Damn...


Anyways, Golds was GREAT today. I felt better walking in, and more drained walking out than I have in a long long time.

I have switched up and adapted my workouts a little bit. Before, I was basing the workouts around one, and MAYBE two compound lifts, then filling in the rest with iso's. Now, I'm shooting for at LEAST two compound exercises per session, and maybe even three, and then iso's where applicable.

For instance, Today I did:

Flat Bench Press 5-5-5-4-3 with 325lbs
Military Press 8-8-8 with 90lb db's
Squats with only 315 for 10-10-10 (I haven't squatted in over a year, so I went light)

then I filled in with:

Straight db flys (haven't done DB flys in awhile... nice change from the cables)
3-way delt raises
rope tricep pushdowns
Leg extensions/curls (SS)
Tripple Threats supersetted with MR Hamstrings
2 plate carry for forearms

It felt friggin amazing. I haven't squatted in a long long time because of the multiple surgeries I've had on my knee to repair my torn ACL, and torn meniscus. I just really don't want to put any more stress than necessary on it, but I decided that if I am going to play rugby in a few months that I need to start squatting again to at least start to gain applicable strength before I start training for sport specific strength.

Lookin up!

Also, I've started to feel strangely morose since I got back from the gym, and I had NO idea why. I was starting to think that my sugar levels had dropped too much, or something physiological was causing it...

Nope, my effin iTunes had kept playing while I was away, and had wandered into my stuff from "the cure". Robert Smith is great and all, but it is NOT the kind of stuff you listen to if you want to be in a good mood.

It's Friday... I'm in love

The Cure is one of my faves. I always listen to them to get in a 'good mood.' Then again, I'm also a twisted bitch, so that explains a lot. :D Good job with the gym, James.



As promised... I'm gonna grace your diary with a MGB Beaver Flashing. Enjoy.

I got two younger sibblings that currently go to SoCal. It pains me in my soul. Damn hippies. My youngest sister is looking around for colleges now, and is looking at uMich, so I've been in ultra "no no no no no" mode.

Mike Hart is also a great running back. His QB is a nancy, though. I've never been a big fan of Henne.

And your translation is amazing.

Update: I am FINALLY over feeling sick. Back to the gym today for a new workout!!! I've found some interesting reads on a 5x5 for compounds workout, so I might give that a try today. We'll see how it goes.

Glad you're feeling better. There's been a ton of people around here with flu-type symptoms. It's almost as though this is contagious over the internet--a computer virus..haha.

Henne's a nancy? Have you seen him in his last two games? His shoulder's all f'd up and he's playing through the pain b/c his team needs him. He's been playing really well atm. Henne's no nancy--and I'm no huge fan of his. But I've been really impressed by him lately. So, you still haven't said why you hate Mich so much. What gives?

You better watch out with MGB! That girl's whack. haha. Love ya Sheryl!! :biggrinjester:

You just watch--we're gonna beat OSU and take the Big 10 Champ and then we're gonna win our Rose Bowl game. Just you wait and see. hehe :reddevil:

I was thinking I was gonna hafta eat my words, but now that OSU lost today as well, this could still come true. Although with the way both Henne and Hart are so banged up, I don't know if we will be beating them next Saturday. But gawd, I hope we do!! :svengo:
 
I wouldn't consider a game without hart a loss for your team this year. That guy is sickening. My main reason for disliking Henne is that he messed up what was a solid title year for you guys. To have Hart AND receivers like Manningham on the same team, the quarterback could be half coked out of his brain and still take the team to a national championship.

Also, I would like to add that I (for the second time in my life) have FAR underestimated the dehydrative powers of creatine and a good lift. I drank an assload of water after my workout yesterday while toiling away the afternoon in my office. I had a bunch of friends over to pregame before the bars. Over the next few hours, I had about half a case of beers. Normally, that'd put me right at a comfortable "dancing drunk". Perfect time to go hit the bars. This is where the night goes downhill. I BARELY remember getting to the bar. I have pieced together events of the night, though, and would like to share them with you as a warning against drinking like a moron when you're heavily dehydrated.

