Seeing as how my birthday is on Thursday, I thought I would take some birthday photos.

Last week was pretty good. I have no complaints. Yesterday, Incog and I went out to his dad’s house, and then headed over to Promenade. I picked up a new hat, a new shirt and some luggage for my AZ trip from the Store. Super Cute stuff, I tell you…

Anyhow, you guys know this is the GRE week…so i probably wont post before my Birthday *Thursday*.
But I love you guys..keep me in your prayers.

August 21st, 2005 Don’t TOUCH my… 13 Comments

Welp, it’s been an interesting past few days…my apologies for not being able to blog..so much is going on….In the span of two weeks, I decided to go ahead and launch my clothing line again, and then decided to hold off …AGAIN. Shit ain’t easy….no one ever said it was….but, I need to be careful…..take things step by step and make sure I have a Business Plan outlined. Did you know that 90% of all start-ups fail because they dont have a Business plan? Yep….it’s fact. I had a plan when I started The Cute Group….but that was four years ago…and We’re still holding strong…..*web design, graphic design, programming, scripting, photography, and hosting for those that didnt know* ……and dont try to call the 1877 number to “say what’s up”…that’s not cute…:thumbsdown:….shit costs…*giggle*…that wasnt for the homies…that was for the select few who get here through BlackCuties.com.

Anyhow, this past Saturday was my daddy’s birthday *RIP*, so Incog and i decided to head to the beach and walk Promenade….after that, we decided to catch Four Brothers :thumbsup: and Red Eye :thumbsdown: . And today…I went to the gym….which leads me to my topic of the day….:typing:

As i walked in to the gym, i was greeted by staff who now know me as “CE” since one of them decided to play detective and look me up on the internet…*waving*…:grouphug:…I like Sunday training sessions because it means there will be less people there and it’s a lot quieter…..:thumbsup:

Anyhow, I walked over to the admin office, said hello to everyone, and asked my trainer where he wanted me to start. And of course, he said Cardio….WOO HOO! :duh: So i walked out of the office and over to the set of *almost empty* treadmills. There was one being occupied by a black man who was bopping his head something vicious…if it wasnt Ludacris :thumbsup:, it was probably 50 cent :thumbsdown: blaring in his headset. The machine i chose was on the end…away from the black man who was now starting to hum….It was a quiet little spot…..i liked it…I added some incline, set my speed to a low 2 and prepared to get my heartrate up…and then all of a sudden a black man comes up behind me…he has a thick accent…very definitive…..

Man: 2, 4, 24…we’re gonna get you going…2 minutes walk, 4 minutes jog, 24 minutes run……

Me: *turning around thinking “Is this man talking to ME?”*

Man: Yep….2,4,24

Me: Me?

Man: Yep….2,4,24…come on…do it…let’s go…

Me: Are you serious? *looking around for my trainer who I could see through the huge glass windowed office*

Man: Sure am….come on……let’s go….

Me: *looking at my panel…* I just got here…..*looking at his shirt franticly to see if it had a Bally’s Logo*

Man: So? We’re gonna do it…..this is how i get to 26 miles a day….I stay in shape…come on….

Me: *thinking - “maybe if i just ignore him” *

Man: *reaches across the two metal bars that seperated my machine from his*:crowded:

Me: Is he really gonna…..:pissed:

Man: *increases the incline*

Me: He cant really be….:pissed:

Man: *increases the speed*

Me: HOLD UP….*flies backwards off the machine*…

At this point…..my trainer comes out and asks me if i’m okay….I look at him like “NIGGA WHERE WERE YOU??” Meanwhile, the crazy black man increases his OWN speed to sprint….:wtf:

Me: I’M DONE…NEXT MACHINE, PLEASE….I’M COOL….*shaking hand and head - thinking :wtf: just happened here??*

So here i sit…….tired as hell…..a little skinnier *did i mention my jeans fit HELLA lose now?* and ready to start studying for the GRE. ….help me pass. :pray: I got two months….I should have been studying before…but of course, the concentration wasnt there…..

Things are still good at the JOB praise ..and I will STILL be doing the CaliBlogger website as soon as we get some cool domain name ideas and enough pull…cause I aint about BSin a domain name or putting together a website that wont be plugged or used. If you want it….ya gotta let me know.

It’s the weekly wrap up for me….finally getting things the way I want them to be…

*sigh*….i Love my new job….it’s everything that I thought it would be….Challenging, Fun, Exciting…all rolled into one. I know that it’s going to prepare me for the GRE and for the Series 7 if I decide to go that route. The people are great, and the environment that I’ve always dreamed of. :surprised: When the office moves even closer to our house, things will be even better…:cloud9:..everyone at work is really excited for the move as EVERYONE *including the CEO* lives in Northridge.

Last night, me and incog chilled…..he made Fetuccini Alfredo….MAN was it TASTY. :chat: This morning, I had to get up kind of early in order to finish up some site requests and modifications. NO complaints…but I’m looking forward to this evening…..

I met up with my Trainer this afternoon to go over my expectations and to pay all those wonderful Personal Trainer fees. He’s going to be helping me to get to where I need to be so that I can start doing Print again….that’sthe plan….:shhh: . I believe tonight, me and incog will be going out to to walk around and eat. YAY for relaxation. :uhh:

Even though I love my job, I always dread mondays….:: . But I gotta do what I gotta do…I was able to burn MH - Naked this morning, so that I can have “drive to work” music. I havent burned a CD in FOREVER. , I think the last one was Amerie…lol….and I un even listen to THAT. :duh:

Anyways, Kisses and Hugs ya’ll….. I hope you have a Blessed Weekend….I’m sure I’ll be logging in tomorrow to tell you how my trainer tried to kill me…:hot:..lol…
