Just something real quick.....
It's back to the daily grind as the long weekend holiday is over.
I want to share a song that I truly love. It is beautiful and deep. If you watched American Idol then I'm sure you remember this performance from Reeve Carney (Peter Parker,Spiderman Broadway show, Bono and the Edge. Bono by far has such a gorgeous voice and then when I hear Reeve sing..wow. I am very lucky I got to see this production last month if you recall my blog and to hear his voice in person is truly amazing. I love this song and wanted to share it with you.

Happy Memorial Weekend Everyone!!!!!!
We salute the men and women who served to protect our country and gave all for our freedom.
As a tradition to celebrate the long holiday weekend, I'm sure a lot of you will be chowing down on cheeseburgers, hot dogs, potato salad and whatever else rocks your boat. As for me well I will just enjoy a turkey breast burger with romaine lettuce as my buns...doesn't that just make your mouth melt. :) It sure does mine lol. The main gym is closed for the whole weekend. I think even Monday. Lucky for me I have a 24 hour Anytime Fitness pass. Should be a nice weekend especially in Indy. We got the big parade today in Indy and you know who is trying to get in with all these people. I have a lot of practicing to do this weekend. Since now FIBO now is canceled it opens the door for me to do other things. I will let you all know that in do time. I am still going to be training intense as I may put in for a invite to the ahhhhnold :). Now that would be a great comeback of comebacks. Dont you think....I know I do

Start Your Engines
We have the Indianapolis Colts, Pacers, and then one of the most prized events ever with so much history the one and only the Indy 500. I'm sure you have seen a few limited edition orange Camaros with the Indy 500 on them. :) Here in town I've seen a white convertible Camaro pace car driving around :) If your in Indianapolis be sure to check out the festivities before the big race on Sunday.
It's going to be hot next week and I have been wanting to go swimming and get some sun. One of the things I love about cruising lots of water and sun.. I am curious about where are the best swimming pools to go are in Terre Haute as my place has a decent pool but its not big enough as the pool gets packed. Theres ISU
pool (indoor) which is nice cause they also have jacuzzis :) I'm thinking of going in there today actually. I want an outside pool where I can get sun too. Picky aren't I lol. We have the little fair in town at the park called Banks of the Wabash. Fair food is so healthy and so nutritious for your buns. I remember going to Holiday World in Santa Claus, Indiana. Thats right Santa Claus (the city) Indiana. In Florida we have Christmas, FL where its Christmas 365 days a year. In Santa Claus its themed all Santa Claus stuff. So get your camera out. Holiday World has this ride which you see at fairs called the scrambler hence the name. I went on and half way through the ride......I was done. Consider me scrambled as it scrambles your brain and body. I was done for the rest of the day. It was aweful and I can't stand that ride lol.
Enough of me rambling let me get to what I really want to say here. I have some bad news. FIBO has been officially canceled. If you recall this is the show I was going to make my comeback. So now the only shows for the rest of the year are 3 which are all a week after eachother in June. Toronto, Tampa, and Hartford. Goodness!!!! Here is my take on that. As I have mentioned many times before we can't control what happens. I guess some may expect me to be upset?? Nah, no reason to be as it's not the end the world. I have been working very hard and will continue to do so in the gym. This little thing isn't going to rain on my parade. I will continue to stay in shape as I really like where I am at right now and it keeps getting better. Its the lightest I have been in a long time for a offseason. I might as well tell you I'm 135lbs right now......... Goodness I better not say that as some of you will believe it. ha ha. You know me, I just keep moving forward and training on, and staying in good shape. I'm getting a vision....Fat Tuesdays, Flip Flops, beaches, and sushi :) soon for me :)
Next Friday and Sunday I'll be volunteering at the Special Olympics here in Terre Haute. That Saturday we have our big Indianapolis show which I will be one of the many judges. It will be a long day Saturday due to the number of competitors we will have at the show. Should be fun. My sister will be in town the following week and hopefully we can get her down here again in July for the Indianapolis State show. She loves the shows and loves seeing the people pose. I thought about dragging her on stage with me lol or I may just come down and embarrass her. Doing my ghetto robot dance which is a really really really bad robot dance impression.
Later today will be a fun day as I got invited to go to a football and you know how I feel about that. Its a pretty big game as its the rival high schools battling it out. I think its the freshmen football team playing. It will be fun regardless, hopefully the weather will play nicely today.
Time to get my day started.

Close but no Cigar
I trained yesterday and ended it early as I was starving and needed to take a nap. I did do 315 deadlifting again a day ago and that was a piece of cake still for me at this state that I am at. I may try to do it it again later today. Just have to go by how I feel.
Last night I decided to take myself out for dinner as I was yearning for a juicy steak. I was going to go to J. Fords Black Angus but decided to go to a place I was very familiar with....Outback. LOL. I had a nice meal and it's funny as the waitresses knew me from previous times I have been there and some of them came up to me and introduced themselves. They were wondering why I was in a hurry this time as I usually take my time eating haha. Well I'm not ordering half the stuff I usually order either lol. When I got up to use the ladies room I noticed as well as everyone else in the restaurant it was storming very bad outside. I was wondering why the lights kept flicking. The one waitress told me this used to be a bank and they have a basement etc. So we would be safe just in case. For the time being I was stuck in the Outback. So there I was sipping my unsweet tea and surfing Ebay and face booking. Finally the storm calmed down a little and it was my chance to get out.
Later when I got to the movie theater it was easy getting a good seat as I arrived early. Dead center in the middle. They had two theaters set up for the showing. I can't even imagine the other theater but in the one I was in there were very few ladies and tons of males on top of that they were country boys as the majority all knew each other in the theater and some of the time they were tossing dip to each other across the theater. Then I had some guys sitting next to me wearing all camo hats lol. It was a young crowd and boy this crowd was funny. Okay now I'm going to give you my take on the movie. The Hangover 2 did go a little farther out there with the last one with certain scenes and you will understand what I mean by that when you see it. its things that back in my time were not allowed to be on movie scene. SO be prepared to watch a lot of weenis moments lol. Now I have to say being that I must have watched the original Hangover so many times that movie I will never get tired of. This on the other hand I was not impressed at all. It has a good amount of funny moments and of course again the RE-TARD or better known as Alan is always the fun one to watch as well as the china man Mr. Chow and this time Stu is a freaking riot. My ultimate favorite character is the little monkey with his Rolling Stone jacket who likes to smoke cigarettes, likes weenis, and is a drug dealer lol. I love him as he is too cute and now I want one minus the bad stuff. LOL. Part 2 is not as funny as the first one.
