just updating
happy friday! this morning, i re-measured myself the correct way. the only measurements that really changed are my thighs and my hips. i was putting the tape measure at the fullest part of my thigh, but after learning the correct way (more of the midway point) my measurement went down!! in doing my hips, i used to measure at the hip bone…now in doing it the right way, i measured around the fullest part of my booty so the number went up. overall i feel better because now my numbers should be more consistant. i also managed to take some new pics…even though my battery light was blinking the whole time!! i’m not too pleased with my new pics, i think i have gained some weight and i’m not too thrilled about that. i dont wanna get too down on myself, so hell, maybe i’m just retaining a little water 
for some reason, i always think i look better in the mirror than i do in pictures. i think i look pretty lean, with nice muscle definition in the mirror but it doesnt seem to carry through in photos. my guess is that i’m too pale…if i had a tan i think i would come across better on camera. well, i’m irish so there isnt a whole lot i can do, this summer i’ll just have to keep experimenting with self tanners 
on a side note, i’ve been loving my pre-season baseball preview! its so nice to have baseball back…even if its just exhibition games. i like seeing how the new guys fit in and how the young kids look. hopefully everyone can get and stay healthy, well except for adam eaton. apparently, he has a bum back (or he just sucks and is a waste of 8 mil) whatever the case, 60 day DL him…and lets forget he exists also, i have to say cole hamels is my favorite pitcher and i see cy youngs and 20 win seasons in his future…but please JUST SHUT UP!!! i cant stand athletes bitching about their salarys like little girls. just go out and pitch, you’ll get your money!! i’m sure its hard to live on $500,000 but i just did my taxes…so i have no sympthy!
oh yeah, anyone that has ever read my blogs knows that i kinda have a small obsession with veins. so, today i was vacuuming and looked down and thought ‘damn, my arm looks awesome’. i grabbed my camera and took some pics, but of course it didnt quite translate like i hoped

Know the feeling. Last night I did back and shoulders and I looked pumped and really defined. So of course, I grab the camera and same thing, all my pump and definition must be camera shy as it was not there in the picture. But you are right, us Irish folk do not tan easily. I usually freckle and then go straight to heat stroke. Take care and have a good weekend.

"i’m sure its hard to live on $500,000"
haHA
Yes, it’s simply criminal expecting the poor guy to survive on such a pittance! D’OH!
Have a great weekend! (Hey, it’s "almost" Friday, right?)

last night was the first time I actually took good vein pics..I’ll try again when I actually have a pump going on to see how they compare.
