I'm happy its Thursday...which means only one more day of work this week! gotta love short work weeks!

gosh, i love this girlie!

we have been friends for years and, although we haven't lived in the same state since highschool...we have still maintained a wonderful friendship. i've never been to chicago and its been a while since i've seen my girl, so i'm def counting down for this trip! look out, chicago!

{get it right, get it tight}

i mentioned before that i recently joined a gym.

okay, so i'm still loving it, but i have an issue....

i don't know about you ladies, but i go to the gym to WORKOUT!

if i have my head phones on...is that a cue to come talk to me??? ummmm....i think NOT!

why do some men think its okay to stare at you while you're trying to workout?

yeah, admire all you want, but lets put a time frame on how much staring you can do in two hours. geeezzz.

and, i don't mean just a couple glances here or there, but full-on stalker staring...that's scaring, yo.
at least wave, give me a thumbs up or something...lol

sometimes, its hard being such a pretty girl. i'm sure you ladies can agree with me, right? lol :)

i signed up for sessions with a trainer...and, its a guy!
he looks hard core! my first session is on sunday afternoon.
hopefully, i'll make it out alive. wish me luck!

anyone ever tried this workout before???

i'm body aches just reading it...lol

hope you guys have a wonderful weekend :)
