Flashback Friday

Today's flashback isn't really all that random. But it's my blog and I can do what I want to. Neeeener neener neener...

Every Tuesday night Chag from Cynical Dad does his famous Nameless Twitter Radio Show and last weeks theme was breakup songs. My pick for the night was a Morrissey song because seriously, is there anyone else who can sing a break up song better than Morrissey? But since it's no secret that I am a huge cheeseball, hair band loving, wanna be rocker, I tweeted that my runner up pick was Skid Row's "I Remember You." Morrissey or Skid Row. Which one do you think Chag played? Umm yeah. I was punked. He called me out on my hair band loving geekness and played "I Remember You." Chag, you are my hero. Seriously. You picked Skid Row over Morrissey. I bow to your greatness.

If the Buzz Kills wouldn't have been sleeping I would have really rocked out last Tuesday to a little Sebastion Bach but being the good mother I am, I let them sleep and quietly watched the YouTube video and thought about that rat bastard who broke up with me in 1993. Ahh the memories. Isn't that right Seriously Daddy?

So to make up for missing the opportunity to rock out Tuesday night while dancing around the house in my wifebeater and boxers, I turned my iPod up and blew out my eardrums with a little hair band rock while running on that beast of a treadmill the following day.

I did however break out the Morrissey Tuesday night. Staying up way too late listening to that voice from God isn't always a bad thing. Morrissey's voice could melt steel, it's smooth like buddah. And I'm all about spreadin' the buddah today...

Happy Friday and dance, people, dance. Even if it is in your boxers and wifebeater alone in your house at night...

If you are here checking in on the Club Half As Small As You front...

I lost 2.6 pounds this week, per the scale at my Weight Watchers meeting. So you know that's official. Then I came home and had a beer and some nachos. Dammit. Back to the grind tomorrow. I am halfway to where I want to be for Doomsday, otherwise known as the TRIATHLON. I am seriously insane. Send medication.

Did you seriously just write that you drank BEER and ate NACHOS?!? Did you think I wouldn't be reading?

Congrats on the weight loss so far, I bet it felt good to see it on an official scale. My scale gives me ten different numbers ten different times, it's never precise. I think I'm going to rock out to some Morrissey tomorrow...

Just so ya know, I tried dancing around here in my boxers and wife-beater, but HR made me put my clothes back on. Something about appropriate workplace attire.

Congrats on the additional weight drop. Keep on working it!

I dance around the house in a wife beater and boxer shorts all the time, only I like to dance to the tune of Maroon 5 or Rhianna.
Congrats on the weight loss! That's awesome, I hope things continue to go well for you!

Joe - I'm thinking your wife is going to be pretty pissed if you get fired for dancing around in your boxers at work. You might want to rethink that one, even if HR is willing to tolerate it...

Sammanthia - Rock on sista friend!

Hmmm...I'm more of a NIN girl myself. Just screaming works on your abs you know! Congrats on the weight loss. And hey, beer doesn't have "that" many calories in it...at least that's what I keep telling myself!

Yeah, I was terrified when I saw the beer and nachos line too. I kept thinking that Casey's gonna go ballistic on you. But you lost weight? You suck. Not really, but sorta.

Was my Smith's request at least a small consolation to you? :)

Or, well, I guess I shouldn't make that a smiley face for the gloomy (but wonderful) Smiths!

Congrats on the weight loss! That's awesome. So are nachos. I won't tell. :)

So, any big fitness plans for the weekend? Make me proud. I think we're going to be KIDLESS tomorrow night so sitting on the couch might be our workout. I'm going to try to walk/run in the morning. You should too!

CelloBella said...

I'm really impressed - that's more than a kilo!

And doing a triathlon - that's hard core.

Standing back in awe.

Heather - Love me some NIN. I saw them live in 1992. My three year old will run around and say "My heads in a hole..."

Jen - I know. I thought, ooh Casey is going to kick my ass. It was just payback for the bread bowl cheese soup thing she ate. I was good today. Promise.

FADKOG - I couldn't believe when I saw your request. I thought there was no way anyone would pick The Smiths. Now, I stalk you...

Casey - Enjoy your kidless, exerciseless night. Those are hard to come by, you totally get a pass. It's 40 and raining here, I'm thinking I have a date with the treadmill tomorrow afternoon.

Seriously Brenda said...

CelloBella - Thank you! I once was pretty athletic and sort of lost myself once I became a mom. Now that my kids are out of the newborn stage, I have more time to try and get back what I lost. I'll be stopping by your blog this weekend to check up on club HASAY...
