R's response to my Plastered Pick
First of all before I respond, Eric Church just came on. Right when I hit the reply button. "How bout you". I think that is a sign. A sign for what, I have no idea. I'm going to assume it means you're email is spot on, 100% correct.
Second of all, I have a question. I know when it came down to it, you would not do this, but you've got to admit that it might just cross your mind if the Dawgs made the National Championship. It would cross my mind for sure:
http://www.ajc.com/news/woman-charged-with-offering-175986.html?cxntlid=thbz_hm
By the way, the last sentence in that story is f'ing hilarious to me.
Thirdly, i was kind of dragging this morning. Now, due to this email, I am alive. I am ready. Ready for what, I don't know. Probably booze if I had to guess. And now that I think about it, if Ernest came over right now and offered me a beer, i would freakin pound it.
Fourth, your email should be posted somewhere. It pretty much covers it all. From God to Soulja Boy. Finally, I my prediction is very simple. Dawgs 31, Gators 26. That's what popped in my brain while I was typing. So, boom. Geno Atkins breaks Tebow's leg in the 4th quarter. Geno then takes off Timmy's helmet and cleet's him in the face while he lays helpless on the ground. After the game concludes, Richt pretends to go in for the handshake, and then, boom, psyche, b*&ch slaps Meyer in the face followed by a swift kick to his non-professional region. Meyer cries like a baby, and is fired due to his gayness. Tebow never plays again, gets married to an underage Argentinian woman, and lives happily ever after performing circumcisions and being a complete homo.

Hate Week
Okay, so I'm a UGA fan and this week is hate week. Below is an email I sent to my friend R about my thoughts on this weekend's game. Bear in mind I am currently hammered. Like at this moment. And I just hit send so at that moment too. You'd be hammered too if you got in a wreck with a Florida fan!
Okay, so by close of business I meant MY close of business which is...well, damn, I was going to say when I go to bed but that made me think I sounded like something you don't talk about on someone's professional email. Anyway, you catch my drift. After stopping at panda express I went into the kitchen to discover I have about 10 bottles of wine (and one bottle of champagne me thinks will be making a trip to Jacksonville). After a millisecond of contemplation, I thought to myself, why not indulge. It isn't every day you get hit by a car. Okay, in my case that is a lie, but whatever. I can't let 10 bottles of wine just SIT on the counter. That would be sacrilegious. Or something. Also, I have discovered I have a lot of songs on my computer I hate. But that is beside the point. The point is, two bottles down and I'm ready to write you a paragraph (or two apparently). So without further ado (but with some sort of grapefruit-pineapple-rum concoction that I just...concocted) I give you: Erin's Plastered Pick.
Dawgs win by eleventy billion. Okay, that's a lie. They don't but wouldn't it be great to just stomp it down their throats so hard and so many times that they...nevermind, work email. Anyway, I would love a reversal of our 47-7 loss a few years back as payback but what I am thinking will be far sweeter (if more likely to induce a heart attack or coma). I have concluded that the Dawgs will win... 21-17. I know, completely random. My thought here is that our defense will be sufficient but our offense is going to take it to the house. Because, obviously, Bobo has been practicing some screen shit the likes of we haven't seen all season (in the fourth quarter- I figure it will take three quarters to war, up. Okay one touchdown in the first quarter, two in the fourth). Christ I wish Joe Cox and his receivers could have stars align so they had fanfreakingtastic games on the same damn day. Also, I imagine we will for once master the two minute drill in a way that will leave Tim Tebow wishing he could go full time into mission trips or whatever the hell his daddy does. WTF is this home schooling crap? I am so confused by that- it truly boggles the mind that such a tool could be given athletic talent too. He's supposed to be an antisocial geek. And I firmly believe GOD is a UGA fan, not a Tim "the next toolbag prophet" fan. Anyway,I fully support letting them lead the entire f'ing game and then BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. I know I would probably denounce them half a dozen times during the game (when will we get this penalty stuff under control?) but I would love to hand the Gators a heart breaking defeat in the last seconds when they have already begun trash talking all over facebook, twitter and whatever social networking sites they frequent (match.com probably). I can just see them now, down for the first time the whole game, they push it down the field but cannot push Tebow over the goal line to break Herschel Walker's record (which is not broken for a variety of reasons- the most important being that they don't even belong in the same sentence let alone stratosphere) so they settle for a field goal figuring a thus far lackluster (with spurts of brilliance) performance by the UGA Offense (can the OLine please get their shit together?). Suddenly, Soulja Boy can be heard (and seen) coming from all areas inside and outside the stadium and 2:00 are on the clock. And FIRE. I predict last second touchdown by either AJ Green or Washaun Ealey (because I have the 24 jersey and that would be pimptastic). The end. Okay, not the end, the end will occur after I imbibe copious amounts of booze and discuss what is lacking in Florida fans anatomy. Ohhh the end is a horrendous hangover and a long drive home to GODS COUNTRY.
How's that for compliant?
Now, you're turn. But sober.
PS. I read and reread this a dozen times and spell checked. If it is f'ed up, don't tell me. I like to pretend I make sense when sober. May the slop be with you.

