WOW! Gas is cheaper... Haven't paid these prices for a few years!!!

Tonight I finished up my run and decided I was bored still, so I would go fill my car up with gasoline. I drove to Fred Meyer's and got there, the stupid pump would not take my card, which was just of how my day has been going ( I seriously wake up on the wrong side of the day most of the time). I finally go to the attendant and he assists me so the machine would accept my card, dang it I know I am broke but I have got to have enough to cover gas for this fill up... I only fill up twice a month. So I only paid $1.769/gl so after filling up, which was only half a tank because I never go below.. just in case I have no money and have to drive some place, I like to play it safe. So I only paid $12.58 total, how nice is that?!????
Before I filled up my car, I decided to go run, I was going to go run earlier but got lazy and laid around the house watching the television and eating crap food. Seriously it was crap food, I chowed down a cup of whole wheat pasta, a muffin ( the entire muffin) granted I was full after the muffin, but did that stop me... No, I ate some pineapple and cottage cheese after that. Yea, so I think tht is why I had been grumpy. Well, it does not help that I showered and noticed my hair looks like crap, yea I am a freak about my hair, I really want to go back to that beatician who cut it, she knows how picky I am and told me she knew what she was doing, I am so glad I did not tip her! I am sure the ladys in the shop do not lik to see me walk in, I nit pick my hair really bad, and now because she did a bad job I have the little puffs on the sides of my head. My hair does its own thing so I have to get it cut a certain way. See pics below to see how I like it done.. the first pic demonstrates how it should be with out getting a cut for 2 weeks, the last pic shows how it should look after getting it cut!





Damn I'm fine!!
Well, enough of me, NOT.. this is all about me. But enough of the downer stuff, it is making me feel worse. Therefore I shall redirect my attention to something else...
So after reading Jenn's blog I thought about why think of the bad stuff, why not take some of my own medicine and count my blessings and be thanksfull for what I have, I have to admit it did take me a good hour run to clear my head of any bad and negative thoughts. But after dripping sweat and being out of breath I think I got a better grasp on the humility part. I did not run for a straight hour though... 30 minutes is the most I will go, I walked for 30 minutes tonight, but still my heart rate was good so I actually had sweat dripping... I love that feeling!!
I guess it is a neucance to me to have people think that I am over weight because I am lazy, a few of us had that conversation recently, I figure I can either tell people I work out all the time or I can be quiet and let them think that I am lazy and just set in front of a computer all day. Well, I guess for the peole I was talking with I choose the later. I figure they can think what they want and I can keep doing what I do to find what will work for me now. I swear my body keeps changing, what worked 2 years ago wont work now. I can run with someone 3 years younger and not break a sweat as to them, they are driping sweat... I just do not understand that part of it.
So I just burnt some brown rice, does anyone know how to messure out water and rice ratios for brown rice? I always run out of water, and then it is kind of crunchy, which I dont like.

Intermission...... Reno 911 is on!

Ok, well I do not feel like typing now, Reno 911 makes me lagh. I am now going to go play rockband 2, we got it and I am figureing out how to do it. I feel like such a weirdo because I am so dumb at these games.
Any help on the brown rice would be great. Thanks

Addiction!

Well, what can I say? I have an addiction that I am battling alone, it is so hard! No one knows how hard it really is to battle yourself on addiction. I wish I could say I was addicted to working out, but that is not the case, I believe I have gained about 100 pounds in the past year. This addiction is hard, I even had to go to head to Costco to get my hook up for my addiction, its pricey too. Its just out of control!

On a happier note, I am not crazily angry that Obama the Muslim got the vote, I am scared for dang sure. I am happy that all that crazy crap is over with. See, I would usually drop a little dirt bomb there, but I am cleaning that up very well.... speaking of dirt bombs-- last night in the hot tub we were chit chatting and being really loud when "G-Wagg" brought up "the runs" story. This is the funniest story ever!!! She was telling us her uncle calls it the "Hershey Squirts" is that not the funniest thing you have heard? I laughed so hard.... I have no idea why it humors me so much but it sure does! Her BFF thinks I need to meet her whole family because I guess I am just like them, in the way that I am loud, laugh at dumb things, and be really weird. Maybe another time I will, but for now no way... hahaha

I am feeding my addiction right now, sadly enough I should be going to bed but I am typing a blog and giving into addiction. Whats worse is I have drank almost 1.5gallons of water today!!! that is crazy! I do admit I am a firm believer in lots of water, but maybe that is too much-- I just barely, like serioulsy 15 minutes ago realized how much I have drank. That is only because I refilled my mug. I probably should of gulped down some tea...
oh well.. whatever, life rolls on

Politics

So voting is opened up and the big day is Tuesday November 4th, well I have lately talked to alot of people who discuss politics and people who are young that feel that if they vote for Obama that he will represent younger views. I don't generally argue with peoples personal views, for it is a personal stance and I respect them for their thoughts. I must say that I, in the last 6-12months, have noticed an overwhelming flow of information readily avaible to the U.S. citizens that demonstrate the ideology of Senator Obama, I despiese him as a runner for the highest office in America. He as a "citizen" does not show support, respect, and unity of our nation and what we truley stand for. The things I have read of him are things that most people I know who support him would not do so if they knew those things, but they are caught up in the thought process of trying to get "new ideas" into our politics and anit war propiganda. So they feel that Senator Obama is the right choice. I am not saying that McCain is the right choice either, we have five choices on the ballots this election, did you know that? I know most do not becuase they only follow main stream media and that is ussusally CNN or FOX news networks, and all you hear about is the two majority parties. So there is that, I do think that in the religious asspect that something is going on, just how the things are going with the economys or the world and our nation. I found a video and I think you may enjoy it if you follow politics at all.
