I got my rear kicked again.

Right about now
A hot bath sounds really good. Maybe a hot bath will Help with my soreness. Tabata always kicks my rear. At least this week two other women showed up. When I am the only person in the class I get personal training and I really get my butt kicked. When I said I was glad some other people showed up but I've noticed usually the classes are mostly or all women everyone said men think they already know what they're doing. I thought of all the situations in which men think they know what they're doing and they don't have a clue; number one on the list is sex.
Sunday
It's raining on and off. It rains so much more here than I realized. I went to the gym for Tabata, Taekwando and cardio/Core. I was still sore from Cardio Blast yesterday. I thought I saw the astronaut who was the special guest on Wait Wait Don't Tell Me last Thursday. She was the funniest person. The other people were funny but like every other situation lately; it seemed to be a competition. Everywhere I go and every meeting I'm in people are trying to one up each other. Everybody seems to be hell bent on showing they're smarter than everyone else or more clever than everyone else. I'm bored with it. The people I've met who seem smart never bring it up, they're like those rich people who never bring up money.

Likes me
I got to hold a baby Thursday. She fell asleep in my arms. It reminded me that babies and dogs like me and then I remembered that old men and perverts like me too.

Lurch
As I suspected, people on dating websites choose their favorites based on looks the one guy I went out with from OKCupid had my favorite haircut but then he looked kind of like Lurch.
Things men talk about
Why do men think it's okay to talk about their penises? This week a guy was telling me he had to ask the doctor what he could do to make his erection hard. Now, he takes Cialis and Viagra...I cannot figure out why he thought I need to know anything about his erection. I don't talk to men about my vagina. i avoid talking about it because I don't want any guy thinking my vagina is any of his concern. I think I am like most women and rarely think about my vagina unlike men who think about their dicks frequently and apparently think women are thinking about their dicks and need updates on their dick's status.

Tomorrow
My mom has to have an angiogram. I don't think I have time to go home tonight but maybe this weekend or next. Or wait until the doctor decides what to do...
Last Friday
I went to the gym to do yogalates and the guy who teaches (he looks like he is around 70 or 80 years old) was passing gas while he was exercising. I pretended that I didn't hear it but I wondered if he even knew it was happening because he didn't start talking louder or call off the class or anything. I remember my mom telling me my grandpa was passing gas while he was talking some people about a horse and he just kept on talking so later she said something to him about the gas situation and he said he didn't even know it was happening. Of course, who knows if he was telling the truth and if you're 80 something (like my grandpa was at the time) then you can say whatever you want and fart your ass off; You earned the right.

Favor
I was asked to do a favor today. I needed to check on someone's child; he is autistic. I said yes but was a little nervous because he had not seen me in a while. It went well. Fortunately, he seems to like me. He read to me. The family bought a home from someone I used to be friends with and the house looks completely different. The colors are far more soothing.

Gym
Tabata, Taekwando and the Cardio/Core classes were all good. I like my Sundays at the gym. Because it's Father's Day I felt like I was getting private training. Only one other person showed up for Tabata and she was kind of hostile toward the trainer. Maybe she was having a bad morning. The teacher didn't show up for Taekwando but his teacher came thinking he would workout with us but instead he ended up being our teacher. There were only three of us so we got a great deal of attention and fit in many kicks. The Cardio/Core class was very nice because we were using weights and that was quite a workout. I am enjoying the workouts and I'm glad I finally have something to do here. I mean something to do besides work. I wish my job was a little more important since I spend so much time doing it. Harold is going to have neck surgery this week. He will be out for quite some time. Harold and I have become work friends and I enjoy him. I feel like Harold and I get along well and somehow we are in the boat together at work so to speak. I won't like work as much when he is out. He is one of the only reasons I keep going to work.
Back to life
Men who complain about their wives and ex-wives (whine-bags)
The last guy I went on a few dates with talked about his ex-wife way too much for someone who was over her and one of my friends complains about his wife all the time. I don't think that men realize when they say their ex-wives/wives treat/ed them badly, their ex-wives/wives wouldn't/won't work, emasculated/emasculate them, etc. that it just makes them lose respect in a potential mate's eyes. It is so hard to have respect for a man who can't manage to man up. If a man can't manage to stand up for himself how can he expect anyone to have any respect for him. "Have a little self-respect for goodness sake!"
Kidney
Several months ago i was told to find the MRI of the tumor and cyst in my kidney and take it to the nefrologist so a comparison could be made between the old MRI and a new MRI. Every day I say to myself that it is the day I am going to call and make an appointment. It took my quite a while to find the original MRI, then when I found it I kept thinking that it would prompt me to make the appointment but I get wrapped up in all the tasks I am supposed to complete and never make the call. I usually don't put things off, unless it's cleaning, but for some reason I keep getting side tracked which is just putting it off really. I am going to make the appointment. It is a goal. I have got to go to the doctor and find out what the status of my kidney is.