SO FRUSTRATED!
Okay, first I'm mad at myself for binge eating this weekend. I will discuss this later (suffice to say cheese dip and cookie dough was a bad idea. Not to mention the ice cream fiasco). The reason I am frustrated is nutrition content. What is so damn difficult for restaurants? I want to make good choices and they make it IMPOSSIBLE to do so. I had dinner with my friend Brittany last night and she picked this cute French bistro (which meant calories out the wazoo). I went to their site and, surprise! surprise!, they didn't have their nutritional content on theire page. I figured I would just wing it and enjoy it but after googling what I ate I am more than concerned about the calorie and fat intake! The daily plate is a website that TRIES to help you with this but of course they didn't have the caesar salad or the Turkey Bistro on the list. Okay they had the calorie count of my 1/2 sandwhich but nothing else (which at 500 calories scares the shit out of me! Thank god I did a 3 mile run yesterday. That meal also explains the weight gain from yesterday to today!). Suffice to say, I have written to them requesting the information. I read somewhere that you should make your menu choices before you go to a restaurant to ensure that you make a good decision but every time I try it does not work out for me! Also pissing me off? I had no interest in what they considered their smart choices!
What restaurants have you tried to glean nutritional information from only to be met with a brick wall? Am I the only one who tries to use this information to make healthy decisions prior to eating out?

Defeat
I wish I could play kickball every night. With a team that wins. Man, last night should have been our team's victory and we self-imploded in the last inning. What a bummer. Especially knowing that the other team was taking jello shots while I was stone cold sober. I swore I was not going to go out but of course (dear self-discipline, where art thou?) I ended up at Charlie Mopps with the rest of my team. I was STARVING. I think it was 9:30 before I got my food and I went with the cheapest meal on the menu- grilled cheese and french fries. I know, I know.
breakfast Two packs of Lower Sugar Cinnamon Sugar Oatmeal
snack coffee
lunch Cookies 'N'Cream Delight Luna Bar
snack Blue Chips
snack Valencia orange and Crystal Light Immunity
dinner grilled cheese and waffle fries and Miller Lite beer
Points for only drinking one beer right?

Song of the Week
Actually this song is one I consider a must-have for all sexual women and I try to play it at least once a day but for now, it's our Sex Song of the Week! I actually even posted the lyrics in my apt in college if that is any indication on how much I like this song!
"H.W.C" by Liz Phair from the album: Liz Phair
Give it to me, don't give it away
Don't think about what the others say
My skins getting clear, my hairs so bright
All you do is fuck me every day and night
You're my secret beauty routine
Na, na, na, na, what my body has seen
I am lookin' good and I'm feeling nice
Baby you're the best magazine advice
Gimme your hot white cum
Gimme your hot white cum
Gimme your hot white cum
Gimme your hot white cum
I'm gonna pull you back down between the sheets
Everything is fresher when the day is sweet
In the morning light when you're already on the phone
Face it, one of these days
Without you I'm just another Dorian Gray
It's the fountain of youth
It's the meaning of life
So hot, so sweet, so wet my appetite
Gimme your hot white cum
Gimme your hot white cum
Gimme your hot white cum
Gimme your hot white cum
Face it, one of these days
Without you I'm just another Dorian Gray

4. Bumble
5. Dawgs win by 40

8. Sleep
The only items that are not flexible are Booze and Dawgs. Other than that, I am open for anything. I like to party.

It's called Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka and I will be contacting the National Distributing Company today to find out where they sell it. They distribute for Georgia. It's going to be a blackout weekend if I actually get my hands on this stuff.
Bobs plans sound delicious.

So that leaves me with my cavalier...and I'm a sloppy drunk.
That, to me, spells DISASTER. BUT I could probably keep myself from getting sloppy so long as if we flopped at a bar here we got a cab and THEN I could get sloppy.

I don’t care. C invited me with his ticket, so I would assume he will be with R. Also, I drive a Ford Explorer for a few days til the Silver Bullet is fixed in the shop. No need to make plans in my humble opinion.
Now, you are probably wondering what we actually ended up doing. Well, we rode in R's Ford Explorer to Athens the day of the game. Then K and I disappeared to visit boy of the moment and got nasty phone calls from R. Then R and I disappeared and went to hang out with his friends and former employees (shortly after the email exchange R was fired- I refuse to believe this is a result of our less than professional emails). Then R and I went to the game and got hammered. Then we went to a bar (took shots and drank tons of beer) and got nasty messages from C who was ready to go home. Of course, R was too drunk to drive us home so C drove R's car to C's apt while K and I rode in boy of the moments truck. An hour after we got back to K's, R rolled up in the Explorer with Arby's and proceeded to listen to Garth Brooks and sink into depression over his recent firing. I actually had to drunkenly console him and convince him to come inside and have another beer. Aren't you impressed I remember this?

