cake walk

And I don't even like chocolate!

I ate it like I liked it, though.

4 chunks of old stale cake.

From last week.

Not just a photo - op;

I really ate it.

(Don't double dog dare a dumb ass!)

Partly cloudy?

I only seem to see the clouds.

Barriers

Trees and the pseudo forest. I already know.

 

Some meaning is missing. Or joy.

I have "failure to thrive" these days.

Trucky is getting new spark plugs.

She mirrors my condition.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Some kind of feeling -

I can't name it - anxiety?

Remorse? Something in the past 

Projected into the future.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

This just in: $400 later for Trucky

It ain't nothing but a thang, right?

My boss thinks I have an eating disorder.

Really? What was your first clue?

She also thinks blogging is bad for me right now.

Cake and innuendo and being upset.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

So no more cake.

 And I already know.

giddy*up

It's perfect weather for a truck ride together with you ♫♪♫

All I wanna do is to thank you, even though I don't know who you are

You let me change lanes, while I was driving in my car ♪♫♬

Not too hot for me

Your wife really IS hot, though, maybe

I've got to think - do I know these people?

Named after the wonderful Clara Barton?

I kid, I kid!

New office post-it notes

Before I got bit by a wee, little, little dog....

...with razor sharp teeth! (about 1,000 of them)

I still have chills on both arms

.....................................................

Monster no protein today

(...just one for the entire day)

Coffee no cream today

(...again, just one in the morning)

Water no food today

One bite of cottage cheese to take Advil with

And off to bed I go today

Oh, and I almost forgot - 9972 steps at work today!

Thanks for reading - hope your day is awesome today!

car tunes

What a fun day for a joy ride!

Yay for the sun and having the top down!

A traffic jam - no problem!

Once upon a time, we would "lay out" in summer.

What did you call it?

"Work" on getting a tan.

Was it this hot 40 years ago?

...................................

Ok. One hour later. Still stuck in traffic.

"I am the Great Cornholio!

I come from Lake TitiCaca!"

"You will give me TP, bung-holio!

Are you threatening me?"

"I want a crappicino

and a hall pass!"

..........................

I was a "Beavis and Butt-head" fan back in the day.

(Hence the title - car tunes - cartoons!)

The table was blocking the door.

We don't know why.

Sat there anyways.

A Mayo Burger at Jack In The Crack

Aptly named, if only for the Crack food.

Clarice?

Back on the home front, the ice cream truck plays a little tune

as it goes down the street.

It's Monster Time.....

Ah, a cold one - I usually have them at room temp.

But no more!

...............................................
Monster w/protein
Grilled Chicken Salad from Jack In the Box
Gatorade SF
Atkins Bar
Water, water, and more water...

4,000 steps today. Two showers. Potassium.
Got my car, er, rather my truck back. I found $55 in the console!
And to think - I was losing my faith in humanity.
I hope your week is going well for you!

stuck like chuck

...fun in da sun

walking after midnight

My pedometer came from Brookstone 

here's a link

It has a 7 day memory and calculates everything.

Steps, miles, calories, "g" reading -  what ever that is.

Built in accelerometer... accurate in 3 planes

The Durango and I are getting along famously

What's not to like?

But I was up to my old tricks in chapters 4, 5, and 6

(from Elvis Costello: "Every Day I Write The Blog Book")

Which goes first? Red-orange or orange-red?

Did you keep your Crayola Box in order?

VPX Protein Rush Drink 

With 48 Grams of designer protein

Made by the same people who make 

Redline Energy Drinks and Zero Impact Bars

Yesterday I mentioned my hair grows thick and fast.

Today I noticed my nails do to.

Must be the protein!

Came home last night and my front door was wide open.

But it's ok - I live in a good neighborhood.

I should! This is one of my neighbors!

....................................................................

Monster w/protein

Protein drink

Fizzy water 2 liters

Coffee w/cream x2

Atkins Bar

Hard-Boiled Egg

Cottage Cheese

Hamburger patty - it was just not good - didn't finish it

So many cashews - I don't ever want to see another cashew again!

...until next time, that is!  I had 2 or 3 servings. (More like 3, I would say.)

Cashews are my "problem child"...

One serving is one ounce or about 30 grams...plus all that sodium....yuk!

 click the pic!

A screen shot, and a link to Nutritional Data.com

Even with the cashew overdose, it's still within an acceptable range, 

but I wouldn't recommend it... it's never worth it.

The only thing I've ever over-indulged on (since going LoCarb)

has been cashews - my only craving! Other than caffeine.

How can I complain about other people's behaviour when I

myself am my own worst enemy?! Phooey on cashews!

.....................................................

7800 steps at work....no post-work work-out post tonight!

Hope you are having a good week...  a really great week!

it lives

June '10

August '09

six months into LoCarbing

December '08.............................June '10

before I went on Atkins..............compared to................now-a-days

Same hair, though....

It's so thick (I'm not complaining)

and healthy ☺

I have to get it thinned-out every few weeks, 

as well as cut....

It's obviously time for a trim!

My hair was gray long before LC 

So don't nobody go off hating.....

Don't blame Atkins... blame Mrs. Clairol!

Blame that I'm almost 50.

*gasp!*

Ah, weight loss is a work in progress....

That's what's so hard to keep in mind

When the results are slow in coming.

But it happens. Every day.

So why not? 

I'm asking ya...Why the heck not?

It could happen! And is and does.

Wait for it.....while you work it!

Quotes from Frankenstein:

• 
  
  • "The agony of my feelings allowed me no respite; 
  • no incident occurred from which my rage and misery could not extract its food..."
  • 
    
  • "I do know that for the sympathy of one living being, I would make peace with all. 
  • I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine 
  • and rage the likes of which you would not believe. 
  • If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other."  The Monster - 
  • [Perhaps the ego? I'm guessing here.]

My best boss in the world loaned me a Dodge to drive
After she saw how determined I am to work
I took a cab (cost almost 50 bones....one way)
Not complaining, actually - glad to have the job and the hours!
.................................................................................
5,000 steps at work....walked 30 minutes + cuz the cab was sooooo early
30 minutes on the tread mill after work. But didn't wear the weighted vest.

 

a packed lunch and a wild ride to work

Hope you are having a great weekend!

schadenfreude

Here in Texas, the sign kids wear toques with shorts.

And lederhosen.

You can't fight fashion!

Poor blogger - it can't get the spacing right today,

and the last post was done in HyperTextNightmareLanguage.

It didn't respond to any commands or changes.

A perfect example of doing something right

but having it not work anyways.

The error is sometimes on a higher level.

Or lower level, as the case may be.

Bogged down in the blogs, I guess.

An internal glitch?

It didn't even list any blogs I am following  

And no, I don't have a Mac Virus.

So I did it this way, eh? 

Hope your weekend is wonderful!
