and went to bed way too late (f’ing Olympics consume me), but at least I didn’t
wake up too much last night. Speaking of the Olympics: I’m obsessed with those male swimmers. I’ll be damned if their bodies aren’t pure perfection. I love that they’re tall, have those awesome broad shoulders, and the abs that go straight up to their necks. I swear the Men’s relay team could be 4/5 of my list.
Love it.
Every morning on my way to work, once I hit this long stretch of road, I crank up: Settle Down by No Doubt. I mentioned this earlier, but it is my theme song for weight loss. I freaking love everything about No Doubt. I know not everyone loves them as much as me, but if you ever want some exercise inspiration check out the live DVD from the Rock Steady tour. Gwen is amazing! You’ve got to love a girl that drops and does pushups right in the middle of a song. I’m not sure that I’ve ever mentioned this on here (although I probably have 100x), but I met her once. A friend won a radio contest and took me to meet her before a show. I’d seen that concert earlier in the year when she was in Denver. Amy and I had front row tickets. As always, amazing, energetic show (but in no way compares to a No Doubt show. Not as big a fan of her solo stuff). Anyway, I was so pumped up to meet her. I was just sure that she and I would meet and there would be this confusing electricity between us. I just knew that we’d both have to question our sexuality after meeting face to face. She was cool as hell, and I totally dominated the Meet & Greet, talking to her the whole time. After our picture was taken, I swear to God, when her hand came off my shoulder it brushed my ass. She must’ve felt it, but unfortunately no such sparks for me. Haha. I remember she looked so damn tired. I honestly felt sorry for her. MOFO. I can’t even have a normal girl crush. I have to turn it into a maternal thing, wanting to take care of her. Lol Anyway, that’s my Gwen story, although, it’s not much of a story. However, I do use the name, Gwen when I go out w/ my friends. I use it for karaoke, and with anyone we meet that night. She’s my much cooler, alter ego.
So, if you haven’t heard Settle Down yet, you should check it out. Good stuff.
I’m ashamed to say that I’m on my second soda of the day. I’ve just been so damnedtired. Hopefully I’ll get that going in the right direction this weekend. Maybe tomorrow I’ll actually be able to sleep in. One can hope, anyway.
I may be able to write more later. Hope you all are having a fantastic Friday.
I’m feeling awesome!
Much love,
Gwen