Forgot Yesterday
Let's just call the day a wash. I worked and then had to head to Conyers for a visitation (my friend's grandmother passed away) and by the time I was heading back I was in no mood to cook or even eat anything in my apt. After stopping at Wendy's, I headed home to watch Greek (my new obsession) on DVD. I did throw some crunches and pushups in after inhaling my Wendy's but not enough to call it a workout. Still, every bit of activity counts, right?
Yesterday's food log:
breakfast Mint Chocolate Cliff Bar, apple
snack Butterscotch snack pack ( i know, they are terrible- I have two left and then never again!)
lunch roasted red pepper hummus with feta cheese and mini pitas
dinner Wendy's Crispy Chicken Sandwich and value french fries
I am still utilizing the fitday.com website and loving it. I also looked up the percentage of carbs,fat and protein you should have in your day and am aiming to meet that but I am failing so far. Let me know if you have any suggestions for high protein, low carb meals and snacks!
%of carbs recommended: 40-45 Actual carbs eaten yesterday: 53%
%of fat recommended: 30-35 Actual fat eaten yesterday: 32%
%of protein recommended: 25-30 Actual protein eaten yesterday: 15%

On Friday, I went to my bank (Fifth Third Bank- check it) and sat down with a banking professional (aka my best friend Ryan) to discuss the status of my finances. He sold me on a promo for identity alert (9.95 a month) which pulls credit reports and monitors my credit cards. I was rather shocked at my credit scores. Granted they are not great but they are much higher than they were a year ago. In the interest of full disclosure:
Experian : 636
Equifax: 661
Transunion: 682
Basically- factors going against me are that I am too close to my credit limits (which I am no longer using my cards) and that I had a card closed in 2006 and late payments up until April of 2008. According to my banker, this should roll off in the next 6 months and my credit score will improve significantly. WIN! I am actually getting my life together. Which kind of scares me.

DVD Review!
I had planned on going for a run but an afternoon nap trumped it leaving it cooler and darker than I was hoping. I love night runs- just not during the winter! So I popped in a DVD and thought I would review it for you here!
Today I opted to do 10 Minute Solution Hot Body Boot Camp. I picked this up from Target but if you click the link you can order it from Amazon as well. This DVD is awesome simply because it breaks everything into 10 minute segments so you can customize a workout. There are 5 10 minute sections:
- Hot Body Cardio
- Ab Assault
- Rock Bottom Sculpt
- Calorie Blasting Drills
- Better Body Stretch
It is hosted by Amy Bento who is upbeat without being saccharine sweet. She encourages without acting like you're biggest cheerleader. And I struggled to keep up. Meaning I can do this video more than once without losing the benefits. I figure I can do it a couple times a week for a month and then be up to her speed and drop to doing it once a week. Today I did the first four, I am not big into stretching and she uses a band that I don't have. I tried it once with a bath towel but it was too much fabric. I also like that if I am pressed for time, I can opt to do just one of the sections. Overall, I'm glad I spent the money. We'll see how I'm feeling tomorrow because I am still a little sore and I just finished!
Today's food diary:
breakfast Cliff bar
snack banana
lunch pasta with cheese sauce
snack peanut butter and crackers
dinner romaine lettuce salad with chicken, tomato, cucumber, egg and feta cheese with italian dressing
Also, I am looking into Zumba classes. I mentioned earlier I was interested in picking up a class a few times a month and my Aunt Nora and family friend Sarah are instructors in NJ. I've taken the class once in NJ and I struggled but it seems like fun. Dancing is not my strong suit but it would be something different. There is one at a YMCA near me so I am going to give them a call and see how much it costs!
My So-Called Sex Life
So today I was bumming around the apt and decided to pop in some My So-Called Life. God, what a GREAT show. I actually cut my hair in 5th grade after watching the first episode where Angela Chase dyes her hair red. My mom stopped short of allowing me to dye it but pairing the new haircut with the combat boots and cotton dresses made me feel infinitely cooler. So angsty. I desperately wanted to be Angela. Of course, looking back that poor girl was a MESS. Was there anyone who was ever more torn up about life in general?
Anyway, check out episode 13, Pressure, for a great reminder of high school sexual activity. I, personally, didn't ever really consider sex with anyone during high school but I imagine if I did this episode would sum it up. Or maybe I am just wishing I could have that moment with Jordan Catalano (who I still secretly fantastize about). Either way, Angela Chase's emotional turmoil and subsequent break up with Jordan is so classic and right that it is a must watch for anyone considering sex. Plus, I'd love to watch the sex video Angela and Sharon procure from Sharon's parents. I imagine this is what it was like for a lot of people trying to make the sex decision.
Check the episode out here and then tell us your thoughts. Did you have an awkward sex talk with friends? Or your boyfriend? We'd love to hear it!
Thoughts on Yoga
My friend Ellen has another great post on her blog. It pretty much sums up why I hve never taken a yoga class. I could use tips though because I hear it is a great workout and I am game for trying anything new.
Also, I am interested in a place that just has classes- I don't want to join a gym persay but a place where I could drop in a couple times a month and py like 5 bucks to take boot camp or zumba or pilates or even yoga. Anyone know of any places?

