Steve: Dude, I totally am!
Nibbit: Thank you, and so far so good. EVERYONE around me this weekend is drunk. It is pretty annoying, makes me want to drink just so they don't annoy me anymore, BUT I haven't even really been really wanting to drink!
Trops:
Excellent! I've been dry as dirt, too--hope the band was good, I love the blues but they are definitely a beer-jerker if you know what I mean....
Dee: Ya know what Chris said? I forgot to mention, because I really downplay my cooking (because my closeset friends all are amazing cooks and I feel pale in comparison a lot--HOWEVER I tend to lean toward not cooking so much as in, I like my food as RAW as possible. Shimmy shimmy ya, Shimmy yo shimmy yay [Old Dirty Bastard]); he said my fish tacos were SUPERLATIVE Hahahahahaha, that's rich! And he was a chef himself. The thing I mastered is taste and texture, I really know what goes well with what so I can create a palate-banced meal. Wine knowledge must help, too.
This weekend: Has been very very interesting. Let me just say that I have a few stories to tell! And I need to get ready for another day of pouring wine all day. Sigh!

Thanks, Dee and Homegirl!
Friday night THIS happened at my house:
Barre's home, and so he was trying to get drunk when I went to bed early at 10pm last night (because I haven't been sleeping much in the past month or so).
At 12:50 am I heard panic and pandemonium! A shotgun fired off!!
"I got him!!"
and
"Follow the bloodtrail!!"
woof woof woof went some dogs
pow pow pow!! more guns!
laughter......more barking. Then silence.
I kind of shivered in my bed, wondering if I should get up and investigate. I realized I could totally take a piss right then, so I moved to get up and see what the fuck was going on.
"Barre...what the fuck??" I said sleepily.
"I'm huntin' Bigfoot. So I thought I'd shoot at Keith [the Redneck of Boulder Creek who squats on our property by the house truck] while I was at it. Double ought goes a quarter mile, remember that...." he said poisonously, acting more like the Scorpio he is than I'd ever seen him! Yeesh!
"WHAT? Why?"
"Well, it's all about hot sex around here. I thought I'd heighten the experience."
"Uhhh, I'm going back to bed!!"
The next day I questioned Barre. Apparently Keith had a lady friend (maybe his girlfriend, maybe not) over last night. Barre was grouchy because he was trying to get drunk and couldn't, on account of he spilled three drinks in a row. Now, that would about piss me off as well. I suppose the sexcapades by the housetruck made him more irate, and he thought it would be a good idea to SHOOT AT Keith. Wasn't Keith mad? Or freaked out? Lawrd knows I was thinking Barre must be off his fucking rocker! Nope, said Barre. Keith was the one who yelled "Follow the bloodtrail!" and fired off his OWN piece shortly thereafter. Keith said Barre's shooting at him only made him feel closer to the guy.
Only in Boulder Creek. Don't fuck with us. We're unfuckwitable.
p.s. Barre said the dynamics in their relationship is similar to Inspector Clouseau and Cato Fong in The Pink Panther, like each is trying to keep the other one sharp by trying to "murder" the other. It's a guy thing, I guess.....I understand it now, but it took me all day.........
Saturday night:
I had got a Dubwise brand Soul Jah Girl Rasta zip up white shirt and hat, and donned short white shorts and knee-high socks with red shoes. What I needed was soccer shoes and knee highs with Jamaican flag colors and dreadlocks to get my point across because the general public was so confused, they didn't get it if I was a damn PILOT or a sailor, and I have never in my life been more laughed at due to my apparel!!!
From a young age I know that if you dress conspicuously and ostentatiously, you are going to get a lot of attention, therefore my feelings were not hurt and I was minimally embarrassed Guys seemed to like my outfit due to the short shorts, knee high socks and pigtails (low ones, so my hair was not screwing with my hat), I noticed. I was on my way to the Hookah Lounge only to find that the tables are BOLTED into the floor and there was no where to dance. I talked to a girl about the available Dubstep dance parties in the old S.C., and busted a move to the trippy ass Dubstep that D.J. Cozy was spinnin' (the hookah-smoking crowd was a bit awestruck at my audacity). I don't give a shit. I was dressed to dance, and I was not at all worried about how ridiculous I looked or what people thought of me. 
I went downtown and to the Blue Lagoon. I came, I saw, I danced, I left when the music changed to Nellie Furtado (I respect her as an artist but I was NOT feelin' her song to dance to). I ran into some street kids looking for acid and it reminded me of my youth! Bar, the homeless guy trying to help them out, helped me out by taking me to all the places that play funky music but nothing was close to the Dubstep I was looking for....while the 17 year olds followed us like a gaggle of goslings. Hahaha, it sure was interesting, me in my ridiculous clubbin all white and Jamaican-colored outfit and an older homeless black dude with a single file entourage of teenagers walking down the street
Chatting with them, I saw my neighbor and friend Nick with 2 of his buddies, so I jumped in front of him and was like "HEY!!!!" and scared him because he didn't recognize me (my style of clothing changes and I don't really have a style, I'll wear anything if it looks good or is comfortable but I WILL NOT wear PINK!) Turns out he and his buddies were on their way to their car to drive in the boonies in Soquel to a DUBSTEP PARTY!!!!
We shmobbed over there together, only to arrive as the music stopped and we were informed the COPS were coming to break up the party.
Apparently, if you look TOO HARD for a Dubstep dance party, you will NEVER find it. Serendipity rules, as we all probably know........

