First and foremost I would like to apologize for not posting more frequently, but life happens. Sometimes it's easier to just live life then it is to try to capture it in the form of a blog. So my spring break officially started this past Monday. Going into this week I made a list in my head of things I wanted to get accomplished. The list goes as follows (these items are in no particular order and may not even make sense).......
1. Go to the beach and run.
2. Take Jager to the Del Mar dog beach.
3. Go to the beach and work on my tan.
4. Have at least two days where I exercise and crossfit.
5. Get caught up on laundry.
6. Relax.
7. Clean my car.
8. Go bowling.
9. Clean my apartment.
10. Go to the shop and work on my AE86.
Okay so out of my list I accomplished everything except 7, 9, and 10. 7 and 9 are my fault but 10 is completely out of my control because my mechanic has been in Texas so the shop hasn't been open. Spring break has been good to me. I've been treating myself to some much needed time off as well as treating my body to some much needed fun in the sun.
The picture above was taken at the Tamarack beach in Carlsbad California. I like that beach because I have friends who live close and I also have spent quite a bit of time in that area since being stationed in California. That day I went running then after running I laid out in the sun and worked on my tan. I went with my bud Mike W. who was talking to some cute runner girl who was on spring break from Gonzaga (THATA BOY MIKE) and never mind the bougus broads; sluts like that are a dime a dozen. Then that night I hung out with my bud Danny and we went bowling. The bowling was OK because the lanes incorporated a new pattern as well as a new oil which made the lanes very slick (in case you do not know I'm a very serious bowler with my own own balls and shoes). The slickness made it hard for my ball to catch and hook :( After bowling I hopped over to my place of employment to say hi and it was a good thing I was there. So shortly after I got there, some douche bags with Tattoos on their faces come in and start being loud and very confrontational/stand offish; which wasn't a problem until the one dude pushed my pool balls in the pocket after I just paid 75 cents (which isn't much but it's the principal) to play. So I tell the dude "Hey man are you gonna cough up 75 cents so I can play my game of pool?" So all 5 foot 5 of the guy gets up in my face and tries to punk me; I just give him the 1000 yard stare and tell him to "just pay the change and we won't have any problems." Well thankfully his friends knew he was an idiot and dragged him outside and told him to chill. Oh yea and I got my 75 cents :) So while this guy was outside my bar manager (who will remained unnamed) is literally shaking because he is intimidated by this wanna be loser. So as a result of my bar manger's cowardly behavior and the fact my bar has no bouncer's on Monday/Tuesday; my boss told me yesterday I'm gonna be working on Mondays now (cool because more money is alright with me). So I'm stoked to have the opportunity to make more money. So today I took Jagermeister (my dog) to the Del Mar dog beach. It was cloudy but it wasn't too bad. My dog had a blast chasing other dogs and letting other dogs chase him. It's so funny because my dog thinks he is King Ding-A-Ling! It was all fine until he chased another dog and ran into a puddle of water which completely submerged him. Here is a picture of his face below, as you can see he wasn't too happy :( But it was nice for him to get out and interact.
Since I've been on vacation I've been going to different restaurants, but I've been sticking to my Paleo diet. I've discovered restaurants that I didn't think I could eat at before like Islands. They have a protein platter which is Paleo friendly but it's not advertised on the menu. Speaking of Paleo my nutrition challenge is seven days away from coming to an end. I'm curious to see my before and after photos. I think the difference will be significant and I hope it inspires other people to join crossfit. Well my vacation isn't quite over yet so I still have some things I need to get done. See you all next time I'll leave you with a song (and if it doesn't matter I'll stay here until the sun goes down-lyrics) as well as a picture of a very handsome man you may or may not know. Bye and see ya next time!
