Thanks for the Genetics, Pops!

Greetings!

Our double header weekend was quite eventful. I got a crazy dark tan that someone has commented on every single day this week. My sock tan is insane!!! We won one game and lost the other one. We beat the same team that we had beat before but it was a good win. We played hard and really unified. The next game we were tied 1-1 at halftime. Then we lost hold of emotions, people stopped trying, and it seemed like we just stopped caring so we ended up losing by 2 touchdowns or something. I'm not sure as I just know that we lost and that's all that matters.

The rest of the weekend I just watched football! What else is new? This season my top three teams to watch and cheer for are Chicago, Miami and New England. I am giving up on the Cowboys this season as they just never fail to disappoint. I love Jason Witten but they will never go anywhere with Jones as the owner and Romo at the helm. It's so unpredictable.

This week has been interesting. I am sosososososo over coffee and caffeine and any drink from Starbucks. A year will do that to you. I have been in really tired/annoyed moods this week as I am really feeling like I need a vacation, to get out of the same day after day routine and need out of this job. Just biding my time. The more positive I am right now though will make it bearable and not so bad. It's not really that terrible, it's just that I have been stuck in a rut this week and need a change of pace. Along comes this weekend . . .

My friend from work, Diana, has a cabin at Cultus Lake and so Saturday after my game and I get my hair cut at Leia's salon, we are heading up to the lake for the night. We are renting a movie, doing some baking and just relaxing. Then Sunday we might head downtown Vancouver to get a manicure and maybe a massage! I am so pumped to get away and just unwind.

Speaking of which, I can't wait for my parents to visit in October. That time can't come soon enough. I shouldn't have to wait so long to see two of the most important people in my life! We will definitely have a great time!!!!!!

The whole thing with the genetics title is just that I gain muscle like crazy! I have been doing a different workout this week with plenty of protein and I feel jacked. I feel very, very strong though and I love that feeling. I am just getting prepared for my personal training course. I really believe that people need to lead by example if they are in a position of leadership. I know that I really respect people that walk the talk and do things that are admirable, so I hope that if I look the part and eat healthy that my clients will make greater gains in their health and fitness.

Side note: I made some awesome pulled pork mini sliders for my college and career potluck tonight! They were a hit.

Later days!
