These things happen to everyone. It does not make you a bad mom.
Your little girl is fine and is even washing her hands by herself!
You taught her well.
And I seriously do not know how any parent does it. I would love to have the opportunity to see how I would do, but you can't give them back once you have one....

Did I mention the time she got into the Desitin??? She painted the better part of her room with it...

I don't know how people with more than one (think Coffeebro who has 3!!!) do it - I get tired thinking about it.

You can't give them back although I have offered to give her away, no takers yet :D

She is a cutie, I have to say and I love her to death, I just wish I wasn't so tired...

OMG :iagree: :iagree: :iagree: And I cannot stand the ones who ask the stupidest questions and they always have a string of 20...."So what did you say again?" "So where are we doing this now?" "Will I be involved?" Mind you all of the questions were answered a zillion times...Then they follow it up with like 5 minutes of self praise on each point.
:svengo:

>sorry for the little rant there but I had a meeting today for 4 hours and I can totally relate...A four hour meeting that should have taken 30 minutes :svengo:<:blush5:

Hello by the way Big guy :) lovely progress you are making and the cat in your avi is the cutest!! Take care :)

Get out of my board room!! It really seems as if you were there.
Maybe all corporate dillholes are the same.

I do love the patting each other on the back over a phone line. Even better if it is a webinar or 'goto meeting' and all this happens.

Thank you for the complement of Harold. I shall tell him he has an admirer.

She'll go to college in 15 years and then you will miss her.
Hell she will hate you in 10 years and you'll be upset. Face it, it really is a no win situation......
You can sleep in 20 years or so once she is grown and married and all that good stuff.
 
Right on all counts.

Please don't think I am complaining...I think you caught me on 'one of those nights' that's all :)
 
For reasons that shall remain hidden I am in the best mood I have been in for months.
There is actually very little that will be able to pull me off my cloud today.
Annoying office girl/boy and new perky office girl are all here today and annoying and I don't care.
I had to fire 3 people today and I don't care.
The apocolypse is apparantly coming from the looks of outside and I don't care.

All is as perfect in Brian's world as can possibly be.
Days like this make you realize there are more important things than anything else you can think of.

:D
 
Absolutely not. :D
I am greedy and do not get like this often by any means- I am usually a miserable SOB.
I am keeping this all to myself thank you very much. :D
 
Absolutely.
My good mood is surprisingly still here.:D
The sun is shining, supposed to be a beautiful day.......
 
So I did deadlifts for the first time on Friday. I had no less than 5 people watching me. I have never seen anyone in my gym doing deadlifts and I think I was a novelty item to them. I actually had 3 of those people ask me to show them the correct form. Now I researched the form for a day, practiced without weight and then did them. I told them to o the same thing since I was not 100% sure I knew everything.
I ran over 7 mile Friday and Sunday. I am really starting to get good endurance and am lowering my times. My 'day off' involved de-thatching my entire lawn- racking and bagging 13 bags of dead grass- needless to say my back and shoulders were on fire yesterday.
Ran yesterday evening. Like I said above- my endurance is getting to be real good. I went the entire 40 minutes on the treadmill and did not slow down once. 4.18 miles in 40 minutes. I did a 5K in under 30 minutes both Friday and yesterday. I am still planning on entering the 1/2 Marathon on 9/14 and need to increase my endurance to where I can run for 2 hours or so.

All in all life is good. New pictures up in my pic thread.....
:D
 
OK.

Did something remarkably stupid today....
Didn't eat from 8am - 330pm. I really forgot.
I got up- I decided to take the day off as it was beautiful here- went to get a haircut at 9, played 9 holes of golf and got home at around 130. I then went downstairs and worked out then went for my run at 230 or so. I could not figure out why at 1 mile or so I was ready to die. This would be because I just had a bowl of shredded wheat at 8.
I made it through the slowest 4 miles I have run in a while, came home and made myself a 400 cal protein shake instantly to get some calories in me and have been working on re-hydrating myself the rest of the night.
I just cannot believe I did that.....

I ate a good full dinner and now am feeling ok, but I really do not know what the hell happened.

oh well- just thought I would document it.

We had you doing Romanian Deadlifts, right?

Don't you love how hardly anyone uses real exercises anymore? It's like they're a forgotten treasure. The moment someone starts doing them though, everyone wants a piece, lol.

I had my choice. I chose to start with traditional since the form seemed to be simpler. I want to get the basic movement down before I move on- Romanian looked to potentially put more strain on the back if the form was off.

It really is amazing how many people at my gym work exclusively on arm and chest 4-6 days a week.
I know they look at me as a bit nuts since I bounce all over but it just seems like my workouts make sense....

Possibly.

In general though, Romanians are much easier to perform than conventional. With Romanians, you're really only dealing with hip flexion and extension. With Conventionals, you've got a lot more going on.

But do what you're comfortable with.

Have you read the Basic Lifts sticky with regards to the description on deadlifts there?

And people wonder why that saying of "weight are dangerous" exists.

Yea, you only work your arms and chest every single day, you damn well better believe you're going to hurt yourself.

I have but probably need to look at it again- it has been a while. I remember being concerned with the straighter leg aspect of Romanian- As I have stated time and again I am not flexible at all and am worried that the basic movement would put too much strain on my back due to this.
I am working on stretching every day now with the hopes of increasing my 2x4 type flexibility.
 
So I was having a conversation in another thread and realized this...

I have not been flirted with/hit on/picked up in a open setting- bar, party, etc- for over 15 years. Now I am married and have been for over 9 years so this is not something I am looking for but it just hit me. I am going to be 34 in a month and I have not been flirted with since I was maybe a freshman/sophmore in HS- not even sure about this. I met my wife through a mutual friend at a party so I really do not count that.

EVeryone wants that little thrill of attraction and is flattered by attention- even if they do not want to act on it.
I really do not know why...I mean I am fat and all but I see many fat people getting hit on all the time in clubs and the like.

This is interesting....
Not sure what to do with this new found information.