Sex test
So, maybe I am alone in this, but I tend to drink a lot and then have sex...and then wake up and have no memory of anything from the night before. This is something I am hoping to grow out of soon. But in those instances where I fall of the wagon and wind up wondering on a morning after if I have had sex I have devised a test...
- Where Am I?
- Who Am I With (if anyone...)?
- Am I Naked?
- Is He Naked?
- Does My Vagina Hurt?
Have you ever had blackout sex? Do you have a way to figure out if it has occurred? Email your stories to mylittleblackbook11@gmail.com!
Do I have to cut myself off?
So after this weekend I am wondering if I just have to end all fun times and weekend shenanigans in order to make this whole weightloss thing occur. I mean last week I was up to losing 6 lbs and this morning (after a weekend wedding) I had gained those 6 lbs back. WTF. I just don't know how to say no I guess. So I'm thinking I may have to quit fun times unless I can find a babysitter to monitor my food and beverage intake.
breakfast Multigrain cheerios with skim milk
lunch cliff bar
snack peanut butter and wheat thins
snack banana
dinner romain lettuce with grilled shrimp, tomato, cucumber, feta cheese, italian dressing and eggs
desert Polka Dot Reisling
Also making me feel bad- looking at pictures from the weekend. I FEEL like I LOOK fat. I can see double chins and flabby arms. UGH...
On that vein, I will say I did have some happy pictures this weekend- a surprise for my mom from my brother, sister and I. I don't generally toot someone else's horn but you have to see the pictures my friend Jess takes- click here to see them. She is absolutely incredible. If you are in the Atlanta area and need family photos, engagement or wedding pictures or anything else DEFEINITELY call her. She really pays attention to you and asks your opinions and thoughts during the shoot so you get really personalized shots :) I will be using her again in the future for sure!

I've lost SIX lbs!
So my highest weight in September was 168.6. I am currently weighing in at 161.4!I am very excited about this and even though you didn't ask I will tell you how I did it: Watched what I ate and worked out LESS. I know it sounds crazy but the fact is it worked! Yesterday's food diary:
breakfast coffee and YoCrunch
snack banana
lunch Luna bar
snack hummus with feta cheese and roasted red peppers and pita bread
dinner one crab cake with a side of 4 cheese rice
workout 30 minutes on the bike

So thanks iPod for sending me into a spiral of depression. That's really how I wanted to spend my Friday.
Grocery List
I forgot to post yesterday's shopping list on here (duh, it was the 15th- of course I went and blew my money!). Since I am being very careful about what I am eating now, coupons aren't going to help out anymore. Thank god for my Kroger Plus savings of $1.77 yesterday! The goal is to spend less than $50 each time I head to the store. Yesterday I succeeded even with purchasing a caddy for my cleaning supplies and a boss's day card (which of course, I forgot!). Without further ado, the list:
- 1/2 gallon of Kroger Skim Milk (with Vitamin A &D)
- Athenos Reduced Fat Feta
- Sabrero Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
- Romaine bagged salad (I know, I should get organic but I don't like cleaning and chopping it- YUCK)
- Tomatoes
- Cucumbers
- Navel Oranges
- Red Delicious Apples
- Dannon Reduced Fat Vanilla Yogurt
- Kraft Olive Oil Mayo
- Jack Daniels Barbeque Sauce (an indulgence- with as much chicken as I eat, I need fun marinades!)
- Jiff Natural Creamy Peanut Butter
- Bare Naked Triple Berry Granola
- Whole Wheat Pitettes
- Kroger Olive Oil Pan Spray
Grand Total: $39.96!

The Aftermath
After a day of not eating, I spent last night stuffing my face with a five guys burger and fries and 5 Coors Lights. Today I am back on track food-wise but not feeling up to doing much else. I did hit the gym for 40 minutes on the bike. Still pretty shaken up and it has definitely affected me.

Dealing with Grief
I woke up this morning to some upsetting news and functioning seems to be an issue. I'm hungry but I cannot eat. I am tired but I cannot sleep. I want to work out but I don't. It's completely miserable. I know I should probably not be writing this but I need to do something. And I'm wondering how does anyone deal with grief.
Does it affect your eating habits? Do you eat more? Less? Am I the only one who feels lost?
Hell of a Way to Wake Up
This morning my phone rang. I silenced it because I was not supposed to be up yet. Immediately it rang again.
"Someone better be dead." I muttered into the phone by way of answering.
"David is."
It was 5:40 am. What I thought was a drunk dial from my bartender friend was not. My friend David had been shot. He was dead.
I have no idea how or why or what...or who. I don't know how to handle this. DEAD. I couldn't cry I was so numb. I immediately logged onto the internet to see if any news had come about. Nothing.
David was...well, there aren't really words to describe him. He was the most personable and generous person I know. He was also a total asshole. I can't even put into words how I feel about him or anything that happened. I keep thinking this is some kind of joke. Like if I call him, he might answer. Or maybe the cops made a mistake and it's not him. But it isn't a joke and it isn't a mistake.
Who could have done this? What kind of scenario could have occurred in which David is dead? I know it happens every day all over America for all kinds of reasons but not to someone I know. Someone I know well. We've been to concerts, had heart to hearts, drank beers, played video games, gone to baseball games. We were fucking friends. I just saw him on Tuesday. How can someone you just saw be dead?
I don't know why I felt compelled to type this or to put it out there but I needed to do something besides cry. I see things and remember things that remind me of him and I just lose it. I just cannot comprehend.
UPDATE: Apparently, the sister had the story wrong and just called us to notify he had actually hung himself. I don't know which scenario is worse. And I don't know how you go around calling David's friends telling them his girlfriend shot him without actually knowing the cause of death. What could I have done to help him? Is the first question that comes into my head.

