Way down in the hole...

Blah.

I was doing so good working out until I stopped working out. o_O I decided not to do P90x because I can't find all the equipment I need for it. I ordered Insanity and it's sitting on the corner waiting to be used. I was down 6 pounds as of yesterday but I'm sure I gained some back from the pigging out I did today. I need motivation. The wedding for some reason isn't enough :(




Oh. And I'm pretty much unemployed again. Welp.

We are Trayvon Martin

RIP TRAYVON MARTIN

If you're not familiar with the case you can read some details here and here.

Short summary:
On February 26, Trayvon Martin had just left the store for snacks. He was followed by George Zimmerman, who called 911 and reported Trayvon as a suspicious suspect and a threat DESPITE Zimmerman being armed. George was also told not to confront Trayvon Martin. However Zimmerman chased, shot and killed 17 yr old Trayvon. At this time this murderer has not been arrested. 


The horrific 911 call of this tragic event. Caution: Not for the faint of heart, I have not listened to this audio AT ALL.



You can sign this petition to support prosecuting George Zimmerman for this crime here!



2012 is not a post racial world, smh.

*signs 'I love you' to President Obama* :)

President Obama will always be Mr. Smooth in my eyes. He seems so personable and humble.



Obama made that young man's day, maybe life.

Mad Men + Christina Hendricks= Love on Top























Christina Hendricks is who I want to be when I grow up. Her body is awesooooome. *stares at the above pictures* Um, yeah there's a reason I was writing this post, give me a minute.... Oh, Mad Men is coming back! After a nearly 2 year hiatus, my HD tv will be graced with the above buxom princess and all my fave characters on March 25th.


My heart dropped just like looking at Christina's pictures.


Y'all ready for cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking and all the smug and smirkness one can muster delivered by smooth ass Don? I am!


My peeps!

Weekly Wrap Up


I lost some weight. Down 4 lbs in two weeks. I'm not impressed. I could have lost more if I completed more cardio and eliminated some carbs. I now have 397 more pounds to drop before June 17, 2012. It's fastly approaching and I have to get on that good foot.

I know I said something about before pictures... BUT I'll have some soon. I'm starting p90x tomorrow and really want y'all to see some real progress since I intend to go hard. My wedduing dress is form fitting and I want to look right. Which also means no spanx. How uncomfortable will that be after 5+ hours, ugh.


*thinks...*

Um, what's new... Oh, I continue to hate my job. Me makes no money. Me sad. However, I have an interview with an up and coming casino in the banker role Tuesday. I don't know if I want it or not especially since casinos are 365/7. I'd be pissed if I had to work holidays, trust.

And that's that. I haven't been blogging as much as I use to but I've been both busy and/or lazy. Call me out on it ;)

A shorty...

I can't stand timid adults. Speak up for your fucking selves!!!!!

What, the person's going to stop being your friend? So what!!! Get a new damn friend!

What, the person's going to say no? Find someone who will says YES.

All these passive aggressive sh*t needs to go ------> I can't enjoy myself in my own home because of your bs. Dude, not cool.

Use your spine! Jesus Christ, my personal savior gave all of us one. It's free, hone into it.

I had to release this rant from my fingers. I just can't deal!

Whew.

Time to get physical! -Weight loss post-


The wedding of the century is in 3 months, eeeek! Yes, my wedding is fastly approaching. And Officer's superiors are being asswipes. He didn't get our wedding day OR the day after off. Yes I'm pissed and so is he. He's going to take it another step and I'm crossing my fingers and toes that he gets the day approved.

Whew...Enough of that...

I'm fat.

Facts are facts. And I need not to be fat for my wedding. It's in the bride manual, page one. But the kicker is, Officer wants to lose some pounds too. So now I have a get skinny partner, yay! We went grocery shopping together for healthy food Sunday :o) But it's Tuesday and I'm hungry. I'm calorie counting and I think I'm restricting too much? I'm trying to stay at 1100-1150 calories which is not that low. My mind is sending me "get junk food Tierrrrra" vibes.

Later this week I'll post a pic of my booody so I'll have a way to track my weigh loss. I took the battery's out my scale because I have the tendency to weight myself everyday Not good. When the picture (s) go up, no judgment. I'm a bowl of fluff.

P.S. Pray that Officer gets our wedding day off!

Sign my Friendship Contract

I seem to have a little problem. Besides not updating this blog on a regular basis, Wedding, School, Work REPEAT! I've been internally venting about my friendships with certain people. You see, two years ago I was basically without friends. Now you might say, gurl, everybody has friends, whatcha mean? Well, I don't categorize everyone as a friend. We're not in kindergarten, just because we know each other, a friend does not make. So I actively went about finding friends.....

Blah blah blah, I already wrote about how I felt about friendship here.

But...
There is a reason for this post. For the past couple of months, I've been in a runt. I've had some weekends where my kids were with auntiegranniedaddy. I was free but had nowhere to go. Scratch that, I had places to go but no one to go with. Yes, Officer and I went out a couple of times but I needed a girl's night out. Drinking, dancing and being acting sexy. But alas, this did not happen. For whatever reason, me, a person with three kids and multiple things going on, has more availability than everyone I know. Who would have thunk it? Other times when I called texted, everyone had plans that I obviously wasn't invited to. *cues tears*

After having an adult temper tantrum this Saturday because I was basically stood up, I declared to my bedroom furniture, I needed new friends!

But how do you ask someone to be your friend? I've meet people at work, the salon and other places, where I thought to myself, Self she could be your friend. But my problem is I don't know how to turn it into exchanging information. Everything I thought up sounded like a pick up line and that's not hot! *bounces like Tamar*
That's right, bounce like me boo, she, me, her!
I definitely need to draft up some friendship contacts and sent them 1st class to my current friends on some Housewives of Atlanta shit. I will be heard! Or invited out.

I'm so into my feelings y'all. :(

Verizon Wireless wants half Eddie!


For the past 2 months I have been fussing and shaking my fist at Verizon Wireless. For reasons I can't justify now, I switched service from Sprint. After comparing wireless plans, I decided to port my number over to Verizon since they were having a promotion for 4gb of data at $30 a month. I got a free phone and kept on stepping.
