Random Roll on a Saturday

It's been a while since I fucked things up...

So I might as well get started!

If you ain't Got One, then Get One!

There's always one of these...

Aaaah.... Now that's nice!

Let's get these babies seasoned up...

And quit...

Talking about Beauty and a Beast...

Check out Janet Black - 2nd ranked in the WORLD in 40 - 45 Women's Crossfit - knocking out some HEAVY Overhead Squats...

She'll be competing in the Women's CrossFit World Championships in Cali in July.

And I am honored and privileged to be working out with her and the Cat that coaches her!

If that don't get your Man blood pumping, you're either Stupid or Dead!

How's that Saturday working for you?

Are You a Vegetarian?

Had the same guy at HEB ask me that the last couple of times I checked out...

It wasn't too long ago I wouldn't have been asked that question and if I had been I would've laughed.

I'm not laughing now.... At least about the possibility of being a vegetarian.

I mean take a look at my HEB shopping cart....

2 meats and about 20 fruits and vegetables!

Why?

First of all - it meets the Paleo diet criteria....

Second - it's healthy and, when I eat what's in this cart prepared simply with good seasoning, I look and feel great.

Third - I'm putting my mind and body under a tremendous amount of stress with the work and workouts I do. I've got to be sharp, think clearly, solve problems and knock out some brutal CrossFit and Boot Camp workouts to boot. My mind and body needs the kind of high value nutrition and recovery with low calorie effect that these foods provide.

Am I a vegetarian?

No.... But I'm getting there.

And that's a Discovery I never expected.

Geez - if it wasn't for Work - Life would be Play!

Boy - that was profound but true.

Life would be a lot better if you didn't have to work but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Packed a lunch and my workout clothes and knocked out 11 hours of work at a good rate -

Did I mention how great it is to be an Independent Contractor and work for myself and not have to work with all the up tight assholes at Down Comical - Oops - did he really say that - that's heresy!

Not really - I got a soft place....

Right up my Ass for Down Comical.

On with the day...

A WOD at CrossFit WMD...

And my arch enemy - the bane of my workout existence - the dreaded...

Overhead Squat...

But hey.... As I told King Will...

You gotta get better just to get to ZERO!

And I have - knocked out 3 reps with 115# - a new PR!

And a very cardio based WOD it was...

Wall balls, Box jumps, KB swings and Sit ups with weight...

Ain't nothing easy at CrossFit!!

Kinda at the bottom but that's OK!!

Got home and threw together a nice meal...

Looks like that pork chop is getting some veggie love - onions, poblano and jalapeño peppers, zucchini.

On deck - a little sweetness and color!

Pack that baby for the Friday night Concert on the Plaza.

And Creatine, Fresca and Sangria!

Dinner and

Music!

Did I mention this has been a Bizzy Friday?

Time to mosie over to the WurstHaus.

And geez - would everybody quit staring at the fucking KT on my knees - that's Kinesiology Tape for you uninformed.

I'm wearing it because it WORKS and it makes my knees feel and function better.

Oh brother - as I was writing this post - I just had another lady come up and ask me if my KT was tattoos?

Gotta love the ignorant South.

Salute!!!

3 beer sampler and music at the WurstHaus

Just another Thursday Night Special with a Bowl that's Warm and Bold...

Sorry - was dreaming I was back at the Lynyrd Skynyrd concert but woke up at El Toro with....

A Coors Lite...

And a custom ordered bowl of Chicken Tortilla Soup....

No Rice No Cheese Double Veggies with diced avocado and fresh jalapeños and pico de gallo...

Everybody in the Pool!

That's the way uh huh I like it uh huh uh huh....

Ok KC... Think it's time we retuned to Skynyrd.

Peace Out.

Hey Cave Man I'm hungry - What's for lunch?

You're hungry?

Hell, I just pedaled over the Alps... In 15 mins...

I finally saw what setting the Dominatrix put on the ergo / kick your ass bicycle whatchamacallit at BzRehab...

18.... 18....

What kind of fucking rehab machine has an 18 on it?

I looked down at the machine registration tag and it said "Ordered by AB 11/16/13".

Figures....

So then I get directed to a new movement on the TRX machine and by now I got this shit down cause it's Sink or Swim, Survival of the Fittest, every Man for himself.

So I'm grinding through a set of 1-legged suspended double under hook reach back and grab your gonads and wrap then around your left shoulder ass busters and I hear El Heffe talking to little Heffe about this new workout she got off www.tortureme.com

And she goes through this whole long description of these exercises that Serena Williams wouid crawl away from and the little doe eyed one asks the Evil Sorceress -

"And these are the Beginner exercises?"

"Beginner Exercises? Are you kidding me? I went straight to the 7th Level of Hell exercises!"

And I'm thinking WTF have I got myself into and quietly gutted out the rest of my rehab exercises and got the hell out of Dodge.

Came home so hungry my stomach thought my throat been cut and threw what was in the fridge out on the counter and put the cast iron skillet on to heat...

Jalapeño seasoned thin cut chicken breast, poblano pepper, sweet mini peppers, squash, 2 small apples, mango and a boiled egg with a partridge in a pear tree standing by.

Decided to throw half a sweet onion in with the diced peppers and sauté for 3 - 5....

Prep the squash and apples...

Combine and turn for 3 more...

Plate the veggies and apples...

And put a minute on chicken little...

Flip and another minute...

Plate and add the diced fresh mango and a few white grapes and a Creatine / Fresca mix...

I got Rachel Ray's 30 down to 12...

Top that AB!!!

Prep for Pain

Gotta have something under the belt for the beating coming from the Smurf crew at BzRehab so I threw together...

Strawberries, Raspberries, Grapes, Boiled egg

Ok AB....

Bring it!

Now this is Music!!!

Definitely in the fast lane this morning!

I already said I want it all and...

Aaah.... Now we're getting down to the nut cuttin'....

That so sought after but rarely attained state of...

I'm always...

Or at least.... In a Mood.

I like walking in the Rain...

What's wrong with that??

Was looking for a theme for the day...

And got it... At a stoplight...

One of my personal favorite acronyms...

Speed Limit
WAO
Wide Ass Open!

What you say about his company,
Is what you say about society.

Sing it Ozzie!

Apologize?

For what?

I'm just being me...

And that's something you should never apologize for...

More Steam Boiler Room!!!

Early Morning Tunes and Thoughts...

Been sleeping with Mozart...

Not sure if that means I'm gay or musically obsessed but I do wake up feeling smarter...

Which is a good thing.

Never been in it....

But truly one of the great and unique voices of my generation.

Way to go LJT... Nice morning temps.

Life kinda creeps up on you and builds up a Wall around you to imprison you

OR

You build a Wall around you to keep the World out...

Either way, you're a Prisoner....

Suggestion Mr. Gorbachev....

TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!!!

And bust out of Pandora's Box and....

Do Your Own Walk....

Been trying something different over the last couple of weeks....

Get up.... Have a cup of coffee... Take a shit.... Stretch... Go get a Grande Cafe Americano at the new Starbucks...

How's that working for me?

I like it.

I don't get as much work done and I don't make as much money but I feel better....

Hmmm.... Maybe I'm onto something....

Now.... What's missing?

Oh yeah....