Utilizing Fitday.com
Hello! I spent today jumping around on Fitday.com so I could share Day 1 of the experience with you and you could decide if it was the site for you! I've got to tell you I am loving it!
Food Diary:
breakfast YoCrunch
snack orange
lunch Jason's Deli Ranchero Wrap (whooooaaaa buddy!) I love places like Jason's Deli that allow you to look up the nutrition information. It helps me make a great decision. I always feel wary about a place that does not list it on the website or immediately respond to inquiries about their nutrition facts.
snack Weight Watchers toffee crunch ice cream
dinner Lean Pocket Chicken and Artichoke dinner
Calorie Intake: 1612. My goal for each day is to ingest 1642 so I did good today! YAY!
Breakdown:
Fat 71.2 g
Carbs 180.4 g
Protein 79.2 g
Could be worse but definitely could be a lot better...something to work on!
Workout- 40 minute bike ride. Then I got distracted by Scrabble with my dad so no weights :(

Love...in his pants
Okay I know this video is old but I just watched it again and...seriously, I am in love with Andy Samberg. I mean, he can jizz wherever he wants as long as he marries me. I love the song and it gets stuck in my head (awkward to sing in an elevator ps) but he's also (obviously):
- Smart
- Funny
- Not above 12 year old humor which we all know I love
- Successful
Now I don't know if he is also into sports but I will guess YES because I like it. I'm fairly certain if he didn't drive a truck I would still be okay with it....
My first pregnancy scare...
Totally random to be posting about this since I haven't done the dirty deed in months but it doesn't matter. Pregnancy scares are the WORST! I still remember my first ever and the second, third and fourth. Miserable experiences ALL. Of course, I can't bring them up without sharing!
first time for everything...
I was a freshman in college. Ughhh. I had just started dating The First which meant having sex on the regular at any time we could squeeze it in- you know how that goes. I started not feeling too well a month or two into our relationship. I was tired all the time and felt sick to my stomach constantly. One night I even passed out on my way to the bathroom. After that occurred I crawled into my loft and just thought about dying. The First came by to visit and crawled into the loft with me. It was nice to have someone cuddle with me and rub my back but as I told him what was wrong I could see him growing pale. Suddenly the loft was too hot and he was too close.
"I think you might be pregnant."
Oh shit, shit, shit. Of course this would happen right before my first gyno appointment. I know we should have been more careful since I wasn't on birth control at the time but we were 19 and horny and crazy. The worst part about the entire ordeal was that he whipped out his cell phone and called HIS MOM! His mom. Who I had never met. I was mortified but she was a nurse so it made sense to call her. I sure as shit was NOT calling my mom!
His mom did not say a damn thing to make me feel better. In fact, the longer we stayed on the phone with her the more convinced I was that I was pregnant and my life was over. I got so upset that the minute The First hung the phone up I kicked him out of the room. All night he imed me and called my cell trying to check on me. I refused to answer (like by not talking to him this would magically go away).
The next day, I floated through classes. I barely ate. I wore jeans and a huge sweatshirt even though it was a warm spring day. When my roommate disappeared for a few hours, I cried. When The First knocked on the door (okay pounded) for 10 mintes, I pretended I wasn't there. Anything not to face the fact that there was a bun in my oven. Eventually, I sat down in front of my lap top and began working on homework. A friend of mine ended up iming me randomly from upstairs in my dorm and I just let her know exactly what I was going through. She told me to come upstairs IMMEDIATELY. When I got there she had a pregnancy test and a shoulder to lean on. I couldn't get over my embarrassment so I stuffed the test in my pocket and ran back down to my room.
Eventually I took the test. I will never forget sitting in the community bathroom in a stall just waiting. Counting the minutes between the time I peed and the time it said I should know. Praying that I was not a complete idiot. I screamed bloody murder when the test came back positive- scaring half the dorm into coming to check on me. How does one explain the relief of not being pregnant? I ran back to my room and typed the words to my friend and then just sat there with a grin on my face.
Of course, being a girl I let The First sweat it out before finally telling him the next day that we were not going to be parents at the tender age of 19.

Food Journal
Before I start: THANK YOU TANYA! It took me a while to look through the comments and discover the website you suggested but I did and boy do I love it. The true test will be if I continue to use it as days progress. I'm always super diligent and then it slips off.
The site Tanya recommended is FitDay and I am loving it. Reasons to love:
The site Tanya recommended is FitDay and I am loving it. Reasons to love:
- It is FREE!
- You can log your food intake

I definitely recommend that anyone struggling to keep track of what they eat and how get on this site and give it a shot. Granted, it is only my first day, but I have tried other food journals and been extremely disappointed. So far, I am happiest with this one!

