4.20.09 - mcfaddens show

this place is fucken awesome - and the show was TOO.

look at my fine man, and early adopted during "peace and security".

photo definetly stolen from facebook (THANKS!)

this show rocked as it was one of the busiest day of boston (marathon monday!) our happy 420 show was off-the-hook & am looking forward to doing more shows at this same place in fanniel hall. i met alot more new loud neighborz family and friends - and loved their set as well. green grass revival brought the noise up and jammed with their band in the beggining with j-smokes flying all over the keys. team RL & Sauce brought it hard & we tried two new songs "transitions" and "when i breathe" that both got the crowd moving and brought alot of energy to the place.

thanks to all who came out (and will come out to future shows!)!

30 day shred - day 30

well, well, well - i am offically someone who works out! 

over these past 30 days, i dont think that i dropped 30 pounds, but i did change a seroius life habit and am stronger & leaner than ive been in a long time! i dont have a scale, but my guess is by how my clothes fit - that i dropped between 5 and 7 pounds. im not even really concerned about my weight really - just the feeling of a stronger body was my goal in the first place.

over these past 30 days, i didn't miss a week without working out. i did have some slacking weeks - only fitting 1 or 2 days of 20 minutes in the morning. but at times, i even impressed myself with one week getting up for 5 out of 7 mornings to sweat my ass of with jillian. 

I FEEL GREAT. and am looking forward to working harder now that i know that i can actually do an entire series of workouts. jillian was a little obnoixus - but thats what i really needed to litterally get my ass back in shape. all of the workouts were challenging and accomplishing - and feel like levels 1 and 3 were my absolute favorite ones on the DVD. not a fan of all the jumping, but i pounded through (and hopefully woke my neighbor downstairs). like i said, i feel solid, and was never more excited to put on my spring clothes from last year that actually fit!

i started thinking about getting another tape this morning - which i think that i will do once i get absoutely bored with this one. i also started thinking about running again this morning - and besides the fact that it scares the hell of me that im even thinking of doing it again - i really DO think i can! 

ill keep updating with my excercising adventures - especially as the spring rolls in. and last but not least, i would fully FULLY recommend the 30 day shred to anyone who feels like they need to get motivated and work out again. it definetly worked for me!

new kicks!

[sigh.]

i feel like all of my money is going to student loans - and or the bills that i already pay a month [which thankfully isn't too many]. i decided to splurge on myself the other day and found this awesome deal on css -girls for these adorable vans slip ons. i had a pair a few years ago [2005 i believe] and remember them being super comfortable shoes. and with spring on its way it - i know im going to need a pair of those shoes that you are my go-to, colorful, walkin kicks!


they should be here by thursday - BUT im hoping sooner!!!
