This weekend, though very uneventful in the greater scheme of life, was awesome! I spent most of the day with my parents yesterday, and when I got home, around 5 pm, Tomy was doing the dishes and listening to late 80's early 90's rap. I just kinda of chuckled about it and started to help with getting dinner ready. As I begin to cut up the onion, Sir Mix-A-Lot comes on with Baby Got Back. I was laughing as I sang the whole song. Tom looks at me is like, why am I not surprised that you know this song. I told him it was because I liked that song. It was huge when I was in 6th grade... He seems to hate it when we talk about when music came out because he is 9 years my senior, and for to say that I was in 6th grade, he was out of high school at that point. :)
We made dinner and laughed and watched videos from that time period, and the more I watched this, I realized that the dance video workouts that are so popular now, are really dance moves from Ice Ice Baby. It's true, watch some of these videos and you will see it too. I thought I was going to hurt myself from laughing at the irony of it all.
Tomy likes the fact that I can dance to this music too. It's not like it's so difficult. Just listen to the beat and the music, and let it flow through your body. Guess I just like shake it. I don't really think that I"m that great at it, but, he thinks so, so, I guess I will just take his word for it. We danced in the kitchen a lot last night. Every time that Piper would come in the kitchen for something, she was like, ewww, that's gross! Go to your room! She was pretty funny, and just frozen to the computer screen when she was with us watching the videos. The more we danced, the more we kissed and then the more I just wanted to get Piper into bed, so we could have our grown-up time, alone.
Got Piper into bed a bit after 8. It's a holiday today, why not let her stay up a little late? I then did my workout, no, it's not a dance routine... actual weight lifting and cardio. Took a nice hot shower, made an awesome fruit smoothie afterwards. I was set to get into bed and relax for a awhile. Got into bed, and discovered that the DVD player is not working... Must have been something that Piper pushed while she was watching movies in our room. So, we turn to the PS2. Thank god that thing still works and runs like a champ.
It was Boondock Saints night. I love that movie, so funny to watch. I especially like the part where at eh very end of the movie, you see the news broadcast stuff and one person is like, next thing you know, kids will be having posters of the these guys in their rooms.. I look up and see that I have two posters of these guys in our room. Between them, rests a Japanese symbol for Peace... Ironic really.
It was a great night. Stayed up way too late, and I love every minute of it. Tomy is just, WOW! Makes my blush thinking of it really.
So this morning, I get up to get ready for work. It's Veteran's Day so Piper and Tom have the day off. And I look in the mirror after getting to the bathroom, and I notice that my whole face and skin are glowing. It was awesome. And I put my contacts in, brushed my teeth, took a hot shower and finish getting ready for work. Got to work, put my hair up for my first massage, and I look in the mirror at work, and again, I see that I am glowing. And my skin looks amazing! Clear and bright, and super pale, but, that part is a normal thing.
Why can't we do pictures this morning? I look awesome and my skin looks amazing, and my muscles are becoming more and more defined. It's such a great feeling. I have to say that without my double workout it probably wouldn't be that obvious, but, WOW!
And, I think it's important to note that I am a bit of a narcissist in that if I see a mirror, I have to stop and stare at myself. When I worked at a salon, I couldn't talk to my friend, because I was always looking in the mirror at myself. Mirrors, while they are the devil, are so reveling, both good and bad. I sometime see what Tomy sees and that makes me really happy. Other times, all I see are the flaws that I think I have. Thankfully, today is not one of those day!! Today, it's just a Monday Morning Glow!