2 lbs in 2 days
So my weekend was not as bad as it could have been. I ate like shit...but I only gained 2 lbs so I cannot complain. This week is not off to a good start because I went to visit my friend Cortney and stayed longer than I thought. Then I cooked dinner and watched the office. Now I am in crisis mode with my friend Jess and its not looking like this phone call is going to end any time soon. So no workout- must sleep!

Erotic Literature
I know my initial plan was to write about the funny and bizarre antics I have participated in sexually but the fact is I keep stumbling across other sexual things I want to discuss. Not that it is much of a discussion when I just throw this shit out there and no one responds but maybe one day...
Anyway, the other day I was at Walmart. Wandering. I had to pick up some meds and had some time to kill so I went to the book section. Perusing the titles I came across this book that seemed like it could be a good read. It involved a Navy SEAL and that just sounded like it had intrigue and hunky guys all wrapped up in a nice 300 page book. Boy was I right...and wrong...about that!
The book is Lora Leigh's Dangerous Games. It was addictive. Now, I had my romance novel phase and I (obviously) enjoy sex as much as the next person but Lora Leigh blew my mind. Possibly because I was not expecting the words COCK and PUSSY in a book I bought at Walmart. Plus, multiple chapters dedicated to describing sexual acts in details (some of which had me squirming). I'm not going to lie, the book got me going and I felt slightly embarrassed for wanting to read more of her books. I also felt slightly frustrated that I don't currently have a go-to guy cause I was ready to go after reading some of these passages!

To Give Or Not To Give
As we all know, sex is never just sex (and if it's all deed and no foreplay it's not much fun). Lately, as I've reflected on past experiences, I've started thinking about the full scope of sex.
As high school students, many girls figure they have to put out to get (or keep) a boyfriend. And they hold out as long as possible in order to safeguard their virginity. How many girls are "everything but..." girls? But I've started to really examine that stance. Perhaps the bases are all wrong on this one.
At this point in life, I've started to reconsider my stance on things like the blow job. Where before, a blow job was a precursor to sex now I am starting to wonder if I have the order wrong. Think about the actual act of a blow job. While in school it may seem like the sort of action you can perform as a detached, hip female. But in really considering the act I've started to move away from that thought. To me the action of using your mouth on someone is a curiously intimate one that we really don't put enough care into. Should we really be so free with our mouth's affections?
What are your thoughts? Do you have an experience or opinion you'd like to share about my ramblings? Email me at mylittleblackbook11@gmail.com!

Is Kickball a Work Out?
Kickball last night :) It's a happy day for me when I get to play kickball and see my team. I took more pictures last night and this afternoon I will update ALL my blogs with the pictures I have taken for them so that this is not so bland. If kickball is a workout, I got one in for the week. NICE. I've been swamped lately and I read somewhere if you feel too tired to work out then you probably are. If you are running on less than 7 hours of sleep, your body does not benefit from the work out so the rest is more important than the work out. I've been fitting in random sets with hand weights all week but nothing big. NEXT WEEK I SWEAR!
breakfast 3 pancakes, glass of milk
snack apple
lunch Cliff bar and a banana
snack honey roasted peanuts
dinner 3 beers and a grilled cheese with tomato french fries and some chips, salsa and queso (we got our asses kicked in kickball so of course I had to indulge in food!)

dinner 3 beers and a grilled cheese with tomato french fries and some chips, salsa and queso (we got our asses kicked in kickball so of course I had to indulge in food!)

Working out v. NOT working out
My friend Ellen (and former boss!) just posted a great blog on working out- click here to read it. She, like me, is insanely busy and has noticed her workouts tapering off when she is working. But she also feels as though she has lost weight.
I on the otherhand, feel fatter. And to her proposition that because she is not working out she feels like she has lost weight, I propose this: SHE HAS. But not for a good reason, her muscle mass is decreasing because she has not been putting in her workouts which is why her body is craving the workout.
Now, if I could just use that as motivation, I would be good to go!

Cleaning...burns calories!
Cleaning apparently burns calories. But every site I find on this topic just tells me it does. No one tells me how or what things burn the most calories. I was too tired to work out so I am just assuming cleaning my apt will count as a workout. Misguided, I know, but I really needed that nap.

Would You Date A Guy With The Same Name?
So last night I was at a concert (what up Muse and U2? Great show!) and this guy hit on me. He was pretty cute- tallish, brown hair, dark eyes- and funny and outgoing. Sounds perfect right? Especially when you consider he was very definitely into me (judging from both my own opinion and those that were around me). He was from Knoxville which means, well, I wouldn't really do anything about it anyway but... he was the best prospect I've had in a long time.
WRONG.
There is one thing keeping me from pursuing this on another level and that is that we share the same name. SAME FIRST NAME. Now call me crazy, but if this did turn into something I think it would be very awkward to call my own name out as I orgasmed. Blah, blah, blah I could call him baby or maybe by his last name or whatever. And if we had the same last name I would have an issue as well (though if we got married that would certainly make things a lot easier on me). I don't care- we would share the same damn name. To me that is weird, I don't care if those crazy kids on facebook have the exact same name are getting married!

