So, I went to the dr. this morning and it turns out that I have a slight tear in my right knee. Im not in pain so I can go and run. nice huh? lol I wasnt put on no profile to keep me from running. Now, i need to drop some Poundage to help with the possible pain on my knee. Also, I tried on my blues and I look like Crap! Seems on the 10th of Oct. we are having a blues inspection. I guess its time to start doing way more cardio. Drop some of this fat off. hmmmmm me, lean? lol I never did reach my goal of 400 lb. bench press. shyat! the most i went was 355 lbs. 3 times. The dr. said no more dairy or supplements until i drop the weight! WTF! "Mungo not Happy!" soon, i will be calling myself "Mingo" since I’m going to really shrink. Crap! hmmmmmm I guess my health and looking better in uniform are more important for now. so, here goes for running and cardio. Trust me, i am still going to try to lift like there is no tomarrow! I have to keep the muscle on. Well, i have to end this.. why? because I’m starting to bore myself..lol

Well, tomarrow I have an MRI for my right knee. I have never had one so, I don’t really know what to expect. All I know is that I hope it’s really nothing. I think its from all the running on my knees cuz of the weight i am carrying.. yeah, i know "gordo!" its cool… But i have been getting stronger in the gym with my benching and front raises for my shoulders. I am going to try to drop to 220 lbs. in weight.. thats about 10 lbs. hope i dont get smaller..lol but who cares… As long as i can throw up the weight. well, i have to get outta here and eat… you all take/care!

Just thought i would share this with you all…lol
One day a guy dies and finds himself in hell. As he is wallowing in
despair, he has his first meeting with the devil ….. and the coversation
goes like this:
Satan: “Why so glum?”
Guy: “What do you think? I’m in hell!”
Satan: “Hell’s not so bad. We actually have a lot of fun down here. You a
drinking man?”
Guy: “Sure, I love to drink.”
Satan: “Well, you’re gonna love Mondays then. On Mondays, that’s all we do
is drink. Whiskey, tequila, Guinness, wine coolers, Tab, and Fresca.
We drink ’til we throw up, and then we drink some more! And you don’t have
to worry about getting a hangover, because you’re dead anyway.”
Guy: “Gee that sounds great!”
Satan: “You a smoker?”
Guy: “You better believe it”
Satan: “All right! You’re gonna love Tuesdays. We get the finest cigars
from all over the world, and smoke our lungs out. If you get cancer - no
biggie, you’re already dead, remember?”
Guy: “Wow…that’s awesome!”
Satan: “I bet you like to gamble.”
Guy: “Why, yes, as a matter of fact I do.”
Satan: “Good, ’cause Wednesdays you can gamble all you want. Craps,
blackjack, roulette, poker, slots, whatever. If you go bankrupt, it doesn’t
matter, you’re dead anyhow.”
Guy: “Cool!”
Satan: “What about Drugs?”
Guy: “Are you kidding? Love drugs! You don’t mean…?”
Satan: “That’s right! Thursday is drug day. Help yourself to a great big
bowl of crack or smack. Smoke a doobie the size of a submarine.
You can do all the drugs you want. You’re dead so who cares.
“Guy: “Wow! I never realized Hell was such a cool place!”
Satan: “You gay?”
Guy: “No…”
Satan: “Ooooh, Fridays are gonna be tough …”!!!!!
Have a great day!

It’s been awhile since I even blogged. Well, last week my cousin past away. Shyt, he was my age…. we grew up together playing baseball and hanging out. I cant believe he is gone. Yeah, like all families we grew alittle apart since he moved out there to Euless, Tx near Ft. Worth, but you never forget the things when we were kids. I saw a Certain person there at the funeral that I really did not want to see from my past…. My dad wanted to approach that person and say a few words.. but Why? I am happy my dad had my back, but that wasnt the place… One day! I know, that Karma Shyt! it will come around. So, anyways, we were there and I told my brother that i wanted to see the Texas Stadium before we left and We sure did! I was happy but the look on my dads face was priceless! they let us get on the field and take a few pics which was awesome! We drove along way to see texas stadium but its too bad the other reason we were there too..
This morning i text my Diva Daughter and she tells me that she is a having a bad day at school… the bell hasnt even rang yet to start school!? So, me being daddy, i call her.. "whats up Becc?" she said that she couldnt talk but i could hear that she had been crying!!!!! Okay, Daddy get Angry because you dont want to hear your son or daughter crying, much less think that something is bothering them… I cant do what i used to when she was 5 years old and make it all better… all i can do is hope and pray that everything is okay the rest of the day. I think it had something to do with her little friends… Cuz, its probably a he said/she said thing.. But still "Mungo get angry!" We do all we can to try to protect the ones we love but yet i have to let her grow up, cuz i may not always be here… But Dammit! my Ghost will!!!!! lol
I know this whole blog had nothing to do with my lifting or anything dealing with weights.. but trust me, i am lifting.. last week, I benched 355 lbs. 3 times.. I am getting there! i have to go and do an inventory… you all take/care of your families and the ones you love because you never know!

Here is a question. Why do we try to improve our bodies? who are we trying to impress? My partner says he doesnt need to impress anyone. Its true, but really. Don’t we want that guy/girl next to us to say "Shyt, that looks heavy!" or "Forget that, im not going to mess with him/her" its an Ego probablem that some of us have. We want to be the strongest in the gym or even the biggest. So, we push ourselves at the weights. Like yesterday.. I was benching 315 lbs. and i did 7 reps with no spotter. yeah, i felt good but really, i should have pushed myself more… by going up to 355 lbs. doing 2-3 reps. i have a kinda goal to hit 400 lbs. just once. Come on do you really think that i am really going to stop.. naw! because then, i want 425 lbs…. Im not young, thats for sure and i question myself lately on the amount of weight i strive to lift. i dont know if i ever will hit that 400 lb bench press but I do know that I want to look like i can. lol i guess its all about the looks… for me at least. people think i played football in high school.. lmao! nope… i weighed in at 150 lbs. coming into basic. then slowly gained forty pounds. next thing i know is i am weighing 240 lbs. and looking fat from the face cuz thats where i think i carry it the most. "chubby cheeks!" its okay because as long as i know if i get mad enough, i will just pick something up and throw it. kinda like the hulk does… i great imagination huh? lol well, hope i didnt bore with this. Im outta here.. i have the gym to start to prepare for!

So, I didn’t have to go to work today.. yea! instead i stayed home and did things here and there. Got the great opportunity yesterday evening to see my son at his 4th practice or how many he has done.. but it was my first time. I was excited to see him out there. Hes barely 6 yrs. and other kids are about his age. Its cool to just sit and watch them. Learning how to do just your basic football stuff. Tomarrow morning they have practice again. Okay, enough about him..lol Tonight, i was going to get my drink on but i have to stay sober for my Diva daughter to call me, but i already told her for tomarrow night to find a ride..lol Daddy going to get his drink on! lol Okay, i am bad for drinking but its only been once a week.. i promise! lol I should to start to eat right… lmao! whooooo did i say that? lol Please, i love food way to much, thats why i probably will never get Abs or get cut like all these other guys here… Oh wellies! I need a drink. hey, maybe i have been drinking alittle more because things going on im my head.. whew! thank god nothing goes on in there, at least thats what my imaginary friend says.. lol well, i better get off of here for i can go and play some football on the 360…yeah, at least i will stay wake and wait for my diva daughter!

"ISSUES!" well, i think i bored the crap outta you today… but you have a great day and night!
