Oh yes, this is Danica.....changing her oil!

Something New...

...is happening!!!

I am turning into a girl! Doing my nails every week, dressing like a female instead of a tomboy, things like that.

Apparently I am doing something right, I feel better and Randy actually likes it. Who knew???? I don't know if I am going to go so far as to wear a dress unless I have too, but these changes could be good.

I've changed my workout routine again, so if you are interested in knowing what it is, let me know and I'll post it.

O.J.....

Shmo.J.

He sucks!

I watched Mark Furhman rip on him this morning on Fox News, stating "He is dumber than rocks." Amen!

Dude! WE KNOW YOU DID IT!! THE WORLD DOES NOT NEED YOU TO WRITE A BOOK TO KNOW THAT!

Ass.

It's Hump Day....

...so that means treat day at work. Every Wednesday someone brings treats, whether it's donuts, cookies, bagels, home cooking, whatever.


It's the best day of the week (other than Friday of course!)

One Thing I F-Ing Hate....

...is DRAMA!! I'm 28 years old, and I think I have a relatively good head on my shoulders. So why are people insistent on drama?

I'm not friends with very many girls, because well, we are really caddy.

And sometimes that comes out strong. In my experience, sometimes when you are honest, you regret it, and immediately realize that sometimes it's best to either lie or ignore the whole situation. There's not much else to do when you already have apologized, and yet people still tell you that you're wrong.

This is why I hang out with boys...they don't give a shit one way or the other.

I Don't Understand This Obsession....

....With the Playboy Bunny symbol!! I am completely and utterly perplexed upon my obsession with it. Everytime I see it, I get this feeling that I HAVE TO HAVE the item that it is on. It makes me feel sexy and fun and happy, and all those positive warm and fuzzy feelings. Hmmmm......Randy tells me that he just doesn't understand it, and you know what? I am right there with him. :-)

By Popular Demand....

.....here is my workout. I switch it up every 3 or 4 weeks (I get bored otherwise), but here is what I am doing right now. I am using 8 or 10 pound weights for these (remember I am the size of a 13 year old, :-), so I can only lift so much). I also like to occasionally use the machines in the weight room for my legs.


Sunday-Off
Monday: 3 Sets of 8 of each exercise (use NO less than 5 pound weights when required) —
Pushups
Bicep Curls (weights)-Standing up straight, keep your elbows at your sides and hold a pair of dumbells at hip levels. Curl the dumbbells up to shoulder height and slowly return them to the starting position. Make sure when you hold the dumbbells that the palm of your hands are facing your body.
Tricep Kickbacks (weights)-Place your left knee and left hand on a bench or chair. Keep your left arm fully extended and your back straight. Let them dumbell hang in your right hand. Bring your upper arm up in close to your body and point your elbow up as high as possible. Fully extend your arm backwards. Don’t swing the weight. Never let your elbow drop lower than your shoulder. Lower the weight back to the starting position. Do all reps on one side before switching to the other.
Standing Dumbell Lateral Shoulder Raise (weights)-Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your knees slightly bent. Maintaining a slight bend in your elbows at all times, hold the dumbells at hip level. Slowly raise the dumbbells up and out to your sides until our upper arms are paralell to the floor.
Standing Dumbell Side Shoulder Raise (Weights)-Keep the same stance as with the lateral raise. Maintaining a slight bend in your elbows at all times, hold the dumbbells at hip level. Slowly raise the dumbbells keeping your arms extended out in front of you. Lower the weight back to the starting position.
One-Armed Rear Deltoid Row (weights)-Stand with feet wider than your shoulders. Bend your knees and hips into a semi-squat position, keeping your weight over your heels. Place your right hand on the top of your thigh; hold the weight in your left hand, arm extended out towards the floor in front of you. Contract the backs of your shoulders and pull your elbow back and out to the side until it’s bent at 90 degrees (your elbow only, not the entire arm). Slowly extend your arm back out towards the floor in front of you. Do all reps on one side before switching to the other.
Overhead Shoulder Press (weights)-Stand straight, with knees slightly bent and feet hip distance apart. Keep your shoulders even, hold weights at shoulder height with your palms facing forward. Slowly and evenly lift both arms upright past your ears above your head to a full arm extension. Evenly and slowly lower both arms to the starting position. Be careful to not arch your back.
Squat Backs-Stand straight, feet shoulder width apart. Stick our your butt and bend your knees until your thighs are almost parallel to the floor. Imagine that a chair is behind you and you are trying to sit on it. Straighten your legs and repeat.
Lunges (weights)-With a weight in each hand, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Step forward with your right leg, taking a step that is slightly larger than normal. Press the front of your left foor on the ground and use it to keep your balance. Brace your abs and slowly lower your body until your right thigh is parallel to the floor. Keep your upper body upright and your lower back flat. Push through your glutes and quads to return to the upright position. Perform all repetitions on one side, then switch to the other.
Donkey Kicks-Get down on your hands and knees, keeping your back flat and parallel to the floor. Extend your right leg behind your body, up towards the ceiling—be sure to kick your foot up, not just back. Keeping your foot flexed, bounce it up and down for eight counts. Lower your leg when done and swicth to the other side.
Calf Raises (weights)-Holding a dumbbell in your right hand, grasp onto the back of a chair with your left. Lift your left foot behind you until it is even with your right knee. Rise up onto your toes, be sure to keep your back straight. Hold the dumbbell on the same side as the calf muscle being worked to keep the resistance directly over the muscle.
Lifting Crunches-With hands behind your head, lay flat on your back with your knees bent. Contracting your abs, lift your shoulders up at the same time as your hips towards to ceiling. Lower both back down to the ground. Repeat for 12 reps.
Leg Crunches-Lay flat on your back with your knees bent and your hands flat on the floor next to you. While contracting your abs, bring your knees back towards your face. Slowly lower them back to the ground. Repeat for 12 reps.

It's Almost Time...

...for my favorite holiday! True, it's still a month away, but you can never start planning Halloween too early. The costume has been found, and now it's just a matter of where to go, and who's going to go with me!!!
