the damn chocolate down and back away from the bar. Wish me luck people. However, I'm warning you now I'm totally going nuts Saturday night after my long run with tailgating and drinking (my job rocks sometimes and I get to go to the game in the box suite at my Alma mater the University of Southern Mississippi and party like a rockstar FO FREEE!) so, I can't really expect myself to have much self control but hey, after 4 miles and 800 something calories burned I can have at least 8 Michelob Ultras right?


How busy is your life right now?


Are you going to any football games this weekend?
