I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter.  The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance.  Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters.

I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities.

Spent a half hour with Mr Yee.  He was in the desert doing Ab yoga in the sand.  With what he was wearing, I bet he was pretty uncomfortable.   I know, for different reasons than sand in my undies, I was.  I'm looking forward to doing yoga with my family in a couple weeks.  It's going to be good times :)

Weekly test

Pullups up 5 from last week (3 under PR)

Situps up 3 from last week (New PR 2 more than previous PR)

Pushups up 12 from last week (New PR 10 more than previous PR)

Everything went up.  Must be the steriods.  Or squid power.

so that makes 33 pull ups in a minute?

From montelepsy on Sun, Nov 30, 2008 at 15:11:39

Nope, five and twenty.

Now that you explained your "up/down" count, I understand it better. I still want to know how many you can do if you don't time them.

Are you experiencing any sudden outbursts of uncontrolable rage?

Congrats on the PR's :D Good stuff!

Man Alive!! I'm starting to think that you are some sort of freak of nature and not human at all!! Teach me ... PLEASE!!! My form still totally stinks on the chinup/pullup thing. I'm such a baby!

Really, the competition is over.

Hon,

I'll keep you wondering to keep the mystery in our marriage.

Burt,

Constantly. Especially when the store's out of my hair jelly.

Marion,

Thanks. Rest and recuperation do wonders :)

Teena,

I'd just be patient. Stick with the program and the results will come. I think the key is not to push it. Do negatives for the pullups.

Kelli,

I think people will step up. It'll be fun to see how much people improve, including you. Your former PT is going to drop his jaw when you tell him how you learned how to do pullups from the interweb.

WHAT???!!! you are coming home in a couple of weeks, what did I miss ... I am SOOOOOO happy. I thought so much about you and KFblonde this past weekend, feeling so thankful that Dean and I were together (and he was not somewhere dangerous). Yippeee!

From Burt on Mon, Dec 01, 2008 at 19:23:52

I don't want Fopp gosh darnit! I'm a Dapper Dan man!

From montelepsy on Mon, Dec 01, 2008 at 19:33:06

Thanks Bonnie, I'm lucky enough to be able to get home for the holidays. I'll be home for good in the summer :)

Burt,

I don't think there's a line from that movie I don't like.

My marathon is January 25, 2009.

Mike,

Where are you and Rachel? Neither of you have posted for a while now. Hope all is okay.

From kungfublonde on Thu, Dec 04, 2008 at 01:14:57

He's probably still doing pull ups :)

I asked him how many he can do if he goes until he is fatigued, instead of just doing them for 1 minute.

From montelepsy on Thu, Dec 04, 2008 at 17:02:35

Buried in work, me in proposals, Rachel in everything else :(

We appreciate your concern :)
