Sassy: July 2006 - 41 & CA Bound

I'm looking forward to some sort of progress - I'm turning into a nervous wreck waiting on things.

21's - they hit ranges & contraction points differently than a full range but doesn't limit the range that you hit. Definitely the one approach that has produced results for me in hams / quads and bis.

I'm sold. ;)

I'll incorporate them this week, ladies. Thank you.


Oh, and ditto on the drunk stories. I have no social life, so I'd like to live vicariously through you.

thanks.









:D
 
Yikes - boy if you all think my "drinking life" is exciting... omg.... I can almost literally tell you the dates of every time I've gone out drinking since 2003.

so I see we're in the same boat. dammit.


Who has a big, whirling, social life that I can pretend I'm a part of? It would be a plus if it involve possible public nakedness and chocolate cake. :nerd:

I need to get out more...

LOL - I went back to the hotel thinking that I was going to get an early night in to face Day 2 of "Fiasco at the Arnold". Instead my whole group (sans boss) were sitting in the hotel bar getting loaded. More rum & cokes later, we went back to the guys' room for more booze & laughed at the dozen or so boxes of "hard body gear". God.

You guys were BY FAR the highlight of that weekend.

He says it will most likely be early next week - to which I respond "I'll be on the other side of the country until Thurs nite." So it might be a phone interview. This sux because I really want to rock this guy's socks. But see what happens.

I guess I am giving myself leaway on the diet because either I have no appetite at all or life these days just requires a few mega cheats and I'm just not worried about it right now.

"Saved by the Bell" reruns were what got me thru my 5 am cardio at my gym prepping for my first competition.

I love the mega cheats, but no appetite is not good! I wish I could take all your stress away! :heart: The home and garden television and ROBTV are helping me get through mine, but not at 5am!
 
Thx :) I gotta get my house all cleaned up again --- dammit I wish those people would just buy my house & be done with it!
 
Probably offline for the next day or two - travel to LA tomorrow, back Thurs.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!!!!!

Relax time for me now! Woooo I'm in pain today!!

;) :coffee: Time!!
 
Big hugs & kisses to you guys! & Ghede comes out of the woodwork ! Glad to see you hun!

Its been nice to not be on a computer for a few days. Still bopping around before my convention starts tomorrow. Good times & definitely a little detox time. Just a quick drop in - probably on more in the next few days when I get into my hotel.

XOXOXOX!
 
Hey girls :) Finally got into a hotel w/ internet connectivity! First day at the convention - nothing real exciting but meeting up w/ some people at a happy hr thing tonite. Nice weather tho :)
 
Good time out tonite - got into a company sponsored happy hr, met some potentially good contacts and then got onto a "party bus" and ended up at some other bar we had to use a friend of a friend's hiphop connections to get into, and then drank on someone else's company tab. Then caught a cab to In & Out and then dropped off back at my hotel for free :) Gotta love free!

I could so use a day at the gym!

Hey has anyone ever seen "The World's Tallest Runway & Bikini Model" at the Olympia? Her name is Alexis Skye - she was working one of the booths at this convention - I was like "Hey I know you...!" Funny.

So, off to bed :)
 
MMMmmmmm. In & Out.

I'll have a #3 protein style with grilled onions. Hold the uber delicious fries, cause I can't eat 'just one'. :D

Glad to see you're having fun. Hope you're dressed to the nines and flexing those huge biceps...

Hey sweetie!


Well, not sure I really care that I'm back in the ATL or not. My cat certainly gave me an earful when I got into the house last nite. Wherever he is, is where "home" is. :)

So what has changed since I got home?

LMAO! ... nothing.

15 Sept 2006 (Fri)
===============

House: no response -- 2 weeks now on the counter offer.

Job: told the recruiter for the local job that I'm home & we can set up more onsite interviews for next week. Got a call from another local company & left some msgs to get with them to get an interview. Trying to get some money back from this useless career company, but since they dont' seem to have email records or phone records, I have to produce it all (which I can, but they fail miserably at CYA....) Tentatively all I can get back is 25% of my fee. Which sucks moose balls. Have to see how that turns out after I send them all the emails I have. I"m also including my phone records to show lack of response & what transpired during those phone calls. What an amazing load of shit.

Diet: random today.

Training: not for the last 7 days. Back tomorrow.




Wohoo. LOL!
 
ck2006 said:
Was the trip good?

It was - I got to catch up w/ a couple good friends and saw more of the area. It is so beautiful out there and you constantly run into amazing people - the famous and the quietly famous. There's such a spirit of "it can be done" out there.

As far as the convention - I stayed downtown -- discovered that despite staying at a hotel where there is razor wire around the parking lot, the area isn't that bad. The LA Convention Center is right next to the Staples Arena where the Lakers, etc. play. That area is nice -- nice hotels along the strip from the sports areas to the downtown area. Just outside of that it gets a little dicey -- Koreatown & Chinatown are accessible from there - I drove thru but didnt' stop, but very easy to get to.

