fatrockstarWhat about it? Oh, it's getting smaller. That's new. I've had this ghetto booty for so long you'd think I'd be happy to be rid of it, really. Instead I'm a little distressed. How dare it wait this long to finally shink?! Seriously!!
On the advice of a trainer at my gym I've been pushing the cardio harder. When I got back from Steamboat I did a week of 70-75% MHR and then did my best to advance to 80%. It's harder than it seems. I can get my heart rate up there without a problem, it's keeping it from climbing further that's proving the challenge. I'm also paranoid about giving myself a heart attack. The weight hasn't been falling off -- instead it's been shifting a little. Build muscle? Not sure. My legs and rear-end have always been "meaty."
While my dad was here this weekend I showed him the wonder that is the Wii. Then I strained my shoulder playing Wii Baseball. @#!!. No more Wii for me unless I shift to the left for a while.
This week I have a few things lined up. Don't want to jinx it, so no more on that for now.
Today I ran into my in-law's, and my BIL is still in need of female vocals for his single. The girl he recorded with was not working out like he hoped, and he asked if I was still available. Well, of course I'm available. I'd even get to rewrite the lyrics. I live for that stuff. Writing a song from scratch is very frustrating for me since my instrument skills are weak. Everything about the arrangement is in my head, and the most I can do is vocalize what I think it should sound like. That's another entry, though. I think it's cool he still wants to work with me.
I just have to get my shit together for this week. Everything else will fall into place.
