My Random Thoughts

College football (more specifically, A&M football) starts this coming weekend. The first few weeks seem kind of random (for example, the first game is Montana State). But, hey, they are back and it will be good to see them in action again! Coach Fran saved his happy butt with the win over Texas last season. Let's see what happens this season!!!

Okay, now for kitty stuff. My little Simon has always been a tad high strung and out there. And he suffers from severe separation anxiety. I think I have proven time and again that I will come home, but poor baby just doesn't seem to get it. So, I am thinking about getting some stuff that I researched on the Internet. It is supposed to calm cats and dogs (they have drops for water, air dispersers and other means of dispersion). I can't see myself doing the water bowl because Sierra is a pretty mellow cat. She doesn't need anything else. I am just curious as to whether these things work. I have to take Simon to the vet soon for his checkup and I will definitely ask then, but I was wondering if anybody else has had experience with the stuff. I don't want to drug the poor kitty, but he needs SOMETHING!!!

Okay that is it for Tuesday. Everybody have a great day!

Sunday wrap-up


This is my favorite Icanhascheezburger picture this week. And there have been some great ones this week. Anyway, just adding some humor to Sunday! I am now ready to relax. I went to lunch and shopping with Michelle. Well, she went shopping, I went along for support :). Next weekend will be my turn because I need to find something super cute to wear for Jen's bachelorette party coming up. That will blast and I need something fun to wear.
I just got back from the gym and my session with Ryan. My arms are still a little shaky -- that should hopefully go away soon. But that limits the amount of typing I can actually do. So, I will be brief. Hope everyone had a great weekend!
Later......

No longer feel like hiding

I had a pretty good weekend and not a bad Monday either. Saturday night was a Saints and Sinners concert. I had not heard them live in a very long time and it was nice to see them again! They were playing at the What Bar on Greenville Ave. I hadn't been there in a long time either. Apparently there have been a lot of things I hadn't done in awhile :).

I just got a call from someone who shares an office with the lady I sometimes get massages from and it was rather shocking. Apparently she has been in the hospital with a whole slew of issues and it sounded pretty frightening! From what I gathered, she is out of the hospital now and so I will call her tomorrow on her cell. It is too late now. Thoughts and prayers are now going out to her :(.

That is actually all I feel like writing right now so good night. I am super tired because Ryan is now kicking my booty 3 x a week (at least for a few weeks). I have a beautiful bridesmaid dress to put on in less than 6 weeks and well, I need to make sure I look good :). However, with an awesome figure comes some serious work!!! But its all good. And believe it or not, it makes me super happy. Even if I b**** and moan to him during the workout :).

Later!

The Weekend Update!

This weekend was actually pretty good. I wasn't sick any of it, which made it much better than last weekend! Yesterday was Jen's shower and it was a lot of fun. She got some great stuff that I actually wondered if she'd miss had they, um, "disappeared" :)>. I kid, of course!!! But she racked in a lot of good stuff and I have never seen someone so excited to get a toaster! Although, that was a freakin great toaster (and actually the gift my mom and I got her!). You might think, how cliche for a wedding gift. But I knew for a fact she wanted that toaster since hers had broken. Otherwise I doubt I would have gone for the toaster!!!

After the shower, I had dinner with Jon. That was fun and we got to catch up, which was cool.

Today was my workout with Ryan. With the wedding coming up and the dress I have to wear, I need to keep things tight and even lose a few more pounds. So, Ryan came up with a super intense, super hard workout. I actually was seeing spots in the middle of it. It was a great workout but I was so not ready for it!!! He wanted to shake things up and well, he did!!

Well,that is pretty much it. Everyone have a great week.

Funny Cat Story of the Month

I was taking a bubble bath last night and lately Simon has taken to sitting on the edge of tub to just chat about the day. Anyway, he was in his normal spot last night and Sierra comes up and just knocks him into the tub. I really couldn't stop laughing. After launching off my leg (yeah, I have a scratch, but totally worth the laugh), he gets out of the tub and just looks startled. Sierra is standing in the door way, looking at him as if to say "What, I didn't do anything!". And everytime he looked her way, she would just look the other way. At least he smelled like Grapeseed bubbles :).

This week started off a tad rough. I wasn't feeling well this weekend and it spilled over into Monday. Today I feel MUCH better. And a lot more awake. Tonight I am going to Mia's massage school. She has a final tonight and I am the lucky person she is graded on :). It is such a hard favor for me to do. So, so unbearable........ :)>. She practiced on me on Sunday morning so I know she knows what she is doing.

So, that is really it. I need to get started on a couple of projects here at work. Things have picked up a lot here at the office, which is a great thing. I don't feel ineffective anymore. Actually, I feel pretty well utilized. So, that is good. And there is a pathway into my 2nd bedroom, which I am happy with. It will get there, I know it. I just was a bum this past weekend (although I did get to see Michelle on Saturday. Hadn't seen her in awhile!)

Have a great Tuesday! Later.

Who wants to be a super hero?

This is an actual show. On the Sci Fi network. Don't ask why I am watching it. It is like a train wreck -- I can't look away. And I may have to watch next week. There is a new one next Thursday -- mental note made. Actually I don't watch enough of the Sci Fi channel. It is a fun station.

Today was a pretty good day. Work is picking up and I am pretty happy about that. I still think I am going to finish my PHR, stay my required year (since they paid for it and I don't want to have to pay it back!) and then look on for other things. I guess it depends on where I am in a year with my career. I could be just working in a gym as a personal trainer full time. That sounds wonderful right now :). Speaking of which, 24 Hour is having an information session for Group Instructors this month and I will so be there for the information session. It would be a great part time thing for me!! That and studying for my PHR :).

K, that's it. Good night!
