Spin Class

NOT my passion. I did this class again after a year... All I can say is that it's a good thing there's no action going on for me. It's been a couple of days and STILL the tenderness remains in the nether regions. I've been told that if you continue to go, the pain subsides and never returns, but what, I ask you, is the inspiration to return? I swear I used a mirror to see if there is actual bruising (there isn't). I think if you are going to endure pain of this nature, there better be outside evidence!

Calorie Burn: 600

Monday at noon... yes, I'll be there again.

Guess I'm a glutton for punishment.

Update

Well, still no passions to report... but hopefully some passion in my future. :) Just keeding... sort of.

Me. What I have been doing is learning about myself. Who I am, what I love, what I will NOT accept and what I will not do any longer. So here it is, my new, improved, self inventory (no apologies):

I am smart and a valuable addition to any team.
I love making people laugh.
I love the look on peoples faces when I tell a funny story at a party and they are REALLY listening.
I think my true beauty lies within me.
I am not perfect, but I am perfectly ok with that.
I love to eat. I love dinner and dessert equally.
I love to drink wine with said food.
But for someone that truely loves food as I do, I'm actually pretty picky and have a lot of "food rules"
I exercise regularly. It's a priority. I hate to exercise.
I try not to sweat - but feel that I do it more than most. Gross.
I get great joy from the happiness of my friends and family.
I love the feeling of butterflies in my tummy... I didn't even remember what they felt like until recently.
Turns out that I get the embarrassed red face pretty easily when discussing my feelings.
I have very little sense of adventure but I always force myself to try new things when the opportunity presents itself
I love to read and write but when you talk numbers, my brain just turns itself off.
I like pretty much any kind of music and most movies.
I'm easily amused and pretty easy to please... this might prove to be a fault because I'm afraid I'll settle for less than I deserve.
I love to plan and organize things. It's weird. I know.
Oliver is my dog. I love him more than anything in this world. You all better hope he never dies. I won't recover. He has seen me through some seriously crappy times. He is the BEST.
I love to drive cars with manual transmissions. I think it gives me more POWER and control.
I really would love to hire a housekeeper... and a yard person... but until I'm rich, I do take great satisfaction in mowing and cleaning, and the immediate gratification they offer.
I love the feeling of independence I get when I try something and accomplish it without help. (has happened a lot recently)
I love to dance, but only with a partner. I think my true calling was to be a ballroom dancer.
I try to remember to thank God every day for all of my blessings before I start complaining about all of my trials.

I think that's it for now. It's a pretty complete list, but I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Signed, the new, improved, Tylee