The convention itself - the topic was wireless / mobile & entertainment. This is a hyugely booming field of technology but the funny thing is that the technology is there, but they are still trying to find the audience. Use of wireless devices is much more prevalent in Europe & Asia due to the fact that the cost of landline connectivity (phones & internet) is much higher and potentially less available than here and also there is less time in cars - i.e. more use of public transportation and use of public facilities vs private, so people rely on their own personal mobile devices for IM"ing, etc. Therefor things like SMS / mobile advertising, gaming, downloading music & movies is much more common there than here. So all these companies that do that sort of thing are jockeying around trying to get relationships w/ the wireless carriers (Cingular, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc) and then workign w/ the carriers to come up w/ a viable pricing program so people will buy and they will make money on it. A good example of the problem w/ free widely available & in-demand entertainment is YouTube -- they move the most video on the internet but still aren't making a profit - there is no solid revenue model for them yet. And if they do put soemthing in place, how will it affect the viewer's use of it? (I.e. if they start loading up the interface w/ ads?)

Anyway very interesting stuff. But generally there are a handful of unique services and lots of different companies doing pretty much the same thing - so I just wandered around & talked to people about their business. I did meet some really interesting people at a happy hr on Tues and made some contacts. Will follow up w/ them this weekend.

The one thing I can report on is that I ran into a guy I used to work with at the convention right before I left. We exchanged business cards and chatted a little. He called today and said he had spoken w/ his CTO and this company is primarily developers - i.e. they don't have a real solid product program or someone driving it even though they are one of the longest running wireless services companies in the industry (LMAO -- since 1999...! Similar situation to the internet era...) so they have lots of good will / good reputation but really need to start formalizing their approach to competitive products & services. (That's what I do well!) So I'm sending him my resume & he will try to set up an interview this week. Pretty cool! Doesn't get me out of Atlanta, but it is a good opportunity.
 
Dropping by to say I hope that you are enjoying your weekend!!! OH, and best of luck with that possible opportunity coming up :heart: :rose:
 
Yup, I helped set up wireless labs in our school. For some reason I find a lot of people scared of the technology. But I assume it is like anything new, people resist change the old paper and pen theory I guess.

The opprotunity sounds awesome, I will keep my fingers, toes and eyes crossed again! :heart:
 
florencia said:
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE to read your posts, always full of great information,and you have way with words! :rose:

:) I could rattle on & on about the evolution & adaption of technology - I've been an observer of "behavior" for so long and I've had the chance to be on the leading edge of certain technologies over the last 20 yrs, LOL unfortunately I always ended up switching jobs just BEFORE the "leading edge" passed into the "viable, revenue-generating product" stage. :rolleyes:

This stuff is particularly interesting because people's expectations of their technology is so high (e.g. broadband internet & dual microprocessor speed with gigabytes of storage) that they expect the same via any medium - internet, wireless, wi-fi, cable, satellite, etc. But at free or extremely cheap rates. In the mean time, all those fancy features & functionality require resources that new media like wireless/cellular providers now need to provide -- that means they have to pay for the wider bandwidth, stronger signals, more reliable uptime, etc. but still keep it cheap so people will buy it, but still make money on it. That's a delicate balance.

But mostly I'm just dying to get into some new technology and really be where "it" is happening. (Oh yea, and make some money while I'm doing it....)
 
BTW....

19 Sept 2006 (Tues)
--------------------

House: nuttin

Job: no updates

Diet: still tight. I have no appetite for anything except jalapenos.

Training -- it was so random today. Ended up doing a really random full body thing w/ a couple suggestions from a guy at the gym but didn't get to talk long enough to get sort of the whole "flow" of a complete workout so it just got to be more of a supersetting of "stuff"... ."Weider Confusion Principle" LMAO! -- The general idea is still full body but more dynamic motions super setting - e.g. clean & press + curls

6 min cardio warmup
Super:
- clean & press: bar + 20/10 x 3
- ezbar curl: 40/10 x 3
Super:
- lat pull ups: bodywt/5 x 2 -- found that little tweak I had in my lats from this summe r-- backed off the last set
- cable tri rope presses: 60/10 x 2
--- since the last set of pull-ups interrupted I switched over to DB tri kickbacks: 20/12 x 2
Super:
- Hammerstrength Press: 70/10 x 3
- HS row: 90/10 x 3
Super:
- leg ext (8 TUT): 85/12 x 3
- sliding calf raise: 120/45 x 3

This was a very cardio-oriented workout -- definitely huffing thru each superset so I called that "cardio" and went home :)
 
Yeah, that looks like a great workout from here ;) I know what ya mean bout those super sets too... alot of times that is a cardio workout in itself, same with high reps if ya do it intense!

:wavey: Hope you had a great day as well!!!!!

Keep your head up high girly. Sometimes you need a day off to get motivated.

Workouts looking great can't wait till you hit the stage again, and who knows maybe I can make it wherever and whenever that is, would love to hang with you again. This time no early departure though :evil:

Cheers,
Scotsman

You know it! Have to see where life leads me -- the BB competition is up for grabs --- I've got so many aches & pains that flare up from lifting that I have to reassess what I'm doing - but definitely looking for some goals. I think my buddy at the gym will put together an interesting routine for me and I'm really excited about it.

