I'm Here

Life is still good in the land of Kim. I still rock and I am still pretty happy :). I made it back from lunch before the rain started again. This weather has been pretty nice. I really like walking to the Bank of America building without fear of bursting into flames. I know it won't last but I am enjoying a few days of somewhat cool weather before we ride out the rest of summer.

Tonight I am playing poker at the Tipp Inn. I love that place but I hardly ever go play there on Wednesday night. Something always comes up. Well, tonight I am going. I am so bad at playing but I probably would get better if I actually made an effort to go and consistently play. I am in HR, I know how to bluff :)>. I am usually not the first one out, so I find that to be an encouraging sigh.

Okay, back to work. I was on my lunch break and now I need to get some work done. Woohoo. I'd rather daydream about cute new boy. But I can do that between projects. :)

I kind of rock :)

My first Aqua class was a success. I had fun teaching it and I think they enjoyed it. Jen and Mia came to the class and I am so glad they did. I was going into someone else's class and I loved having that moral support. Once I got going, man, I loved it. Genius me left my notes for the class on the kitchen counter but luckily I had reviewed them enough to know the flow of what I wanted to do. And to tell the truth, it was rush :). Okay, I am tired and want to go to sleep. It's been a long day!

One of the Best Weekends on Record!

I know I am a few days late on reporting, but hey, better late than never.

Mia and I went to dinner after yoga on Friday night and I just wanted low key and easy. We ended up going to the Humperdinks around the corner from me. We sit down and are soon approached by a nice man who asks us to join he and his friend for dinner. We decided to just eat at our table and then join them for a drink at the bar. They finished first and parked it at our table while we were finishing up. We ended up chatting with the guys and well, come to find out these guys are nice and our initial approacher actually had the hots for me. Woo hoo :). The more I talked to him, the more I liked him. So, based on that I gave the stranger my phone number :). We went to dinner the next night and ended up talking for hours. And then I hung out at the pool with him on Sunday. I got a tad too much sun but it was still a lot of fun! No news on the next date, but I do see us going out again. If we do, I will reveal more tidbits about him :). Mia thought he was nice so that counts for something.

Tonight I am working on my Aqua routine. I think since it is the first class, I am a little nervous but I know it will be great. I am the teacher, it is my class, I need to just keep my energy up and love it for them. But, yeah, I am still nervous. It has also been along time since I was hired till now. Just guess I never thought it would come. I am still just a sub, but hey, its a start!!! I can tell you there will be a lot of cardio and a lot of core :).

Ryan announced a contest for his clients for the month of Sept. It will include him too. So, I will want to beat him and therefore I will totally stick to my workout and eating schedule. There is a diet that Christian Bale did for the Batman movie that he and another client will be following. I am actually going to look it up too and just modify it to my portion and calorie needs. I will definitely share it once I look it up and get it started! I am looking forward to this all. It is something I need to mix things up.

Okay, well this post is kind of long so I will end it now. Plus, I need to make sure I have my plan of attack for the class tomorrow night. And the endorphins from working out will wear off soon and I will be sleepy in a minute.

My DVR makes a statement

So, I am not sure what comes on when during the Olympic coverage so I decided to just set my DVR to record it all and I would just watch and delete what I wanted. Or so I thought. The first time I tried to set it, my DVR went crazy and my cable went out. Yep, I know it was just a coincidence, but dang it was funny timing. Who knew the DVR was so political??

I hope everyone is having a great Friday. Now it is time to go get ready for yoga class. I think a Friday yoga class is perfect for me. I tend to get pretty high strung by the end of the week and the relaxation is good for me. This needs to become a habit (I did it last Friday too).

Later!

Forgot to mention

I accidentally turned my hair dark. I was trying to color my hair on my own. Well, I ended up with a reddish, brown looking color. I kind of like it -- and my head isn't orange. I think once this wears off though I will get it professionally done. And I might just stay in the red family. I kind of like it. :)

Is it Friday yet???

Howdy! Just checking in to say hi. I saw "The Mummy 3" last night. I would recommend it as a DVD rental. That's all I am going to say. It was cool to see the Chinese locations and the Terra Cotta soldiers (all a part of the plot) but yeah, I don't really remember the first 2 being that cheesy. Maybe I need to see them again. "Mamma Mia" on the other hand was awesome!!! I loved the musical on Broadway and I thought the movie just nailed it. It was very fun and I enjoyed it. I did want to get up on the chair and sing "Dancing Queen". It actually took all I had not to make a fool of myself. I know Mom would have probably enjoyed that though :).

Speaking of Chinese locations, it is pretty cool to see all the Olympic coverage of the Beijing Games. I am not really into the Olympics but I do watch an event every once in awhile. Matt Lauer was at the Summer Palace yesterday and it was so pretty. I miss that place. It was absolutely breathtaking when I was there. This picture really doesn't do it justice! I think you might see a lot of pictures of China over the next few weeks in this blog :).

Okay time to go. I am very tired and I plan to get to bed early. I am being a bum, I know. I needed to clean, but I am just kind of tired this week. So, goodnight!!