Saturday
After having a little stomach virus this week, I got back to my routine. I started my Saturday with Cardio Blast and headed over to the farmer's market. I grabbed some veggies. Then I discovered a vintage shop much to the dismay of my credit card. I drove home to meet the girls who are trying to help me get organized (hopeless). At 6:30 I had to take a nap. Now, I am Netflix-ing. Since I am not ready for Orange Is The New Black, I am watching Grey's Anatomy. Meredith is screwing guys from the bar to get over Derek, she's just about to break a guys penis. I dated a guy with a broken penis. It seems like as highly as men think of their penises that if a guy had a broken penis he would get it fixed. I kept trying to think of a good way to bring it up in conversation (no pun intended) but I couldn't and it was a deal breaker. Gil dated a guy with them same problem and she dumped him.I wonder if a guy would dump a woman because she had broken vi-jay-jay.

Sunday
It was a great Sunday. I went to Tabata, Taekwando and cardio/core again. I prepared lots of veggies for my lunches. I was supposed to go for a Coke with a guy but it didn't happen. He kept coming up with places to meet that are very far away from me. I just don't want to add any more long distance relationships to my list. Everyone I know is long distance. Also, the last time I went to a lot of trouble for someone, it was a long distance thing and it was disastrous. I am not up for anything like that again. It sucked driving hours to see someone.

Mary Ellen Mark
Yesterday, I collected my mail. As I was reading my Time magazine, I noticed a picture of Tiny. It was taken by Mary Ellen Mark. She made a documentary with Martin Bell telling the story of Tiny an other homeless in Seattle. Fortunately for me, I took a photography class with Mary Ellen Mark when I was an undergrad at the University of Oklahoma. It was one of the highlights of my life. She was honest at her core and it came across in her work and she was one of the most respectful people I have ever met and I have met a lot of people since I was in the hospitality industry for 30 years. I adored her and admired her perspective. Seeing the picture of Tiny made wonder why it was in Time so I started reading the blurb to find that Mary Ellen Mark passed recently. I was stunned. She was someone I saw as eternal, like her work.

Coworkers
I keep going to work because I really like Harold and Nathan. But Harold is going to have neck surgery and may be off work for weeks on end. If he's off for weeks I am going to be at work even later every night.
Calories in microwave popcorn comment from Nathan
When I was telling Nathan, my supervisor, that June and I got a big kick out of the microwave popcorn box telling how many calories are in microwave popcorn that is unpopped and I thought only a goat could eat the unpopped microwave popcorn, he said, "And goats don't count calories. The goat would just eat the box and all." I thought it was pretty funny.

Realized (microwave popcorn)
Anyone hungry enough to eat unpopped microwave popcorn could not give a shit less how many calories are in in unpopped microwave popcorn so the statement on the box is superfluous.

Calories in microwave popcorn
June asked me how many calories were in some microwave popcorn so I looked at the box and it stated that the popcorn has 220 calories/serving popped and 240 calories/serving unpopped. I just started cracking up because I can't imagine the calories/serving unpopped being even remotely relevant since no one would eat microwave popcorn with out popping it. Maybe a goat could eat since they can eat anything, even glass, stickers, poison ivy...

