my senses, CIAA, and working out; Random as usual!

let me start off by saying I have on the world's worst trouser socks today. The left one has 2 BIG holes and runs at the top and the right one keeps creeping down. I put canola oil in my hair this morning, not sure why but it sounds good at the time, until I got a whiff and I smelled like COOKING OIL!! So then I went and put oil sheen on it to counteract the cooking oil smell! I know olive oil is good for your hair I don't know WHY I though canola would be too.

OK now that's out of the way!

Sensory Overload
I've been dragging my feet about blogging about my CIAA weekend in Charlotte. Not sure why. It was alot of stuff and outfit and things going on and it started at the airport. SO I find a seat in one of those leather(ette) chairs that has the plugs and stuff for your computer or whatever. I'm sitting next to a white couple who were maybe in their 50's. A woman... a rather large woman walks by in camo stretch pants or leggings and I instantly think Where do you go to find leggings in size way-the-fuck-too-big?!?! So the couple says something and then say 'well she's pretty confident!' And I bust out laughing and they're like OMG did you hear what we said and I said YES and I was thinking the same thing, in fact where do one even find pants in her size?!? I put my headphones on at this point only to see my next WTF... So I know you might be travelling to somewhere warm, but its February in Baltimore. What made you think pulling out your thin linen pants was a good idea? Finally get on the plane and I see a dude with gold teeth on his 'vampire' teeth AND a Louis Vuitton man bag!! This is too much for one day and one sitting LOL I haven't even gotten to Charlotte yet!

My girlfriend picked me up and I had to change real quick cause we were going to da club!! Now I am really not in club mode anymore. I go so rarely nowadays that when my cousin who came to town when I was in Charlotte asked me where to go in Baltimore I was at a complete loss. We had a blast POPPING BOOTLES (well twist off moscato bottles LOL)in VIP!! It sounds good right?!? LOL That's my story and I'm sticking to it!! Now I will blame it on the aaa-aaa-aaaaKIHOL cause I attempted to drop it like it was hot, but it was kinda just luke warm!! I still got a standing ovation from some random dudes to which they were told NOT to encourage me (which was right) I can't even remember the name of the club.

Friday was the VSU (Virginia State University... which is where I matriculated LOL) day party! VIP again cause dats how we rolls! LOL So we walk into a cigar filled outdoor party... and then inside. WOW so many people and did they all go to VSU or was I such a nerd I just don't know none of these folks?!? Most likely the latter. I didn't really come out of my shell until I got to Baltimore where I acted a pure an utter fool for several years WHEW good times!! SO anyways I did see a few people I remembered. The host was Lorenzo 'Ice T' Thomas who went to State and who I had an unexplainable crush on when he dj'd in Baltimore. The party was really nice!!

That night (or was it Saturday I'm getting my days confused) we did the 'hang out at the hotel thing' and this is when my senses were overloaded again. I'll try to keep it short.... if you can't bend down in what you have on OR if you look at any hip hop video and you have the same outfit on OR if you feel the need to not wear a coat and it's 30 degrees cause you want to show off the outfit then you have NO sense and your friends really aren't your friends cause if they look the same way you do and YOU ALL thought it was a good idea then you are all idiots!! I get wanting to look cute but I really don't know the type of attention you are seeking or think you might get when you wear something so short, tight and otherwise ill fitting. 2 young chicks in particular came in with swimsuits, well at least that's what they looked like, and fancy pantyhose (LOL). I had had enough at that point.

I think Saturday we ended up at the Ritz Carlton and then a cute little wine bar... Needless to say I had a great weekend with my girls!!

Randomness
so I think I am the only person who watches the toilet flush completely at my job hence all the liners that are in place and other crap (literally!!) in the toilets when I enter. Sad but true!!

I'm not sure why I am having this issue lately, you don't have to tell me what to think or say! I'm real grown and I can do that ALL BY MYSELF!! And if you don't like what I have to say, then stop talking to me!!

Speaking of asking me something... so yesterday I'm at Forman Mills which is next to Planet Fitness which I just joined last week (more on that later). They really didn't have what I was looking for which is a terry cloth headband for yoga cause the sweat be getting all up in my eyes and it's bad enough when I take off my glasses I can't see a thing. So I'm at the cash register and the woman in front of me holds up this white suit, well pants and vest with this powder blue shirt, this hideous print on the tie and the back of the vest AND a pocket square. She asks the cashier, you think this is ugly?!?! The cashier is looking like Welll... uuuhhh..... ummm... And I'm standing there like PLEASE don't ask me!!! So, what does she do?!? She then she turns to me and says well my husband said he didn't like it, DO YOU?!? And I said NO!!! And then I ask how old is the little boy she said 7, THEN the cashier chimes in now!! She said you gonna dress him in ALL WHITE?!?! To which I said yeah don't do that to the baby!! She looked real miffed like these bitches right here! And I saw the look and I said WELL YOU ASKED!! It wasn't even a little bit cute and the blue was kinda tourquoisey powdery blue... not even a pretty shade of blue AND THE PRINT was several shades of blue and pink! It was just bad, and I can pat myself on the back for saving the child at least from THAT outfit.

Man I hate when I eat and then feel like I didn't and am ready to eat a cow...

Planet Fitness!
So I am diligently trying to get my workout on. I attempted the women's only gym, I'm doing yoga, and Zumba every so often, but I knew I needed to amp my routine up. And just for the record I am down 20 pounds which is freaking great!! SO I have a few friends that belong to Planet Fitness or something similar and the commercials said it was only 10 bucks with no contract. So I can see paying that as opposed to 40 bucks AND being locked into a 1 or 2 year contract. So I did everything online and went in hopping all I had to do was show my license and get moving. 45 minutes later I'm still standing at the front desk getting checked in. So although that wasn't the smoothest thing I still had hopes for the place. My goal is purely cardio. I need to get on the treadmill or elliptical or bike work it out for about 30-45 minutes and go! I am not interested in weight training in fact, I am pretty solid under the many layers. I've only been there 3 times so far. Day 1 - I get on the treadmill and really just try not to look at anyone. The energy is already different. Men have such a primal energy especially when working out. Now I must admit there were a few cuties and then there were those that were NOT! I watched Family Feud and tried not to sing to loud. Day 2 - I sign in and immediately dude from WAAAAAAAAYY in the back stops take a swig of water and just flat out checks me out! Now this should be flattering but it's not. I'm just thinking STOP LOOKING AT ME!! It was right then and there I knew I couldn't do spandex here. So I need to head to Wal-Mart and get more sweat pants. It just makes me so self-aware. Like are you looking at my cellulite?!? Day 3 was pretty uneventful except for the cramp in my foot when I was on the elliptical and the cutie doing 60 pound weight in front of me well he was cute til I looked down at his legs and they were hella ashy! I had to suppress an out loud laugh!! In general Under Amour is making a killing at these places. I was only a fan of muscle shirts for about 10 minutes, but at least they are wearing them at the right place.

no really what happend to SPELL CHECK on this thing?!?!?  OOOOhhh you gotta chnage to compose hmmm...
