Baby I Like It

23 May

The way you move on the floor! Baby, I like it. 

Can you tell I am in a good mood and I have that song stuck in my head?

I wish every Monday was this good. It’s my last week of school! I’m not going to miss it. Seriously. High school for me was… okay for like one year and half. Other than that, it sucked. I’m just being blunt.

I also ran today with barely any knee pain. I can feel my right knee, but it isn’t painful like it has been in the past. That’s an improvement. I ran eleven miles. Holla! My average speed was 7:05/mile. Not bad I guess.

Then I came home to this:

Ignore the way I look. I just got done running so obviously I look so sexy. Haters gonna hate.

I’m going to begin reading it right after I finish my newest Chelsea Handler book. Thanks, Matt! (http://theathletesplate.com/)

As for the weight gain, I am back at square one. I don’t even understand. Well, I do understand. I am not that dim-witted. It’s just like, come on! I am trying here. I might as well go to a buffet and eat every morsel of food available. One could tell me to exercise less, but I actually love working out. I know, how weird.

In other news, John Rich won Celebrity Apprentice.

I knew it! I should have made a bet with someone. Yeah, I watch Celebrity Apprentice and, yes, I love Donald Trump. I wish he were still running for president.

In more news, I got a job. It’s basically moving senior citizens to retirement homes and what not. I’ll be packing boxes and being youthful. Hah. It’s a physical job so I won’t get bored rigid.

Now onto honorable eats:
Mushroom tart

Did your Monday start your week for a good start? 

Do you watch Celebrity Apprentice?

What song is stuck in your head lately?

    For your weight gaining quest you might try writing everything down to determine if you’re eating enough. This has worked for me. Congrats on the pain free 11 miler!

      That’s what I was thinking of.

    Today was actually one of the warmest days we had in weeks! I made sure to spend plenty of time outside because tomorrow is supposed to be 56…..ewww

    I’m glad to hear that you’re knee is feeling better. Just remember to take it slowly. If you notice ANY pain you could just end up setting yourself up for another round of an injury…not fun…

    Your dinners look amazing! I think I should stop by some time and you can cook for me! hehe!

    Yay for good moods! I can’t wait to be done with high school. I just got out for summer but I still have 2 more years.. eick.

    Well now thanks to you, that song is stuck in my head! Don’t worry though I like that song. 🙂

    Sorry about the weight gain woes!! I’m sure your body adapted to the higher cal amount, and you’ll just have to keep pushing though. You can do it 🙂

    Congrats on the job!!

    Dang girl! That red velvet cake and ice cream looks amazing!

    Have a fun summer! High school’s behind you and you have so much to look forward to, trust me.

    Um can you run 11 miles at a 7 minute pace for me please? That would be fabulous k, thanks. I’m glad your knee is feeling much better.

    Your job sounds so much fun.

    Wooo girl you’re so fast and no knee pain. Gotta love it! Read that Chelsea Handler book fast so you can let us know how “running on empty” is. I recognize the title and I could just go look it up, but I’d rather hear your honest review.
    Welp I had a song stuck in my head, but now all I got is “baby I like it” and it’s all your fault. Haha.

    Yeah for almost being done with school!

    And yeah for running with little knee pain!

    Glad to see you’re in a good mood! My Monday was great! Gaining weight was definitely a big challenge for me, but trust your body….it knows what it’s doing! It’s brave of you to even start heading in the right direction, you can do it! 🙂

    My Monday started kind of meh…I woke up at 6:45 instead of 6 for my first day of work. Didn’t have a whole lot of time to get ready without feeling like I had to rush.

    Not a Celebrity Apprentice watcher but I know who John Rich is!

    Barefoot Blue Jean Night by Jake Owen has been stuck in my head since last week when I listened to it about a million times while at work hehe.

    I love Celebrity Apprentice. Love it.
    And I was very glad that John Rich won.
    And I also really like Donald Trumph.
    I’d like to read his books.
    At least by not running for President, he can still do Celebrity Apprentice.

    I am so lost right now. I’m far older than you. But I’m on bedrest. For months. And I have to gain. I’m worried and confused. All the bloggers I see are young, or exercise while gaining. This is tough 😦

    You have the best eats!! I am in love with that pasta, pizza and dessert plate. Yumm! 😀 Don’t you just love “bulking”? 😉

    Mmm your food looks incredible! I don’t have a song stuck in my head right now but I totally know what you mean. Sometime I can’t go to bed because I keep singing a song!

    Hooray for good moods! Love the smile. 😀 Is that red velvet, I see? Mmmmmmm..

    My sister recently saw Chelsea Handler in NYC…..neat eh?

    I didnt watch celeb apprentice…..but I did tune into the Bachelorette yesterday and the biggest loser today! Ok, the biggest loser was insane!! Such amazing and inspiring stories.

    Also, next season….Anna Kournikova is going to be a trainer…..wonder how that will turn out!!

    You are super fast! 😮 Glad youre in a good mood! 🙂 Ugh… I still have one year of high school but at least I’m homeschooled now so that makes it not so bad.

    That last picture almost has me drooling…

    My subscriptions didn’t work for a few days! Aaaarrrgghhhh….Looks like you snuck in a couple of posts on me!

    The pics of the pizza had me licking my monitor.

    Hey girl, nice job on your eleven miler 🙂 Glad your knee is feeling better. The song stuck in my head is “Man Down” by Rihanna. I keep singing “rum-pum-pum-pum rum-pum-pum-pum” in my head!
