Its hot here, guys.

Yuuurghble. If there's one thing I miss about living with my parents, its air con. I really had to open with this tidbit of information, in order to explain away my rambling if I ramble, or sudden change of topic if I do that... I'm braindead today.

First order of business, my butt.


Some of you might remember that I've been attempting to get in shape for a few months now. I started off just doing yoga, because balance is a major issue for me. I fell into a fan the other day, just walking along and then BAM I'm sideways. So yeah, it began with yoga for that, and for my flexibility- and without being too graphic, um, how can I put this delicately and ladylike... I can't. I'll just say my flexibility is better. Use your imagination.

Then I actually started eating slightly healthier- just trying to cut back on the pizza and the whole packs of chips in one sitting. I'm LOADS better now, I only eat half a pizza as opposed to a whole one and I really don't remember the last time I sat down at home with a pack of chips. Then came the ipod workouts. I was pretty good for a long time, doing at least two 10 minute workouts a day plus the yoga, but that got reaaally boring. So, POP pilates was started. Its freaking intense. Google it- this lady is a machine. I've started using her catchphrase, "You got this!" but God does it annoy me when I've stopped following along with the moves and am just lying on the floor yelling at her "I DON'T GOT THIS, HO" (Her last name is Ho, just sayin'). Its tragic.

Soooo with the recent acquisition of my boy's brother's kinect, I bought myself the Your Shape 2012 game. Its been great so far, though my arms are so sore I can't get a mixing bowl down from the top cupboard today, my arms just wont go up that high. I'm feeling pretty good about this "fitness" thing. Although I'm a long way from actually being physically fit- I get puffed out so easily, I'm weak as a newborn- my body has started showing signs of improving. My cellulite has essentially halved in ugliness, and my butt is definitely firmer.

So (epic segue here) when I saw a Zivity prize for a butt set, I didn't feel mortified at the thought of entering, and I shot one yesterday.



I'm really going to step up my game over there, because money is becoming increasingly more of a worry for me. My boss seems hellbent on annoying me enough to quit, since I'm costing them too much money. I have ZERO shifts for the next fortnight. Thanks guys. Way to be loyal to someone who's been loyal to your sorry asses. So my first check arrives soon and unfortunately probably wont be going towards new ink... It'll probably be spent on toothpaste and 50c pasta. Woo, adulthood!



Ever played Civilisation, the board game? They tell you if you play advanced, it'll last 6 hours. Well, 6 hours in, we'd only just advanced from the ancient era. I had to leave, and got a message another 6 hours later saying THEY WERE STILL GOING.




I found this googling it. This was pretty much us. I'm the guy at the back on the right.

On another, much more awesome but still nerdy in a different way,

I HAVE THIS.

ITS SO HEAVY. I CAN USE IT IN PLACE OF WEIGHTS. WHY AM I STILL TYPING IN CAPS? I'M JUST SO EXCITED! Sorry bout that. I'm a hundred pages in (of over 500) and I've learnt so much about the making of the movies, its fantastic. Highly recommended to any HP fan.

I'm going to leave this off here, because I want to read some more, but first I need to do some laundry, and then I've gotta work out, and then I've gotta hang the laundry to dry, and tonight I'm making my living room into a giant fort for a surprise for my boy and we'll watch Sherlock or Die Hard or something. Its only 11:17am and I've done so much today but so much more needs to be done. I'll be pooped before 8pm, guaranteed.

Much love