So, tell me your thoughts! Have you dated someone with the same name (first or last)? Was it weird? Did you have challenges? I am really counting on you guys to help me out with this!
U2 Concert
First, I swear I will include some pics tomorrow when I get some wireless going again (I will update all the posts with pics that are lacking!). Last night was AWESOME. Totally worth not working out...my friend Ashley won us tickets to see U2 (with Muse opening- they were cool too) at the GA Dome. It was so much fun. I felt really comfortable in my outfit (minus my muffin top- thank god the blazer covered it) and people must have been catching that vibe because a lot of people were stopping to talk to me. I also bumped into a few people I knew on the floor. I still feel bad for not having worked out this week yet but I think today will be the day!

Going to be a rough week!
This week (as Ashley and I are calling it: Rocktober) is hella busy. I'm not going to lie- working out is not on the top of my list. Today I am working overtime- taking a little break right now- and $20 an hour is too much to be ignored. I know, I know my health should come first and physical activity is good for me. But my allergies are killing me and I need the money so not today, buddies, not today. On the upside, I went to Walmart and picked up allergy meds and my Lisinopril. Remember how I said I was doing this for vanity reasons but also for health? Well, the health reasons are super important and should probably be shared. About two years ago I was diagnosed as boderline Type 2 diabetic. Which goes hand in hand with high blood pressure. A few months ago I was given the script for Lisinopril and I took it for two months before sliding off. But today, I made sure to pick it up. Weight gain goes hand in hand with both of these conditions so the more in shape I get and the more I watch my weight, the better I will feel. Wish me luck!

My First Time
Man, oh man, where would we be without our first time? Honestly, why would we even want to do it after that first time? Don't even pretend like it was good. Even with the passage of years, and faded edges, the memory still isn't your greatest sexual moment.
I was 19. A late bloomer compared to most of my friends- though not nearly as late as some of my others. It was February 17th and his name was The First. The First, in my opinion, was the cutest guy in Creswell dorm and I had been smitten with him since the first day of classes when he drunkenly stumbled down our hallway introducing himself to all the girls in 5D (and probably the rest of the dorm. Little did I know, he was...well, a womanizer).
The First had decided that night he was going to quit smoking and I was going to have to help distract him. What better way than sex? That was not planned, of course. We just sort of fell into it as these things generally happen. We had been friends for a little over a month as I would come sit outside and hang around with the smokers as they inhaled butt after butt and told dirty jokes and lies about everything from sex to drugs to rock 'n' roll. At midnight, The First crushed his last cigarette and walked away from the smokers table. We went inside and turned on MTV and just sat on his futon laughing and talking. As the night got later, we moved closer and suddenly he was tickling me (I am INSANELY ticklish though I try to pretend I am not). And just as suddenly I was semi-lying down and The First was staring at me like he had never seen me before. It was one of those moments women dream about: guy finally really LOOKS at girl and it is like he sees into her soul. Slowly, he bent to kiss me. And hours of kissing turned into everything else.
While I have blocked out the actual act, I do remember a few things.
1. His roommate was obviously gone and a few times I wondered if he would walk in on us and what he would do.
2. It was completely dark except for the glow of the TV.
3. MTV still played music videos at this point. Audioslave's new video for Like a Stone was playing for the 3 minutes of thrusting.
4. Afterward, The First stood up and with the glow of the tv behind him, looked like a young girl's fantasy of a Greek God.
5. The First grabbed a papertowel so I could clean up which might have been the most embarrassing moment of my life. Also, probably one of the sweetest.
Sometimes, I wonder what I was thinking. How had I come to the conclusion that he was the one? Why not Cole? Or Sam? Or any of the other guys who had come before him? And what of the things I remember made me continue to have sex with The First?

Wireless down...
Okay so the title has nothing to do with food except this blog is not as fun without pictures which are on my other laptop and cannot access the internet because I have no idea how to set my MAC up for anything other than wireless. Not only am I food and workout challenged, I'm also technologically a misfit.
Anyway, today was shopping day which I will get to as soon as I share my food diary for you!
breakfast My two friends Shannon and Chloe made plans to grab lunch and since I crashed at Shannon's last night, I tagged along. I am so glad I did because we went to FLYING BISCUIT! Flying Biscuit is absolutely amazing and has such a great vibe. Unfortunately, you always have to wait 30+ minutes for a table so you end up STARVING by the time food is served! Shannon loves their hummus so we started there. I was still on the fence about hummus but I tried it anyway- boy am I glad! It's Roasted Red Pepper Hummus with tortillas and feta cheese. YUM! I am going to start adding feta to the hummus I bought a week ago :) Shannon got an awesome looking salad while Chloe and I opted for breakfast all day (it was noon by the time we ate). I ordered the Piedmont Omelette which has chicken sausage, turkey bacon, sauteed onions and cheddar cheese. I got potatoes on the side and a wheat biscuit. One cup of coffee and a glass of water rounded out a delicious meal!
snack yogurt
dinner I skipped lunch today since I really had a brunch and was STUFFED all day. After finishing up some grocery shopping, I decided I wanted to stop and get Chipotle for dinner. I went with a salad and built my own with black beans (I'm trying to incorporate new things in my diet I swear!), cheese, chicken, onions and peppers, corn and pico de gallo with their honey cilantro dressing. IT WAS INCREDIBLE and very filling. I'm feeling good about my choices while I was there since normally I would have loaded up with a burrito of some sort!
Okay, on to the shopping list for this week (this sucks- I totally took a picture of the list too).