Perfect Day maybe
I went to bed at 10pm and had a great night's sleep.
I woke up at 6am and finished my laundry while I did 30 minutes of yoga in my living room. I do not use my DVD anymore, I freestyle it and I forgot to record the asanas due to my Yoga Bible being in Oakland. I'll eventually get to that. I showered & packed everything I needed for the day and made it to work on time. I had for b-fast:
Kombucha, strawberry____70
Açai Rio Energy____170
Sprouted wheat bagel____260
goat milk cream cheese on top____120
fig jam____90
Total: 710
Seems like a lot, but I'm planning on my long run today after work, an hour and a half in the woods with my Big Ass Hill on the trails in the forest. That burns 940 to 1050 calories plus a metabolic boost for a few hours after for my size and fitness level.
Lunch will be soy protein tacos with lots of organic produce that I make myself, and I'm gonna run a few errands as well (need to get a few things at Fleet Feet).
The good news: I singed up for a belly dancing class at Cabrillo College for 4 Sundays (9/21; 9/28; 10/5; 10/12)!!!! The only problem is my half marathon is the 5th I probably won't be able to make it that Sunday, BUT I'm going to try..........hahahaha, at least to SIT and watch, I'll tell the teacher on the first day of class. I have a veil with bells and a jingle belt that I've used for belly dancing at my gym (I sucked, I was a beginner, but I liked it, it was quite fun and now I want to get into it).
After the Half Marathon I'm planning on getting into an Intermediate Yoga studio and pursuing climbing, yoga, and belly dancing. I think I might put my gym membership on 3 month hold so I won't be spending so much money on fitness classes. I just want to mix it up. I haven't been pumping iron, BUT I suppose the yoga has been keeping my upper body muscular because I sill have upper body strength and bulging biceps () for some reason. My legs are kept muscular by Kickboxing and running. I'm just ready for a change, and perhaps to get more into a community of like-minded females (not like there won't be males at Yoga, just that I suspect there will be more women).

Yep, I suppose it is! I was terribly shocked, but amused that Keith and Barre are such good friends. Barre helped Keith fix his truck yesterday. There was absolutely no hard feelings. I'm slightly perplexed because Barre is going away for 1-3 weeks (he hasn't decided) and therefore I'll have the house to myself, which is nice BUT not so nice late at night. Good thing Keith'll be there to protect me. I don't want to have to shoot at anyone MYSELF!
Laji01: Uhh, hi! Thanks you, good luck to you as well

Oh yeah, I forgot you were doing that! Well well well, I suppose I could tell AmbaLove she's copying my own 10-6 sleep pattern with morning yoga, but I think I'll settle with the coincidental perspective on the thing. Or the psychic exchange of contagious ideas....

Double Ought goes a quarter mile!!!
Sigh. I don't think Barre was truly aiming at Keith with a serious intention!

OH YEAH!!!
I forgot to weigh myself!
I weighed myself Sunday morning and was 144.0, BUT that was probably due to me running for 40 minutes after standing, pouring wine for 6 hours, then going out and dancing for a bit, and running around, not drinking alcohol. Sunday I worked the festival but I think I ate more than I should have, AND I had an ice cream cone (peppermint stick ice cream on a sugar cone) at 6pm. Dinner was goats' milk cheese bruschetta at the bar with Barre, and seltzer water. Not my healthiest. I suspect I'm still 145-146 lbs, but am absolutely optimistic that I'll be back to 143 in a week or so, as it's my goal to sleep 8 hours every day this week (when I'm sleep deprived, I eat more).

Yes, it was total coincidence! I've been missing from here for so long that I had no idea we were doing the same thing until you said so on my blog!!
However, if I were going to copy someone, you are certainly a good choice, as you are hot and commited and actually at your goal weight!! (Tyly would be another great choice...and Margaret...and well, so many others!)

HOT!
Thanks, Amber you sweetie pie! I'm not quiiiiite at my goal weight, I'd like to ideally lose another 5-10 lbs and THOSE pounds are the hardest to lose and a lot harder to keep off. Committed, I am 100% though--otherwise I'd still be drinking beer Yes Tyly and Margaret and many others are a total inspiration Good luck with the sleeping more and the yoga--I'm enthusiastic that it will help me lose weight by relaxing me and givieng me adequate rest to make good food choices.Curvie Girlie

"SOME BATTLES MUST BE FOUGHT MORE THAN ONCE TO BE WON"
so says the Boulder Creek Church's sign this week. I personally applied it to my weight loss/fitness gain journey. I've done it before (at age 20 I got to 135 lbs and was the fittest I'd ever been; at 24 I got to 137 lbs and was again, the fittest I'd ever been; currently I'm 145 (?) and damn close to those levels of fitness) and as y'all are my witnesses, I'll do it again.
There is no other option.
The battle is a lot of fun--the journey is amazing, and I'm having a great time along the way.
Not drinking helps AN AWFUL LOT.

A quick rant:
I buy food at the "health food" store. I know that not everything in there is healthy per se. And I usually check labels. Well, when I purchased the goat's milk cream cheese it was for the intention of using it on my sprouted wheat bagels, and with the idea that goat's milk products are better for me than cow's, and I figured I might give it a try (type A blood supposedly benefits better in that sense).
The nutritional information was horrific!
130 calories per 1 oz (I didn't quite use a whole oz this morning)
50 % DRV of saturated fat!!!!
2% DRV calcium--wtf???
1 gram protein (measly)
and I'd have to grab it to read the rest, but seriously, how is this healthy? I'm not buying it again, but I'm gonna use that stuff, it tastes good and I don't even like cream cheese, usually.
I should have stuck to hummus.
