The Chronicles of “B”

Monday Morning…Where have you Been???

Well I haven’t been on here since Friday and the reason is pretty stupid! 

Friday night I didn’t get on because I had about a million things to do including working my shoulders so I didn’t get a chance to check in.   Then Saturday I decided that I was going to spend the entire day with my wife and kids so we went to the movies……The Wife and I watched The Brave One which was pretty awesome and the kiddies watched Resident Evil.  After the movie we went out to eat, I just had salad with plenty of veggies, and then we went out for ice cream!!  Yes I did partake of the ice cream….even Hard Core Muthas cheat once in a while!!  It was plain vanilla yogurt sweetened with splenda so it wasn’t to much of a cheat….it was damn good though.

So Sunday morning I got up and went for a nice leisurely run and when I got back home I decided I was going to get online and check in with BodySpace.  Well I couldn’t get it to log on so I looked at my modem and the online light was off.  GREAT!!! 

Well knowing that Time Warner Cable does not always supply reliable service to Shitholeville OH 45887 I decided to just wait and then later on I would check and see if I was back online.  Well I got busy so I didn’t check till late last night and still no service!!  Now I’m pissed because this happens far to often and it seems like it’s always on the weekend.  So I decided that after my run this morning I was going to call and go off on them about the crappy service. 

As I’m sitting at my desk on the phone listening to the endless menu of options I happen to glance over once again at my modem and I notice something I hadn’t seen before.  At the very bottom of the light display was a light that was lit.  Upon further inspection I noticed that the light was labeled standby!!  Hmmmmmm imagine that!!  I inspected the modem further and noticed that there is a button on top of the modem also labeled standby!!!  Now a lightbulb came on over my head and I pressed the standby button and PRESTO!!!!  I was back online. 

Now I don’t know how that button got pushed but I’m thinking that our stupid cat might have done it.  He is still just a kitten and he climbs around on everything but especially the stand where the modem sits.  Had he stepped on the top of the modem he could have easily pushed that stupid button.  But anyway…..I’m back!!

Today was scale day and much to my surprise I only dropped 1 lb!!  I really thought it would be more because although I wasn’t as tight on my diet as I should have been I was a cardio machine all week….I really busted my ass running hills and steps and about a zillion sprints.  This week I’m tightening the diet up and I’m eating nothing but turkey burgers without bread, veggie salad, and my carb control yogurt with a scoop of whey in it.  And lots of water of course. 

Did you ever see the Jim Carey movie Liar, Lair????  If you have you’ll remember there is a very funny part in it where he is in a public restroom beating the shit out of himself by slamming into the walls and smashing his head in the toilet.  While this is going on a guy walks in and catches him doing this and ask, "What are you doing????"  "I’m kicking my assssss!" he screams!!  Sometimes when I don’t feel like I’ve given it everything I could have as far as diet and exercise I feel like Jim Carey in that movie and I want to kick my own ass!!!!  does anybody else feel like that?? 

Well that is about all I have this morning……I see that in the time I was gone I went from a high of 103 hits to 19 this morning.  Guess I need to get on the ball and start working the site and smozzing with my peeps!!!!  Have an awesome Monday!!!