Ugh
I gained a whole pounde between yesterday morning and this morning simply from not working out. I know it isn't much but when you are struggling to lose it, every pound takes on enormous significance. Anyway, real quick, my food diary for yesterday!
breakfast a handful of cheerios. My allergies, which I was unaware I had, are really acting up so I was not feeling well yesterday morning. Suffice to say, food was the last thing on my mind.
lunch One of our vendors had a company cookout for us yesterday. Normally I would have had one of everything but yesterday I had a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, mayo and ketchup. Also, a fun pack bag of Doritos and ONE (count 'em, 1!) chocolate chip cookie.
snack Britt and I went to the movies and the place served REAL food and beer. We saw Love Happens which was actually really cute. We split chips and queso- which was delicious and I had one Coors Light.
dinner After the movie we hit up a place called Marlow's. The ribs and whiskey special sounded delicious but it was 10 pm so I opted for a salad. Britt ordered the Caesar salad while I picked the BLT Salad (click here for a pic!). What sold me was the artichoke hearts. Any time I go to a restaurant I order whatever has them because they are DELICIOUS! I also ordered a ShockTop beer because I had never had it and it was Friday night!

Nutrition and Cancer
So, obviously, I am working out to lose weight but for me it is not just a vanity issue (though my looks do play a big role!) it is also a health issue. While perusing the GA Cancer Specialists Website, I came across this discussion of nutrition and cancer:
Dear Doctor:
What type of food reduces your chances of cancer? If deleting red meat lowers your risk, do you recommend fish as a replacement?
Sincerely, Meat Lover
Dear Doctor:

Sincerely, Meat Lover
Dear Visitor:
I am glad that you are concerned about your health. Unfortunately, nothing is guaranteed, but it does pay to do everything we can to be as healthy as possible and take advantage of all early screenings. The American Institute of Cancer Research (AICR) released a second report in November 2007 with very specific guidelines to decrease the risk of cancer. Here they are:
- Be as lean as possible without becoming underweight.
- Be physically active for at least 30 minutes every day.
- Avoid sugary drinks. Limit consumption of energy-dense foods (particularly processed foods high in added sugar, or low in fiber, or high in fat).
- Eat more of a variety of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and legumes such as beans.
- Limit consumption of red meats ( such as beef, pork and lamb) and avoid processed meats.
- If consumed at all, limit alcoholic drinks to 2 for men and 1 for women a day.
- Limit consumption of salty foods and foods processed with salt (sodium).
- Don’t use supplements to protect against cancer.
I encourage you to read the information on the website www.aicr.org regarding the recommendations.
Limit consumption of cooked red meat to 18 oz. per week (no more mega rib eyes at your local steak house!!!), and avoid processed meats such as hotdogs, bacon, sausage, lunchmeats, etc. In order to do this you may find yourself substituting chicken, fish, beans, and even nuts for some of the protein in your meals.
According to the Environmental Defense Fund, these fish are also safe to eat at least once per week: anchovies, clams, king crab (US), snow crab, Pacific cod, crawfish,Atlantic herring (US/Canada), spiny lobster (US/Baja/Australia), Atlantic mackerel, blue mussels, farmed oysters, wild Alaskan salmon, sardines, farmed scallops, shrimp (US/Canada), squid, tilapia (US/Central America), farmed rainbow trout. More information can be found at www.environmentaldefense.org
In health,

Kickball!!!
Hey guys, as usual- thursdays will be light as its past my bed time :)
breakfast cheerios with skim milk
snack coffee, handful of cheerios
lunch PB&J on wheat with extra fiber, snack pack
dinner Chloe convinced me Chick fil a would be a great idea. I can never go there and not get fries! Ughh...but I got an 8 pack chicken nugget and fries with lemonade
dessert two miller lites
So I had kickball tonight and I took pics which I will post at a later date. Suffice to say, we lost but we had a great time and kept the game close with the number one team in the league. My team is tons of fun and they don't take themselves too seriously which I like. I also ran a 4 mile loop before kickball to get some cardio in. Speaking of which I am looking for some great tunes to motivate my workout. I prefer hip-hop, pop and rap for my cardio and rock and country for my weight lifting. You know when you lift weights you want something that makes you feel like ripping someone's head off! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

These are the original Twelve Steps as published by Alcoholics Anonymous:
- We admitted we were powerless over alcohol—that our lives had become unmanageable.
- Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
- Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
- Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
- Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
- Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
- Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
- Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
- Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
- Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
- Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His Will for us and the power to carry that out.
- Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

I don't even know what is going on anymore. Traffic sucks. I'm never going to make it home. My happy drunk turned to angry bitter drunk. Congrats chloe. I love you all.
P.S. I may (I don't know the odds) get box seats for LSU. Eat that Timbo. Tiny. Ninja strikes again (maybe and most hopefully)