Used to think it was weird
I finally figured out why people who work out always think they look good even when they don't, especially if they lost quite a bit of weight. I used to think it was weird that people who lost weight would wear things that sometimes weren't appropriate and certainly were not flattering. I went out with someone whose body looked quite a bit older than his head and he seemed to be completely oblivious to it. he sent me a picture and there was a blob of fat above his tight bike shorts. I wondered why he would send that photo. Obviously, he thought the photo looked good. But then when my girlfriend asked to see the picture she pointed at the roll of fat about his bike shorts and asked "What's that?" so it wasn't just me who noticed the pudge. Now, finally, I know what it is: When you work out and get plenty of exercise you feel better so you think you look better whether you do or not. I don't think I look any better yet but I feel better and will stop at a store to grab something or Starbucks for iced tea and think nothing of going in wearing tight workout pants even though I need to lose 10 pounds.
Three hours
I worked out for three hours today; I was the only one who showed up for Tabata so I got the teacher's undivided attention, then I joined the Taekwando class (my first) and then did part of a cardio class. I left with an ass the same size as it was when I arrived though it was a lot more sore and sore feet. I found out that Taekwando is kicking oriented. It was fun. I went to Half Price Books seeking Island In The Stream but left with Death In The Afternoon. When I got home I ate and ate. I was starving after all that exercise. With all the work and working out I am staying out of trouble. Thankfully, I don't have the time or energy to borrow trouble. And I managed to purge some stuff this weekend. I think the purging is going to be an ongoing process. Today was a good day. Friday and Saturday were ok but one of my goals was to get my hair colored; first the girl turned it gray (the color I'm trying to get rid of) and when I called to see if she could get the out she turn it brown. I like my hair blonde and always will. I don't want red hair or black hair or any other color. I like blonde hair. It's a constant quest to find someone who can do what I ask. I asked for blonde with a golden hue not ash...got gray. Went back asked for blonde with a golden hue ...got brown. After my hair gets a little rest, I'll try again. It's almost as hard to find a good hair dresser as it is a good man.
Lists
Some of the criteria men list on dating sites like, OKCupid are beyond realistic. They're not only delusional about themselves, they're delusional about women and the women they could possible attract.
Wonder
I wonder how many people regret getting divorced when they're alone. If you've always been alone you're used to it and it's normal. If you're used to be with someone then you're not then being alone is the new normal.

Forgot to mention
On my list of the things all men say to women: I forgot to mention they all complain about their wives gaining weight, no matter big their bellies are or how fat their asses are. They seem to be able to criticize their ex-wives while avoiding the mirror: what do ya know, men can multi-task after all.
sex pill for women
On the Today Show this morning, it was reported that the FDA has approved a pill to increase the sex drive of women. I didn't think a pill was needed: all the women I know increased their sex drives by getting a divorce;-)

Electronics
When I mentioned to a friend that my phone messes up and that I just had to refresh my computer for the fifth time lately, he said it's probably the same thing in me that makes watches not work on me. I don't make that many calls and this phone has lasted longer than any other that I've bought over the last few years. I guess the jury is still out on the laptop, maybe it will last a while if I keep refreshing it frequently. i always tell people if they are sick of one of their phones or other electronics and would like to upgrade just let me use it and it go crazy, maybe even have a mind of its own and need to be replaced. I'm like one of those people the casinos send over to tables to make people lose. I don't think I''m hexed but I have some strange biorhythm or something going on.

Follow up
I got a follow up email from the dealership: over $5,000.00 of work needed. I could get a whole different car for $5,000.00. I just bought the car a short time ago so I'm wondering if all the work was needed when I bought it.
Music
The tenth season of Grey's Anatomy the music changed. The music is older but it's not performed by the original artists most of the time. Some of the songs are old ones that I liked and in some cases loved. I'm glad to hear some of my favorites in a popular show.

Again
I was trying to change my clothes and get to my yoga class at lunch when I felt something in my yoga pants. I looked down and there was a fabric softener sheet. Quite a few times I have gotten to work and felt something in my pants and after shaking my leg to see if I could dislodge whatever found it's way up my pant leg a fabric softener sheet came out. I wonder if that happens to other people.
Three dates
Over the weekend, I read something that said men fall in love after three dates while women don't fall in love until after 14 dates. I kept trying to remember the last time I went on 14 dates. And it was 2009. That's the last time I had a boyfriend. I'm definitely in a drought.
Oil change
I spent two (2) hours and 40 minutes at the dealership getting an oil change. I usually go to places that get you in and out and I like it. I don't usually go to the dealership but I had a coupon. I ended up taking a nap I was there so long. I rolled up my jacket and laid my head on it. Afterwards three people said something to me. One man with an English accent said that I must be really tired. Another lady said the chairs are really comfortable at the dealership. And one man said something about coming by while I was asleep. I made the same reply to each person, "I work really hard." And I haven't been sleeping enough. I have been having trouble going to sleep for some reason. Of course, I don't want to get up in the morning since I didn't get to sleep until midnight and my alarm is set for 5:00 A.M. I don't know if I get stressed because I can't everything done at work or what but it's getting old. Maybe James could do some hypnotherapy with me soon, it might be helpful.

Came to light over the last few months
I didn't realize that guys tell women all the same lines:
I should have gotten a divorce a long time ago;
My ex-wife was lazy, never did this or that;
My ex-wife cheated on me;
My ex-wife didn't do this for me or that for me sexually;
My ex-wife was selfish;
My ex-wife was spoiled;
Yadda, yadda, yadda
After reading messages on OKCupid, various emails and talking to guys on the phone, it seems like they all have the same story. It's enough to scare crap out anyone, not just me.