And I will tell you there is nothing I would look forward to more than another chance to strut my shit on stage for EF! ;)

Or just hang out & chug beers w/ a guy in a kilt!

----------------------

House: nuttin

Job:
KILLER interview at a wireless application company downtown today. 3 hrs! Wohoo! Then I got an email query from Microsoft for a job in Redmond, phone interview w/ the recruiter tomorrow. See how that goes.

Diet: Was concerned about gettign caught (needign the bathroom) somewhere between getting stuck in traffic to the interview and at the interview, so I kept it pretty simple today...

Meal 1: 10 am
1 whole egg + 4 egg whites
handful of blueberries

Meal 6: 11:30 pm
1 tbsp anpb

Training:

Gotta hit the hay early so I can prepare for the phone interview tomorrow. Maybe I'll do AM cardio too.... :omg:
 
Good luck with the interview Sass!
What kind of protein bars do you eat? I'm trying find a good one. So far my favorite (taste and content-wise) is MHP's macrobolic bar.
 
Good luck!!

My 2 cents on the bars are sensations and Allmax isoflex...YUMMY!

Whats going on with the knee Sassy? I may have missed a post on it.... reverse lunges take alot of knee pain out of my workouts..
 
I was doing a leg extension 2 weeks ago and somethign went "crunch" on my right knee on the extension. Hard to walk that day so I've been off it, but frankly I've had the same pains pop up on both knees - only the right one went "crunch". So occassionally either of them will start to bother me.
 
22 Sept 2006

House:
This got weird - email from my realtor says he's been talking to that SAME couple to revive their offer.... who knows?

Job:
The job I've had a couple interviews w/ here in ATL is probably not an option. No further feedback yet on the mobile interview I had yesterday. And had an initial phone call w/ Microsoft. That's probably going to take a while to get thru all the phases / screenings...

None of that :velvett:

Have access to a steam room? ... i miss that so much, used to be able to go to one a few years ago, my current gym doesn't have one sadly.

I wish that worked - I tend to get headaches if I spend too much time laying around in bed too .....

Anyway it should be sorta normal tomorrow.... Got some fun time scheduled for me tomorrow so I'll be out & about & occupied!

That SUCKS, :heart: to you. But laughing at flor for thinking that it really was your aunt. but then when I read "I don't want to move" I had to look down your log to see if I had missed if you had sold the house or not" LOL
 
florencia said:
I hope you are doing better...I have no aunt Flo...:lmao:..but Mom has been here 15 days is that equal?


That's definitely up there w/ Aunt Flo - visiting relatives in general -they are great to hang out w/ for a few hrs but then they should continue on to someone else's house.

The good news is my relative has left. Or is at least packing right now.



.... nope the house hasn't sold yet. However I heard from my realtor that there's someone who is interested in a lease / own thingy. Will hear about that in a few days I guess.
 
Quicky update - stayed out of the gym most of the week - partially cuz I was too achy and partially because I've been in a complete state of "wait". Like to the point of being borderline catatonic.

29 Sept 2006 (Fri):
------------------
House:
switching to a new realtor but haven't actually met him yet. Need to write up a new contract this weekend or in a few days.

Job:
Waiting in agony all week for some sort of next step - I sent "Thank you" emails the day after my onsite interview last Thurs but didn't get any responses from anyone. So I waited until Wed this week & sent a couple nice suck-up letters. I got a response from the guy I know who hooked me up w/ this company - he's been out of town all week but he said the feedback so far was very positive and the fact that he recommended me & had worked w/ me in the past was also a very positive thing. But of course I really hate not knowing for sure. So today I got a call to schedule a phone interview w/ the CEO on Monday morning because I only got about 10 min w/ him last week. Soo.... *fingers crossed*...

Gym / Diet all week:
diet was mostly tight but didn't eat enough in general. No gym for most of the week. Instead I put my credit card thru a couple days of "super sets" - at all the department stores at 3 different malls. Basically I couldn't sit at home & 'wait' or even attempt to be productive, so I built up my work wardrobe. And I'm very happy w/ all the stuff I found. Some really nice suits, jackets, skirts, tops, SHOES! Wohoo! EVERYTHING on sale --- KILLER sales! So now I need to leave the malls alone until I get that job locked in...

Other stuff - got back on birth control.... maybe weird to bring that up here - but basically I"ve been off for almost 2 yrs due in part to lack of social life and mostly due to be in various stages of contest prep from Jan 2005 to July 2006. Since this is way low on the priority list right now, figured I'd give it another shot. Last time I tried w/ the pills - complete disaster - I kept forgetting to take them, had severe cramps & break thrus for a month because I kept forgetting the stupid pills. So, right now giving the Nuva ring a shot. Its about the lowest dose of estrogen you can get. So we'll see how it goes. Expect no weight gain, bloat etc.

And... well, looks like I got some sorta social life started again... ;)

Looks really good - mostly just getting the shoulder / elbow thing - its awkward so I'd say mostly just check the pix from the NPC Jr Nationals as a guide :)