Apparently, during the night I:

-Spent $160 in drinks. In chicago, that is a normal night. In North Carolina, it is not.
-Informed a bouncer that was trying to get me down from standing on top of the bar while singing to journey that I could beat him up with one hand behind my back. When he informed me that I would then have ten bouncers beating me up, I calmly informed him that that would do HIM no good. (strike one)
-smooched on one of my friends who I have zero romantic interest in, and who has zero romantic interest in me
-went and sat down in the women's bathroom "because it was a cool place to be". I had to be asked to exit the bathroom by the bouncer mentioned above. (strike two)
-punched a guy in the face that was hitting a little too strongly on another of my friends, making her uncomfortable (strike three!!! we get booted from the bar)
-made the cabby pull over so I could barf... three times on the five minute drive back to my house. Just typing that made my stomach quiver.
-passed out hugging my toilet. My tiny female roommate was PIIIISSED, cause I wouldn't leave when she had to go to the bathroom, and she couldn't move me, so she had to go out back and pee behind our house.

All in all, I believe I had fun. I think that I might take another month off of drinking until my body acclimatizes to the creatine intake. I did that when I started adding creatine into my stack at the beginning of college (after the FIRST time I did this... I forgot all about it until this morning, when I realize why I got so drunk so fast), and it ended up working out well then. Plus, who couldn't do without drinking 10,000 cal in one night, once a week?

Also, I was so gone that I was still drunk when I finished playing 18 this afternoon. However, it turns out that I play better when I am drunk/hungover. I may have to do some research on this and publish it on pubmed.

The sun, it burns my eyes

It wasn't just Henne who f'd up the first two games. The defense was non-existant back then. They just did a horrible job of covering the spread offenses that Oregon and App St. run. Henne actually hasn't played that badly this year. Today can't be blamed on him because he was only in for 3 drives. If Hart play next week--and I don't think wild horses could prevent him--we stand a decent chance.

Wow! Your night of drinking was something else. Sounds like somebody gets a little beligerant when he's shitfaced. :D If I was your roomie, I'd just pee in the bathroom anyway. I'd shove you out of my way ('cause I'm pretty strong), call you a few choice words like, "drunk bastard!" and take care of biz. But if I were your tiny roomie, I'd probably just piss on you..lmao:biggrinjester: Golden showers...

I'm actually normally very much like my normal self. I'm loud and abraisive and hillarious. Last night was different, though. I was so gone that I don't actually remember doing any of what I listed. It was not a good night, especially because what I HAD been drinking was usually an amount that would land me in a comfortable zone of hanging out, and I wouldn't be hungover. The stupid creatine / workout bump changed shit around on me.

Stupid body

Here... this is what I think of the following... I'll post a pic.

Honey, you're lucky you have a nice roommate. I had a roommate who did the same damn thing during his "Cock Fest" and I made his life hell for the next 24 hours... big vat of Vaseline, surgical latex gloves (for smearing vaseline along his bum), rubber condoms filled with a few squirts of unscented 'milky' handsoap, mudding up one of the guys who was passed out in the living room's shoe and stamping it all along the linoleum in the bathroom... and smearing mud all over friend's pants... I hid everything and an hour later, I walked into the bathroom and yelled with fake concern, "OMG, J are you okay!! What happened???" He woke up dazed, just looking all around him, and he turned WHITE. I closed the door to the bathroom and was asking him questions, "OMG, J.. what happens here, stays here. I won't tell anyone." You should have seen the look on that dumb asshole's face!! HAHAAHAAAAA!!! I didn't tell him until the next day that I was the one who planted all of that shit. Needless to say, I had to run... fast... very fast. LOL!!

I guess in response to your beaver shot, and your pussy shot, the LEAST I could do would be to throw back a cock shot...



P.S. I am STILL hungover. Not the kickball and volleyball, nor the lift today even cleared it... Bad shape...

Wow. I adore a man with a cock shot on his comp. You're going to be placed in my list of Favorite Cocks.

Hope you start feeling better soon, James. If you need me to hold back your chest and back hair while you puke, I'm your girl.

Yeah, I'm actually feeling 100% better today.

I am spending this week watching my uncle's two kids, while he and his wife are on vacation. I'm actually REALLY excited for it. The kids are great, and I get to take 'em to showbiz pizza and kid movies and I get to watch looney toons without anyone judging me. Pretty friggin amped.

Anyways, one of my old roommates wanted some pics of my dog for nostalgia's sake, so I figured I'd share my boy with y'all as well.
 
Purebred redbone coonhound (Where the Red Fern Grows). I got him 3 years ago from a "dog haven." The people before me had chained him up outside and hadn't fed him, and had beaten him and all of that terrible stuff. I wanted a dog that could sing, he wanted a warm place to sleep. We work well.

The only big "problem" with him is that he has a SUPER weak stomach. If I vary his meals at all, he gets sick. He can't have any people food, or he gets sick. If I give him too much, or too little food, he gets sick. It was a ROUGH start trying to figure all of that out.
